No Flying in the House
By Betty Brock
What I thought of the book No Flying in the House is that it is well written because it had interesting cliff hangers and surprises. There were some fascinating characters such as Belinda the cat that can change into different things and Gloria the talking dog. I wish I had Gloria as a dog she is awesome. I recommend reading this if you like fantasy and animals.
Tiger, Tiger
By Lynne Reid Banks
This is a good book, but very gory at the arena part. I would not recommend this book to anyone younger than 11 years old.

Brain Jack
By Brian Falkner
I think this book is the best. This book is great for people who enjoy computers and teamwork, because this book has those words written all over it. This book is about a boy who hacked into one of the big networks and then he got "arrested" but got recruited by the people who arrested him. Then a big virus starts attacking one of the trends and they have to defeat it. This is such a great book. I loved it.

Our Only May Amelia (Newbery Honor Book, 2000)
By Jennifer L. Holm
I chose this book for the class because we have been learning about Washington State's history and the effects of change on people and cultures. May Amelia's family are immigrants from Finland and they have brought their cultural perspective to their new life in the Northwest. They must make adjustments to live successfully in this new territory among the indigenous Chinook and the immigrant Chinese to name a few. May Amelia, herself, wrestles with the traditions of her culture and her desire to take risks and live the adventurous life of her brothers. I loved the characters in this book and the unique writing writing style of Jennifer Holm.
THE LOST BOY: A FOSTER CHILD'S SEARCH FOR THE LOVE OF A FAMILY
By Dave Pelzer
The Lost Boy (Dave Pelzer #2) The Lost Boy by Dave Pelzer. The genre is an autobiography. The Lost Boy is about a young boy that had no loving home. His only clothes are old rags that are torn. The only world he knows about is isolation and fear. Although people rescued him from his mother, he really has no place to call home. Now the child is considered an F-Child (Foster Child), Dave is moved in and out of five different homes. He suffers shame and experiences resentment from those who feel that all foster kids are trouble and unworthy of being loved just because they are not part of a real family. I think people should read this book because it can remind us that we has a place to call home.
