The series was really cool! Imagine a world where all your everyday creatures are oversized. That is what the UNDERWORLD is like in Gregor's land. He must venture out into the world and save Regalia, which is like Rome but a lot more modern, and dark. Collins wrote a book nothing like the hunger games, and I think all of the Collins fans out there should read it!

This was a great book! I loved how Jack and Annie went back to the early 1900s to visit young Louis Armstrong! It was very entertaining and creepy as well!! This was a very good story, and I love how the chapter titles are names of some of Louis Armstrong’s songs! This was an amazing story!!

So the next day the little girl that had the idea of finding a new name for Unhei brought a jar with names already for Unhei to pick a name she went through a few name but she did not like any of the name so she pushed the jar aside.so se could work for a while. The next day when she got back to school the name jar was not on her desk so the class helped her search for it but they could not find it. So when she got home she asked her mom if she could have a new name like Jessica because all the other kids in her class didn't know how to pronounce her name but her mom said " you have a beautiful name and I think you should keep it" But Unhei didn't want her name she didn't like her name.

This book is awesome! This book has secret missions robots and cool mysteries. I recommend ages 9 and up. There might be some sensitive stuff for anyone younger in the book. So make sure you have a parent read it to you if you are younger than 7.

No one really knows exactly what Cleopatra looked like, but they do know that she was one of the most influential women in history because of alliances with Julius Caesar and Marc Antony. She died young, at the age of 39 after she poisoned herself with a snake bite sometime after her husband killed himself thinking that she had died in war. Her death marked the beginning of Roman Rule in Egypt, which would last another several hundred years. This was a very interesting book recommended for 11+ thanks for reading - Ajg16's reviews

This book is about a girl and the rest of there family trying to survive the holocaust. Right when you open the book it already makes you want to read because the beginning is so entertain right off the back because it starts with the solders coming after the Jews. I made one connection because when Anne frank didn't get any rest because she had to stay quiet and keep quit that made her feel sick,and when I don"t get rest I fill sick I give this book a 5 star because it gives a lot of information about the Holocaust and what happen.

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.
