But the mean icy Jack frost doesn't even have a birthday and would love to steal some things from this birthday etc: presents and 3 of belle's magic charms. Now this birthday is most likely gonna turnout horrible. Can Rachel and her friend kristy fix this all? Read this book to find out!

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!

This is the best volume. After the season 10 volumes (vol 1 and a pre order vol 2), of course. It's really funny, and I bet it was fun to write because of how chaotic it was! Andy Price has great art, and hes a Brony! Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, & Applejack are the most comedic trio together. You should read it. It's hard to explain how good it is :)

This is my fav author

This book is phenomenal! I could not stop reading! You should read this book if you like logic, mystery, and close-calls. In my opinion, I think The Journal of Curious Letters is way better than the first book in Harry Potter. You can totally understand the plot, and the book makes sense.

Like most collections of middle grade scary stories, “Only If You Dare” is a mixture of truly creepy, not so creepy, and a few somewhat predictable. Josh Allen’s book does not resort to the traditional horror tropes, not a single vampire or witch, and based on the one completed illustration and a bunch of WIP drawings by Sarah J. Coleman, the art is going to be terrific. Appropriate for middle grade readers, but may be deemed too “tame” by those in junior high or high school. I really love a scary story and Josh Allen shows mastery with this collection of short middle grade horror fiction. It reads like episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark and as a 90s kid. I devoured all 13 stories and I hope there's another one from this author soon.

I expected this to be a kid friendly, off-kilter, but fairly predictable school daze comedy with a Vam-Wolf-Zom angle. Fair enough. I did not, however, expect the witty, deadpan, and clever bits, set pieces, and throwaway lines that really set this book, (the third in the series), apart from more pedestrian stuff. Our hero, Tom, is understandably befuddled by his triple-threat predicament. Rather than melting down, though, he handles his situation, and all of the complications that arise from it, with remarkable sang froid. As a consequence, the book is funny, upbeat, occasionally a bit edgy, and very smart. Tom keeps up a running commentary on all of the action, and his perceptive off the cuff observations, (on anything and everything), elevate the whole project. You could drop the entire plot and fashion this into a decent stand up comedy routine. All of this is aided immeasurably by a funny, manic wingman pal, a handful of smart and no nonsense girl friends, a misunderstood bully, a deadpan/mean/nice big sister, and about a dozen various adults who actually get some funny and wise lines of their own. So, the plot may be silly, but the execution is top notch. A fun find.

I love Splatoon books even if I'm new to the game. Well, I really can't wait to read this humorously written, yet touching series more, and dive into the complexities of both Goggles and the other characters' lives. I really do recommend this series because it is full of passion and poignancy, despite the fact it is in fact manga!! I MUST read all twelve stories!The book series is all tied together, so they all end and start into each other. Introduces a new character, Eight, an Octoling that has lost all memories of past life. Now, he, Goggles, Specs, Rider, Bobble Hat, and Headphones need to find the four 'thangs' that put together will lead them back to home...supposedly. Throughout the story, friendship, persistence, hardworking, and never giving up are essential bits and pieces that make up Eight and his friends personalities. And, finally, Eight goes to the land of the Inklings, where he can now play turf war!! My favorite book in the series! Now in my opinion I believe that some characters like Eight, Emperor, and Emperor's team truly did add on to the series positively. Eight is an individual and is different and proud of it, and a character mentioned extensively. Emperor and his team are mentioned extensively as well and are originally enemies in the Square King Cup but turn to be allies.This really, truly, honestly deserves five stars because of every character, except, personally Vintage did not really add on much to the series, though he was important. The S4 are the basis of all important characters, so, of course they are very important.

This book is so amazing! It may be a little terrifying but not really. Overall the author did an excellent job on this book!

This is a very engaging book that sends chills up your spine. I have read it multiple times and loved every minute of it, even when it creeped me out a little bit. The main character is named Cassidy and her best friend is a ghost.....no she is not crazy.....Jacob is a real ghost. Ever since Cassidy drowned and Jacob saved her life she has been able to cross between the world of the living and the world of the dead. She calls this 'the veil' because in order to cross over she pulls on a curtain in the air and enters the ghost world. Whenever a ghost is in the veil she hears a tap-tap-tap and is pulled towards it in order to pull back the curtain. Jacob does not like it when Cassidy does this, and neither does she, but 'the veil' calls to her and makes her wonder if there is something she should be doing in the mysterious place. To make matters worse, her parents decide to host a TV show on the most haunted places in the world, and they head off to Scotland, instead of the nice beach vacation that Cassidy had planned. She learns that Scotland is filled with ghosts and sometimes the pull of 'the veil' is too strong for her to resist and it sucks her into the land of the dead without her pulling on the curtain. Jacob gets dragged along, much to his irritation, and Cassidy meets another girl with her same talent, who Jacob doesn't like one bit. She realizes that she has much to learn about 'the veil' and that it is more dangerous than she initially thought. The girl informs her that she has a job to do instead of lugging her precious old-fashioned camera around and taking pictures in the hopes that one will turn out with ghost pictures instead of blurry shadows. This book keeps you turning pages so that you never want to stop. "The City of Ghosts" can get pretty scary, but not too bad, after all, I don't usually like scary books but this one surprised me and I love it a lot. I would recommend this book to middle schoolers who enjoy realistic fantasy with a little twist.
