Kids Books - Action

I dicided to buy this book from my school's book fair, and then, when I read it, I almost immidiatly wanted a refund. This book's cover is SO lying. Its cover made me think that they would have pretty wetsuits that kind of looked like party dresses, but they never DID wear those! All they wore were white wetsuits with a colored stripe on it! That is not even close to what is on the cover! I do not recommend this book. Don't be fooled by its cover like I did!

I love, love, loved this book!! It is so scary, funny, and interesting at the same time! It is a MUST read.

Tate also recommended this book in library. He said it was really good.... I wonder if he is telling the truth.

WOW, this book was really good... I wasn't surprised how Cynthia Voigt started out all mysterious... but it was a fun easy relaxing book... the plot was on point and "Mister Max" was very mature and a problem solver.. I really enjoyed this book and even my brother liked the book too, so I guess this easy read was a win-win. :-)... and plus you have all these questions forming in your head wanting to read more and more... I hope you guys will enjoy this book too!

At first I only read this book to get ar points but then After about maybe pg 30 I was hooke and started reading the whole series Please check this book out

this book is the best book ever. My school library has both books 1 and 2 but they dont have book 3

I did this book for a book club and it was amazing. Me and my friend read the whole series in a week because it was so good. It has social issues, great writing and amazing story lines. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys science fiction or fantasy.

Trenton and Kallista have just followed the clues and plans left by Kallista's father Leo Babbage to build a flying dragon machine called Landon. Now they are on the search to find Kallista's father. They hope that they will find answers in the city of Seattle. But instead all they find is a burnt-down forest, ruined buildings, and an underground city. And when they are taken down into the city they find the beginnings of a civil war between the Whipjacks, and the Order of the Beast, a group of people who believe dragons are immortal gods. They have a truce with the emerald dragon that reign the sky above, and who protects them from other dragons. But recently the green dragon has disappeared-and Kallista and Trenton know where-and the other dragons have attacked. After being imprisoned for invading, they are saved by Cochrane, a friend of Kallista father who only recently left the city. Cochrane enlists the help of the pair to help him on several machines in order to defeat the dragons-although the orders think they are protecting the city from invaders. Trenton and Kallista must hide the fact that they killed the dragon when he attacked their city in the weeks before. But through all the work Trenton does around the machines, Kallista is obsessed with the pursuit of knowledge and finding out where her father is. But strange things are going on. Who can Kallista and Trenton trust? Who are their friends? Is Cochrane, the dimber damber? Is Plucky the Whipjack girl with mechanical legs? What about Ander, the young member of the Order who keeps hanging around? And where has Leo Babbage disappeared to? I loved that I was kept on the edge of my seat during this book. I was always wondering what was coming next, and who I could trust. I really liked that it was a fresh fantasy, that combined elements of magic, but also had lots of problem solving and more practical work with mechanics and technology. I would not suggest reading this book without the 1st book of the series. Otherwise it is hard to understand. I recommend this book to fantasy lovers and adventure lovers. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

I really like this book so far, but it makes me upset that Doppy dies. Why couldn't it have been creature!?!?

I love worst-case scenario adventures! They are fun to try and see what happens. This book was about making it to the top of Mount Everest. I actually made it to the top in the book!
