Fairest of All (Whatever After #1)

Fairest of All (Whatever After #1)

By Sarah Mlynowski

Whatever After: Fairest of All is a pretty good book. Now, I'm not a fairy tale, happy ever after type of person, but I've got to admit, this novel was stunning. Abby has a realistic and typical teenage girl attitude, while Jonah is all for adventure. Now, Abby just wants to go home to her old house, and get away from Smithville. She hates the new place, and is totally creeped out by a mirror in the basement. But obviously, her annoying little brother always wrecks her chances of trying to maintain a normal life in the area. While "babysitting" Jonah, they end up being whisked away into the story of Snow White. At first, they have no idea what's going on and they need to find a way out. After exploring, they find an old lady with a basket of apples walking towards a pale- skinned girl with black hair. Wait a second...isn't that from a fairy tale or something? Oh yeah...it's Snow White...but she's about to get poisoned! After supposedly saving the day by not letting Snow White eat the poisoned apples, they realize their mistake. How will Snow White find her prince now? Oops. Funny, unique and eventful, this book will definitely appeal to grades 3-6+. This is a great book, and I hope you consider reading it over the summer!

The Wild Robot Escapes

The Wild Robot Escapes

By Peter Brown

10 year old

This book is the best. This book is one of the best books The Wild Robot Escapes is one of the best books I have ever read. The plot of the story is: Roz was used for helping humans with work, but Roz remembered her past life in an island, where there was nature with no people. Roz has a good adventure looking for her son that is a goose. Roz pretends to be a robot that has a job working in the city, and Roz and her son meet the creators of robots. I liked that there was a lot of action near the end of the book. I also liked that Roz was trying to find her son and that her son was trying to find them too. While that was happening, her son was all grown up joining a flock, and I liked that Roz shut down and then got made into a new advanced robot. I did not have any dislikes about The Wild Robot Escapes. That is why you should read The Wild Robot Escapes.

This page turning book will keep your heart beating, and you can really feel Gerta's emotions. I love this book SO MUCH, and I know you will too. I recommend this book to boys and girls ages 9+.

Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Boys' & Girls' Library)

Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Boys' & Girls' Library)

By Mark Twain

A classic by Mark Twain of "Adventures of Tom Sawyer" which is about a boy who goes by the well-known name of Tom Sawyer with at first mischievous and immature boy at the beginning of the story, often getting in trouble with his aunt Polly often scold her nephew. You would often see that Tom would be with his friend, Huck (Huckleberry Finn) whom Tom really close to, getting in trouble, too with him. Then Rebecca (known most of time as just Becky) Thatcher, a daughter of the town's new judge, as Tom got the romantic interest in Becky, got "engaged" due to the kiss until it's revealed by Tom that he actually "engaged" by another girl, Amy Lawrence, had the fight with Becky about it. Then, we have Injun Joe, a Native American who would defend himself most of time but got the racism from Tom and Huck. Later in the book, as Tom grew more considerate, kind, funny, and more mature than the beginning of the story. I had to read this for school and finally finished with this book today as I didn't really enjoy this due to the type of English which is Old English which can make me more harder to understand and also with the racism against the colored or even Native Americans. - Happy Reading...maybe!
