“Starry River of the Sky” by Grace Lin is an amazing book. There are plenty of interesting Chinese stories and loving characters that you sympathize for. The story begins with a boy named Rendi arriving in the village of Clear Sky in a merchant’s dusty cart. Oddly, his only possessions are a cloth bag and beautiful porcelain rice bowl. However, when the merchant is giving a gang of wine to an innkeeper in the village, Rendi is discovered and thrown out of the cart. The innkeeper sees this and asks if Rendi wants a job, to help with chores around the inn. Rendi sees no other choice but to accept and helps him push the gang of wine inside the inn. After that, he meets the innkeeper (Master Chao’s) daughter, Peiyi. He arrives in a time where adults have to drink wine and little kids have to paint the 王 symbol on their heads to protect them from the Noxious Animals, because it is the Day of Five Poisons. Peiyi shows him around the inn and tells him about the Stone Pancake, which is a huge stone field stretching out into the horizon, seeming to never end. Peiyi tells him it is there because her ancestor moved a mountain that was once on the Stone Pancake. Rendi scoffs and tells her that is impossible. They dislike each other strongly. Later in the story we discover three more characters, under the name of Madame Chang, Mr. Shan, and the toad. We also find out more about Rendi’s backstory, and why the stone pancake ACTUALLY means, along with heart wrenching plot twists that will tear your heart. You will gasp along with the characters, shout with them, cry with them, laugh with them. I loved this book and I hope you did too.

Because I love DRAGONS! So in this story it's almost all about mythical creatures and some made up ones! So a dragon named Firedrake has to leave his home to find the Rim Of Heavens for him and the rest of the dragons to live, so you think Firedrake is all alone right? Wrong! Firedrake is taking his best friend, a brownie girl named Sorrel and now later on in the story, they find a human boy named Ben and takes him along too. Now they don't know that there is a dragon named Nettlebrand he cant fly but he hunts silver dragons! So a gnome tells Nettlebrand and he makes his little servant named Twigleg go after them and find out where they are going! So Firedarke, Sorrel, and Ben don't know this so they found Twigleg and brought him along for the journey! We better hope them luck!

I've always liked the tale of Sleeping Beauty, so I might be biased-BUT, this book was absolutely STUPENDOUS, period. Maleficent wasn't always evil, she used to be a kind faerie. Then a human named Stephen came along. He betrayed her by cutting off her wings, only because he wanted the throne. Maleficent responded by cursing his baby, Aurora. Time passes, and Maleficent finally decides to bring teen Aurora to the Moors, a.k.a the land of faeries. They grew closer to each other every night, until the day of the curse had come. Will Aurora find out the truth of Maleficent? Has Maleficent's heart been changed? Find out in this wonderful, engaging book! Like I said before, I personally loved it! I think it was the perfect backstory to go with the movie. Some reasons why I liked this book are: I liked how they showed Maleficent wasn't always bad, and how the author gave more to the story. I also liked it because of the characters. From Aurora to the three faeries that looked after her, the characters made the book more interesting. I would recommend this book for: Ages 8+, fairy tale lovers, and people looking for a good book.

This is such a nice and heartbreaking book. Faolan was abandoned on an icy river. His mother and father were driven away from the pack. After a near-death experience, Faolan was found and named by a grizzly bear named Thunderheart. Along the way to 1 year old, Faolan learns about surviving. Faolan loved Thunderheart and Thunderheart loved him. However, when winter came, disaster strikes Faolan as Thunderheart gets killed by a rockslide. After talking with the rouge smith, Gwynneth, Faolan seeks wolves of the beyond, hoping to join a pack to be a gnaw wolf. But he gets mistaken for someone who has the foaming-mouth disease. After getting rescued by Gwynneth, Faolan get accepted into clan as a gnaw wolf.

This book is absolutely amazing! I really like reading it. I would recommend this book for Horse Lore lovers. So far its about a kid named Galwyn who escaped from his abusive uncles cargo ship to work for Lord Atos; a horse deliverer. Galwyn goes through a big adventure and learns to take care of horses. I love this book so far. This book is something you would want to read on rainy day.

When I found this in my classroom’s book collection, I was like “At last! The graphic novel every fan of the series has been talking about!” I immediately knew I would enjoy this amazing addition to Wings of Fire, even though I rarely read graphic novels or comics. As usual, Tui T. Sutherland did not disappoint. I loved the spectacular illustrations, great characters, and richly imagined plot—I might even like the graphic novel better than the original book. Tui and the illustrator, Mike Holmes, really did an awesome job on this! Summary: Meet Clay. He’s a dragon who’s lived under a mountain for his whole life—and just from the tales that his guardians—Kestrel, Dune, and Webs—tell him, he knows that the outside world is a dangerous place. And it definitely is. Ever since their mother died, three dragon princesses are battling for a throne. Clay and his friends, Tsunami, Starflight, Glory, and Sunny, are hidden away just under the reach of Queen Scarlet, an evil ruler. But one day, Tsunami comes up with a crazy and maybe impossible plan—to escape from under the mountain, and find their true families, who are out there somewhere. None of them can know what lies ahead...because they are the future of the dragon world. Can they escape? Read this book to find out! Overall, I absolutely loved this book, and rate it 5/5 stars. I recommend it to Wings of Fire fans, or anyone who likes graphic novels!

The True Blue Scouts of Sugar Man Swamp by Kathi Appelt is about two raccoons who work in a swamp, doing jobs and following the stars and the fantastical Sugarman for direction. It is a charming story about frindship, perserverance, believeing in each other and fighting with courage for whats right. I would reccomend this books lto lovers of animals and bravery.

When young magicians Carter and Sadie Kane learned how to follow the path of the Ancient Egyptian gods, they knew they would have to play an important role in restoring Ma’at—order—to the world. What they didn’t know is how chaotic the world would become. The Chaos snake Apophis is loose and threatening to destroy the earth in three days’ time. The magicians are divided. The gods are disappearing, and those who remain are weak. Walt, one of Carter and Sadie’s most gifted initiates, is doomed and can already feel his life force ebbing. Zia is too busy babysitting the senile sun god, Ra, to be of much help. What are a couple of teenagers and a handful of young trainees to do? There is possibly one way to stop Apophis, but it is so difficult that it might cost Carter and Sadie their lives, if it even works at all. It involves trusting the ghost of a psychopathic magician not to betray them, or worse, kill them. They’d have to be crazy to try it. Well, call them crazy. With hilarious asides, memorable monsters, and an ever-changing crew of friends and foes, the excitement never lets up in The Serpent’s Shadow, a thoroughly entertaining and satisfying conclusion to the Kane Chronicles.
