I had read this book a while back and was quite impressed! Ann is a great writer, so I had pretty high standards for this book. I love the idea of having the younger sisters side of the story instead of the moody teen (Like me!) complaining about her bratty younger sister. (Like mine!) Speaking of, my sister is in 5th grade but thinks she's 30! Just like Pearl. She read it and loved it too! "I liked that she thought like me and liked the same things I did! I also liked the part where the cat was eating the Lexie's underwear!" If my little sister likes it, it cant be half bad...right?

Even though this book doesn't have any words, it explains alot. A dog orders a robot, and that robot is the dogs friend. They then go to the beach. The Robot must stay. He has rusted. The dog feels sad. Later, he gets everything he needs to fix his friend. The beach is then closed for the season. Three rabbits were sailing, but the boat had a hole! They fled to the nearest land, the beach. They saw the robot, then used one of his toes to fix the boat. Meanwhile, the dog seeks new friends. And in the end, the dog and the robot go different paths. This book has interesting pictures that I enjoy.

In Alistair Grim's Odditorium Grubb is a 12-year old boy who works as a chimney sweep, but only receives pitiful amounts of food and beatings from his cruel master. All that changes the day he stows away in a trunk of a wealthy guest at the hotel he is cleaning. He dreams he is flying, and when he wakes up, he finds himself in London in the Odditorium. The Odditorium is full of many magic items-known as odditoria. Grubb becomes Mr. Grim's apprentice. But before long the Odditorium is attacked and they take off flying in order to prevent the magic from falling into evil hands. They must defeat Prince Nightshade, and protect the magic of the world. I liked in this book that there was lots of adventure, and there many different pieces that all fit together at the end-there were partly mysteries. The book wasn't predictable. I didn't like that some issues were not resolved in the book-there was a cliffhanger. This book is part of series, and could not stand by itself. I do know there is a sequel though-I just have to get my hands on it. I recommend this book to adventure lovers and fantasy lovers. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

I am so glad books like this exist. Without Ishi, I would not have known what life was really like for the Yahi when the Saldu (white man) showed up. I love the details of Ishi's life in Northern California, and I also feel terribly depressed when I read about the demise of his tribe. A very important book for young readers studying California Indian history.

This book kept me laughing almost all the way through I give this five stars because it was funny and very awesome at the end. I would recommend this book to a friend. I want to read the rest of the stories written by Melanie marks. <3

This book was amazing!! the person bellow me i think they read a different book. it was an exciting mystery about a boy and his past. He can't read the papers his grandfather had in his attic. was he stolen? kidnapped? he doesn't know. maybe someone can help him....

The Truth About Forever is a very touching story, like many of Sarah Dessen’s other book. The main character Macy Queen had lost her father, and she still can’t get over her grief. The story really touched my heart. The story was very beautiful and I felt the urge to cry at many points of the story, the strong emotions in the story had really touched my heart. I like how the different characters in the story had handle their loss of other people differently. Everyone had a different story. The book was just really heart-touching and made me understand that you can’t grief about something or someone forever, you have to learn to walk out of the grief and have a new beginning but still have a place for that person or thing in your heart.

It's sounds so cool and interesting to turn into someone else. I know she doesn't always enjoy being other people, but I wish I could do that! OH NO!!! I just wished! Ha-Ha. :-) That's what's so fun about Katie. It's fun to imagine things like that.

I think that this book focuses on some old-fashioned and unique topics. I would give it 2 or 3 stars out of 5. The reason for this lower score is that I think other kids won't be as interested in this storyline. It takes place in a time period that is well known. Personally, many parts were hard to follow and understand. I think it takes an older mind to read and decipher this story. I do think if it was rewritten that it could be easier to understand, just not in the current format.

It's really amazing! I've been wanting this book since last year! When I heard about it from my friends, I fell INLOVE with it! Even when I didn't read a SINGLE page of it! It's the best! I really love this! This book can relate to alot of other kids or teens. Acne takes time, not medication! It's just part of life so don't try anything. Acne is like a person living on you, it's life is really easily to harm and get off, but sometimes, acne can be a very dangerous problem. So I recommend to read this from ages 11 and up. May be a little inappropriate! Other wise, I LOVE IT!
