"Wait till helen comes"is a great book.It's about this 12-year-old girl named Molly,10-year-old Michael,their mother,Dave(their stepfather),and Heather, their seven-year-old stepsister who is mean and cruel to them.Every chance she gets,she lies to get them into trouble.the children get the news that they are moving into this old church in the country.Nobody is happy about this except for the parents.When they get there,they find a graveyard behind the house.Heather finds a grave alone,and she starts talking to a ghost named Helen.They have a lot in common because of what each of them did.(you have to find out).Helen is lonely and dangerous because she lures children into the pond by a burned down house she used to live in.Anyway,Molly is deathly afraid of the graveyard and especially when Heather tells them to "Wait till helen comes.You will regret you ever did anything to me"Read it to find out the rest!It wasn't that scary for me but I still enjoyed the book alot.Recommended for anyone who likes mystery/scary/ghost stories.<3

After I read The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin,I checked online to see if there were any other books written by her.So I found this book.Even though the story is interesting and exciting,I don't like the main character,Mona.she is too impatient and grumpy.But otherwise,the story is great.

The Big Book of Gross Stuff

The Big Book of Gross Stuff

By Bart King

My mom bought this book for me.It tells us about incredibly gross stuff,like the hag fish,who's covered in slime and swims along the bottom of the sea floor,looking for sick or dead fish to eat.This book is disgusting but can teach us about weird facts, and also has many funny pictures.

Roald Dahl's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory: A Play

Roald Dahl's Charlie And The Chocolate Factory: A Play

By R.R.George

Choclate! Choclate! Who has some choclate! I LOVED this book because Roald Dahl uses facinating words example:astunishing, also it was halarious when Agustus Glupe went up the pipe,Veruca Salt went down the garbage chute,Violet Beargarde turns into a blueberry and when Mike Teavee gets shrinked into a TV by one of Mr.Willy Wonka's machine's! Awesome book!

The Adventures of a Girl Called Bicycle

The Adventures of a Girl Called Bicycle

By Christina Uss

This book is one of my FAVORITE BOOKS EVER!!!!!! The author, Christina Uss, tells the story of a very quiet orphaned girl who, one day when she was around four, showed up on the doorstep of a monastery in a pink shirt with a bicycle on it. Since she has no name, one of the nuns that live in the monastery, Sister Wanda, names her "Bicycle" after her shirt. She grows up living and being homeschooled in the monastery. Bicycle is a very quiet girl who has trouble making friends and is happy to stay in the monastery with Sister Wanda, the monks, and her beloved bicycle Clunk. But Sister Wanda thinks she should make more friends, so she signs Bicycle up for a summer camp called the "Friendship Factory" that promises "three guaranteed friends by the end of the summer". Well, Bicycle does not like this idea ONE BIT, so she decides to make a friend on her own terms. Bicycle runs away to bike all the way across the country to meet her idol, a famous biker who is holding a bike festival in California. She thinks she can convince him to be her friend so that Sister Wanda will se that she CAN make friends. On the way, her bike gets haunted, she meets a lady with yummy cookies, gets knocked unconscious, rescues a bicycle-obsessed racehorse, and saves a slow-food food chain. I think this book is amazingly funny and I totally reccommend it!
