Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (Star Wars)

By Rodolfo Damaggio

This book is the beginning of the Star Wars book and movie series. (not counting 4,5,6) One Jedi and his Padawan apprentice, Qui Gon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi, promise to protect the queen of Naboo, Queen Amidala. All three of them head off to Tatooine, with the queen disguising herself and Padmé. They meet Anakin Skywalker, and they have a war between the Empire. Anakin saves the day, but Qui Gon Jinn dies. I gave this book a 5 star rating because once I started reading it, I didn't want to put it down! I made a text-to world connection because I watched the movie several times.

Where Is Stonehenge?

Where Is Stonehenge?

By True Kelley

This book is about how Stonehenge was built and its interesting facts with it. It also talked about multiple people and how Stonehenge became what it is today. I related to this book by when I would help build with my dad . I gave it a 3/5 stars because it did get confusing when they would talk about who built it ;then the next part would be about who owns it.

It has flashbacks that relive what early baseball was like during the Civil War. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because I like baseball and the Civil War and was a book I had a hard time putting down.

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Step-up adventures)

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Step-up adventures)

By Judith Conaway

I gave this book a 4 star rating because it caught my attention. This book is about the story of three accidental visitors to an underwater world hosted by the mysterious Captain Nemo. From their arrival on board the Nautilus, the scholarly Professor Aronnax, loyal Conseil, and adventurous Ned Land are torn between exploring the new wonders of their surroundings and finding a way to escape. They originally went to Nautilus to find out what species of undiscovered whale has been damaging world shipping. However, far from encountering a whale that has wrecked world shipping, they soon find themselves on the iron plating of a new kind of vessel, a submarine. Read this book to find out more. I made a connection with this book because I saw the front cover had the tentacles and the tentacles were wrapped around the ship and the ship looked like it was sinking.

Cam Jansen: The Mystery of the Television Dog #4

Cam Jansen: The Mystery of the Television Dog #4

By David A. Adler

Cam Jansen went to a book signing from a famous dog. The famous dog had white fur and black spots. Someone switched him out with a fake all white dog that had shoe polish rubbed on the exact same spots. Cam follows this strand looking man with a dog and he is cutting up words from a magazine and gluing them down on a sheet of paper. The guy is eventually caught and the real famous dog is back with its owner. I gave this book a four star rating because although it is a very good book and can get a little boring at times. I could relate to this book because once my dog went missing and we looked at dogs everywhere outside that looked like him.
