Kids Books - Fiction

Infinity stars--First of all, let me just say that this book made me SPEECHLESS. Speechless in a good way. It was beautiful, and heartbreaking, and...I don't have the words to describe it. Graystripe's Vow was absolutely amazing! Important life advice: go to the library right now and READ THIS BOOK!!! So, I'm a Warriors superfan, and I've been reading this series for about two years. When Graystripe's Vow finally came out, I was SO excited. I absolutely NEEDED to read this! As soon as I checked out this book from the library, I started flipping the pages in anticipation. And boy, was I in for a real treat. --Summary: I expected a lot from this book, and as usual, Erin Hunter did not disappoint. Graystripe's Vow is packed with action, heartbreak, and suspense. The book centers around ThunderClan, a group of wild cats that live around a lake. These cats hunt, fight for territory, and look after each other. There are also four other Clans, called SkyClan, ShadowClan, WindClan, and RiverClan. All five Clans are reeling from a recent event that shook them to their cores. A dead spirit cat took over the body of ThunderClan's leader, causing havoc. Now, the spirit cat is a prisoner in ShadowClan, but the Clans' problems aren't over. ThunderClan is broken, shocked by what happened to their leader. To try and help his Clan, a cat named Graystripe journeys into his past and goes on a mission that might change the fate of all the Clans. Will his mission succeed? --Characters: I LOVED all the characters in this book, especially Graystripe. He's brave, loyal, intelligent, and caring. I think Graystripe is one of the most amazing heroes in the entire Warriors series! I also liked Gremlin, Fang, and the WarriorClan cats (Monkeystar and her friends were hilarious!). I do wish some of the side characters, like Squirrelflight, Flywhisker, Flipclaw, the Tribe of Rushing Water, the kittypets, and Ashfur would have appeared more in the story. --Lastly, I have three things to say: 1) I loved this book. 2) I LOVED THIS BOOK! 3) DID I MENTION THAT I LOVED THIS BOOK?!?! Graystripe's Vow is now one of my favorite books, and I think everyone needs to read it! I would DEFINITELY recommend this book!

This is a great book and I would recommend it. Callum, Aaron, and Tamara are trying to find the spy that is in the magisterium leaking information to master Joseph, and trying to kill Call at the same time! They don't want their friend to be in danger so they decide to try and figure it out theirselves. Will their plan work? Or will it go disastrously wrong like all plans seem to do when Call is around?

I would read Hatchet first, it would make more sense. He is not alone this time. He has a man named Derek Holtzer with him. But on a stormy night Derek reaches for his briefcase and gets struck by lightning and in a coma. Brian had to build a raft and travel the river to a trading post where they are saved. I totally recommend it! 🙂

A spooky thriller, Peeled is a great book to read on an October weekend, leading up to Halloween! Hildy Biddle's looking for a story to write in her high school newspaper. She's stumped until a haunted house in the neighborhood starts to create some racket. She does all she can to write an amazing story, which then leads into some clashing with other newspapers in the town, which then leads to blackmail. But finally, the high school newspaper finds their way, with a surprise twist at the end! Joan did a great job with this book. One of my favorite parts was that she took Banesville, NY, the place that the story is in, and though it is fictional, she really makes it seem real, by adding in details like that it was in apple country, which is widespread throughout NY. She really gives attention to each individual character, and lets each of them grow. Overall, a quick read but a good read!

12-year-old Foster McFee and her mother leave Memphis in a rush with her mother’s Elvis impersonator friend, hot on their trail. Shoving whatever they can along with Foster’s baking supplies and her muffins in their Chevy, they drive for hours until they hit the small quiet town of Culpepper, West Virginia. Foster dreams of being Food Network’s first youth cook like her idol, Sonny Kroll. Foster soon realizes that she isn’t the only one in Culpepper to have a dream. She meets Macon, a short boy, who no one takes seriously. He wants to document a film in Culpepper but doesn’t have a camera. Foster’s passion for baking win the hearts of many people including Angry Wayne who agrees to partner up and sell her muffins along with his fine food; Perseverance Wilson a gardener who is selling her church to a taco fast food chain and Miss Charleena, a dramatic, retired Hollywood actress who can cook. Foster bakes to divert her thoughts from the loss of her father and the fact that she cannot read. Soon Miss Charleena discovers Foster’s secret and agrees to help Foster read only if Foster helps Miss Charleena learn how to cook. As the story progresses, Foster supports her mom to be a headliner singer instead of a backup singer and helps Miss Charleena to step out of her gloomy days and helps her get back to being an actor.

I love this book soo much, it's very good, and in a lot of ways I'm like Emma-Rose (And just because my pic has pink and stuff, don't let that fool you. I'm just trying to look like my fave singer)

When there's a trend, don't count Babymouse out! When texting and surfing the Internet becomes all the rage, Babymouse will do everything in her power to obtain a cell phone of her very own. But when the obsession over funny animal videos, texting slang, and building up an empire of social media followers push her over the edge, can Babymouse really stick with the trends?

The “No-Neck”, fire hydrant-shaped yet graceful, loyal, chatterbox, (drum roll), Manny, is by far my most favorite character in the book. He’s been sent by the angels to help Michael in Michael’s dark times of distress. Michael knows that a world without Manny is like pizza without the cheese. If Manny weren’t there for Michael, what would become of him? They do everything together, and Manny is willing to do anything for Michael. What more could a friend want than Manny? He’s a very relatable character; you’ve probably got one of these Manny’s in your life. One reason specifically why I like Manny so much is because he’s a lot like me. We’re both huge chatterboxes and crack jokes in unnecessary situations. He’s the finishing masala to the book, which of course would never be complete with Manny. “Heat” without Manny would be a heart-wrenching tragedy story, with Michael constantly under clouds. The comedy factor combined with the drama is what makes “Heat” so special, and Manny is the definition of comedy, of course. He’ll lift his head up in the darkest of situations and is always by Michael’s side. Neither of them knows it, but deep down they are as close as brothers, Manny only being second to baseball for Michael.

This is a heart warming book. That also show that dogs known for fighting can sometimes be the sweetest, most loyal!
