KUBO IS MY HERO!

I am a huge fan of the Lunch Lady graphic novels by author Jarrett J. Krosoczka, who wrote this book, Platypus Police Squad: The Ostrich Conspiracy. This book is part story and part drawings, so kids get a nice blend of both and that sometimes helps kids read more. I know I still really like having pictures in my books. First of all, this book is like part mystery and part comedy. Detectives Zengo and O’Malley have a new case: to solve the mystery of what is going on at the scene of a film set and figure out why someone would want to do this. What does movie star Chase Mercy have to do with it, and what is the Mayor hiding? Can the Platypus Police Squad get to the bottom of this? “C’mon kid. We could use a good hot dog after all this.” There are some serous topics talked about in this book about lying, not being honest, and how important it is to take care of the environment because it can seriously affect our soil and water that we drink. I thought it was funny they use boomerangs as their police weapons. This helps keep the violence out of kids’ books. I liked this book and I think it is a book series both boys and girls will really like and read over and over!

I really liked this book! It was very devious - just as it led you to believe one thing - it twisted it and said something else. The two main characters were very likeable and funny, and the way how their backyard antics led to something much bigger than themselves really made me laugh and sit on the edge of my seat for more. The code mentioned in the book was very helpful to move the book forward and the main thing that I learned is that nothing is how it seems. Happy reading! ~ Lotte Parker

Bink and Gollie are friends. In this fun and colorful children's story Bink and Golle Roller skate, eat pancakes and climb mountains. The friends work through jealousy goofiness and have fun.

This book has EXTREME situations that it tells u what to do and how to deal with it .this would be a great book to take deep in the woods hiking(such as me and my family do) one the things is helps you know what to do is be careful touching certain leafs and how to survive a rattlesnake encounter and lots of other things!I actually could this at a thrift store and I was so excited when I could it!I recommend this book to all ages (and hikerz😅) and I rate this book 4/5 stars 😁 😁 Pizzagirl7 😁 😁

I reccommend this book to everyone who enjoys graphic novels and humor! It is about Big Nate and his adventures and life. Every book of Big Nate’s is full of color and humor. If you haven’t read it before, make sure you get a chance too!

Frank Einstein is a science genius. He works on inventions and helps his grandpa with his shop while his crazy parents are traveling around the world for their travel blog. But Gramps is about to lose the shop because of the lack of finances, and Frank is convinced that he can win the Science Fair and win the money he needs to keep it open. On the night he tries to bring his robot to life, he misses his chance. Or so he thinks—a spark creates a chain reaction and builds two robots; and Frank is oblivious. After his failed invention, he wants to create something bigger, and better with the robots help, but his arch-nemesis may prove to be an obstacle. In a science-filled story, Jon Scieszka writes an illustrated adventure that is great for younger readers. My thoughts: I thought this book was a fast and fun read. I liked everything about this book, and I think young readers will love it, as well as fans of science. The illustrations were amazing, and I love the cover. This was a wonderful start to a sure-to-be-loved middle-grade series!

Gertie has a goal. She is going to be the best 5th grader. Her reason for her goal? So that her distant mother(who is moving away and getting married), will realize that Gertie doesn't need her. But someone else has the same goal. Enter new girl, Mary Sue Spivey, who just moved from California while her dad is filming a movie here. All of a sudden she is the most popular girl in school. She knows the most famous child actresses in the country, she knows all the answers in class, she's the teachers favorite. According to Gertie, she is just plain evil. So now Gertie must come up with a new plan. How can she become the best fifth grader ever? How can she become the smartest, the funniest, the most popular? And how can she do it while keeping her friends? I think this book was an interesting view on not-so-average families. Gertie's mom left them when Gertie was very little, but she lives just across town. Now Gertie's Great-Aunt Rae stays with her and her father and takes care of them. And Gertie's father works on an oil rig, so he is gone for two weeks and then home for two weeks. At the beginning of the book Gertie is very self-involved. However, as the book goes on there is character development, and she is a better person at the end. I recommend this to elementary students who like realistic fiction. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

While this book is below my grade level - way below - I actually found it to be amusing to an extent. This story is told through the perspective of Blizz Richards, a yeti who hangs around other creatures to study them. All of them have one thing in common : they can't be seen by humans. So when Blizz's cousin disappears, ashamed after being captured on camera by one of the world's most motivated cryptids researcher, Blizz makes it his mission to find his cousin during the family reunion. He does, and things only take a more interesting turn from there. Spoiler: the picture does not make it into the hands of the 'researcher' I think that as a book for younger children, Sherry's story is a good one. Definitely something I would give to a younger sibling as a gift. However, through the eyes of a more experienced reader, the plot is a little too simple, or coincidental. In all, I would rate this with 4 stars.

this is such a great book. it is the second book in the "flower power" series(cheesy name, i know) and is about 4 5th grade girls with flower names. Katie-Rose is confused about why nobody else thinks boys r disgusting., while Camilla still has a crush on the geeky max. Yasaman doesn't feel ready for a boyfriend, but she is match-making their two beloved teachers...Mr. Emerson and Ms. Perez. Yazwants to get the two teachers together at the Lock-In, and she pulls in the other girls to help too. but when Ms. Perez doesn't plan on coming and Violet pulls out too, the Lock-In seems like it will be terrible. but these girls find a way to untangle themselves of this problem...
