Ever wondered about your favorite authors' childhoods? Kid Authors tells the incredible and inspiring true tales of authors through the ages, authors that you may have heard of, and other authors that you'll enjoy learning about! Some of the authors had problems like mean teachers and bullies, while others faced family issues. J. K. Rowling, who wrote the Harry Potter series, had a horribly mean teacher who labeled J. K. as one of the "stupid children!" But by 8th grade, she was considered one of the smartest and most capable students in the school! Some of the authors in this book based their best-selling stories and poems on their exciting or scary childhood experiences, like J. R. R. Tolkien, who wrote The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Read about when he was young and faced a monkey intrusion, a kidnapping, and a deadly encounter with a venomous baboon spider! I was shocked and amazed by these awesome stories that I shared with my family. I learned a lot from these fun-to-read stories, and I recommend this book to anybody who loves to read and write. You never know, someday your stories from your childhood may be in a book just like this one!

The book is very good I recommend the book because it funny and entertaining it about a bossy baby so if you like being a bossy person read it.

This is definitely one of my favorite books! In the book, the main character, Sophie flees to paris with her guardian Charles after finding out the english government was not going to let them stay together. In paris, Sophie meets new friends on the rooftops of paris as Charles searches for her mother on the streets below. The book is filled with tons of magic-like experiences and brave, clever characters. Definitely a must read for everyone!

This story is about an Indian teenager named Junior (also named) Arnold Spirit who met a lot of tragedies and obstacles. This book taught me an important lesson: “Life Is Not Perfect”. Some parts in the story were sad and some parts happened so sudden that I wished that I could make changes to it. Also, Junior in the story was really brave, braver than anyone I met before. If I was him, I would never go to that all-white school and I would never join the basketball team. Even if I transferred to the all-white school, I wouldn’t have the courage to meet my one and only friend Rowdy, and I wouldn’t have the guts to talk to my crush Penelope. His persistence determined me that everyone could cross the border and do the same thing that he did. This is a hilarious, sad and awe-inspiring story.

I read this book for BOTB (battle of the books) and I totally thought it was going to be one of those Captain Underpants type books... I stand corrected!!! I actually REALLY enjoyed it! Truth be told, it made me want to pursue a career in law!! Totally recommend this to one and all!! Peace Out - sirireads
