The Dust Cloud, a personal narrative by Arshia Ramesh, 10

Post Published August 18, 2020 by Stone Soup Editors

The Dust Cloud Arshia Ramesh, 10 There was no possibility of taking a walk that day. The air quality from the Sahara Desert dust cloud was rated over 350 in Kansas. Which was twice as bad as it was last time. I feel like we are prisoners in our own home, not able to go out or open any doors and windows. We have not had a breath of fresh air in exactly one month and 27 days.

Post Published July 8, 2020 by Enni Harlan

In thinking back to when I was younger, I only have vague memories of a miniature TV we used to have. It was so small that if my dad stood in front of it, I could have sworn that you wouldn’t be able to see the TV behind him. In fact, I recall that it was even smaller than our computer (which isn’t very big). The quality was horrible too, but I never really noticed.

Future Jaz, 14 I hope the next time I see this it's me in highschool, but I just wanted to say that 8th grade was probably the best year of my life.
