Stranded in Boringsville
By Catherine Bateson
I loved this book! My favorite part of the book was when Daneil and Rain saw platupus. I also liked that she was named after a poem. I would recommend this book to someone who likes suspence. I would also recommend that you read this book.

The Thing About Luck (Asian Pacific American Award for Literature. Children's and Young Adult. Winner (Awards))
By Cynthia Kadohata
This book is about a Japanese girl named Summer who her parents went to Japan and had to spend time with her brother Jaz and their grandparents to harvest wheat to help pay the bills. In the story Summer met a lot of difficulties and problems with herself and with her grandparents, especially her grandmother. The story conveyed the meaning of love, and taught me lessons. The words in the story were simple yet meaningful, and I really love Summer because I love her characteristics and really like how she narrates in this story. This is an emotional and dazzling story.
