My speech for the speech competition

My name is maddy today i would like to talk to about my favorite animal cats:

A group of cats can be referred to as a clowder or a glaring; a male cat is called a tom or tomcat (or a gib, if neutered); an unspayed female is called a queen, especially in a cat-breeding context; and a juvenile cat is referred to as a kitten.

My cat Mia: Mia is a tortoiseshell cat. The colors Mia has in her fur are black, beige, gray and white. 

Cat facts: Today there are 600 million house cats around the world. Cats mostly always land on their paws (feet). Cats like to chase birds, mice, rats and show them to their owners. Owning any pet is good for your heart. Cats in particular lower your stress level-possibly since they don’t require as much effort as dogs-and lower the amount of anxiety in your life. Petting a cat has a positive calming effect.

Types of cats: There are many different breeds of cats these are some breeds and some facts about the breeds.

Siberian cats: Siberian cats come from Russia. Siberian cats are an ancient breed. The first siberians arrived in the united states in 1990. Siberian cats come in all different colors the most popular colors are brown, red, black and white.The siberian cats eyes can be any color.

Tortoiseshell cats: Tortoiseshell cats have many different colors mixed together. To make there lovly coat.
Ginger cats: most ginger cats have orange, and white. Some ginger cats have yellow mixed in to.

Siamese cats: This smart loving animal is very playful. Siamese cats will grab pray the same way as a wildcat would.

Title: The Kingdom of Fantasy   

Author of the story: Geronimo Stilton

Author of the wide reading response: maddison howarth

Text type: Novel, fiction, fantasy  

Main character: Geronimo Stilton

Synops:  

In the story Geronimo stilton, never expected to find a magicly golden staircase in his attic. At the top of the staircase there is a magic land called the kingdom of fantasy. would you like to go to this land? Have you read any other Geronimo Stilton books?

Why I think the author chose the title:

Because the story is about the first adventure in the magic land of fantasy. A  land of fantasy, friends, fun, and adventure. A few messages from the book: Oh brave knight only you can save me. Please hurry. I am waiting for you.flying on the wings of fantasy. If you drink too much water you will disappear.

My favourite character is:

Geronimo Stilton, because he is the main character and the only mouse

in the story. He has amazing advenchers the kingdom of fantasy witch all start in the real world and then goes in his attic. Geronimo Stilton is not brave or courageous he is a complete scady mouse. Geronimo Stilton, goes on a mission to help Blossom the queen of the kingdom of fantasy. Geronimo Stilton has ginger fur.  

My least favourite character is:

The rainbow dragon that took him for the adventure and back home in the end of the story.

An interesting relationship in the text is:

 When Geronimo stilton almost got stuck in the kingdom of mermaids with the mermaid queen she tried to marry him.

A friendship in the story is:

When geronimo stilton meets scribblehopper.

2 examples of how I made connections to the author and story.

When he has the advencher in his dream, the same sort of  adventure I have in my dreams sometimes (not all the time).

I like how he said he’s afraid of his advenchers in the kingdom of fantasy but still goes on them.
