Eddie Red Undercover: Mystery on Museum Mile

Eddie Red Undercover: Mystery on Museum Mile

By Marcia Wells

Edmund Lonnrot is a normal 11 year old kid. Well, except for his photographic memory and his amazing drawing abilities. One day his father tells him that he was losing hours at work, making them unable to afford Edmund's school. That all changes when the police come to Edmund with unusual request. Work for them and they would pay for Edmund's school next year. You see the police have been unable to solve a crime because the suspects keep changing the way they look. Eddie's job? Go to the art museum and draw anyone suspicious. If they're able to catch the thieves the NYPD will pay for Eddie's education next year. I liked this book because it was so fast paced. I didn't like the way the adults acted in this book and the twists were kind of predictable. But, I think fans of mysteries and Theodore Boone will absolutely love Eddie Red: Mystery on Museum Mile!

Comics Squad #2: Lunch!

Comics Squad #2: Lunch!

By Jennifer L. Holm, Matthew Holm, Jarrett J. Krosoczka, Peanuts, Cece Bell

This was my favorite of the series. The cutest story was Crazy Little Thing Called Lunch, by Cece Bell. It's about a girl named Ellie who sees her crush, Franklin as a giant baloney sandwich. The illustrations in that comic were adorable! This is a good travel comic!

Funny Girl: Funniest. Stories. Ever.

Funny Girl: Funniest. Stories. Ever.

By Betsy Bird

This book is a great one for road trips. I've read a few of the stories so far and laughed out loud. Shannon Hale's fictional babysitting story about a terrible twosome was both funny and spooky! I recommend this book to anyone who loves childhoods of great authors.

Thea Stilton and the Ice Treasure: A Geronimo Stilton Adventure

Thea Stilton and the Ice Treasure: A Geronimo Stilton Adventure

By Thea Stilton

TJL

Well-written and nicely illustrated, as usual. But I really miss the humor in the original Geronimo books. The sisters are a bit monotonous, beyond their clothing, hairstyle and skills. Also the amount of education info is kind of tiring. A sufficiently good story will intrigue readers to seek them out on their own.

This Book Is Anti-Racist

This Book Is Anti-Racist

By Tiffany Jewell

This book is amazing!! The cover is really colorful, the activities are fun, and the writing is super good! It is a good book to read at a time like this. The book teaches you about yourself and it is truly amazing. The drawings are super good and really colorful! Just by looking at them you can tell that the author probably spent a lot of time on the drawings! The author did a really good job on this book and i give this a thumbs up! I recommend this book to anybody who wants to help in this George Floyd protest or anybody who just thinks racism is WRONG.
