Ida B: . . . and Her Plans to Maximize Fun, Avoid Disaster, and (Possibly) Save the World

By Katherine Hannigan

I always see inspirational poems and quotes all around my school, which really made me think about this book. Fourth grader Ida B is always living her life the same, by going outside and listening to the trees talk when all of a sudden the punk out of the trees ,Paulie T, warns Ida B about something bad that is going to happen. Of course Paulie T never tells the truth so Ida B doesn't believe him. Ida B soon finds out she is going to have to go to school and she is excited. When she got to school everything goes bad, her teacher calls her Ida (which you don't call her that because that's her mom's name,)she has to follow a LOT of rules, and doesn't get to have fun. So eventually after two weeks in school her parents announce that she is going to be home-schooled. Everything was fine until a couple years later, on one early morning ,her parents aren't acting the same. She asks what happened and they refuse to tell. Later they finally confess to her mom being diagnosed with cancer. Read more to see what happened! My connection to this book is that my grandma got diagnosed with cancer and passed away a month later.

Jack Blank and the Imagine Nation (A Jack Blank Adventure)

Jack Blank and the Imagine Nation (A Jack Blank Adventure)

By Matt Myklusch

This is a great book! I first heard about it from my teacher, and when I got it I couldn't put it down! It's about this boy named Jack Blank doesn't know who or where he comes from. He doesn't even know his real last name. All Jack knows is his bleak, dreary life at St. Barnaby's Home for the Hopeless, Abandoned, Forgotten, and Lost. Everything changes one morning when Jack receives two visitors. The first is a deadly robot straight out of one of Jack's favorite comic books, that tries its best to blow him up. The second is an emissary from a secret country called the Imagine Nation, where all the fantastic and unbelievable things in our world originate, including Jack. Jack soon discovers that he has an amazing ability - one that could make him the savior of the Imagine Nation and the world beyond, or the biggest threat they've ever faced. It's so amazing! They also have a sequel to it called the Secret War. I suggest you read this book fast because it's hard to get a copy at the library!

Not Quite Narwhal

Not Quite Narwhal

I love it because he’s a unicorn who lives with narwhals and thinks he’s one. Then he sees a unicorn so he swims up to land to get to the unicorn then he finds all of them he wants to live with the unicorns but all at the same time with his friends friends then he finds a way to live with both. I like it because it tells us a message that we all are different some same on the outside but so so different on the inside like pretend you’re favorite color is red and mines blue but somebody’s elses favorite color could be red too but we might have different favorite foods. I think you should read this book or if you’re having a bad day it might cheer you up. I think the nawale was cute!

The Witch's Boy

The Witch's Boy

By Kelly Barnhill

This book was very surprising, in a good way. When i first began reading it, I was a little bored, and almost considered stopping. But I decided to keep going, and so I finished the book. I am so glad I did! The Witch's Boy had an unique plot, something like which I have never seen before. The main character was Ned, who never spoke much after his twin brother. His mother was a witch, but then she had to travel away unexpectedly. While she is gone bandits show up to steal the magic his family guards. The only way to protect is to use it himself. Then he is kidnapped and must escape. Where is his mother? Why is the army gathering? What does the Bandit King's daughter have to do with anything? I recommend this book to all teens. There is violence, so it shouldn't be read by younger kids.

The Butterfly Club

The Butterfly Club

By Jacqueline Wilson

The Hound of the Baskervilles (A Penguin Classics Hardcover)

By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Habiba Sallam Hound of Baskervilles Book Review A book that is small in size can never meet the beauty standards of literature and possess its richness in metaphorical comparisons. However, this rule was broken in crime thriller novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and titled The Hound of the Baskerville. Sherlock Holmes along with his assistant Watson, notable for their talent in solving mysteries are called upon the moor by James Mortimer to investigate the murder of his patient and family friend. The victim was believed to be murdered by the supernatural hound following the Baskerville curse. This curse is a legend that runs through the family originating from the evil act of Sir Hugo’s when he kidnapped a girl. Upon arrival at the moor after his uncle's tragic murder, Sir Henry Baskerville decides to come back and investigate this curse with Holmes and Watson. To solve the mystery, the all collect different peices of the puzzle after meeting several suspects. One specific suspect was Stapleton whom they were able to track his history and find out that he lied about his sister who was actually his wife. At this point, Holmes digs in and even recognizes that Stapleton actually resembles Hugo's portrait, which might mean a desire for the Baskerville wealth. It has come to Watson that the Barrymore's who were the family servants found a letter signatured LL who was Laura Lyons. They decided to visit her and told her about Stapleton's marriage who spilled the beans about the hound and helped them resolve the curse. Fortunately, Stapleton trained his hound to attack the Baskerville whom was given Sir Henry’s belongings to smell but the younger sibling of the Mrs. Barrymore was dressed in Sir Henry’s clothes. The hound was found killed later when Stapleton instructed the hound to attack Sir Henry, when he was invited to the household. As a naturalist Stapleton treated others as animals as he treated his wife whom he beat after disrespecting and not participating in his plans . After spending a lot of time on the moor and on this case Sherlock Holmes and Watson are winners once again.
