Stink and the Freaky Frog Freakout

Stink and the Freaky Frog Freakout

By Megan McDonald

Stink is really embarrassed. Even though he is really good at most things he tries, he is still in the Polliwog swimming class for little kids because he can't put his face underwater. All of the sudden, Stink starts seeing frogs everywhere. After a BLUE frog licks his arm he starts acting like a frog himself. He starts jumping around the house like a frog and sticking his tongue out to eat things. He starts to memorize frog calls and goes to a frog festival to learn more about them. The one good thing about thinking he is a frog is that he is finally able to put his head under water and gets to move on to the big kid swim class. I liked this book because it was fun learning facts about frogs and how they act. I just don't want to turn into a frog!!!

City of Ghosts

City of Ghosts

By Victoria Schwab

This is a very engaging book that sends chills up your spine. I have read it multiple times and loved every minute of it, even when it creeped me out a little bit. The main character is named Cassidy and her best friend is a ghost.....no she is not crazy.....Jacob is a real ghost. Ever since Cassidy drowned and Jacob saved her life she has been able to cross between the world of the living and the world of the dead. She calls this 'the veil' because in order to cross over she pulls on a curtain in the air and enters the ghost world. Whenever a ghost is in the veil she hears a tap-tap-tap and is pulled towards it in order to pull back the curtain. Jacob does not like it when Cassidy does this, and neither does she, but 'the veil' calls to her and makes her wonder if there is something she should be doing in the mysterious place. To make matters worse, her parents decide to host a TV show on the most haunted places in the world, and they head off to Scotland, instead of the nice beach vacation that Cassidy had planned. She learns that Scotland is filled with ghosts and sometimes the pull of 'the veil' is too strong for her to resist and it sucks her into the land of the dead without her pulling on the curtain. Jacob gets dragged along, much to his irritation, and Cassidy meets another girl with her same talent, who Jacob doesn't like one bit. She realizes that she has much to learn about 'the veil' and that it is more dangerous than she initially thought. The girl informs her that she has a job to do instead of lugging her precious old-fashioned camera around and taking pictures in the hopes that one will turn out with ghost pictures instead of blurry shadows. This book keeps you turning pages so that you never want to stop. "The City of Ghosts" can get pretty scary, but not too bad, after all, I don't usually like scary books but this one surprised me and I love it a lot. I would recommend this book to middle schoolers who enjoy realistic fantasy with a little twist.

Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague (Fablehaven)

Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague (Fablehaven)

By Brandon Mull

So, in this book, it is all about Kendra and Seth again. There is an weird plague going around, changing light creatures into dark creatures- and someone has to sacrifice themselves to stop it. It all began when the Phoenix was realized to be evil. That was when he started making a LOT of trouble... The thing is, this was an amazing book, with so many plots and surprises. This was a book that I just could not forget. I read this like, at the beginning of this year, but I remember it so clearly.

The One Thing You'd Save

The One Thing You'd Save

By Park, Linda Sue

This book is told by so many peoples perspective, one who has lived though a fire and saved nothing just tried to get out as quick as she could. Most of the people had something really important to them, maybe some wanted to save their xbox or something like that. This book shows everyone's perspective to what THEY would save, not their friend or their mom what THEY would save. This book was good for the most part, but some times it's sorta hard to tell whos perspective it is. But I do recommend The One Thing You'd Save.

Bone: Rockjaw Master of the Eastern Border HC

Bone: Rockjaw Master of the Eastern Border HC

By Jeff Smith

To start off with, this book is super cool. To sum it up, its about the bones and there new friend trying to go back to town. But they see smoke. they don't know its being attacked and the treaty was broke. and the rat creature peoples leader is Kingdok. He and a fellow mate who is trying to capture the people known as rock jaw like in the title. they don't wanna live in the places they had to live in after the war, but on all they lost and now they broke a treaty and are attacking the main town and Mr.Down is in town. And, Phoney bone is trying to leave with all towns peoples goodies but caught the dragon. They weren't waning to catch the dragon. But, and Torn had to save the dragon because they were about to kill the red dragon but in all torn saves the dragon from death. I think it's crazy how Phoney bone wants to leave in the middle of a war! This made me realize, how selfish Phoney bone is. He wants to leave with everyone's goodies and keep it to himself and he's doing it in the war were he need the dragons the most. He's putting so many life's in danger. This made me feel like never be greedy cause he's doing something bad. Really bad that people are gonna die and he might get caught. That would be very sad but he earned it. The theme is never be selfish cause when he gets caught it wont be pretty for him. If you like chase downs you would enjoy this fantastic book. If you like all these things I am saying, you should read this amazing book. And if you like bad people getting what they deserve you should read this. Well that's all to it. That's mostly about what happens in the book with nothing you wouldn't want to read it.

Gathering Blue

By Lois Lowry

bsc

I'll be honest...this was not my favorite book. I really liked The Giver, and was disappointed when this book was confusing and kind of boring. After Kira's mother's death, Kira is sad. Her whole house has been burned down because of a death, which is something they do when someone dies. Now Kira is left to live for herself. Because of being physically disabled since birth, Kira faces many discrimages and hardships that society gives her. Kira has been told to leave her community, to live with Council Edifice. Mystified, Kira finds out that she must weave for the powerful Guardians. Kira faces the questions and hopes to finds answers. Happy reading!

The Girl with the Silver Eyes

The Girl with the Silver Eyes

By Willo Davis Roberts

I give this book a 5 star because it show how people are different. This book reminds me about the book tuck everlasting because how the tucks have everlasting life. This book is about how this shy girl and with her silver eyes and her cold blank stare, the ten-year-old makes others feel uncomfortable. And life without friends has convinced Katie that she's different from everyone else and destined to be alone forever.
