The Jungle Book

The Jungle Book

By Rudyard Kipling

Warning!! THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The jungle book is an amazing book! If you are an animal lover, love action, fighting, and suspense then the jungle book is for you. I loved how the author keeps you at the edge of your seat the whole book. In my opinion my favorite part about the jungle book is when Mowgli kills Shere Khan and proves him self. There are 5 different stories in the book itself. My favorite out of all is Rikki-Tikki- Tavi, it is about a mongoose who is trying to protect his family from combra and is amazing. All in all and awesome book!!! Highly suggest reading the Jungle Book.

Charmed Life #1: Caitlin's Lucky Charm

Charmed Life #1: Caitlin's Lucky Charm

By Lisa Schroeder

I think this book is an awesome book because it is the life of a 6th grade girl and how she realizes that when she is desperate to find friends in her new school it is important to be friends with people who accept you for who you are, like the 4 friends she had at camp, and how they accepted her for who she was , and didn't judge her for reading a poetry book she had.

Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Boys' & Girls' Library)

By Mark Twain

Ok, so I have read more of the Adventures of Tom Sawyer.So it gets more exciting when you go into later chapters.Im going to start by telling you about the part where at school,he's crushing on Becky Thatcher and his mission is to get her attention.They end up meeting and getting "engaged"But then Tom tells her that he was engaged to this other girl,Amy Lawrence first.They get all mad at each other and all that.Then a couple chapters later,he decides that his Aunt Polly doesn't love him anymore and Joe decides the same thing since his mother whipped him earlier thinking he stole the cream when she had actually thrown it out herself.They decide to become pirates and they also invite "Huck" or Huckleberry Finn to come with them.At first the boys think this is great fun to pretend to be pirates when they catch their own food and make camp without their parent(s).But then on Saturday they see a ferry sort of boat coming with a party of people searching for them and they feel really homesick.Then when the night comes Tom gets so homesick that he sneakes back to his Aunt Polly's house when the boys fall asleep.He then waits till she's asleep and kisses her goodnight.The next morning the boys want to go back home because they don't like being pirates anymoreWhen he sees they aren't kidding he calls for them and tells them his secret.They then get caught in a terrible storm and then go on a log to the church and hide in an unused gallery to attend their own funeral.They then show themselves and everyone is relived and happy to see them especially Aunt Polly.

By Eve Bunting

In the world times can be rough when you don't know how to do something and react. In ‘One Green apple’ by ‘Eve Bunting’ The author never says this but i get enough evidence to know Farah is a particular one and the author does say she cant speak English and just moved to a English country and speaks to any of the other kids and if she had been able to speak to the kids she would probably fit in way better and faster. One Green Apple teaches you things can be hard but you can get past it. This is true for Farah because she made a friend. This shows that you can always get through stuff no matter how hard it is and you don't give up And my second reason is she stopped getting picked on and this means people stopped talking bad about her and being mean this shows that you can always get through stuff no matter how hard it is and you don't give. My final reason is that she got a good drink and stayed with her group and this is important because that drink gave her confidence to stay with the group. This shows that you can always get through stuff no matter how hard it is. One Green Apple teaches you things can be hard but you can get past it. This is true for Farah because she made a friend.

The House on Mango Street

The House on Mango Street

By Sandra Cisneros

In life sometimes it is hard to speak up when you are sad or mad.In the story “Eleven” by Sandra Cisneros a girl named Rachel who’s birthday is today and she is turning eleven. At school she has a problem with her teacher ( Mrs.Price) ;She found a ugly sweater,and asks who’s it is. Everybody says “ Not Mine!” And then Rachel is accused that the sweater is hers. “Eleven” teaches me that sometimes it is hard to let go of things that made you mad. This is very hard for Mrs.Price,Saliva,and most of all Rachel. My first reason is hard for Mrs.Price because she does not accept that it is not Rachel’s witch makes her mad. In the text it says ‘ ‘’Rachel, No more nonsense But it’s not-now!!”. The text also says “ But the worst part is right before the bell rings for lunch. That stupid Phyliss Lopez,who is even dumber than Syliva Saldivar, says she remembers the sweater is hers. I take the sweater off right away and give it to her,only Mrs.Price pretends everything is okay.”This shows that Mrs.Price could be a little more kind. My second reason is that Sylvia needs to worry about herself because she blames that the sweater is Rachels. In the text it says “ Maybe I’m to skinny,maybe she dos not like me that stupid Sylvia Saldivar says “I think it belongs to Rachel”.The text also says “That she makes Rachel feel bad’’. This shows that Sylvia should worry about herself. My last reason is that Rachel needs to calm down when she is mad/sad because when she is sad she starts to overreact a little. In the text it says “Not mine,Not mine but Mrs.Price is already turning to page 32,and math problem number 4”.The text also says”But when the sick feeling and I open my eyes,the red sweater is still sitting on the corner of my desk like a big mountain’’. This shows that Rachel needs to calm down when she is sad/mad. As you can see,the characters in “Eleven” have a hard time speaking up. They go from quiet,to mumbling to talking.From now I am going to make sure if I need to talk,or if somethings not mine.Maybe sometimes it is hard for others to speak up because they are used to being quiet.This proves that Mrs.Price,Saliva,and most of all Rachel needs to take a deep breath.
