El nino con el pijama de rayas/ The Boy In The Striped Pajamas (Spanish Edition)

El nino con el pijama de rayas/ The Boy In The Striped Pajamas (Spanish Edition)

By John Boyne

Historically inaccurate. Shumel would have been killed immediantly at Auchwitz, (Out with.) And the fence would be more secure and Bruno would be more aware of what was going on as a German child. The ending was rushed. It was like, boom, they died, the end. The ending had no meaning to it. However, the book in some ways were good. It was slow paced, very. But worth a read I would say.

I'm not a big astronomy person, but this book was interesting! It was humorous, yet informational. If you want to know more about the cosmos, but don't want a LOOOONG boring book, this book is for you! Happy reading!

By Lamar Giles

The town of Fry is a magical place located in Logan County. Strange animals live there and weird things happen at Fry. Otto and. Sheed, the town's adventurers, have survived many dangerous adventures in Logan County. But can they make it out of this one alive? One day, on the last day of summer, Otto and Shee go onto Harkness Hill to discuss ideas for adventures. Suddenly, a stranger appears and presents them with a camera.

Soccer Trophy Mystery (Fred Bowen Sports Story Series, 24)

Soccer Trophy Mystery (Fred Bowen Sports Story Series, 24)

By Bowen, Fred

Aiden plays soccer on the Thunder team with his friend Daniel, and they are bound and determined to win the trophy this year. When they go to the library with Aiden's twin sister Ava to get copies of Wharton's The Age of Innocence for school, they learn from the librarian that the trophy is question is a replacement, the original one having been stolen from the library forty years previously. The mystery was never solved, and since the twins' grandmother had been a librarian at that time, they decide to investigate. Their grandmother is 84, and her memory is not the best, but she does give them a few clues. They interview the police chief at the time, who is very helpful and interested, as well as the soccer coach, who is not. Daniel mentions that this is not the first missing soccer trophy, and the trio delve into the story of the disappearance of the World Cup trophy in 1983, which has never been solved. When the solution to the mystery ends up being closer to home than they ever imagined, how will they handle it? Strengths: They are short, strong enough on sports details that I don't quite understand some of them (which is a GOOD thing), and have characters who work really well together. Adding an element of mystery to this is perfect, and a great way to let fans of early chapter book mysteries like Ron Roy's or David A. Kelly's Ballpark Mysteries challenge themselves a bit. The retro cover is attractive, and different from the regular sports books, and there's a bit more sports history than Bowen usually has, which is interesting, but the girl power message remains strong. I'm curious to see if Aiden and Ava get to do more investigation. Weaknesses: Bowen hasn't written much in the way of mysteries, so there are a few clunky moments when the kids decide to investigate that could have been avoided. The slight Encyclopedia Brown vibe will work well with younger students, but older ones who love mysteries will expect a more serious mystery. Think Souders' Coop Knows the Scoop-- it's a historical MURDER mystery. It was a bit unnerving when the kids went to visit the former police chief and he just invited them into his house to chat. Sure, Encyclopedia would have done that, but that seems like a bad idea in 2021. What I really think: Sports books are always super popular in my library, and Bowen's books see high circulation. It's good to see that Bowen made it to first base with this book, but it wasn't quite a home run.

Kristy and the Mother's Day Surprise (The Baby-Sitters Club #24)

Kristy and the Mother's Day Surprise (The Baby-Sitters Club #24)

By Ann M. Martin

I loved this book. My sister owns the old BSC books, so I get to read these all the time. Kristy and Stacey are my favorite Babysitters. (But they all are amazing!) Kristy's mother has been through a lot, and Kristy wants to give her the best Mother's Day gift ever. But what? Kirsty has an exciting idea to invite all the kids the BSC girls sit for and have their mom's take a break from their children. With crying kids, sick children, and mischievous boys, the BSC girls have their hands full. Kristy is sure that this is the best surprise for her mother, but little does Kristy and her brothers know, their mother has a surprise of her own! I liked this book because it was exciting, fun, and inspiring. I suggest it for people who like babysitting, friendship, fun books.

Gone series Michael Grant Collection 6 Books Set (Hunger, Lies, Plague, Fear, BZRK)

By Michael Grant

these are really good books. i really like how the author has written in the perspective of different people but not in first person. also, i like how the book isn't in one person's perspective but changes between. story line terms, creative and indulging. it is very clear and funny at the same time serious. in conclusion, 10/10.

Warriors: Omen of the Stars #1: The Fourth Apprentice

By Erin Hunter

I. Hate. Dovepaw. Even if I sympathize with her for having such a huge destiny, she came off as quite whiny, and not a likeable character ( This is only my opinion. If you life Dovepaw, that's okay. Everyone has different opinions, and I am just sharing mine ) . Jayfeather was great, Lionblaze was meh, even though Ivypaw was a bit annoying, I sympathize with her, I liked Whitetail, Sedgewhisker, Petalfur, and Rippletail, I didn't care about Toadfoot, and Tigerheart just annoyed me. He acts like a kit. I am not a huge fan of books where all cats do is travel. Those three kittypets and Woody came off as quite oblivious and annoying. But Jayfeather's parts were cool, the beaver fight was invigorating, it ended on a cliff hanger, and it is home to one off the best quotes in Warrior Cat history. " Who are you, and what have you done with Blackstar?" 😂 3.5/5.
