This book is so good i read it in class and i fell in love with it it is such a good book.

awsome

Widge has the rare ability of being able to write shorthand, and when is bought by a mysterious master, Widge is given a dangerous task: steal a play from Shakespeare himself, or else. But when he starts to make friends with the crew, Widge realizes that he can't not do it and now he must craft a plan to save himself. I would recommend this for ages 10+ I read this book for homework but it was better than I expected! I would definetely recommend this. Widge's personality is well crafted and the setting is well placed. The pace is excellent and this is probably the best homework book I ever read.

This was a really nice book! I loved how Jack and Annie went back to this specific baseball game, and how they became friends with some other kids. It was also interesting to see them in a different time period, and how everything was.

This is a great read if you are wanting an accurate account of the Holocaust and World War II from two completely different viewpoints. Alfons Heck, a Hitler Youth, explains the brainwashing that took place among the German youth. Helen Waterford, a Holocaust survivor, tells of her experiences in the Holocaust.

It is a very interesting story and I think other people must read it. Because it’s about time, travel fast through history. My favourite part was Geronimo was saving a maiden from the black castle where she was locked up in a room. I would read this book again as it’s very interesting.

It was fun to see things from neanderthal's point of view and even more fun to see and read about Lucy and Andy's misadventures from mamathoth hunt's to pants-less wandering babies, this was a laugh out loud book , with facts and everything.

the fighting ground is about a 13 year old boy who wants to be in the war. so he goes in the war. The a little farther in the book he realizes he does not want to be in it. Then he is home.

The main lesson in this story is to try to be glad when your sad. First, when the Glad Game was harder for Pollyanna it would be more fun! Pollyanna would always play the Glad Game when she was sad. Pollyanna even helped other people who are not happy or are disappointed to play the Glad Game. Second, she even taught Nancy ( a maid ) how to play the Glad Game! When Pollyanna wanted a toy doll in a care package from the ladies aid, but instead got crutches, she was blue. So her dad taught her how to play the Glad Game! At first, Pollyanna thought,¨ How could a silly game help me find a way to be happy about these crutches?¨, look at her now, she´s spreading the game everywhere! Third, she finally figured out how to be glad about the crutches! ( The book never said how? ) Finally, I would recommend this book for 5th grade girls because the book taught me to try to be glad when I´m sad, and if you read the book, I hope you will try to! Pollyanna is a tremendous book! I would read Pollyanna again!!!

I had to read this book for school, and thought I wouldn't like it because I usually don't like newbery honer books. To my surprise this is actually a pretty good book. If you like the revolutionary war or historical fiction I recommend this book.
