Our Only May Amelia (Newbery Honor Book, 2000)

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

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.

Cool!

By Michael; Foreman, Michael (illus.) Morpurgo

This book was moving, and hard to put down! I find it rather easy to match my personality with Robbie's, and I spent most of the time I was reading it begging him to wake up from his coma. I also really enjoy other books by the author, Michael Morpurgo.

From Roy: Laura made a secret club called Pig city. And she wants nobody of the members to say about it. so she makes a thing called insurance (embarrassing), and it is a secret unless someone blobs... Now Monkey Town another chip wants to destroy Pig City. Favorite quote: :what do I have to do?" or "You have to kiss me?" I love clubs, Pigs, action, romance and Pigs Monkeys so this is a great book for me and you if you are 8 or 9+ years old! Same author as Holes.
