I CAN’T DECIDE…………………..
Both they are both so special in their own ways but I really liked that book it was really good, but so sad that they get separated its also amazing how Nick and Sue can draw such identical drawings it must be such fun joining up like that!

Elena, I think you should call your story A Lucky Twist. Then what could happen in the end is maybe he could lose the charm and then realise he was creating the luck all by himself. I hope your story goes far! It sounds GR8!!!!

I think I would go for Garnet. She’s caring, kind and hard working, and she makes sure everyone has a fair chance. Even when she makes new friends, she also reassures Ruby they are still the bestest friends ever!

Ruby is also one of my favourites. She’s quick and fiery, and she a fun and feisty person. She’s also very loyal. I really can’t decide which is my favourite, I like them both!!!
