    nelsonc's book review was featured in Young Children, Videos and Computer Games: Issues for Teachers and Parents.
    This book is called Young Children, Videos and Computer Games: Issues for Teachers and Parents, by Jock Sanger, this book is talking about should computer game be allowed. Also talking why some teachers and parents don't think computer games are good. Talk about good and bad reasons about computer games. I chose this book because it talk about my topic "should esport be considered a sport". In the book there's a lot of good reasons, can give me ideas to my writing. For example in the book mention that parents and teachers think that computer games are bad for body, but some people think computer games can increase the brain development. Anyways I would strongly recommend people who are interested in this topic, or people want to know more about computer gaming to read this book.

    sandyc's book review was featured in The Dolphin in the Mirror: Exploring Dolphin Minds and Saving Dolphin Lives.
    I researched about the background of this book, and expectedly, the author herself is a dolphin rescuer. Furthermore, she understands the dolphin very much. In this book, she talks about the activism of saving dolphins and also shows the readers how smart the dolphins are and how they are even smarter than us. She also talks about why we should stop mistreating them. The most amazing thing is that they can even communicate with humans! The author describes them as the smartest creature except human on earth. Due to I wrote an essay about the mistreatment of dolphins, I began researching about books of dolphins. This was the second book that I found, but it was more interesting than the first book. I think that the author is completely correct. I like how this book uses a funny way to discuss the issue. It makes people feel joyful but also makes people take action on saving the animals. Go on and read this book! Enjoy the conversion between you and the dolphin ~ 🐬

    This is a graphic novel about a girl named Raina. She just wanted to have a normal life as a child, but something tragic happened. She fell down and and broke her her front teeth. Therefore, she has to go through a lot of embarrassing process for a elementary kid. Surgery, headgear, fake teeth, braces. Those had made her childhood not as easy as she thought. It's a basic example of peer pressure, when a girl just wanted to fit in, but instead, something opposite responded. This is a real story by the author, Raina Telgemeier. I can relate to this to my real life perfectly. Since I faced peer pressure before when I can't do what I want, and have to do something I don't want because of being afraid getting kicked out. This is a really interesting book recommended to age from 10-12. It's really funny, it will definitely bring you to a good mood. Enjoy!

    charlesh20's book review was featured in Catching Fire (The Hunger Games).
    The book The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins is the second book of the Hunger Games series. Catching fire is about Katniss Everdeen and her family and colleagues-Peeta Mallark, Haymitch, Eva , Cinna, and her best friend Gale. They all suddenly become targets when Katniss's big act in the 74th Hunger Games becomes hope for all the other districts and suddenly an uprising starts to emerge. Twelve months after winning the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen and her partner Peeta Mellark must go on what is known as the Victor's Tour, wherein they visit all the districts, but before leaving, Katniss is visited by President Snow who fears that Katniss defied him a year ago during the games when she chose to die with Peeta. With both Katniss and Peeta declared the winners, it is fueling a possible uprising. He tells Katniss that while on tour she better try to make sure that she puts out the flames or else everyone she cares about will be in danger. I would recommend this book to the ages around 13-16 which are teens, because the book has some contents that are more fits to the teens, also this book is the second book of the Hunger Games, Same rating on the first book, full star and I love it, the story is not boring at all and contains lots of new information. High;y recommend this book to other readers.
