So it turns out that there was a letter, and there was a king. Three feudal kingdoms, complete with knights and all that: EVIELLAN, DAGONAUT, and UNAUWEN. They are the kingdoms in the book, and Eviellan, as you can see from the spelling, is evil. Or at least, it is ruled by evil humans. Tiuri, a native of The Kingdom of Dagonaut, named after the ruler, King Dagonaut, is going to be a knight. Wow. Knights have cool armor, don't they. But first, he must reflect upon the duties of a knight, but his concentration is broken by a mysterious person banging on the door and asking to be let in. The human is a squire, and he tells Tiuri to deliver a strange and scary letter to a knight, one with a white shield and black armor. The knight then tasks Tiuri with an arduous task, to deliver a letter all the way to Unauwen, before dying a horrible death because some Red Riders, horsemen from Eviellan wearing red armor have mortally wounded him. "My feet are going to be tired." Tiuri thinks, and then he takes the man's black horse, which he gifted to him, and rides on. A quest has begun, it seems. So, I shall now rate this book. Laura Watkinson did a great job translating the book. (It was originally in Dutch.) The book has an old-fashioned style, so some readers may not want to read it maybe. The descriptions are nice, and it is filled with action in most parts. However, the book was not very deep; there was character development, but they could have more character. Overall, people who wish to read classics and/or fantasy will like this book

I had the opportunity to receive this book through a DOGOBooks giveaway. I was so excited to learn about one of my favorite animals and get to quiz myself on my dog knowledge! And when I got the book...it definitely did not disappoint!! Rich in fun details about dogs and personality quizzes scattered throughout the book, this book turned out to be a dog-lover's dream!! From tongue-twisters to riddles to a fun dog treat recipe, you and your pooch are sure to enjoy this! I love every bit of this book. Every question you may have about dogs is answered like "What dogs are good for locating people trapped in the snow?" and "Can puppies identify themselves in the mirror?"

This book is is the perfect amount of magic adventure and action. This book takes place in a realm with magic and mystery. A group of kids with magic abilities are taken to a training academy. While they're there the encounter many villains and adventures as they are just kids. Its the perfect book for kids grades 5-6 and I would recommend it for people who like to read.

The book I am reading in silent sustained reading is a book called Good crooks. My favorite part about this book are the characters and the setting. The descriptions of the setting in the book paint very vivid pictures in my head. The story follows two twins named Billy and Jillian who’s parents are crooks who like to steal things instead of buying things. When Jillian finds a poster telling her to buy a dog or buy dog medicine, the craziness starts when Jillian starts a stand to raise money by selling cupcakes. When their parents find the poster, they say to steal dogs. But when they steal the pretty poodle named Poochie, they do everything to get the dog back to her owner. I would overall rate this book 4.5 stars. This book was good for its setting and the characters.
