The story is exciting! It's about five orphans escaping a bad orphanage and living with each other in a creepy house. It was sad when the dad of Milou takes her away, but at last they all live together. Highly recomended to 7 to 12 years old.

I would like to tell you about a fantastic book I have been reading called "The lemonade War "This book is about a brother and sister, Evan and Jessie Treski. It is in the middle of the summer and a heat wave has hit them. So, Evan decides to start a lemonade stand. Evan is making a lot of money out of the lemonade stand until his sister starts one. Jessie is school, or math smart, but Isn't really smart with people or feelings. Jessie lemonade stand is making a bunch of profit and she thinks Evan is going to walk over and say "Hey, can I join your lemonade stand". But the exact opposite happens. Evan gets furious and both of them start a lemonade war to see who can reach 100$ or more money at the end of the week. Then both of them start to bend the rules by sabotaging each other but I won't say how, because you have to read it yourself to find out. I would recommend this book to people that fight with their sibling a lot, because then you can learn from Evan and Jessie. How can you learn from them? Well you can see why they fight and maybe try to avoid doing that with your sibling or even read how they apologize to each other so if your sibling is mad at you can try to say the same thing to your sibling. My opinion is that I liked this book. The reasons why I don’t love it or is my favorite is because it is so short and here is not enough back story to Evan and Jessie. There needs to be a sequel to this book about before the summer or Even when they are older explaining more about when they young before the lemonade war and the heat wave. I can connect to this book about Evan and Jessie as siblings and how they fight like me and my brother. Evan and Jessie were fighting about money like my brother and I. One time we went to a dollarama with our friends that brought all their money but me and my brother had an odd amount of money and we didn’t know how to spend it evenly. I was mad at my sibling like Evan mad at Jessie because my brother spent more money by a couple of cents. Well I hope you decide to read this great book called "The lemonade war" By Jacqueline Davis by: Gabriel

I just reread this after a year or so, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I did when I was younger. It definitely fills a niche for younger readers, but the story is not as light as the cover suggests. The book was spine-tingling, yet adventurous. In the beginning of the book the main character, Miri, moves to the countryside with her older brothers, Robbie and Ray who are twins, and her younger sisters Nell and Nora, who are also twins. Miri is left in the middle with no attention from most of her family. One afternoon, Miri finds a broken piece of glass from an eyeglass, taped to her bedroom wall. Miri looks into the glass and finds herself transported to 1935, but Miri is in the same bedroom, the same house, with four different people living in the house: Flo, Horst, Sissy, and Molly. Horst and Sissy are Flo's teenage children, and Molly's parents abandoned her so she is living with her Aunt Flo. Molly is treated horribly by her aunt and cousins, and she is the only one that meets Miri. Miri and Molly instantly become best friends, and Miri plans to take Molly home with her to the future. There's only one problem, they don't know how to get back to Miri's home in the future. I read this book in the middle of a "mourning period" because I just finished reading the Clockwork series by Cassandra Clare. I really enjoyed reading about the relationship between Miri and Molly. I liked how the author included two sets of twins, instead of four brothers and sisters. This book was a bit of a "ghost story", and I was definitely scared of Horst. The book was suspenseful, but believable at the same time. The ending was exactly what it was supposed to be, but had an unexpected twist to it. I would recommend this to girls that are 10 and older. -ifeelbookish

The Tale Of Despereaux is a very heart warming story of a mouse who is not liked by others and is different from a mouse in many ways. When Despereaux continues to not help his brothers and sisters find food and does not do what is is supposed to do, the mouse community decides to put him into the dungeon. When he is put into the dungeon, Despereaux does everything to get out of it. This is also the story of a Princess. I love this book!

This book was a whole roller coaster but I loved it SO much. I read it in my class for English readiness and I was IMMEDIATELY obsessed. It was an absolute masterpiece. I loved the mystery, the plot, and especially the HIDDEN message at the end. What an amazing book. Ten out of ten, must read again. That- is a promise. :)

After the bleak and repressive society of the Giver, here is a society that is too wild, where one must fight to survive, and those who can claw their way to the top are the victors. Kira was born crippled, so they wanted to toss her into certain death via mauling by Beasts in The Field, but her mother was strong and fought them off. Now her mother is dead, dead of a mysterious illness, and they want her in The Field. They take her to the Council Edifice, where the powerful Council of Guardians decide whether she lives or dies. A powerful figure comes to her aid: it is Jamison, assigned by the Council to be her Protector. He defends her, saying that her incredible talent in weaving more than makes up for her crippled leg. Kira is tasked by the Guardians with an important task: she must repair the robe of the Singer, who retells her village's history annually. She goes with her friend, the scruffy Matt, to her new quarters in the Council Edifice, where she meets the Carver, a boy around her age who carves the Singer's staff. She learns the art of dyeing from Annabella, a wise elder. However, something's not right. She and Thomas soon meet a tyke named Jo, who is gifted with Singing. Unlike them, though, she is not allowed to leave, she is locked in her room. IS there something the Council's not telling them? I found this novel to be good, but not that good. Warning: it ends on a not really cliffhanger per se, but it certainly urges you, practically forces you to read the next book. It was a real pleasure reading about Kira getting saved and trying to protect herself against her enemies, at the beginning. But the book sort of died out in the middle, with unease being introduced slowly, bit by bit, until the semi-explosive resolution. All in all, it would have been much better if the pacing was a little quicker. It was a companion, not a sequel: you won't be seeing Jonas or the others in this book. All in all, I liked how it had a bigger emphasis on teamwork, friendship, etc., especially between Kira and that little boy named Matt, who has a very interesting way of speaking and an optimistic outlook on life. By the end, you will realize that though the societies from this book and The Giver are outwardly different, they have a similar warning: choose who you trust, for they may be lying. A final note: I don't think this book was all that dystopia as The Giver (now that was a masterpiece dystopian novel): it reads more of a novel about overcoming your defects, both physical and mental, by relying on your friends. If you liked The Giver, you really NEED to read this book (and the rest of the books in the series.)

This story keeps people wondering,what is going to happen next.It is enjoyable as well as very nicely written.It is mainly wrote around the perspective of Raven Queen(daughter of the Evil Queen) and Apple White(daughter of Snow White). The day of Legacy Day brings fear and joy to Apple`s mind. That day she will pledge her destiny,become the next Snow White and live her own Happily Ever After. On the other hand if Raven does not pledge to be the next Evil Queen and give Apple the poisoned apple it could mean a Happily Never After for both of them. The End is just the beginning...
