Council of Mirrors (Sisters Grimm #9) (Sisters Grimm, The)

Council of Mirrors (Sisters Grimm #9) (Sisters Grimm, The)

By Michael Buckley

Warning this review contains spoilers. Two years have passed since Sabrina and Daphne’s parents had been kidnaped and put under a sleeping spell. They have been rescued and awoken now, but their problems aren’t over yet. The Scarlet Hand has over run Ferryport Landing! Also Mirror took over Granny Relda’s body and is trying to break the barrier that traps all the ever-afters in the town, so the rest of the Grimms (besides Jake), puck, Mr. Canis, and Red seek shelter with Charming’s army. Then the Bunny Lancaster a.k.a The Wicked Queen shows up to help, she fixes the broken magic mirrors, and they revile a prophesy that only Sabrina and Daphne can defeat Mirror and The Scarlet Hand. Naturally Daphne is all for it, but like all always Sabrina has her doubts. Will the Army of ever-afters listen to a couple of Kids? How will they defeat The Scarlett Hand? Will puck ever take a bath? (Ok I think we all know the answer to the last one is, NO) Find out in The Council of Mirrors. What I thought of the book: Just when I thought Puck couldn't get any awesomer (yes that's a word) he surprised me. But like always, Sabrina never failed to annoy me. I also didn't like Basil (their little brother). He annoyed me even more than Sabrina, even though he barely said any thing. Although I used to think Veronica (their mom) was kind of cool, this book made her seem like an annoying cry-baby. I think that Daphne might have married Pinocchio. I can't believe Sabrina and Puck went like 5 years without seeing each other. They ended up getting married, so I'm not complaining, but I thought they would be at least friends their whole lives. It was a pretty good ending to the series, but over all, I liked the books before their parents were awake better.

The Inside Story (The Sisters Grimm, Book 8)

The Inside Story (The Sisters Grimm, Book 8)

By Michael Buckley, Peter Ferguson

Michael Buckley is hilarious. I love how he take characters from a bunch of places (like Alice in wonderland and the Wizard of Oz) along with all the classic fairy-tales, throws in a dysfunctional family and a sausage loving dog, creating the best (and funniest) series anyone could possibly read.

I read this book because a friend recomended it for me. It is really good, and I reccomend it. it is good for a bedtime book. I have to say, Alot of cliff hangers, good for 3rd/4th graders. Great joy reader, even better library book.

The Problem Child (The Sisters Grimm, Book 3)

The Problem Child (The Sisters Grimm, Book 3)

By Michael Buckley

I loved this book. But it creeped me out a little. I mean, in the story, little red riding hood is just an innocent little girl, but in this book she still is, but she is crazy. Like actually crazy, for real. She is the one who stole Sabrina and Daphne's parents. She thinks that a Jabborwocky is a kitty, and she thinks the Grimm sister's parents are her parents, and she thinks that Mr. Canis is her doggy, and Granny Relda is her grandmother. This book has it all! Excitement, Sorrow, Happiness, and so much more! Read this book and it will be the your favorite, at least for a little while.

Guest: A Changeling Tale

Guest: A Changeling Tale

By Mary Downing Hahn

This book surprised, as I usually find spooky books doing, such as Coraline. I set out preparing to be totally spooked out and bored, but it actually intrigued me... I left out the last star simply because while it was a fascinating read, it did not inspire me to do anything. All in all, worth the time, not my favorite, but that's just me.

Nick and Tesla's High-Voltage Danger Lab: A Mystery with Electromagnets, Burglar Alarms, and Other Gadgets You Can Build Yourself

Nick and Tesla's High-Voltage Danger Lab: A Mystery with Electromagnets, Burglar Alarms, and Other Gadgets You Can Build Yourself

By Bob Pflugfelder, Steve Hockensmith

This book has very funny adventures. I really enjoyed this grade 4 240 page book. Actually I am named after Nikola Tesla and who always wanted to be a mathematician and very intelligent with it. My second favorite subject, science, is a very fascinating which I learn a lot. My parents are biochemists and like to study biochemistry a lot (favorite hobby). Nick and Tesla discover really dangerous adventures like high-voltage. I also liked the mysterious part when they found many gadgets. The best part I liked was the part when they found a voltage lightning lab KABOOM. That's why I liked this book so much and 5 rated it. LOVED SO MUCH 5 star
