I read it when I was very young and, I loved it! My dad said the book I'm writing was as funny as this!

5 stars--If I could summarize this book with one word, it would be "WOW". In all caps. I just can't get over how amazing this was. I laughed, cried, raged, had deep thoughts, throughout the story--my emotions were all over the place. In a GOOD way. I haven't read such great books in a long time, and diving into the lush world of The Guardian Herd felt like opening a Christmas present. The characters, the world building, the plot--all of it was beyond amazing. I will admit, some of it wasn't exactly the most original (the characters' names, for instance), but that didn't make the book any less awesome. I loved Star, the main character. He's a young pegasus who can't fly, who's bullied and taunted by the other pegasi in his herd. He's also the dreaded black foal--on his first birthday, he will become more powerful than any of them can imagine, and that power will be either good or bad. Star's herd-mates are scared that he'll turn out like Nightwing the Destroyer--a black foal who lived long ago, and who tried to destroy all the herds with his power. So Star's herd wants to execute him on his first birthday. Alvarez makes you feel like you're in the story, experiencing what the characters experience. I felt my heart pounding when Star was in danger, and bursting with happiness whenever something good happened to him. It was so fun to follow him on his journey--he has a caring and kind, yet complex personality that I loved. I could sympathize with almost all the characters, and put myself in their shoes (or I guess I should say hooves). I felt like there was more to every character, even the power-hungry, generic villain types like Rockwing. Another thing was that I haven't really seen many books at the library with pegasi in them--unicorns, sure. But pegasi? Not really. So this was a unique, intriguing read for me. Also, since I'd read the Riders of the Realm series by Alvarez beforehand (It's like a second arc to the Guardian Herd series, except it follows a different pegasus), I found it nice to meet a few familiar characters. So, I did love this book, and it has become one of my all-time favorites. The Guardian Herd is a series I hadn't heard of before it caught my eye at the library. And I feel like I have to put this last part in all caps: I NEED THE NEXT BOOK.

my brother LOVES this book SOOOO much!

I decided to read this book because it has a beagle name Shiloh in the story and I love dogs. Good for anyone beetween nine and thirteen years of age but especially recommended for dag lovers.

The royals were angry because Raven Queen ripped her page off from the storybook of legends. The royals and rebels were having a food fight in the Castleteria, Apple White tried to stop them from fighting but someone threw food on to Apple White's face and the fight continued. Hunter Huntsman threw a soy turkey sausage patty over and it accidentally hit Ashlynn Ella on the face. The soy turkey sausage patty slide down Ashlynn Ella's face and Ashlynn Ella started to cry. Hunter quickly said sorry but Ashlynn ran out of the Castleteria and Hunter chased after her. The two of them left and the fight started back again.

I think I should win this book because I am very poor and have 1 book about Rover saves christmas.

Okay, so I know it’s not Christmas, but I read this book anyways. It’s about Marty and his dog, Shiloh. Shiloh came to Marty epwhen Judd Travers abused him. When everyone starts to accept Judd, a Fire starts and spreads. Almost everyone blames Judd, but Marty doesn’t believe them. As Christmas comes, Marty must step up to the plate and swing.

I look like junie B. becasue the hair. And the glasses. The world a better place when junie B. is around.

Page turner for boys and girls alike! Tom spends a weekend in Peru with his crazy Uncle Harvery, running away from Otto Gonzalez, the finger cutting crook. Car chase scenes and mountain top gun battles are contrasted with the search for Sir Francis Drake's gold on the coast of South America. Will Tom ever make it out of there? Will Harvey regret brining him along, or is Tom's clever thinking just the ticket to get them both home!
