This book rotates chapters between characters, creating a want to keep reading to find out what is happening to the other characters, Paelen, Emma, Joel, and Pegasus. Each rotation between Paelean and the others, create a story, that truly grasps the reader. The story begins with a war going on in Olympus, which has caused a powerful, aggressive storm on Earth. Emergency responders are stuck on duty, including Emma's father, a police officer... Amid the war, Hermes dies in the fighting. In his final moments, he passes on his winged sandals to Paelen, who tries to deny them, but Hermes insists, which finally persuades him, and finally accepts them after Hermes passes away. Using the sandals, Paelen escapes the yelling Nirads by flying above them, as they try to shoot him down with their spears. Arriving at the heart of the battle, where more Nirads are attempting to extinguish the Vestal Flame, Paelen encounters Pegasus and attempts to remove his golden bridle, which consequently attracts lighting, knocking them both unconscious, pushing them down onto Earth. When they awake, one finds themself in a hospital, while the other ends up quite literally, stuck in a rose bush, on top of Emma's and her father's apartment. Emma hears the bang of Pegasus landing but tells herself it's most likely her deceased mother's garden shed falling over but finally convinces herself to go up. When she makes it up the stairs, she finds Pegasus. She tries to help him out, but scratches herself, in the act. After a moment, Pegasus has been freed, but she gets kicked and goes unconscious. After waking up, she notices two more injuries on poor Pegasus. A spear Stuck in his wing and a broken bone. Returning to her apartment, trying to get the creams and salves — her father used on her mother's bed sores during her fight with cancer, which is how she died —, along with ice cream for herself, and vegetables for the "horse." Surprising Emma, Pegasus insists on eating the ice cream instead of the vegetables, forcing Emma to eat them herself. Soon after, Emma is wondering how she is going to help Pegasus, she doesn't know how to set his wing, nor is strong enough to pull out the spear on her own. Finally, she comes to the conclusion, that as much as she doesn't want to, she has to ask Joel, her school bully, to help her. After all, he's always drawing pictures of Pegasus... At the hospital, Emma's father has been called in. Paelen has awoken and is healing fast, surprising the doctor, but there will be more to surprise him, after his blood test results come back. Paelen is careful about revealing to much information, but accidentally reveals too much, making him seem crazy, which doesn't surprise them too much, since he was suspected to have been at a costume party, sat to close to the window, got struck by lightning, and fell out.... After the test results come back, with a very much concerned nurse, due to them, Emma's father is sent home, since they had to call the CRU (Central Research Unit), who of which deal with rare phenomena, including UFO's...

This book was very entertaining! I could re-read this book a thousand times and still not be tired of it. I have not read the other books, but I plan on doing it. This book was an amazing fictional story, but it is not all fictional. All the "Instructions" are from the Bible, that's right, they are all bible verses! It has a great example on the real world, and I HIGHLY recommend! (Oh, and by the way, it is something your whole family can read) I LOVE THIS BOOK! The authors did amazing!

The book the Magic School bus space EXPLORERS is a very good book because the book has everything i like,like zooming through space having a robot right by you.

If you like adventure, cats or dogs, evil animals or people then this series is just for you! Dog man is a cop and he goes to jail for stealing money from the bank. Did dog man really steal money from the bank? His friends are there to find out who is behind this. The person or should I say people that is behind all this nonsense start a fire at the movie theater. Pete helps Cat kid (His clone) stop the bad guys. Who is behind all of this? Well you just have to read the book to find out more! Hey readers! I have read all the books and they are really good i ended up reading them like 10 times! I would say this book is for ages 8 and up!

To be honest, I absolutely love the I Survived series. The whole series is basically in the point of view of a person who survived a war, a horrible event, a terrorism attack, etc. It's basically a history book, but it sounds like a narrative and it's really to-the-point. This book is about Lucas, who loves football. When he gets a concussion during practice, the doctor says that his concussion is really bad for an 11-year-old. Lucas' parents decide that the sport is too dangerous, now that he has a concussion. Lucas has to talk to Uncle Benny, who taught him everything about football. He hopes that Uncle Benny can change his parents' mind. So, Lucas skips school and visits Uncle Benny (who is a firefighter in New York) and his dad, who works with Uncle Benny in the fire department. While they are talking, they were heading toward the Twin Towers when the first plane crashed! Uncle Benny and the firefighters (including Lucas' dad) tries to save as many people as they can. Lucas, on the other hand, tries to help as best as he can, but the room they are in collapses! Will everyone (or anyone) get out alive? Read this book to find out. I would not recommend this book to younger readers, because this is a very serious topic and not appropriate for them. Even though this was a short read, it made plenty of emotions rush through me - fear, angst, horror, and even happiness and relief. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I wept a little wept occasionally. One more thing: terrorism is an awful, awful thing, and I just hope that we can achieve world peace one day. Even if we do have one golden minute of world peace, I feel everything would crumble down again.. I'm sorry. I love this book, but I would subtract one star for not having a very good base or anything I can connect to.

Hurricane Katrina was one of the worst storms to hit the United States. It happened in August 2005, and it caused a lot of destruction, especially in New Orleans. The storm was huge, and it changed the lives of so many people. When Katrina hit, it was really scary. The wind was so strong, and the rain was nonstop. People were afraid their houses would be destroyed, and many of them had to leave their homes to find shelter. The storm caused the levees (which are walls that protect the city from flooding) to break, and that made things even worse. The water flooded the streets, and some neighborhoods were completely underwater. People were stuck in their homes or on rooftops, waiting for help. A lot of people had to go to places like the Superdome to stay safe, but the conditions there were bad. There wasn’t enough food or water, and people were uncomfortable for days. It was hard to get help at first because everything was so messed up. The storm made a lot of people lose their homes, their belongings, and even loved ones. Even though Hurricane Katrina caused a lot of damage, it also showed how strong people can be in tough times. Many families helped each other, and neighbors came together to survive. Even though it was hard, the people who went through the storm kept going, and over time, they started rebuilding their homes and their lives. Hurricane Katrina also taught us important lessons about how to prepare for big disasters and how to help people who are affected by them. It’s a storm that people will always remember, and it changed New Orleans and the Gulf Coast forever.

This is my favorite book series EVER! I really wish they'd make a movie of the books. (Not anyone but Universal, otherwise they'd mutilate it) It has betrayal, battles, war, queens, friendship, romance, action, jokes, Hunger Games-style arena warfare, prophecies, secrets, and characters you love (Hello, DoD, and you too, Jade Winglet. Also Darkstalker, Deathbringer, and Riptide. 'Cuz they're too awesome) and characters you'll hate. (coughcough Scarlet, Morrowseer, Blister, and Burn cough) I can not believe that Warriors is more popular than this. I mean, Warriors is okay, but it kind of "lost the magic," by the time the second series rolled around. This one is still going strong. And it has DRAGONS! Not to mention, when I reread Warriors, I thought "I read this in the second grade?" (When I was in 2nd grade, I was OBSESSED with Warriors. I don't really recall why.) Long story short: 2nd grade. Bedtime. Couldn't get to sleep. Pulled out A Dangerous Path. Mom made a 'no Warriors at bedtime' rule after that. (What? Those dogs were scary as heck.) Now, this does have some violence. (Mostly in the first book, because, hey, when much of the plot revolves around an arena where dragons fight to the death, not everyone's gonna make it out alive) But unlike Warriors, you usually won't be lying awake at night because you're afraid to go to sleep. (Though I did have a couple of nightmares about these once.) All in all, this series is five stars out of five!!!!! (For age rating, I would read this to a MATURE 3rd grader and up. Don't read it to younger kids unless you know them well and they are very hardy. I mean, like, 2nd grade. Don't read these to kindergartners. They probably wouldn't get it anyway.)

For those of you who like comic books, this book has both comic strips and normal text. Victor Starspeeder is starting his second year of middle school at Jedi Academy. Victor really wanted to get the lead role in his school's musical, but a new kid who seems better at everything gets the lead. To make things worse, Victor oversleeps (which means he's always late), the flight simulator makes him through up, and rumors are going around about his older sister, Christina, turning to the dark side. When Victor spies on Christina, he sees her getting along with a Sith. Eventually, Victor becomes friends with the new kid and he stops throwing up in the flight simulator! Fortunately for the musical, Victor designs an awesome monster costume, which makes the musical a huge hit. And it turns out that Christina wasn't turning to the dark side, but instead a hero. I recommend this book to all the Star Wars fans out there!

Yesterday I read Silverbell. It talks about a girl named Jill Pole to rescue a long lost prince. The prince’s father is sad because there’s no prince to become king after him. The girl travels through an underground world called The Land Of Bism where gnomes roam, eating diamonds.Gnomes are critters like humans, but have a hundred toes. My favorite part is when she gets to the house of the ManChomping Giants, giants who eat men for dinner. First, some lazy men were sleeping nearby. Jill picks the men up and tosses them into the ManChomping Giants’ house. The giants’ house was a big stone fortress, but it had windows on the floor. That part was the funny bit. Then, the girl goes to the Land Of The White Witch, and finds the prince by breaking the witch’s spell. They broke the spell by breaking a silver bell. Finally, they must battle the witch. That part was the scary bit. The moral of the story is to keep trying, even when things look hopeless. I like the story because they had a grand party at the end. If you want to see if they beat the witch, read the story!!!
