Earth! My First 4.54 Billion Years

Earth! My First 4.54 Billion Years

By Stacy McAnulty

This is a nice book that mentions lots of facts about the Earth in a fun and descriptive way. It makes the readers want to read the book because they literally think that Earth is a person who is talking to you in a friendly way. It is hard to make planets appear human, but Stacy McAnutly simply did it.

Common Sense

Common Sense

By Thomas Paine

I enjoyed learning about the American Revolution in school, but actually learning it from the perspective of a colonist. If you read my review of War and Peace, this might be a bit like that. This was like War and Peace, but shorter and they used words like "thereof" more often (Not like that's a problem, obviously). It was only 58 pages long, but it still took me like an hour to read (which is really saying something). Thomas Paine's pamphlet sold over 100,000 copies in the first three months, which is pretty amazing! I mean, he might not have thought his publication would have such a huge impact on the Patriots (and now the Loyalists probably hated him. I'm not sure about the neutrals. Neutral, maybe? Whatever)!! This was AMAZING to read. If you want to read it, be warned, it's slightly dry, but if you really want to learn about the American Revolution, then you'll probably love it. My class just finished learning about the American Revolution and I really wanted to read Common Sense. So I did! It's not a novel, or a biography, or an atlas, or a fact book, but a PAMPHLET (Look it up. It's probably in the dictionary. The word pamphlet, I mean. P-A-M-P-H-L-E-T. Easy). Read it! It's good (and thin)!

The Hound of the Baskervilles (A Penguin Classics Hardcover)

By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Habiba Sallam Hound of Baskervilles Book Review A book that is small in size can never meet the beauty standards of literature and possess its richness in metaphorical comparisons. However, this rule was broken in crime thriller novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and titled The Hound of the Baskerville. Sherlock Holmes along with his assistant Watson, notable for their talent in solving mysteries are called upon the moor by James Mortimer to investigate the murder of his patient and family friend. The victim was believed to be murdered by the supernatural hound following the Baskerville curse. This curse is a legend that runs through the family originating from the evil act of Sir Hugo’s when he kidnapped a girl. Upon arrival at the moor after his uncle's tragic murder, Sir Henry Baskerville decides to come back and investigate this curse with Holmes and Watson. To solve the mystery, the all collect different peices of the puzzle after meeting several suspects. One specific suspect was Stapleton whom they were able to track his history and find out that he lied about his sister who was actually his wife. At this point, Holmes digs in and even recognizes that Stapleton actually resembles Hugo's portrait, which might mean a desire for the Baskerville wealth. It has come to Watson that the Barrymore's who were the family servants found a letter signatured LL who was Laura Lyons. They decided to visit her and told her about Stapleton's marriage who spilled the beans about the hound and helped them resolve the curse. Fortunately, Stapleton trained his hound to attack the Baskerville whom was given Sir Henry’s belongings to smell but the younger sibling of the Mrs. Barrymore was dressed in Sir Henry’s clothes. The hound was found killed later when Stapleton instructed the hound to attack Sir Henry, when he was invited to the household. As a naturalist Stapleton treated others as animals as he treated his wife whom he beat after disrespecting and not participating in his plans . After spending a lot of time on the moor and on this case Sherlock Holmes and Watson are winners once again.
