Freak the Mighty
By Rodman Philbrick
Do you think you would have a harder time becoming friends with Kevin, a boy with a growing disability? Well that’s where Maxwell comes in. The setting of this book took place in Maxwell's house, school, and walking on the sidewalk a lot. Maxwell and Kevin are both in 8th grade. Maxwell lives with his grandparents that he calls Grim and Gram. In Freak The Mighty by Rodman Philbrick, Kevin, also known as “freak”, and Maxwell become freak the mighty. Maxwell is this big, strong, tall boy, and Freak is a small boy with a bunch of disabilities that affect his growth. Freak and Maxwell went on a lot of adventures together and became best friends. They did everything together. They helped each other in many ways like dealing with Maxwell's dad who was in jail. Maxwell helped freak feel tall and helped him walk, and freak helped Maxwell realize he was smart. Maxwells grandparents were kinda scared of Maxwell because they thought he was going to become more like his dad. I enjoyed reading this book because I always wanted to know what happened next. For example, finding out how they were gonna get away from some school bullies. I would recommend this book for people from the age of 6th grade and up. Someone who is interested in kinda sad books but also adventurous would like Freak The Mighty.
Hana's Suitcase on Stage (Holocaust Remembrance Series)
By Karen Levine, Emil Sher
I liked how it thought a lesson about being happy in sad times while also teaching you about the holocaust.
Gone
By Michael Grant
Gone is the first book in the 6-part Gone series by Michael Grant. The book (and the series) is about a town where one day, every person over the age of 15 just disappears one day. After this, the children in the town are in what they call the FAYZ (Fallout Alley Youth Zone), with walls surrounding them. Eventually, some of the kids start developing mutations, such as running very fast, or burning people. All of this leads to a lot of havoc in the town, which is explored in this book and the rest of the series. I feel that this book has good points and bad points. This book is well written, has interesting characters, and detailed descriptions. However, it also contains many boring sections and some powers seem a bit cliche. Overall, Gone is a decent book with some interesting parts. I give this book 3.5 out of 5 stars from me. I recommend this book anyone from the ages of 12 and up (However, if you want to read the other books, I feel that you should be at least 14 years old.)

The Penderwicks at Last
By Jeanne Birdsall
This was the perfect ending to the perfect series!! The Penderwicks are funny, smart, sporty, and above all, loving. These have something for everyone. They taught me lots of things. Rosalind taught me to be selfless and caring. Skye taught me to speak your mind and NEVER compromise. Jane taught me to be whimsical and to learn from your mistakes. Batty taught me to be true to yourself, no matter who you are. Ben taught me to follow your heart, even when it points you in odd directions. Lydia taught me never to walk when you can dance. I will never tire of them. Ever. It broke my heart when it ended, even if it DID end well... - sirireads
