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!

Evan is a shy high school boy but in front of his crush he trys to be out going, but little does he know a recent suicide happened in the Murphy house. After writing fake emails between him and Conner he is trapped in his own lie. Will everything turn out right for Evan or will this lie go on forever. I love this book and the word placement is amazing, but this book does handle some deep issues. I hope you all love it as much as I do!

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.

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.

"Across the bay"- it is a story about a boy named Carlito who wanted to find his father. One day he took a ferry and went across the bay to look for dad. Sadly he did not find his father there. There are many pictures in this book describing what happened in this story.

"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.
