When Elephants Fly

When Elephants Fly

By Nancy Richardson Fischer

T. Lily Decker has a 12-year plan: avoid stress, drugs, alcohol, boyfriends, and take her regular psych quizzes, given by her best friend Sawyer, to make sure she escapes inheriting her mother's schizophrenia- if she can live steer clear of everything crazy from 18 to 30, she could evade the looming threat of the mental illness. Lily does everything she can to avoid becoming her mother, Violet- obsessed with Peter Pan and the works of Escher, who tried to make Lily "fly" to Neverland from the rooftop of their apartment when she was young. When she starts her local newspaper internship following the story of a soon-to-be-mother elephant at the local zoo, she is invited to come to witness the birth of the baby elephant after all the healthy publicity brought to the zoo by her previous articles, but when the elephant calf Swifty is rejected and nearly killed by her mother, then put in custody of the circus to which the young elephant's sire is owned, Lily is forced to forget her twelve-year plan to save Swifty. Full of twists and turns, When Elephants Fly is a rollercoaster of a plotline! An inspiring story of courage, and doing what's right, readers will revel in Fischer's dynamic and realistic characters. A fast and delightful read! Enjoy!

The One Safe Place

The One Safe Place

By Tania Unsworth

Devin and his grandfather have lived on their farm all of Devin's life. He has never been to the city, and his grandpa is the only person he knows. So when his grandfather dies and he is left by himself, he decides that he has to go to town and get some help for the farm. When he is there, he meets a girl named Kit. Kit helps him in the city, and they become fast friends. After a couple of days in the city, he gets an invitation to come to a place that the children of the city dream about. This place has unlimited food and water, warm clothes, and everything a child could ever want. Devin and Kit decide to go to this place. But once there, Devin realizes that what they thought was this magical place is actually a nightmare. All the children who live there go to a room and get a shot that puts them in "The Dream." When you are in The Dream, you act zombie-like for a day or two until you are back to normal again. As you are in The Dream more and more, you act more and more zombie-like until it takes over their body forever. Can Devin find a way for everybody to escape this horrible place before it is too late? I really enjoyed reading The One Safe Place. Tania Unsworth did a great job of writing this story. Whenever Devin is happy, I'm happy. Whenever he's scared, I'm scared. This book really shows the importance of friendship and teamwork, and I really enjoyed reading it. I recommend this book to boys and girls ages 11+.

By C.S. Lewis

I read this book for an assignment but it wasn't that bad. It was very interesting that in the end Colin? ( i forgot his name) was actually Shasta's brother. Overall, pretty well written. P.S. I am NOT Ukrainian. I just couldn't find the English option on the list. Never mind. Just forget what i said.

The Last Holiday Concert

The Last Holiday Concert

By Andrew Clements

What's the last holiday concert, you ask. The Last Holiday Concert is a winter story that really shows and shine it's light. This story is about a boy named Evan Hart, who is a popular boy. Oh boy, only if you knew that at his home, he is just a dork. A complete dork-scientist. In school, all students praise him like he's their god. But when Evan takes charge of the school concert, he messes up a whole ton. His choir teacher (Mr. Meinart) purposely chose the students to start a concert because none of his students actually listened to him. When Evan messes up and says something only a baby would say, nobody considers him as a popular student. Mr. Meinart got smug and asked if Evan needed help. Evan gave up, knowing already what Mr. Meinart's plan was already. But instead, Mr. Meinart understood Evan, and was at risk of losing his job. Two issues going around. A whole concert to save. Who will be saving all three? Read this book, and you will definitely enjoy it! This book did great, except I didn't really enjoy the end because it seemed like there would be a sequel. Enjoy!
