Kids Books - Science Fiction

What if someone told you that time travel was possible; that you can journey to the past or venture into the future? The Time Traveler, whose name is never revealed, is an intelligent but extremely eccentric scientist who discovers that there are four known dimensions of space--which really only means that you can easily move up and down, left and right, forward and backwards, and through Time. As long as you have entire consciousness and speed, you can break its constraints move around it. And so the unnamed Time Traveler brings himself to the year 802,701--that’s 30 million years from his own time. When he finally finds his way to the future, he finds his home--London--to be gone. Every building that formed the city no longer stands--just structures that act as homes to a society of simple-minded and innocent creatures who call themselves the Eloi. But as he continues his stay with them, he notices strange things, things the Eloi won’t tell him about. Sinister ghost-like beings that come in the night --deep voids in the ground that lead into what seems like nothing, and why are the Eloi so deathly afraid of the dark?--but ultimately, no one tells the Time Traveler about what happened to the human race. Most science fiction books during that century--the 1800s--were centered around the entire idea of being able to travel through time, but H.G. Wells was the first to actually try to explain the science of moving through the dimension of duration. Most of you probably wouldn’t enjoy books written in 1895--that’s 119 years old-- but The Time Machine really is worth reading-- and its only a little less than a hundred pages long. You’ll find that the Time Traveler, especially, is one of the most interesting parts of the book because you get to understand the mind of a scientist--it makes you think like him when you look at the world. The Time Machine is a novel that stands the test of time and humanity. But if there’s one thing I didn’t love about this book is how Wells views the--truly haunting--fate of us. And he definitely deepened the meaning of The Time Machine with thought-provoking ideas people today haven’t really cared enough to think about--the idea that today’s problems such as rampant industrialization and especially class struggle, will carry on to the future even 800,000 years from now. And although it’s only fiction, the way Wells portrays the future can very well be true. The human race doesn’t end, of course--but something much worse happens; something inhumane. “It sounds plausible enough tonight,” says the Time Traveler, “but wait until tomorrow. Wait for the common sense of the morning...for after the Battle comes quiet.”

a cute little novella to read after you finsihs the acotar series. i really hope cassian and nesta get their happy ending, and there have been rumours that sarah j mass is writing a book for them! be sure to check out her throne of glass series, as it is in the same universe.

This is a fantabulous Christmas classic! Hop aboard the Polar Express to visit Santa with new friends. The movie is also super awesome. Gather the family around the TV and Christmas tree with some hot chocolate by the fireplace, and sit back. This is going to be the ride of your life! :)

the mention of war is the title: acoWAR. but its honestly not so bad. some of it really breaks my heart, and i make sure to reread this book every year or so.

This book is highly recommended for 10 to 13 year-olds. I really loved it and you think it's like Harry Potter but it's not. If you read this make sure to check out books 1,3,4,5,6,and7.

Graceling was truthfully amazing like REALLY good like as good as harry potter. Summary: Katsa is a 16 year old graceling she has two different coloured eyes and an extraordinary gift; killing. She work as slave to her uncle the king hurting anyone who didn't follow his laws, until she meets Po a lienid boy graced with fighting who is bout to change her life. Graceling is an amazing book that I highly recommend.

After the events of book one Sophie and Agatha are back home, but, unfortunately, life isn't exactly happily ever after. When Sophie and Agatha find themselves thrown back into the world of fairy tales, the world has flipped since they left. Instead of the School for Good and the School for Evil now there are the Schools Girls and the School for Boys. Suddenly life is a lot different, as all over the world girls are realizing they don't need their prince charmings and are booting them from their stories. And the entire tense situation is about to explode. Will Agatha be reunited with her true love, Tedros? Will Sophie be able to suppress her villainous ways? Will the fairy-tales return to their origins, or will life be forever topsy turvy? I loved this book! The character development was amazing, just as great as it was in the first book! I am really excited to read the third book in the series! I recommend this book to those who enjoy fairytales and fantasy books. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

I rarely rate books 5 Stars, but I rated this one! It was so amazing, like SEEKERS by Erin Hunter, it’s about 2 polar bear cubs, First and Second. First is the male, while Second is the female. Their mother is taken as a prisoner - so much like SEEKERS by Erin Hunter - and then the cute twins have to try to save her. Let me just say, the ending is just... such a cliffhanger. I am so excited to read the next book! Thanks, DOGO, for hooking me up to this book. MUST READ!!

Follow Dorthey and her friends through this magical land called Oz. Along the way they learn the true importance of love, bravery, and intelligence. There is no place like home! I suggest this for 8+ and I encourage you to read past the first page. At first this book is a little bizarre but as you go you will get entranced in the story. I also suggest it for people who like Alice in Wonderland, family, fantasy, and sci-fi. (I am not really into sci-fi, but this is an exception.) Happy Reading!

Tuck Everlasting is the story where after Winnie Foster runs away to the other side of the fence where the forest of Treegap , meeting Jesse Tuck and his family soon after learning the secret that they drank some spring water that granted them immortality (as in never seeming to grow old and can't die). But there's someone else that they'll soon meet that wants to sell that water for profit. Connecting this to my life, it reminds me of my awareness of mortality and other books that tell you something important, but in a subtle way. I really liked this book because of its writing and its way of storytelling. The only reason that this review is 4 stars and not 5 is because nothing really struck out to be, for me at least, an extreme page turner. Overall this book is great for lots of kids. 4/5 Would recommend.
