Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot Vs. The Uranium Unicorns From Uranus (Ricky Ricotta #7)
By Dav Pilkey
In my opinion, I really liked this book. One reason why is it is about a robot and the people are animals . Another reason why is its a action storie about a robot fighting bad guys. The last reason why is it has a lot of books in the series . My favorite part is when the bad guys get in trouble. You might like this book if you like sci-fi books with robots. You should read this book because it has a big series and its about robots .

Everyone is so happy about Zita saving the world 🌎 that they all want to see her.so one morning she comes out of her house and she tells everyone hi and all of that stuff but after she does that she sees a robot that looks just like her .And she is tired of everyone being so excited about nothing so she tells the robot that looks like her to switch places with her and the robot does it.it turns out the robot takes over her and no one even knows because they think the robot Zita is Zita 😮 long story -short .everyone figures out that the robot is not Zita .now I'm not going to spoil anything else because it is way to good of a book to spoil!I recommend to 10 to 13 year olds and I rate this book 4/5 stars (what stinks for me is the next one is not at my library!! 😥😥😥😥 ) 😁 😁 -Pizzagirl7 😁 😁
Sparrow Rising (Skyborn #1)
By Khoury, Jessica
I will be recommending this middle grade fantasy book to everyone and can't wait for book two! The world building is some of the best I've ever encountered; the author created a fantasy world that never pulled me out or stopped me from believing that these human-like characters born with wings weren't real. And speaking of characters, these all popped off the pages and I soared with them, following their adventures and flights into danger. Each character is unique, well-fleshed out with flaws and motivations and pasts. I felt the pacing was perfect and I never wanted to stop reading. Every action and word and thought propelled the story forward and I never felt the plot dragging. Overall, this is an amazing middle grade fantasy with the perfect amount of suspense and danger. The friendships felt like found family and I can't wait to fly with Ellie, Nox, Twig, and Gussie again.
Unbirthday: A Twisted Tale
By Liz Braswell
Everyone has been RAVING about this series, and I figured: I love fairy tales, I love Disney and I love Alice in Wonderland, so why not? I wasn't as enchanted with this book as I had hoped. It was a really cool re-telling/addition to Alice in Wonderland's lore, but it just didn't hit all the right chords with me. Let me explain: 1. This book is 500 pages long. It is WAY longer than it needed to be and droned on at times. That made this book super slow, and I am a fast paced kind of reader. 2. The Queen's executions and property stealing seemed random yet planned. I don't know why, but that part of the story kind of threw me off. It was weird. And we didn't even get to see too much of her... 3. The plot didn't grab my attention, if I'm being honest. What I did enjoy: 1. Katz was a cool character. Alice having a love interest was new and very intriguing! I have to admit, I kind of liked it? Especially since this book didn't go full romance either. Just cute plot suggestions to add to her story. 2. Alice is a strong female lead with likes and dislikes and hobbies. I like that. 3. The story telling and writing style of Liz Braswell is wonderful. That definitely helped this story a lot. Overall, this book makes me want to read the rest of the series, especially based on the reviews of other readers. Disney fans will enjoy it for sure! Three out of five stars.
The Worst Witch at School
By Jill Murphy
Murphy's law reigns supreme in the life of student witch, Mildred Hubble--anything that can go wrong does. She still manages to save the day on multiple occasions. A light, fun read for children 8-11. I like children's books and this was fun, but very young and light. It was cute and children this age will enjoy it. It's not an ambitious book like Harry Potter. This one, by the way, came first and is quite similar in some ways, it's a boarding school with classes in potions etc. and a big spooky castle. The difference is, there is no abiding force of evil against which to struggle. This may be appropriate for very young children, but makes the book seem a bit fluffy in comparison. The evil that does read its head is minor and brief. I love children's literature. This book is good, but not great. And isn’t that what we want with children’s books, for them to leave a positive lasting impression?
The Die of Destiny (Champion's Quest)
By Frank L. Cole
I loveed reading Fablehaven and Poison Masters when those books were released so I'm so excited about this new series!! Would definitely recommend this genre
The Return of Zita the Spacegirl
By Ben Hatke
When Zita meets a robot that looks very similiar to her, Zita asks her to pretend to be her so she can escape all the fame. But then the robot wants to be a hero and decides not to give back Zita her real identity. Now Zita must get back her real identity and save a planet from an incoming invasion. I would recommend this for ages 9+ I really liked this book and it was pretty exciting. If you like sci fi then i would definetly recommend this.
Dragon's Milk
By Fletcher
This book of the Elythian (sorry for possible typo) girl with green eyes has to get dragon's milk to save her sister. She barters her service as a babysitter for the precious milk. When she sits for the dragons one day, the mother dragon is slain, and is forced to go to a remote island where the babies are to grow up. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting a fantasy book with dragons and periolous adventure.
