How can you use three words in one sentence to express your idea? A no talking competition between fifth grade boys and girls in Laketon Elementary School will last two days. The captains of the teams are Lynsey and Dave. Some of the teachers support the competition, but others don't. The principle decided to stop this competition, ....... How will the students stop the grown ups? Which group is gonna to win this competition? The interesting part of the story is how the students try to use less words to communicate with others. They get the inspiration from Gandhi, who used no weapons or violence to push the whole British army out of India. He was the one thought no talk could bring orders to one's mind. Maybe I should try to speak less and listen more.

Ruthie is just a young girl living in New York City, trying to achieve the American dream until those dreams are put on the line after a car accident that leaves her very injured. The story follows Ruthie's journey to recovery, forgiveness, hope, and love. I loved this book so so much for not only the thought provoking bits and life lessons, but for the melting pots of cultures that were conveyed. Because this is largely based off of the author's own experience, it has a personal touch that couldn't have been added otherwise. First of all, the life lessons and thought provoking bits. I loved Ruthie and I think anyone could sympathize with her hopefulness and kindness. I also loved how her recovery process was used in such a way that Ruthie had to grow up fast and learned so many life lessons like forgiveness, following your dreams, etc. The one complaint I would have is that I felt that sometimes, because Ruthie was bedridden, the story dragged a little. I also loved the other main component I took away from the book, which is that America is a melting pot. One of her friends was Indian, another was fluent in French and English and was from Belgium, their apartment neighbor was from Mexico, and Ruthie's extended family (all Cuban) were featured heavily. I also loved how whenever these cultures were brought up, they were always very warm and celebrated their culture (her parents dancing, their culture of food, her friend's mother making pastries, etc.) and I felt like I learned something about each of the cultures. Ultimately, this book showed one girl's story of recovery while learning about forgiveness and hope, and was able to celebrate cultures from all over the world without making the book all about culture/religion. The book shows that you should always follow your dreams because in America, it's a melting pot- anyone can achieve anything.

i like this book

Deep in the forest, a gang of strange mysterious feral cats dwells. In ENGLAND. That fact was established in the first book. After 28 books a lot of stuff has happened. Most importantly, Fierestar, the main character in the first arc thingy, has DIED. Now the books focus on three new cats: Violetshine, Twigpaw, and Alderheart. Anyway, this is book 5. So Shadowclan, one of the main groups of cats, has disbanded due to not having enough cats and OTHER REASONS. Now there are only three clans because RiverClan, another group, is closing its borders due to rebuilding. And Alderheart is very apoplectic. Google it. He thinks StarClan does not want that and they don't. Meanwhile, Twigpaw decided to leave SkyClan in the last book and recently went to ThunderClan, which is Alderheart's clan. And her sister Violetshine is doing stuff in SkyClan with her friend Tree. So one day Twigpaw goes to the Moonpool, which is where all the medicine cats, who are sort of like Shamans, go to, and sees that a camp has burned down! DISASTER IS COMING. Oh no. Every clan needs to work together, but how is that possible with just three clans? The book was a very enjoyable read, and it was really interesting, but the plot was strange. I could not keep track of IT. But overall, nice book.

Lea Clark is looking forward to seeing her brother after 3 years- Zac had been to college in Brazil! But the reunion isn't picture perfect. Zac is still treating Lea like a little kid, and they aren't getting along very well. Lea goes to the beach with her family-- nothing to be scared about, right? But after a bad incident with a big, salty wave, Lea is scared of swimming in the ocean. She finds she enjoys taking pictures of the water more than actually being in it! She meets a great new friend named Camila who attempts to help Lea get over her fear of the ocean. One day Lea goes hiking with Zac and her dad, and trouble strikes. Can Lea get over her fear of the ocean and prove to Zac she's more mature? I loved this book!! Even though it was more aimed at younger kids than 12-year-olds like me, I still loved the descriptive nature of this book as I took a trip with Lea to Brazil, a country of culture and fun!

Yet again Marie Lu makes my gut twist and my emotions run high. With Adelina still struggling with her loyalty where the last book left off, you wonder if true love can really last through death or if there ever was real true love. Marie Lu will gain complete control of your bodily functions and it's almost impossible to avoid sweating, crying, and gasping. I wish I could read this again like the first time. I won't hesitate to give this book 5 stars.
