Kids Books - Life

The sequel to, "Just as Long as We're Together," is told in Rachel's perspective. It was pretty good, not one of my favorite Judy Blume books, but I still liked it. Rachel's older brother Charles had been sent to boarding school but he got expelled and is now living with Rachel and her family again. Rachel is fed up with him and feels like he is tearing her family apart. She just wants something good to happen in her life, but she doesn't feel like talking to her friends about her problems.

Aluna has lived her entire life under the sea. She is a Coral Kampii - a splinter of humans that came to live in the sea generations ago to escape the horrors and dangers of the above world. She is only a day away from getting her tail and being confined to the water forever when she sees her friend floating dead in the water. Her breathing shell - the shells attached to their throats that allow them to breathe under water - had broken, causing her to drown. When she reports it to the Elders, she is surprised at their obstinance: ‘no one will venture out to the Above World’, they say, ‘no one will go looking for HydroTek, the tech company that made the necklaces’, ‘these deaths were just accidents’. Aluna knows the survival of her fellow Kampii and the city are in danger so she rejects her tail and escapes above in a last effort to save her people (and escape the fate that they’ve laid out for her - who wants to stay at home safe all day so she can rear children? She wants to be a hunter!) But can Aluna and her tech-savvy best friend Hoku survive in a world full of dangerous no-longer-humans, modified to live in their extreme environments as a cause of overcrowding and save their city too? This is a dystopian novel set in a world so far in the future where overpopulation has led humans to adapt to live in harsher environments - growing tails, wings, horse hooves, etc. It’s a very engaging story and is very suspenseful, kind of scary, but very exciting. It teaches to think beyond the set boundaries and to think before you act. Loyalty and friendship were very evident themes and the technology was like a kind of magic. I think this is a great read that most kids should enjoy.

Captain Underpants would be an amazing book if you like pranks, and lots of fooling around! The two troublemakers George, and Harold end up turning their grumpy, old teacher into a horrible super villain. Captain Underpants needs to stop her from taking over the whole world. I think this is the best book I have ever read. This would be a great book for fifth and sixth graders.

This book was fantastic but out of 5 stars I will choose 4. I really loved George’s and Harold’s invention. I thought it was funny how Bionic Booger Boy doesn’t like tissues but he likes water. I also loved how creative George and Harold are when they make comic books. It is interesting how even though Melvin hates George and Harold they just mind their own business. I also loved how they always stick together when it comes to a problem. When I saw this book there was a show on it so I watched it and it was amazing just like the book. I really recommend you to read the book if you like comedy books.

it was cool and very cool and exiting and awesome. i liked it and it was good but not as good as i wanted

Dav Pilkey's eighth epic novel promises evil, horror, and "laffs," and delivers all three. In this unusual episode, George and Harold take a wrong turn somewhere and wind up in a surrealistic alternate reality where everything is the opposite of what they are used to. As they try to adjust to a place where teachers are nice and cafeteria food is good, our heroes encounter evil versions of themselves. Unless our duo can stop them, these evil twins plan to destroy their hometown. Thats when Great granny girdle and Boxer boy come to save the twins and Captain underpants from their doom! The evil version of George and Harold plus Captain blunderpants are defeated and the world is safe again.. Now, what could possibly go wrong?...

I got this book series for Christmas after reading about the first book, "The Giver" in class. I highly recommend the series, even if I didn't read them all because I know that they are very unique in the way Lois Lowry writes them. Every time I read them, I feel happy because they aren't the usual magical animal kind of books, kids moving to new schools and states, or any kids dealing with the loss of someone(even though those are pretty good, it isn't as unique as you think it is, but still very inspirational).

This book is amazing! I would for sure recommend this book to any one that feels like an out law! I'm in fifth grade as well and I relate to Robin. I love the part where Robin makes a new friend. This book is both funny and interesting which makes this it so unique! You should read this story because it will cure your boredom!

A Wish In The Dark by Christina Soontornvat is about Pong that escapes prison while Nok chases him. Pong’s friend Somkit secretly helps Pong escape from prison after the governor comes. Pong comes to a tiny village almost drowning, and stealing food from a temple someone stopped him. Father Cham helped hide him until Nok finds Pong, then he jumped on a boat and the villagers are trying to find him. In Chattanna Pong fell into the water and his friend helps him get out of the water. While his friend takes him to a hiding place in the town. Nok found out where Pong is in Chattanna. Somkit found a way to make sun orbs that are gold. The hiding place caught on fire and all Somkit’s work got destroyed! I liked this book because it was about a kid who tries to find his own right in the city. Will Pong and Somkit survive the fire? If you want to find out read the book.
