Hi guys it's cheezballz here with a new novel report. From my perspective it was amazing. Though it has some violence and hate other than that it was pretty good. You may want to read it when you are in 6-8 grade.

We Dream of Space

We Dream of Space

By Erin Entrada Kelly

I loved “We Dream of Space” by Erin Estrada Kelly. Reading the book from three different perspectives, I soon learned to love Cash, Fitch, and Bird for who they are. Heartbroken at Bird’s attempt to try and fix her broken family, feeling bad for Fitch when all he wanted to do was be nice but was pressured to make fun of a girl, and Cash, who is one year behind and doesn’t think he is good as anything. As the story goes on and the plot unfolds you will see the characters unfold as well. Bird looking forward to the space shuttle “Challenger” launching into space only to find out that it exploded 73 seconds after takeoff. Fitch calling Amanda Piper, who really is a nice girl, a fat ugly cow because she calls him Henry instead of his real name. Cash dreaming of being liked by his crush, Penny, only to find out she is dating a “nerd” called Charlie. The three must stick together to face all these hard problems together. This book totally deserves its Newbery Honor Medal in every single way! Have fun reading this book :)

Sword in the Stone

Sword in the Stone

By T. H. White

Have you heard of King Arthur? Most people have. They know about how he had a round table and pulled a sword from a stone to become king. But this book isn't about King Arthur fighting wars. The Sword in the Stone is about how Arthur, nicknamed Wart, had adventures like getting lost in a forest or almost getting eaten by a witch. One day Wart and his foster brother Kay's governess goes crazy and must be sent to a hospital. She can no longer teach Wart and Kay, so Sir Ector, Wart's foster father, has to find a new tutor for the boys. One day Wart is walking in the woods when he sees an old man. The old man's name is Merlyn, and he is strange in many ways. First, he ages backward, meaning he was born at the end of time. That means that as Wart gets older, Merlyn is younger! Second, he's a wizard who can perform a few spells, including making the plates wash themselves. Third, Merlyn has a pet owl who can talk. Merlyn knows he will be Wart's tutor because he ages backward, so Wart brings Merlyn back to the castle. Once he's Wart's tutor, Merlyn educates him by turning him into different animals, like a fish, a merlin, an owl, and more. Along the way, Wart learns many things he can use when he becomes king. I liked this book because it was hilarious, and the plot wasn't complicated. I recommend The Sword in the Stone if you like funny books or historical fiction books.

Way of the Warrior Kid 3: Where there's a Will... (A Novel)

Way of the Warrior Kid 3: Where there's a Will... (A Novel)

By Jocko Willink

I love this book so much because I can relate to it. The lessons taught in it about pushing hard and never giving up (*spoiler* even when you're running and you feel like you're about to die) are very motivational.

Naruto, Vol. 53: The Birth of Naruto

Naruto, Vol. 53: The Birth of Naruto

By Masashi Kishimoto

I liked this book. This one gave more info on how it all started. It wouldve been better if Kushina didnt die. They could just let her live even though Minato died. Whats up with the story of Kushina's red hair, that part I did not get at all. Still why'd she die.

Riding Freedom

Riding Freedom

By Pam Munoz Ryan

Though almost everyone knows Susan B. Anthony, little people know about Charlotte Darkey Parkhurst. Riding Freedom is based on her life. Born in the early 1800s, Charlotte's parents are killed in a stagecoach accident. She is sent to an orphanage. After her parents died, you would think Charlotte would be terrified of horses, but she loves them. When people say she can't go to the stables anymore, she disguises herself as a boy and runs away from the orphanage. Will She be discovered? I liked this book because it includes facts about a historical figure I didn't even know. This book is perfect for anyone who likes real facts in fiction books.

Bud, Not Buddy

Bud, Not Buddy

By Christopher Paul Curtis, Literature Connections, Holt McDougal

This is a hilarious story with mind blowing characters. This gives you a very god idea of what it was like during the 1930s and makes you feel so much more thankful for what we have, now. The crazy thing about this is you are learning and getting a good laugh at the same time! I would definately recommend this book and am proud to say this is one of my 2 favorite books ever!!!
