The Thurston Files

Hey—Ember here.
This blog started as a class project, but it kind of turned into… something else.
These are the posts I wrote during fourth grade. At first, I was just trying to keep track of the weird stuff happening at school and in the Nature Center. But then things got bigger. More serious. And, somehow, people started reading.
Now this collection is basically the reason my blog is (kinda) internet famous.
So if you’re just starting out, here’s where to begin:
📚 Chapters
- Chapter 1: So Apparently They’re Building a New School on Our Playground??
- Chapter 2: My History Assignment
- Chapter 3: Too Loud, Too Long, Too Close: Why I’m Worried About the New School
- Chapter 4: A Mouse, a Toilet, and a Party in the Woods
- Chapter 5: Halloween in the Nature Center
- Chapter 6: Waiting for the Ghost
- Chapter 7: Cracks in the Ice
- Chapter 8: A Project, a Partner, and a Map That Shouldn’t Exist
- Chapter 9: Lines in the Mud
- Chapter 10: The Dream at the Edge of the Pond
- Chapter 11: Her Name Was Clara
- Chapter 12: Voices We Weren’t Supposed to Hear
- Chapter 13: They Took It Down. We Brought It Back Stronger
- Chapter 14: Beneath the Frost, the Truth
- Chapter 15: Clara’s Story. Our Future.
- Chapter 16: The Heron and the Girl
- Epilogue: Summer at Freeman

Thanks for reading—and for believing me.
