The Wolf Wilder

The Wolf Wilder

By Katherine Rundell

THE WOLF WILDER is an exciting and mysterious account of how friends can help you overcome CHALLENGES. It tells the story of 12-year-old Feo, who lives in the 1910s in snowy Russia. She lives in the woods with her mother Marina, and they rewild pet WOLVES. Which is a very nice occupation. The book begins with some soldiers barging into the hut and demanding 3 trillion dollars because one of their wilded wolves killed an elk. They confiscate Feo's golden necklace and issue a stern warning: If they ever find out that they have been wilding wolves again, there will be SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. But they do it anyway, because why not? Then they get caught and Marina is sent to jail. So, Feo and her wolf friends, along with a human named Ilya, set out to rescue her mother and fight General Rakov, the cruel commander of the Russian Army who is EVIL. This book was very funny, especially about wolves eating toes. And it had a lot of action in it too! It also teaches about the importance of bravery and WOLVES. I recommend it to people who like fast-paced stories with animals in them.

Fish in a Tree

Fish in a Tree

By Lynda Mullaly Hunt

(this review is also in a book report I wrote so if my teacher sees this hi) So many factors in this book make it 5/5. One factor is the way the author expresses the theme of “just because you have a flaw doesn’t mean you’re just defined by that flaw.” Throughout the book, our protagonist Ally, with the help of her teacher Mr. Davids, uncover that Ally is so much more than her dyslexia. She’s funny, intelligent, and a talented artist. She’s more than the bullies think of her. The bullying in this book is also very well-written and realistic. The main bully, Shay, hurts Ally with her words, and shapes Ally’s view of herself. In chapter 29, Shay draws Ally with a dunce’s cap. She is scolded and made to erase it, but not before Ally can see it. When Ally sees it, she agrees. It’s sad, but realistic. A lot of people’s views of themselves are shaped by others, leading to low self esteem. The last reason I’d rate this book 5/5 is because of its ending. There’s no easy ending that makes everything perfect, Ally can’t magically read, but that’s fine. Ally finds a way of learning with her teacher that works for her. She knows its going to take effort to learn to read, but she can see her own improvement. In real life, there is no perfect ending, all we can do is realize that and try to make our ending as happy as we can. We can’t fix everything, but we can try. We can dream of a happy ending, “But these mind movies won’t go into my sketchbook of impossible things, because I know they will actually happen.”

Pink and Say

Pink and Say

By Patricia Polacco

OH My gosh!! that was really sad. Pinkus Aylee-dark skinned and Sheldon Curtis-light skinned. Moe Moe Bay told them to hide during the civil war, and it was not too late to find out she is gone, dead, out of the world. Pink and Say get pulled apart and start crying, and the people that pulled them apart are-happy. " I just want to touch the hand of Abraham Lincoln once more" Pink touched Abraham Lincoln, and Say touched Pink. I kind of touched Abraham Lincoln, since I touched the book

Princess in Pink (Princess Diaries, Vol. 5)

Princess in Pink (Princess Diaries, Vol. 5)

By Meg Cabot

In her heart of hearts, all Mia Thermopolis (Princess of Genovia) wants to do is go to the prom. She can just imagine it: twirling into the night with Michael Moscovitz, her own true love, in a pink floor-length dress that even Lana Weinberger would be jealous of. But achieving her daydreams is more difficult than Mia imagined. She knows that Michael loves her, but he adamantly refuses to attend his senior prom. He's rather go bowling, he says. BOWLING! Now, where's the romance in that, Mia asks? On top of that, her best friend Lilly is dating a boy named Jangbu behind her real boyfriend Boris' back; Tina's going through heartbreak not being able to attend the prom; her grandmother is involved in a restaurant scandal with said Jangbu; Mia's mom is pregnant again; and all the while, Michael remains oblivious to Mia's deep desires. Even as a princess, Mia seems unable to get what she wants. In the end, will Mia be in Michael's arms under the dreamy lights of the prom, or will she be at home eating her own chocolates spending another prom night alone?

The Last Straw (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)

The Last Straw (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)

By Jeff Kinney

The Wimpy Kid books never fail to make me laugh. Kinney has a great sense of comic timing in these books and the pictures really do make the story what it is. What bothers me about these books is the main character's attitude and the way he treats others. I hope that kids see that the reason Greg gets himself into trouble all the time is because of his attitude. Instead of looking up to him, it's my hope that kids who read this book say, "Man, if Greg just treated people with a little more respect then maybe he wouldn't always get himself into these bad situations." I've said it in other reviews of these books before, but I'll say it again: I don't think Greg's physique is wimpy; I think his character is. Greg’s father wants to make a man out of his dandelion-blowing son. To achieve this admirable goal, he is intent on sending Greg off to a military academy. This doesn’t sit well with Mr.Wimpy, who was looking forward to a summer of playing video-games and sleeping....snarfing down junk-food and sleeping....hooking up with the pretty Holly Hills and yep, catching up on some more sleep. The Wimpy Kid series may be considered juvenile and trite. But it’s entertaining and you read it with a constant smile playing on your lips. Sometimes you even snort with glee (well, I did). I say, regardless of your age....pick it up for some instant laughs, dry humour and a cast of characters that is so unbelievably well put together that you can’t help but stay hooked.

Freedom Stone

Freedom Stone

By Jeffrey Kluger

Lillie has lived as a slave with her mama and papa and her younger brother Plato, at Greenfog Plantation her whole life. When the Confederate Army promised freedom for the family of any slave who serves in the War Between the States, Lillie's papa decides to serve in the army to give him and his family freedom. But Lillie and her family receives news that papa had been killed in the war, they aren't freed. The Confederate Army claims that he was a thief and stole a pouch of Yankee gold, so they broke the promise. Lillie knew that her papa wouldn't steal anything. Could she prove that her papa is innocent and free her mama and Plato? I really liked the story and Lillie's determination to help prove that her father is not a thief. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to read about what life was like to a slave.
