Ballet Shoes (The Shoe Books)
By Noel Streatfeild
This story is about 3 girls, Pauline, Petrova, and Posy, who have to go into show business in order to get money for their guardian. Sylvia, their guardian,'s Great Uncle Mathew, also known as GUM, loved collecting fossils until he hurt his foot so badly that it had to be cut off. Then, he found three children at three different times and Sylvia named them Pauline, Petrova, and Posy. But on a voyage to some islands, Gum disappeared, and the money he left Sylvia is getting smaller. So Sylvia has to take the children out of school and rent the house to boarders. One of the boarders is called Miss Theo, and she's a teacher at the Academy of Dancing. She tells Sylvia that the children can go have classes at the Academy, and when they're twelve, they can earn money! Pauline loves acting at the Academy, Petrova doesn't like it very much, and Posy loves dancing. (Her mother was a dancer who left her a pair of ballet shoes.) But all three of the children vow to try to make themselves famous. But will they be able to do it? And more importantly, will they be able to earn enough money? I'm not really interested in dancing or ballet, but the author's writing style was pretty good.
Uncle Scrooge: Treasure Above The Clouds
By Carl Barks, Giorgio Fontana
It's so bad. I think I would rather watch the Duck Tales show than read the books.😡😡😡
Dungeon Critters
By Natalie Riess, Sara Goetter

Frozen: The Junior Novelization
By RH / Disney
It is good because it is sad and happy. I read the book before I watched the movie and I am glad I did because I knew that even though it was sad that it was going to be good at the end. I read this book to my little sister a lot.
New Moon (Twilight Saga)
By Stephenie Meyer
In the captivating sequel to Stephenie Meyer's bestselling "Twilight" novel, Bella Swan approaches her eighteenth birthday with bitter feelings. She doesn't permit presents from Edward Cullen, as she already feels his love is more than she deserves; is horrified when Alice Cullen tries to throw a blowout birthday party for her; feels disdainful at the thought that while Edward stays frozen in time, she must age; and all in all, deeply resents her birthday. Haunted by her fears of surpassing Edward's age, she begs Edward to make her a vampire, like him. But when Edward's reaction to protect her is like nothing she ever anticipated, Bella is left shocked, broken, and utterly alone. Months fly by. Her facade at staying calm in front of Charlie fails, she breaks ties with her classmates, and the hole in her chest increases by the day. But when she finally decides to revisit Jacob Black, whom she'd once pretended to flirt with to gain information about Edward, she finds her "own personal sun." Bella's healing process begins. Yet, Bella appears to be a magnet for trouble, and when Jacob holds a secret uncannily similar to Edward's superhuman state, Bella cannot deny the natural enmity beginning to brew.
The Son Of Neptune (The Heroes of Olympus, Book 2)
By Rick Riordan
Let’s go Percy, let’s go! Let’s go Percy, let’s go! Let’s go--, hello Percy! Ah, The Son of Neptune, I’ve been waiting… The Son of Neptune is the second novel in the Heroes of Olympus series. I’ve read (and enjoyed) the first book, The Lost Hero. (By the way, my review of The Lost Hero is up and running on DogoBooks. Go check it out!) But, we are here to discuss the second novel, so The Lost Hero, get lost again. ***CHARACTERS*** The three main characters in the book are Percy, Frank, and Hazel. One is a kid who forgot his memory, second is a kid who *SPOILER* can turn into animals, and lastly is a girl who *SPOILER* came back from the dead. Wondering how they are best friends? Trust me, I don’t know either. But I love them all the same. PERCY- Was a character that I felt bad for. Imagine forgetting who you are and left without a clue for (I think) eight to nine months. But Percy was a well-written character. He made me laugh and cry the whole time… FRANK- Was hilarious! Frank just summed up my entire life with his clumsiness. He is so funny and sweet, and a really great character. His backstory is so interesting and sad that I couldn’t put done the book with Frank’s chapter. HAZEL- Was so sweet. Her life is so interesting. Hazel was a fragile character deep inside. She had secrets and memories that made her happy. She held on to them even though she lived a horrible (past) life. Oh! I was really happy when *SPOILER* Thanatos (or Pluto) let her live. Thank god(s) that she was allowed to proceed to her new life. That made me very relaxed. ***SETTING*** Camp Jupiter was a really interesting place. Not only did I have to adjust from Camp Half-Blood to Camp Jupiter, but I had to also look up different gods and goddesses that were new to me in Roman form. In conclusion, I loved this book. It was fast paced with action and plot-twists that I couldn’t just stop reading. Five stars from me!
The Best of Iggy
By Annie Barrows
This book was okay, but there were some things I didn't like. It was a bit too short for me, and there wasn't much action or adventure. I think this would be good for younger kids, but it isn't my favorite book. I still liked the animated pictures, though, and that's why I rate The Best of Iggy 3/5 stars.
Art2-D2's Guide to Folding and Doodling (An Origami Yoda Activity Book)
By Tom Angleberger
I haven't been on here in a long time, a long time…. Hi, I came here after checking the SF site after a while (to get OY folding instructions). *Allow me to introduce myself.* You can call me Echo, if you need to call me anything [because sharing my real name on here is a bad idea]. I've read the Origami books since Darth Paper came out when I was in elementary school and still like them, and I'm a very odd freshman now. My favorite character is C-3P0 obviously but I also like Yoda, Old Ben, and a lot of characters including Jocasta, was it? (from the Clone Wars 'Lightsaber Lost') and Chopper. [I actually think Jar-Jar Binks (!) is a little funny.] I am a Master Doodler and I love to read, but really the only thing I've managed to fold was a few Darth Papers (which I lost).But I HAVE created my own SW human, protocol droid, and Wookie characters. My favorite movie is Star Wars and I'm going to see 'The Force Awakens' today (bringing a Origami Yoda with me) but I also really like the Hobbit, book and movie, The Two Towers by J.R.R Tolkien, WondLa, and How to Train Your Dragon, book and movie. Anyways, I have read all the OY books and even been to the Smithsonian myself, as well as 5 Harry Potter books I think and up to the Prisoner of Askaban. (I really like her writing). Oh and I'm moving to Europe from America in a few months. Hamburgers are Plastic Dinosaurs, because everything else is awesome. I agree with Murky on that. May the Force be with you! *hums To The Sky by Owl City* And it would be awesome if there was an Origami Yoda movie… -Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Adventures from the Land of Stories: The Mother Goose Diaries
By Chris Colfer
This book was very good ! You get to know another side of the sarcastic old Mother Goose. One of my favorite parts was the gander part. I thought it was funny. I pretty much liked all of It! It explains some history such as royals, plagues, civil, women and LGBT rights. I also thought it was funny when she found Amelia Earhart. This is a great book to get to know Mother Goose more. It will make you laugh out loud.

I watched the movie. It was SO GOOD. I like Bella and Edward the best. Jacob is the annoying one.
