Sisters

By David McPhail

This book is probably the book that means the most to me. My sister gave it to me about 4 years ago and it means the world to me. The book is about two sisters (one older one younger) who are different in many ways but also the same in many ways. When you have a sister, it's more then that, it's having a best friend you can tell anything to and not feel like you'll be judged. That's what this book is like in my opinion. I recommend this to sisters everywhere ♥♥♥ Thanks for reading -Ajg16's reviews

Things Not Seen

Things Not Seen

By Andrew Clements

This book is so realistic I actually believe I might become invisible one day myself! Bobby wakes up one day, normal as ever, until he looks into the mirror. He's...INVISIBLE?! His parents can't believe their eyes either. Until they can figure things out, Bobby has to stay under the radar. In an act of rebellion against his parents' wishes for him to stay at home, keep his invisibility a secret and basically act like he doesn't exist, Bobby goes outside and observes his town from his new invisible perspective. Bobby bumps into a pretty girl at the library and thinks that his life is over, because, well, she'll realize she is talking to an invisible boy!! To his relief, he realizes that the girl, named Alicia, is blind. She has no idea that he's invisible. But with everything crashing down in his life, he figures he needs somebody he can trust, and it turns out that person is Alicia. They begin to open up to each other, Bobby explaining about his invisibility, and Alicia sharing how she became blind 2 years earlier. Of course, though, the trouble just keeps on coming. Representatives from his state's child care services visit his home to make sure he isn't missing, because he has been out of school for over 3 weeks! with "the flu!" There's no way to show that Bobby is alive and well without exposing his secret, so Bobby's family soon finds themselves in a web of lies with seemingly no escape, with even a threat of jail hanging heavy over Bobby's parents' heads! Will Bobby ever find a way to become visible again? And will he ever face his feelings about Alicia? You're in for a wild ride with this incredible sci-fi book by Andrew Clements! One thing I really loved and enjoyed about this book was the fact that the problems and struggles in the book were really realistic. I felt the same emotions that Bobby did as he reacted to new situations, and the way the writing reflected his school and home life were very true for a lot of kids like me, although I'm not invisible :D. And the solution to the problem actually made sense to me! Andrew Clements has always been one of my favorite authors, and this novel did not disappoint! This book was overall an amazing read, I give it 5/5 stars and I recommend it for ages 10+!

Tiger Eyes

Tiger Eyes

By Judy Blume

Cried, laughed, and smiled at this wonderful story. Judy Blume expressed so much greatness of a teenage girl in this story showing the raw emotion of what it feels like to lose someone.

The Thing About Georgie

The Thing About Georgie

By Lisa Graff

10YrOldBkWorm

This great book keeps on moving with exciting events. Georgie is short. He can’t do many things. Jeanie signed him up for the president play without telling him. Something bad happened with his friend. He is bullied by Jeanie. When he is having trouble, he tries to be patient or he tries to do something that makes it better. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn’t. He also becomes a big brother. The book keeps on moving: One thing happens, and then another happens, but then it’s all connected. I like that it has many details describing each character. I think this book is complete with details. I have read it so many times that I memorized certain parts, such as: “Because the thing was, Georgie Bishop was a dwarf.” Also, wherever I go, I think about the book. For example, when I go to camp, I think of Georgie going to school. You should read the book. If you start, you will keep going! You might think a lot about Georgie like I do.

Jack and Jill

Jack and Jill

By Louisa May Alcott

Jack and Jill by Louisa May Alcott is a 24 chapter fictional book about two friends. They have small, lighthearted adventures over the course of one year. I really enjoyed connecting to the characters on a personal level, seeing myself in them more than once. If you've read A Wrinkle in Time, this book is similar in writing style. My favorite part about this book is that the characters make mistakes and learn from them. It makes them more relatable. I would highly recommend this book to kids who are reading the classics, who want to read a fun short story, or are learning about different sentence structures. From 0 to 10, I give this book a strong 8.
