Hokey Pokey

By Jerry Spinelli

R.T369

In a world full of imagination , Hokey Pokey shows how kids are left on their own and no adults seem to be found. Jack is almost like a leader to the boys of Hokey Pokey. It is a diverse world for these kids since boys are never really seen with girls. A priority rule for the boys is to never kiss a girl. As the children are on their own kids use their bikes to go places and when they want to reign over the girls that is exactly what they do. Jack likes to cruise around Hokey Pokey for new things to do. Jack has his bike Scramjet that he would never want to be lost. Hokey Pokey was whimsical and everyone had something to do. Adventuring was the top thing on every child's list even if it meant destroying the other's capital buildings. That was how an ordinary day started in Hokey Pokey. The girls had slang when they talked but the boys had strategy and that was all the matter in Hokey Pokey. As the characters point out the little places they call Tantrums or Doll Farm, they try not to make any contact with the girls. Tarzan and his buddies Lajo and Dusty are always up to save the boys from harm. This had to mean that war had come upon them. The boys were sure they could stop any of the mischief girls until Hazel steels Scramjet. None of the boys wanted to go through such pain but facing the girls to get Scramjet was death. Hazel's little brother begged to get it back but she denied him. The girls wanted anything that the boys had and finally they got Scramjet. Albert, Hazel's little brother just wants the boys to have pride and he had no respect for his sister. All of the little kids of Hokey Pokey loved watching the older kids. They were civil when they were young but as they had to grow up , destruction had come. A boy named the Destroyer loved to tear the stuffing out of dolls and everything. If you'd liked to figure out what happens to Scramjet and the boys you should pick up a copy of Hokey Pokey and start turning your pages. Book Review: Hokey Pokey by Jerry Spinelli Review by: RT369

Dragon Run

Dragon Run

By Patrick Matthews

This story is in another world, it is a world with dragons and other creatures. People are judged based on their potentia and dragons basically rule everything. It follows the story of a boy with zero potentia and his adventures which led to him killing the dragons. I can relate to some of the things that Al felt, he felt desperation, despair, hope, and also anger. He has an up and down adventure. I liked the book, my favorite part in the book was when Al outsmarted the dragon that was the keeper to everything, that was really satisfying. I recommend this book to people who like adventure and dragons.

Artemis the Loyal (Goddess Girls)

Artemis the Loyal (Goddess Girls)

By Joan Holub, Suzanne Williams

I reccommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy! It is about Artemis, one of the goddesses at Mount Olympus Academy. The Olympic Games are coming up, and Artemis is not happy that the games are only for boys. She and many other girls at MOA are athletic too, and Artemis and her friends want to stop the unfairness. Besides that, Apollo, Artemis’s twin brother starts to get annoyed with Artemis all the time. Can Artemis and her friends change Zeus’s mind?

Today I'll Be a Unicorn (Phoebe and Her Unicorn)

Today I'll Be a Unicorn (Phoebe and Her Unicorn)

By Dana Simpson

This is so short. The shortest thing in the universe. I read it outloud - the whole thing outloud. A girl wants to be a unicorn. It is not even close the same compared to Phoebe and Her Unicorn. It wasn't long enough.

School of Secrets: Freddie's Shadow Cards (Disney Descendants)

By Jessica Brody

Three Pennies

Three Pennies

By Melanie Crowder

What would you do if you lost the only family member you had? What would you do if you found out your mother didn't want you? You’ll have to read T hree Pennies By:Melanie Crowde r to find out more. Marin is a foster child that has gone from home to home, the couple of things she takes with her from home to home are her Three pennies, Her small copy of the I Ching and her piggy bank with a single dime inside. She's been trying to find her mother her whole life, she has one last chance before she loses her forever. One of the only memories of her mother is laying the grass on her blanket and her mother's head blocking the sun for hitting her head. Marin travels from foster home to foster home before possibly finding her forever home. This book will put you on the edge of your seat! Poor Marin was put into the foster system when she was just four because her mother abandoned her. Her mother is the antagonist in this story. How would you feel if your parent abandoned you when you were just four and still hasn't made an effort to see you in seven years. I’d recommend this book to 6-8 graders, it's a very sensitive topic and kids that are younger might not understand the things marin goes through like, Bouncing from foster home to foster home and not having a mother.
