Johnny Tremain: Classic Edition

Johnny Tremain: Classic Edition

By Esther Forbes

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.

Al Capone Does My Shirts (Tales from Alcatraz)

Al Capone Does My Shirts (Tales from Alcatraz)

By Gennifer Choldenko

This was a decent book. I was reading it with my reading class, lol. So Moose is forced to move to Alcatraz Island for his dad's job: which is a guard for the jail. Moose's sister: Natalie has autism and is hopefully attending the Esther P. Marinoff school soon. Moose also meets Piper; the Warden's daughter who is bossy and comes up with risky plans. The criminals on Alcatraz are also required to make dinner and do the laundry and Piper comes up with a plan: a laundry business at Moose's and her school. Moose also meets Theresa who is a sassy yet cute girl who always follows Moose and Natalie around. So Moose tries to stay out of trouble on the Island, but that's pretty much impossible with Piper and her plans and his sister Natalie who he always has to keep his eye on.

The Once Future King

The Once Future King

By T. H. White

I'm enjoying this book so much, I am sure my #1 grandson will love it. As the cover indicates, this book is considered "THE WORLD'S GREATEST FANTASY CLASSIC". Though I've read many books and stories about "King Arthur", often referred to as "the Arthurian Legends", I'd never read TOAFK until now -- so I never realized how much wonderful HUMOR is woven throughout the book, along with belief-defying magic, coming-of-age adventures and character-building insights. I give it two wrinkly thumbs up and challenge my #1 to READ THIS BOOK!

Copper Sun

Copper Sun

By Sharon M. Draper

Copper Sun is one of my favorite novels. From the story line to the character building. You feel what the characters feel. I also really enjoy how it has two points of view. The indentured servant and the slave. It is a sad realization of history and humanity. But i highly recommend it.

There have been many cruel, lazy, and greedy rulers in this history of man. In this book it gives into on the top ten horribly horrid kings,queens, princes, and emperors. Did you know the first Chinese emperor was man named Shi Huangdi and he was so afraid of dying that he sent explorers to search for magic Elixir? They never found it, but dared not to return and tell him. Read about the other 9 rulers in this book! Thanks for reading -Ajg16's reviews

I Am Regina

I Am Regina

By Sally M. Keehn

Isabella

I am Regina By: Isabella One of my favorite books is I am Regina by Sally M. Keehn. There once was a peaceful family, the Leininger family. This family came from Germany. They came for freedom and moved to Pennsylvania. There are two sisters who are very close their names are Barbara who is older and Regina who is the youngest. On a cold cloudy day, their mother and one of their brothers went to get corn milled. The other brother and the father were outside. Then during lunch, unexpected visitors came to the house. I won’t spoil what happens next. That is what you figure out. My favorite part is when Regina tells children stories about the man of God. It is my favorite part because the kids were listening very closely, and Regina felt happy. I recommend this book to people who like to read and are ready for anything. Don’t read the back. It gives it away. This book is in the historical fiction genre. I love that it takes place during the French and Indian War. It is also based on real facts.
