2 years prior to this story Mary has scarlet fever, she became blind. *Now* Mary is leaving her home and family to go to a school for the blind. There she meets two other girls (her roommates) who are also blind and they really make Mary feel at home. She misses her family so much especially her sister Laura but she knows that is she doesn't want to be a burden to her family she needles to learn to take care of herself. I think this was a good edition to the Little House series. Recommended for 10+ Thanks for reading -Ajg16's reviews

In this book, Countdown, Franny is living through a scary time in our country’s history; The Cuban Missile Crisis. My favorite part of this book was the nuclear air attack drill. I liked it because it was suspenseful and I was on the edge of my seat! This is a realistic fiction chapter book. The main character is Franny. She is 11 years old and lives with her mom, dad, sister and brother. Her dad is a pilot in the military. Franny is a normal 11 year old girl. She likes to read Nancy Drew books, pick out fancy headbands, and complain about her bossy sister and how hard her life can be. I really enjoyed this book because it takes place during a time of history that really interests me. I did a research project on John F. Kennedy. He was President during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I first learned about this scary time in U.S. history while working on my J.F.K. project. Countdown was a great book. You should read this book, especially if you enjoy history

tears. tears. tears. I adored this book tears and all. Scarlett Blaine adores her brother, Cliff. So, of course, she wants to help him build a rocket to Jupiter. But life for the Blaines is difficult. First, the financial situation is not at its best. And Scarlett's sister Juli is causing trouble with her hippie life. So baking pies is how Scarlett plans to make Cliff's dream come true. But when a tragic accident happens Scarlett is set into deep grief.

Imani all mine is a very good, emotional book. This book is about a fourteen year old girl and her struggles to raise a newborn while still maintaing school and her daily life. Imani is Tashas daughter. Tasha was raped and never told anyone because she was ashamed so she just tries to avoid what she calls the man "him". Throughout the book you see how Tasha's mother is very strong worded and doesn't show the love and affection towards Tasha. This book is definitely for someone who likes a good detailed book and who likes emotional scenes. This book gives off a lot of determination from Tasha on how she wants the best for her baby and will do anything to protect her. it was very enjoyable for me to read, by far very interesting. I was shocked on how the book ended. I recommend this book for people who like tear jerkers and who are patient with what is going to happen because the end it is such a shock that i never would of guessed it ended like it did.

This is one of my favorite books ever! It's all about a girl that goes to visit her uncle for a month and she learns all about how to take care of animals when they are hurt, (because her uncle is a veterinarian)

This book was AMAZING!!! The way the author, Kristin Levine, uses literary devises and terms was incredibly hooking. The book was sad, yet touching. I was really able to feel for Marley and Liz and see the troubles that they went through to maintain their friendship. Lions of Little Rock was super sweet and encouraging, yet deep. The whole time that I was reading it, I felt sympathy for the characters. It is a great example of true friendship. It is such a great book! I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. This book gets a well-deserved 5 star rating from me!

Great book!

i likw how the stoy was told and that i like the name of the book too

Looks good!

It's a story about four kids, a father, and a house keeper named Cuffy. They come up with an idea where they can all put their allowences together and do anything they want to do alone. Rush comes home with a dog,that they call I.S.A.A.C. after their idea - Independent Saturday Afternoon Adventure Club. Randy meets a lady who got kidnapped by Fortune tellers. Mona comes home with bright red nails and a haircut. Oliver though, only 6, was thought to be so young, and small. The family wasn't sure if he could go all alone. But Oliver himself had other plans, going to the circus and taking a ride on a horse and carriage. This was an excellent book and I hope you read it. I also hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
