Missy Piggle-Wiggle and the Whatever-Cure was such a good book. “Piggle-Wiggle” might sound familiar to those who have read about Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle’s adventures before. Missy Piggle-Wiggle is Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle’s great niece. Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle lives in an upside-down house, which has a mind of its own. In the house lives some interesting animals. Lester, the talking pig, is very polite and has good etiquette. Penelope is the parrot, Wag is the dog, and Lightfoot is the cat. Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle was known for curing people in this town with interesting potions and other unusual things. The kids loved Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle because she let them come over to the upside-down house and do whatever they want. They can cook, read, play, and even make crafts. However, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle left suddenly, and she asked her great niece, Missy Piggle-Wiggle, to take care of the house while she was gone. Missy Piggle-Wiggle also cures people, and parents start calling her, telling her about the problems with their children. She cures children who are always late, who like to say “whatever,” and kids who are know-it-alls. This book follows the adventures of Missy Piggle-Wiggle as she uses unusual tactics to cure problems, like you have never imagined! This book is great for young readers and I recommend this to anyone who is into chapter books.

great book and I love the series of these kinds of books

this book is about a boy named Cas. he is no normal teenaged boy though, he's a ghost hunter. He gets calls from people and then he moves to that place and kills them! his next job is probably the biggest ghosts he has ever faced, Anna or as they call her Anna dressed in blood! it is said that she kills everybody who walks into her house. but leaves Cas untouched even. and its up to him to find out!!! this is one of my favorite books ever!!!!! love it! 5 stars!

I read this after falling in love with the character Bree Tanner in Eclipse. I counted down the days until its release and read it the day it was. The short story of Bree and Diego is soo tounching!

This is a really really great book. How To Catch a Bogle follows Birdie, a 10 year old orphan, is taken in by Alfred, a "bogler", or killer of bogles. He calls it "getting rid of pests". Bogles are monsters. Birdie's job is very dangerous, just one wrong move and she could be killed. But she gets by, and she knows she's better off than being a beggar or a "tosher" who roams the sewers. Then she's offered another life, a life as a singer with Miss Eames. Birdie is torn. I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was well put together, it hooks you in right from the start. It has adventure, drama, and even some glamor and romance. Something I loved about this book was how it makes you feel. It makes you feels Birdie's frustration or anger, it makes you understand how she feels. The only negative thing about this book is it contains some mild language and drinking, also it be frightening for young children. I'd reccommend it for 10 +. Happy reading!

Although it does drag on in the first 5-6 chapters, "Space Rocks" is a hilarious, grasping read with incredible plot twists. Chorkle is part of the Xotonian race living in Gelo, an asteroid that, until a couple of months ago, has never been invaded by anyone, let alone humans. When Chorkle spots some human offspring in Jehe Canyon, little does he know that these four little fur-heads would change Xotonian history forever. Within the next few months, he accidentally causes their mothership to have an emergency take-off (all because of Feeney’s Original Astronaut Ice Cream!) and the four little two-eyed humans are left stranded on Gelo. Chorkle tries to help them out...but what would you do if a five-eyed alien who deserted you in space offers his guidance? On an epic attempt of survival, Chorkle leads Becky, a bossy twelve-year-old who hates Chorkle the moment she lays her eyes on him; Nicky, Becky's identical twin who's obsessed with fungi (although she does have her ways with computers); Hollins, a thirteen-year-old boy who doesn't stop quoting Teddy Roosevelt; and Little Gus, who is simply awesomeness wrapped up in a ten-year-old. With Chorkle's help, these four find a way to keep breathing their beloved oxygen, fight ferocious thyss cats, and hide from the rest of the Xotonians who would surely imprison them if they were to find them. On top of all that, they eventually become oog-ball legends, go to the top of Dynusk’s Column, and even get to ride Usk Lizards!

Warning this review may contain spoilers! Ophelia finds this magical boy locked inside a room in a museum and agrees to help him with magical a quest. What I thought of it: Well, I read it awhile ago so I don't remember it very well. I do remember that everything that was supposed to be a "secret' or what not was pretty obvious. I knew from the start that the museum lady was the Snow Queen. I also figured that Ophelia was the special person (I can't remember the name they used at this exact moment). Also, I quickly figured out that Alice was going to be put into the machine. So yeah, everything was obvious. Also Ophelia was just plain annoying. She just went around saying that she didn't believe in magic because she was too smart to believe in magic. Well honestly, she wasn't that smart. She just came off as snotty. And she was boring too. The author tried to make her seem quirky and what not, but all that she did was take her inhaler. She literally took it like 4 times a day. The author must of not done much research because once you take your inhaler, you're supposed to wait 4 to 6 hours before taking it again. And this book wasn't very well written. Also, I was disappointed that we never learned the Marvelous Boy's name. Overall, it was boring and predicable. I've read a lot of books that were just like it.

This book is about 2 kids, Ben and Pearl, trying to catch a sasquatch that was being treated for foot fungus at Dr. Woo's worm hospital. But the worm hospital is not only for worms, but also for creatures from the Imaginary World. When Ben finds himself going to his grandpa's house for the summer in Buttonville so his parents could sort things out, Ben was not the happiest man on earth. But Buttonville was more exciting than he thought. He befriends Pearl Petal, a girl who lives in Buttonville. One day, his grandpa's cat drops a baby dragon on Ben's bed. And that's how it all started.

Wow! my birthday is next week and this is the book I want! The summary looks awesome and I have already read the first one and I love the author!

Sixth grader Spencer Lemon has a degenerative eye disease—and he’s rapidly losing his eyesight. So he has no idea why he was chosen to guard Pandora’s Book. When Ed, the old guy at the nursing home, hands over the book, he doesn’t get a chance to explain any of the rules to Spencer. Spencer only knows that the book contains famous dead people—people who can be brought back to life. Spencer and his autistic best friend, Gregor, soon figure out how to get people out of the book, but not how to get them back in. Then Ed disappears, and a strange man shows up on Spencer’s doorstep—and he seems to know a lot about Spencer and about Pandora’s Book. Is he one of the bad guys? Or is here to help Spencer unravel the secrets of the book? But there are others interested in Pandora’s Book, others who might use its powers to take over the world. And it’s up to Spencer, along with Gregor and Ed’s mysterious (and cute) granddaughter Mel, to protect the book—and save the world.
