good book, kinda funny! read it!

Halley's best freind Scarlet, who's always been her rock, the one she relies on for comfort, is pregnet. This worst part, the father died in a motocycle accident. Halley then meets Macon, the bad boy who begins to lead her down a bad path. This is just, awesome, pure geniousity.

I chose this book for the class because we have been learning about Washington State's history and the effects of change on people and cultures. May Amelia's family are immigrants from Finland and they have brought their cultural perspective to their new life in the Northwest. They must make adjustments to live successfully in this new territory among the indigenous Chinook and the immigrant Chinese to name a few. May Amelia, herself, wrestles with the traditions of her culture and her desire to take risks and live the adventurous life of her brothers. I loved the characters in this book and the unique writing writing style of Jennifer Holm.

Im still reading the book, im not done yet, but so far i love it. I cant tell how its going to end and i like that in a book! Its really great so far, im hoping it doesnt take a turn for the worse...

i am reading this in 7th grade english class and its scary and sad but its really good and reall ygood.

This book is the bomb! I think that everyone with a family member or wants to go into the military should read this book. Frances O'Roark Dowell is a great author. I want to read other books by him.

This book is about a girl named Addison/Addie. Her stepfather and mom are divorced. She has two stepsisters named Brynna and Katie. Its a great book and I advise you to read it.

This book is already really good evan though I am only 3 chapters into itI I think it is going to get great.

This book is supper cool itshas lots of twits and turns and magic:) Its so cool it is like the author of fable haver wrote it! This book is also discrptive.

The Silent Boy tells the story of Jacob from Katherine’s point of view. The background of the story threw way back to 1908 to 1911 before World War 1. Jacob was a “touched” boy, which means he had problems on mental health and couldn’t talk. Katherine, extremely different from Jacob, was a doctor’s daughter who was only in second grade. I personally think this book is deep in its meaning but not within the use of words. Living in a distinct way, Jacob barely spoke and was trying to hide himself. Throughout the words, I could feel the growth of the friendship between Jacob and Katherine. Even though he never talked or looked at her, she understood Jacob through observing and feeling. I like this book, but I personally think the author wrote the story too exquisitely if Katherine was the speaker.
