Kids Books - Science Fiction

Matthias starts out as an adorable pup of a mouse and ends up a good and formidable young adult mouse. He is the protagonist and you can't help but adore him, together with Constance the Badger and the old Methuselah mouse... The second favorite of mine, Silent Sam, is plain cute, and the Sparrow and Rabbit are great supporting characters! But the star of the show is definitely the writing style and the enchanted atmosphere of this world. The descriptions are brisk but just enough to give you a feel of the forest and its inhabitants, while the banter is plentiful and lively. The whole book reads very smoothly and there is no chance of you getting lost along the way. I loved all the different characters, and really enjoyed the old-school valiant hero and terrible villain. I also liked that the author didn't shy away from death and pain. Actions have consequences and kids, who often believe themselves invulnerable, eventually have to deal with the changes that come from the passing of someone, and that life changes, but keeps on going... 5/5 star :)

The Grim Grotto is about the Baudelaire orphans, who find themselves in a little submarine, which has Captain Widdershins, the captain, Fiona, a kid who is also a mycologist, and Phil, whom the Baudelaires met at the Lucky Smells Lumbermill. The Baudelaires soon find themselves actually kind of happy, and when Captain Widdershins tell them they are trying to find the sugar bowl before Count Olaf does and try to make it to the last safe place of V.F.D. But when they start searching, they find themselves soon in Count Olaf's hands again. But the Baudelaires know they can defeat him, but with the uncovering of a man,a betrayal of a friend, and Carmelita Spats, the Baudelaire orphans need all their strength for this!

I won this book in a giveaway, and it was superb! It picks up about ten years where McMann's last series ended. Twin girls Fifer and Thisbe have extremely powerful magic, but there brother Alex (leader of Artime) won't let them learn how to use it until they learn how to control it. You see their magic has a reputation for being destructive and causing problems. They don't do it on purpose of course, it just slips out accidentally. When one of the dragons (Hux) Alex had made wings for in the previous series comes to Artime seeking help, the twins think this is the perfect opportunity to show Alex just how well they can use their magic for good. Fifer and Thisbe leave the island to help Hux and his siblings, but are met with some unexpected troubles upon arrival. I highly recommend reading this book. A great read for fans of the original Unwanteds series which I would recommend reading before reading this book.

“Splat!” a living splotch of ink escapes from a sketchbook. The name of this book is Inkling. The Author of this book is Kenneth Oppel. The year this book was published was 2018. This is a well written book that is funny and good for all good for all ages. First what happened in the book was Ethan meets a living splotch of ink that came from his father’s sketchbook. Next , the living blob of ink named Inkling helps Ethan with drawing. Then, Inkling starts to give Ethan drawing lessons. After, Vika Ethan’s classmate and mortal enemy finds out about inkling and steals him. Finally Ethan gets Inkling back and Ethan’s sister gets a dog. Here is one of the things I liked about the book.What I liked most about the book Inkling was how unique the characters were. No two of the characters are alike. Each of the ways the characters think and act are different from each other. I remember most of the book but the most memorable part was when Inking escaped from Ethan's father’s sketchbook. First what happened was Inkling pulled all his ink into the center of the book. Then he kept trying to pull himself out. Finally he shot out of the sketchbook with a great leap. Inkling is a funny well written book and is good for all ages. I recommend this book to people who like books that are longer. I also recommend it to people who like fiction books. I don’t recommend this book to people who like picture books or non-fiction books because Inkling is a fictional chapter book.

In this book there is a science fair happening at school. Hubie really can't decide what to make he goes back in fourth with making a clone of himself or making a laugh machine cloneing or clowning as he says. Which one will be end up doing?or does he even do one of those? I recommend this book to younger kids and I rate this book 2/5 stars - Pizzagirl7 😉

i really want this book because i am really in to minecraft

So wow, I'm really loving all the new things introduced in their next arc of the Wings of Fire series. This one takes place at the same time as the tenth book, and I definitely don't recommend trying to jump into the series here. You should definitely go back and read from the beginning. I also highly suggest you read the prequel, Darkstalker before you read this one. Now with that out of the way, I loved the new types of dragons brought into our journey through the world of Wings of Fire. They're all so cool and unique. I thought how we got the history of this Lost Continent was really well done, and you can see how over time the dynamics between the different types of dragons shifted and evolved along with the environment of the continent itself. I liked the characters a lot. Blue was sooo frustrating, but that's just how he is. I thought he went through a lot of growth in this physically and mentally which was awesome to see. Luna was a great sister character pushing Blue but not too hard. Cricket was a fun, eccentric character that asks all the questions I had while reading! I really liked all of the other characters as well, and Sundew actually made me laugh out loud as I was listening to the audiobook. There is some instalove in this which was kind of annoying, but I appreciated that the novel was self aware about it and kind of pokes fun of it using other characters. I'm pretty excited to see how the new dragonets will handle their situations going forward, because this new arc promises some awesome rebellion and personal growth. It was wonderful coming back to the series through fresh eyes. I certainly had fun exploring the world, as well as the new dragons, set up by the author. It was the best course of action to focus on three species of dragons in this new world as opposed to the six that were in the previous books, especially if we are going to bring the two continents together as hinted at in the end of the last book as well as the end of this book This series follows the wonderful pacing of the previous books, starting at a calm but curious beginning and immediately throwing you into the action. I certainly was never bored while reading the book. The characters were each unique in personality and I can tell that the author is trying to branch out their appearances to match their personalities I would say the only down side would be the protagonist. That doesn't seem like a good thing but I would say this critique is that the protagonist has a loose personality. We have the main things established for Blue: He follows rules, he doesn't want to fight and cause a scene, etc. but other than that we don't see until later how his personality falls in line with his belief (the author tries to make "following the rules" a personality but it isn't). I enjoyed seeing his character slowly coming into picture but I only wish that it was clear from the beginning so we could follow his growth better. This could also apply to the other characters but not as much. I would certainly recommend this book (I already have) because it is so much fun.

Warren the 13th is back! In this sequel that takes place shortly after the first book, Warren has only recently learned that hotel is a walking one! He along with his best friends Petula and Sketchy, along with a rag-tag group of adults have been cruising around the country, picking up well to-do guests along the way. Where his life previously was full of fear and disappointment, now Warren has a life filled with adventure and friendship. His biggest concern is the critics. Nonetheless, things seem to be going smoothly. That is until the Warren(the hotel's name) crashes to the ground, he loses all his guests, and then is kidnapped by a mimic. The mimic replicates Warrens image, and calls himself Worrin. Worrin soon takes over the hotel with the intent to sell it to the Witch Queen, Calvina, and Warren is forced to chase the Warren on foot. Unfortunately for Warren, he is smack dab in the middle of the Malwoods-which is filled to the brim with witches and many more startling creatures. Will Warren survive on his own? Will he save his hotel? Will his friends realize that Worrin is an impostor? This book is filled with danger, and twists in every chapter. Although since this is an AR book not all the pictures were inserted yet, the images that were included were wonderful and added to the story tremendously. I really liked how Tania del Rio continued Warren's story. I felt as if I was really entwined in the story, and just enough backstory was added so that it could be understand even without reading the first book. I recommend this book for elementary and middle grade aged kids. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I received this book as part of the Advance Review Club.
