My favorite book is Estro Trot. It is a very good book it is about a turtle and a lady a man. He likes her and she does not really notes. Really good book. Atlanta
I read the book series "Gaurdians of Ga Hoole. I thought it was a really great series filled with action and suspense. There are thirteen books in the series. It is my favorite series.
" Bridge to Terabithia" is one of my favorite books. A boy named Jess tries to be the fastest runner in fifth grade. When Leslie comes, they become friends. It is a story about their friendship and what they do.
One of my favorite books," Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing" is mainly about Peter and his younger brother, Fudge. Fudge may seem good to other people, but never to Peter. Read about what Peter and his family do, and what Fudge does as a young kid of 2-3.
P.S. There's no limit on what Fudge can actually do!!!!!
" Because of Winn-Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo is a very good book. A girl named India Opal found a dog at a marketplace. After that, they have many "adventures." Although India Opal was new in town, she made many friends, but most of her friends are adults. One night, Winn-Dixie got "lost."
I read a good book called Nancy Drew and the Secret of Shadow Ranch. It's a good book because it's full of mysterious and scary feelings at the same time.
I think Princess Academy is a good book to read.A girl named Meg lives in a small village.She and her sister take care of her house.Her father is at work.One day she is apart from her family.With out her sister and father she and the village girls are on a test to be a princess.
I think A Taste of Blackberries is one of the best books I've ever read. Because it's heartbreaking yet full of lots of surprises. It's about two boys who have been best friends their whole life till one day one of them messes with a beehive and dies! Just like that.
The " Geronimo Stilton" series rocks! A mouse named Geronimo Stilton goes on a lot of adventures although he hates traveling VERY much. While owning The Rodent's Gazette, he is also the author of his best-selling books. Geronimo makes friends wherever he goes, so don't be surprised at how many friends he has. Family is also important to Geronimo.
I read the book Joe Jackson. I thought it was a great book about a baseball player and a kid who mets Joe one night. Joe Jackson was the kids favorite player.
I think Kate DiCamillo is a good author and you should look for her books, like; "The Tiger Rising" and "Tales of Desperaux". I'm just starting her book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane".
The last book that I've just read is called "Ginger Pye".It's a great story about a tiny puppy for a hard earned buck. He's in intelligent pup filled to the top with love, kindness, questioning thoughts, and fun until disaster strikes the book. It's a hard book to put down and a story you'll never forget. Read this book!
I think the Bailey school kids books rock.One of them is called "Elves don't wear hard hats"It is about four kids named Eddie,Melody,Liza and Howie. When they wished to have a new playground then they come it is a big truck it says Bells Construction company.They have to find out what the Construction people what their secret is. Do you think they are really Elves? book worm
the book choose your own adventure escape. I like it because it will say if you would like to go to save your freinds turn the page 36 our if you wanted to go to go after the treasure go to page 68.it is good BOOK!!!!! posted by firepaw
I think that "High school musical 2" you should read.It is about summer Troy , Gabriella,Sharpay and her brother Ryan and some of the other wildcats are trying to make summer fun for them.But Sharpay gets made that her brother is now one of the wildcats.Sharpay is trying to get Troy to like her more then Gabriella. Can the wildcats save their summer?
I liked Castaway of the Flying Dutchman, because it has a lot of clues you can solve . The final chapter is saddening but all in all it was a good book.
sincerely, Gimli P.S. If you're a musical fan and you're a big Drama fan Sweeney Todd the movie is coming out in a couple of weeks!!!
I recommend the book called The Tale of Desperaux. If you like adventure with a touch of romance, this book is right for you. It's about a mouse who does not fit in with the other mice, a rat named Roscuro who wants to see the light of the upstairs and a girl named Miggery Sow. You'll have to read the book to find out what happens to them.
I read a really good book called Henry and the Paper Route. It was about a boy who really wanted a paper route but you had to be eleven. He was only ten. he had to figure out what to do.
I just finished Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. I recommend it because so many things happen to a boy that has to survive all by himself after a plane crash in the middle of nowhere. Some parts got a little boring but most of it was exciting.
I think that"Marie Antoinette"it is about her life and childhood. She has no father so just a mother to look after her and her other sister she has sixteen sister's and a few brothers.I like this book because it tells about part of her life.who does she marry?what does she do in her life?She loves to ride horse. hope you read it.
The Secrets of Droon series is exciting and adventurous. Your mind gets stuck on it and you'll want to finish the book. There's majic, princesses, wizards, guards and EVIL. Kids fly on carpets, too. You'll love this book.
The book "The River Between Us" is a great book because it has history and a family's memories of 1861. It is abuot a Northern family and what happens when a rich Southren Girl and her slave come to live with them in Cairo, Illinois.In the end we find a lot of surprising information about the narrator's famly. I learened something about New Orleans free people of color and how well they were treated in the South. The ending has a twist.
A good book for dog lovers is "The Call of The Wild". It is a book about a dog named Buck who is a sled dog in Alaska. It is very good at making you not want to stop reading.
Read Spiderwick Chronicles it is a sweet series, it has fantasy and adenture. It will not take long to read one of them cause is a short book enjoy it.
After being arrested and almost executed, the magician and his wife hide in their home in the kindom of King Cladio,talking only to themselves and their only servant who hasn't fled, Fabrizio. One night the king's count comes to their door. But for what? They're not being arrested. In fact the king needs their help! But what for? What dangers lie befor them? A wonderful book of mystery and thrills with crafty characters and more.
I have read another book from the royal diaries It is called "Anastasia the last grand duchess" She has a brother,some sisters named Olga,Tatiana,Marie her brother's name is Alexei.she has a mom and dad. In her time they have a war. Her family is moving from one place to another.During the war Her mom and Olga and Tatiana they are training to be nurses.Hope you read it. Bookworm
During MEA I read a book called "Witch Switch" the reason I liked this book because it is getting closer too Halloween and it is a Halloween book. It is part of a series called Katie Kazoo Switcheroo. My favorite part is when she turns into a cat and she gets switched in too her self well the cat was drinking water. And then she goes too the park and Suzanne asks her were her green face paint went she says she put her face in a bucket.
My favorite book is "How to Speak Dragonese" by Hiccup Horredous Haddock the 3rd. I like because it's fiction and some of it is real like the Vikings. Hiccup is going to be a king, but everyone thinks he is really stupid. Then he gets kidnapped with one of his friends. Then he comes up with a great plan and he is a hero! by Dr. FuFu
I just finished a book called Nancy Drew and The Clue Crew Sleepover Sleuths.I recommend this book if you like mystery or adventure.Nancy is very funny and likes to solve mysteries with her friends. It's a great series for girls.
I recommend the book "The Little Prince". It's a great book about a prince that has traveled from another planet. The narrator and the prince become friends and it changes their lives forever. Read this book!
Gregor the Overlander is a great book. I'ts about Gregor and his sister, Boots, and they fall through a passageway to the Underland and figure out that they have to save the Underlanders.
I like the book series "Redwall". The book I'm recomending is the first book in the series. It is called "Redwall". There are over 16 books in all.
All of the characters in the books are woodland creatures. These animals can all speak, walk on two legs and have most of characteristics of humans.The evil animmls are stoats,weasels,ferrets,foxes and rats. The good animals are hares, squirrels, bagers, moles, otters, hedgehogs and mice.
This story is about an evil rat, Cloony, and his hoard who threatens Redwall Abby and its creatures. Now it is time for Mathais the Warrior (a mouse) to stand up for Redwall!
I think that the Disney fairy book's are good ones. The one I am reading is called "Vidia and the fairy crown." In that book they think that Vidia took the missing crown. She has to prove that she did not take it.Read it to find out what happen's.
I just read the book Gulliver's travels. It is about a man who travels to diffrent lands. One of the voyages he went on was to the land of Lilliput. The people that live are only three inches tall! Then he voyages to the land of Brobdingnag,land of giants! And he still travels on! To the land of Laptua the floating city. HE STILL TRAVELS ON! But I will keep that a secret. So you can find that out for yourself.
I recommend the book "kira kira". It's a great book about two japenese girls that are sisters and are very close to eachother. But then their family moves from Iowa to Georgia and it's hard for their family to fit in. In Iowa, Lynn gets exetremely sick and Katie has to remind her family that their is still hope. Read this book!
I read a great book this month. It was called White Fang, it is about a wolf's/dog's life in the wilderness and with humans. It had alot of action in it.
I think that "Magic by the lake" is a good book because it is another story from "Half magic"it is about four kids named Jane,Mark,Katharine and Martha.They are on a summer trip and they go to a lake they swim and play in the sand.But one day they meet a turtle who is magic.He tells them to look out to the lake and they see people,dolls and lots more. Hope you read it. Bookworm
I love reading the book "10 Minutes Till Bedtime" to little kids. It is by Peggy Rathmann. She also wrote the book "Officer Buckle and Gloria", which is a Caldecott winner. 10 Minutes Till Bedtime is about a boy,his hamster,a hamster family with 10 hamster kids, and tons of hamster tourists coming to the boy's house.

P.S. The Edina High school musical starts tonight. KJELL'S sister is the girl who sings somewhere!
The Secrets of Droon series is a great fantasy series of books that leads you to another world. The last book Adventure to the Volcano Place led to Sparr's Volcano where his secret was discovered, read it and find out.
The Last Olympian ROX!!! If anyone ever sees this, just read the whole series starting from The Lightning Thief. It's mainly about Percy, Annabeth, Grover, Tyson and the Greek gods. Hope you enjoy it!!! =)
