Granted
By John Anderson
Do you believe in wishing? If not, you will now. Ophelia Delphinium Fidgets is a Granter, a fairy that grants wishes except...she hasn't granted any wishes yet. But the rate of fairy dust has been going down lately, and they won't be able to grant a lot of wishes. So 12 are chosen, by the Great Tree itself. And Ophelia is one of the 12 that will grant one of the wishes. She goes on a long and desperate journey, finding that the outside world is much more dangerous than meets the eye. From befriending a stray dog, to almost getting killed by a plane, Ophelia survives all her difficulties but she must make a choice. A choice that might kill the Great Tree and change the fate of the Granters. I would recommend this for ages 10+ This was so cute and the pace was perfect! The characters were so unique and fun. I loved how the author explained things it made everything very interesting. This could still use some improvement but still such a lovely book. Granted reminded me so much of the book Disenchanted and Ms. Hickory! Would definitely recommend this.

Sal and Gabi Break the Universe (A Sal and Gabi Novel, Book 1)
By Carlos Hernandez
This is a wonderful novel by Carlos Hernandez. The main character, Sal, has been sent to the principal's office once a day for the first three days of school. Now, it may sound like Sal is a troublemaker but, in his defense, the first couple of times weren't exactly his fault. However, the third time, it was because he put a dead chicken into a fellow student's locker. Yasmany, who had picked a fight with Sal, was the unlucky victim. Sal has everyone except Gabi, the very dedicated student council president, convinced that he is a very talented magician and that the chicken was all an illusion. To give Sal credit, he IS a very good magician but he also has a very special talent that no one, except his family, knows about. His talent can sometimes be helpful, but it can also cause lots of problems for Sal and his family. Sal makes some very weird (in a good way) friends that he can trust. He helps them out and they help him in "Sal and Gabi Break the Universe". This was a super awesome book and I would totally recommend it. I cannot wait for the sequel to come out!

Seeds and Trees: A children's book about the power of words
By Brandon Walden
Seeds and Trees has a symbolic theme, when I say this I mean that the trees are a symbol for kindness and mean things people say or do. All though some younger kids may not get the message that Seeds and Trees is trying to tell you I fell like this book is enjoyable for kids of all ages even if they don't know the theme, because they might be thinking about how cool the prince is or the trees. But this book is great for 4th and up. It shows how kindness is always the way to go, because you get a good tree when you're kind and a bad tree when you're negative. Over all I totally recommend Seeds and Trees.
Blackout
By John Rocco
"Black out" it is a great book to read. Book is about family who suddenly lost the power one summer night. There was black out in the city. That night was different. The whole family spent time together having fun, playing games. They liked it so much that after power back on they switched off the lights and had more fun.This book is great, shows how spending time with family can be really fun.Book has a lot of nice illustrations. I recommend this book.
Carmela Full of Wishes
By Matt de la Peña
This book is about a girl named Carmela and her birthday could not get any better. For her birthday she got a scooter and she was finally old enough to go to town with her brother. But she did not expect her brother to act the way he was acting he was working and ignoring her. In my opinion I think that this book shows that if somebody is giving negative to you then you should not be negative to them. This inspired me to be more kind to everyone. In this book I think they show kindness and compassion. If you like books that start out positive then negative and positive again then this book is for you.
Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague (Fablehaven)
By Brandon Mull
So, in this book, it is all about Kendra and Seth again. There is an weird plague going around, changing light creatures into dark creatures- and someone has to sacrifice themselves to stop it. It all began when the Phoenix was realized to be evil. That was when he started making a LOT of trouble... The thing is, this was an amazing book, with so many plots and surprises. This was a book that I just could not forget. I read this like, at the beginning of this year, but I remember it so clearly.
