I think that Mariah chose the gift she does for Lynn because she wanted to give Lynn something special, not just any regular present. I think that it's positively the right choice. I think it's the right choice because Lynn probably wouldn't want regular presents anyway, and Mariah,like I said earlier, would want to give her sister something special.

I think that Mariah made the right choice for Lynn. Most people would have liked it including me. I would have liked the gift because it was a surprise. It would have been fun to be suprised and see so many people that care for you and participated to help Lynn for her birthday party.It would have been fun.You wouldn't have knew it and Lynn must have had so much fun. It was also made by themselves. It would have been so special for anybody.

Mariah chose the gift she did for Lynn, because she wanted to give something special to Lynn, instead of some books, or cloths. Even though Lynn didn't want this, Mariah new that this gift was different, and that Lynn would like it. It was a smart, interesting, and loving choice to make. If I was in Mariah's situation I would make the same choice as she did.

Her decision was good because a party is always a lot of fun.If I were Lynn I would have wanted to have a party a lot more then a present .Mariah made a good choice for Lynn's party.

i think Mariah chose a good gift for Lynn because Lynn did not want anything on her birthday but just sit and rest in her bed all day. A party is a thousand times better than just no party and just presents. That is just my opinion.

I think Mariah gave the perfect present for Lynn. It was more of a suprise than any other present she could get her. Lynn was a special kind of girl and she deserves a special kind of present. The present wasn't store-bought which makes it even more special. The suprise showed her that people cared more for her. It seemed that Lynn really enjoyed the party. So I think that was a perfect gift for her.

What Mariah gave Lynn was great! If Mariah gave Lynn a party with no surprise it would still be good, but a party and a surprise is better. The surprise birthday party gift was great, because if Mariah just give Lynn a regular present like a book it wouldn't have been that special. Lynn can get a book or something Whenever she like like Christmas.Plus if Mariah just gives Lynn a simple gift it wouldn't be that memorable unlike a surprise birthday party. Lynn would hopefully remember this gift for the rest of her life

I think the gift Mariah gave to Lynn was great because the surprise party is so much better that a gift. I think it is better because a surprise party takes a lot of effort coordinating and the fact that someone took that responsibility shows that someone does care for you. Also parties are more memorable than presents so Lynn will definitely remember this gift. This is why I think that Mariah gift to Lynn was a wonderful choice.

I think Mariah chose the best gift for Lynn because if I had a surprise party I would be thankful for them. Also, a surprise party is way better than a gift. It was very grateful of Mariah to give Lynn such a great gift. Lynn was very happy too that she got such a great party. I think Mariah is a very nice person.

I think the gift that Mariah gave was great,because it was a lot more special than some books or clothes. A surprise part is way more fun, festive and greater than a b-day present. It really shows how kind, generous and responsible Mariah is. this was a memorable moment for Lynn. This why I think that Mariah made a good choice of picking a present.

I think the gift Mariah gave Lynn was nice.The reason I thought it was nice, because Lynn said that she did not want to anything for her birthday party, but Mariah was a good sister and planned a surprised party for her. Mariah was really generous. In the book it said that she had to do a lot of stuff to get ready, that shows how much she wanted to do for her sister. They tried to get her out of the house so she would not get surprised before the party. When Lynn suspected something they send her on a errant so they could finish decorating. This is why I thought the surprise birthday party was nice.

I think Mariah gave a good present to Lynn. It showed that she really cared, especially since it was a surprise and surprises take time to get ready for. You would have to make sure that you don't spill the beans and you would have to meet in secret if you were working with friends. Also, if the person you're surprising thinks you're up to something, you would have to think of good excuses so as it stays a surprise. This is why I think Mariah's gift was a good one compared to the items you buy at regular shops. You can't buy a surprise!

Mariah's gift for Lynn was the best because Mariah does not have money or something big to give to Lynn. Even though Mariah kind of screamed at Lynn, but i think it was tottaly worth it.

In the story Mariah Keeps Cool, I believe Mariah chooses the right gift for Lynn because Lynn will be able to hang out with her friends and remember the party for a long time. If she just got a gift, Lynn would be able to play with it, but then it would soon be forgotten. Giving Lynn the party shows Mariah cares about Lynn.

Alex said...

I think Mariah's gift was a great choice. It was a surprise and it showed that they cared about Lynn. I think that the surprise would really lift her spirits rather than just being bored in bed all day.

Amit said...

I think that Mariah chose a good present because Lynn did not know that she was going to get a party. It shows that they all really cared about Lynn.

Kevin said...

I think Mariah gave Lynn that gift because she thought Lynn would enjoy being surprised and be grateful for her. I think Mariah shouldn't have given Lynn a surprise party because she might not be prepared. Just imagine if your friends barge into your home throw a party for you. You miht not be ready.

I think Mariah did the right thing to surprise Lynn because surprises are fun. However, it might be shocking to find someone in your house trying to throw a party. Still, since Mariah was Lynn's sister, it wouldn't be so shocking, and I think it was better to have a party so that more people would be having fun.

Andrew said...

I believe Mariah gave the best present she could give Lynn. She showed that she cared about Lynn having a suprise party. It wasn't a regular present. It can't show wealth, it can only show love and kindness to her sister

Mariah did a good thing when she set up a suprise party for Lynn. She wouldn't be happy without a great present that involves lots of work on decorations. Sometimes you know the suprise party was going to happen and sometimes you don't. If someone ever ditained you from going in your house something is going on. So Mariah did a great thing to her freind because making a secret suprise celebration his hard at the guest of honors house.

i think that it was a good choice because most people would probably like the gift.I think that the surprise party is a good idea because if you tell the person their gifts before the party it would be very boring.

I think the gift that Mariah gives Lynn is good because a surprise party is always exciting because you don't know whats happening and then the next thing you know, there's a bunch of people shouting, "SURPRISE!"

emily said...

I thought it was the right choice because not only lynn likes helping the charity but it is also very nice to the people who are getting the clothes. in the end Lynn is happy with what she got bu Mariah was satisfied too.

Kristine said...

I think that she chose the gift because Lynn was probably working too hard on the Friendly five, but she's still happy. it's just that she needed something that could cheer her up on the hard work.

I think it's a good choice because most people would probably appreciate the gift. And also I think Lnnys hard work was worth it
