This book is sad, but also good at the same time.

The Princess Knight

The Princess Knight

By Cornelia Funke

I like this book because there's a princess in it and the king is funny because he teaches her how to be a knight. The illustrations look realistic. Violetta practices the things that he brothers can do better until she can do it better. I like that she surprises her Dad by saving the day and marrying the gardener. You should read this book because it's a fun book!

I think this book is amazing it is about this girl (Marisol Luna) she loves dancing but she's moving and where she is moving there is no dance teacher and she got called down to the pricipal's office and she thought that she was in trouble but she wasn't and when she got in the office the principal said "you are really moving" and Marisol said "yes" and then the principal said "you know we are going to miss our best student" and then when she left to her room she say her teacher and her friend Miss Mendoza which was Mr. Mendoza's child she liked dancing to (Mr.Mendoza and Miss Mendoza were the Luna family's upstair neighbors where she used to live) and they were throughing a party to say we'll miss you and then Miss Mendoza and Miss G (that is Marisol's teacher) and they started to dance. Then two men came in one of them had a madk and the other one didn't the one who didn't have one was Mr.Mendoza and the other person were dancing and the pretended they were old with canes and then the one without the mask pretended to fall (he auctally did fall but on prupose) and almost landed on Marisol's shoes. When they were done the children asked for him to take off his mask he said no then they asked again and then he took off his mask and it was Marisol's father. Then when the party was over they went home they left then their cat Rascal ran off then they faound him and went home to their house they were moving in. Just read it it is a good book.
