This historic adventure brings you on a journey around the Roman Empire. I read about the Celts of Britain that defeated the Roman empire. Also how Augustine comes to England to teach the England people about christianity. The monks wrote books by hand and engraved gold and silver and many colorful colors. Describing the beauty of the Constantinople and the emperor and empress. I like empress Theodora because she convinced emperor Justinian to stay and not run away while the townspeople were rebelling. It describes Muhammad's first vision and how the muslim religion was created. Also about the Yamato dynasty of Japan and how Japan improved its writing system with help from Korea and China. Also about the first people of Australia..this is a wide journey through time. I took a journey through time, no through history. I learned about the Mayans, Incas, and the Aztecs. Also about the spanish conquistadors and the slave trade. The amazing fight for why the earth was round, the revolution of Copernicus and Galileo. About Shakespeare and his famous plays like Macbeth. The fight for the throne in the War of the Roses. Ghana, the trade of gold and salt….this book is about the middle ages and the history of the middle ages.

This was actually a pretty decent book.It's about this young Japanese- American girl that lives with her brothers and sisters in Fresno, California.She gets treated different by everybody just because her race is japanese and she looks different.Her family then gets booted out of their home taking barely anything and are forced to get onto a bus to take them to an internment camp.They live an extremely hard life at the internment camp, living in the middle of the desert with wind blowing in their uncomfortable and unbareable living situations.They had to live in things called barracks, which were outside where all the dust could blow in.After a couple years living in these terrible conditions.The girl (Jeanne Watkatsuki Houston) and her family are finally able to move out of it with thousands and thousand of many other innocent Japanese americans who did absolutely no harm to anyone whatsoever.Just like how the african americans were taken as slaves and dubbed as dumb, and stupid, or as property because of race and skin color.Not fair at all.Jeanne goes to school, she has now grown up quite a bit and is no longer the scared, seven year old girl she was when her family got moved to the internment camp.She does batton twirling and other things.She makes friends with a girl and one day wants to join girl scouts.The next day the girl comes back and says no just because Jeanne is Japanese and is different then white people.The story then goes on and Jeanne becomes an adult and has her own kids,the story ends with her taking her kids on a road trip to visit the old,destroyed internment camp where she was basically held prisoner for no reason.It holds a lot of memories for her.I had to read tis book for summer read for English class and then write an essay on it.I really though it was an important book because it has to do with racial unfairness and injustice just because another person is different or their skin is a different color.That is the theme of this book.Overall,it was pretty well written, almost like a biographical kind of book and also historical too.Anyone who likes books or topics about history or world wars 1 or 2 would like this book.

I liked this book because construction is interesting to me. They are building something. . . but what are they building? Read the book to find out what they are building! Hope you like this review! I recommend this book for ages 4-6!

This book is awesome because it talks about a reading race and when Max wins for the most min/hours read, everybody was amazed.They also were so happy that they won 1st place for reading the most by classrooms.They earned the author visit and it was so fun.I would even want that to happen to me.

The book has a lot of weird writing tips. its also very funny!

This book is a very helpful guide for young writers. I recommend it to anyone who loves writing or wants to be a writer someday. It was very helpful to me and it included exercises, tips, and tricks about being a writer.

This book isn adventures it tells about different sharks that there are and what they eat and how they capture they prey.

Imagine being stuck out in the middle of the ocean in a lifeboat with only a "dipperfull" of water for 8 DAYS. You have lost hope, and crew members are going crazy- drowning themselves, yelling random phrases. When ships come towards you, your heart soars. Yet they turn away, unaware of Lifeboat 12. Kenneth Thompson tells a remarkable story and keeps the reader in suspense. I would rate it 9+, and an absolute must for readers that like historical fiction.

I loved the movie so much! Hugh Jackman is a really good actor!

This is my book review of Julius Caesar, the book by William Shakespeare. I gave this book 3 stars because it was kind of hard to understand, because in the olden times people used different words. Also, the whole storyline wasn’t very interesting. And last of all, it was a play. A play! Not a book. But that is the negative side. I have a few positive notes about the book too. It was interesting learning how romans live. I never actually payed lots of attention to history, but this book got me learning. How Julius Caesar lived, his friends, his allies, and how he died. Read this if you’re interested in history. I would recommend this to kids 9+.
