Kids Books - Science Fiction

This book is my favorite of the series. In this book Phony bone gets greedy and tells the townspeople he will be there dragonslayer if they pay him which is a horrible idea because the dragons are harmless.

Based on Cinderella, this story has a big difference. More twists and turns! Ella never wanted to be cursed. Cursed to be obedient, that is. You're probably wanting to know how it started. Well, this gift-giver-lover fairy, Lucinda, gave her it when she was first born. Lucinda didn't know how bad the curse would be. The curse effected the way she acted to Prince Charmont. It gets worse when her mother dies. I totally do not like this part. When I read it, I freaked out. It gets even worse when her father marries Dame Olga. Hattie and Olive, two bossy sisters, become Ella's sister. But at the ball, when Hattie reveals who Ella is, Ella takes off. She was suppose to be ''Lela''. That's because Char was not suppose to know her identity. Suddenly, Char demands to see her, so he lines everyone outside. When he finds Ella, the ordering is extreme. Gail Carson Levine made this book more magical then the original Cinderella. This book totally deserved to win a Newbery Honer.

Warriors. It used to be my favorite series, but now I have a bit of a weird relationship with it. I remember reading the first series and falling in love, and then finishing it and remaining in love. Upon rereading the series, however, once I got to the New Prophecy I thought, "Wait. I actually LIKED this garbage? Where's the adventure? The drama? The magic and intrigue of the first arc?" Well, let me tell you where that went. Out the window! (or, should I say, cat flap.) Well, folks, after some bumps in the road (or mountains- just like in the HUNDREDS of chapters we get of characters walking through them) the original charm of Warriors is back! The false Bramblestar has been acting odder than ever, forcing the other Clans to exile their so-called "codebreakers." This is leading to more and more cats are joining the rebellion, and more and more believing the Bramblestar leading Thunderclan is an impostor- especially since Rootspring was able to summon the real Bramblestar's ghost at the medicine cat's half-moon meeting. Bristlefrost is acting as a spy for the rebellion- pretending to be loyal to the impostor and doing whatever he tells her to do, no matter how tyrannical it may seem. However, cats who once believed her are turning their backs on her after Bristlefrost is made deputy- a decision that may lead to even more unnecessary deaths. And Shadowsight? He's missing- and the false Bramblestar may be behind it. I was intrigued throughout the entirety of Veil of Shadows. However, I'm only giving it 4 stars because the book's title seemed too similar to A Vision of Shadows, the previous Warriors arc, and Bristlefrost and Rootspring's relationship was, to be frank, terrible. (Forbidden romance? When have we seen THAT before?) Overall, pretty good, especially compared to its previous installments. Would recommend for any Warriors fans!

Tippi and Grace are twins, but not just any twins: the're conjoined twins. What is it like to be one of those? Imagine sharing a pair of legs with another person. That's how Grace's life is like--everyday. Starting school at 16 is a big challenge, with the mean looks and strange staring. Can Grace get used to the hundreds of eyes staring at her? Answer: Not at all. Soon an operation is scheduled to seperate the twins, and Grace's life is tipped over. At the end Tippi dies and it is very sad. If you're very sensitive don't read this, it will make you cry. A lot. Good book but too sad.

I am a student in middle school that is an avid reader, I have wrote reviews before and am very qualified to write this review. With every turn of the page of A Monster Calls by, Patrick Ness, you dive deeper and deeper into a suspenseful plot, you will not be able to set down this book. Patrick Ness went to the University of Southern California, some of his other books, include A Knife Of Never Letting Go, as well as More Than This. My opinion of A Monster Calls is that it is one of the best fantasy books I have read, the only complaint about this book I would have, is that in some parts of the book, it was lacking some action. Overall I would rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. A Monster Calls is about a boy named Conor whose mom is dying of cancer, and Conor keeps having a reoccurring nightmare. When he has the dream, he wakes up every time at 12:07 A.M. When he wakes up one night there is a monster in his backyard that is made out of a yew tree. The monster during the day is just a plain old yew tree in the cemetery behind Conor's house. The monster tells Conor three stories which lead up to an ending that finally tells you what you have been waiting for the entire book. An example in this book, that lead me to say that it was slow in some parts, was that in between stories, there were a lot of parts that I felt were unnecessary. Also, leading up to the first story I felt there was some nonsense. If I had to compare this to a book I have read, I couldn't, because it is completely off in its own awesome category. The type of person that would enjoy this book, would be someone that has a love for fantasy books, or someone that likes a sort of spooky story.

I wasn't sure whether or not I should post individual reviews on each book in the trilogy.... I ultimately decided to kill three birds with one stone- er, book review. (They DO say the pen is mightier than the sword.) As someone who's read all the FunJungle novels and is currently in the middle of the Spy School series, I'd have to say the Moon Base Alpha books were by far the best. I wish Stuart Gibbs made more, but alas! He didn't. Anyway, it's the future, and Dashiell (Dash) Gibson (fun fact! he's named after Stuart's son) lives on a space station. On the MOON. Sounds like a dream experience, right? Wrong. The food is horrible, and there's only so much you can do with your virtual reality systems. So, Dash resorts to what any 12 year-old kid would do to pass the time- solving mysteries! Each book is chock-full of twists, turns, action, and laughter. Even if you're not into space, (I'm not! I thought I'd like FunJungle better, because I'm an animal lover, but I didn't!) you should still give this book a try. With its quirky characters, astounding world-building, and sensational suspense, Moon Base Alpha is one of the best series I've ever read!

This book is perfect for Minecraft fans or gamers. Most of the books can be read on an app called epic.

This book is about Steve and how he has a village that is hit by a Zombie Siege, and he wants to get a diamond sword so he can stop the zombies and finds a trio that wants to help him. He and Henry, Max and Lucy. Steve also goes on an adventure to the nether and gains a portal to the End. He and his friends get a lot of obsidian and kill the Ender Dragon, the most fierce creature in all of Minecraft. Steve and his friends fight a lot of zombies and kills the most powerful zombie, and has a party in his house with all his friends.

Reading this book was a huge adventure. Its like your IN IT. I hope other people liked it because I loved it.
