The Compound

The Compound

By S. A. Bodeen

I discovered this book about a year ago and wanted to read it all school year. Finally, I got to read it a few weeks ago, and it was most certainly worth the wait. It begins by telling the story of the Yanakakis family, the most famous and rich family on the earth. They are living in an underground compound, however, because of a nuclear attack 6 years ago. 6 years in a compound is driving Eli's father insane, and Eli and his sisters realize that they need to get out. This book is a thriller that keeps the pages turning. It's slightly morbid and it's a long wait for the book, but definitely worth it.

I thought this book was truly incredible. Samuel was just a kid living the Revolutionary War time period when his parents got kidnapped by the British. Samuel went on a journey to save his parents. He met new friends like Abner, who helped a lot, and Annie, a sweet young girl who is now his sister. He has to do incredibly dangerous things to save his parents. It will leave you puzzled, have you on the edge of your seat, and touch your heart. You must read it.

Dawn (Warriors: The New Prophecy)

Dawn (Warriors: The New Prophecy)

By Erin Hunter

In my opinion, I really disliked this book. One reason why is because its confusing to know where they are at the moment. names.Another reason why is because there are clans and I don't know what clan a certain cat is in. The last reason why is it lost my interest in how they keep trying to escape the cages. My favorite part is when the cats roam around in the forest and when they go on adventures You might like this book if you like Adventure books.

Many Waters

Many Waters

By Madeleine L'Engle

Dennys and Sandy are supposed to be the "normal ones" in the Murry family. But that all changes when they accidently mess with one of their father's experiments. The twins are thrown across space and time, and find themselves in a desert. It turns out they're in the same desert as Noah from the bible story "Noah's Ark" in the same time! The twins have to find a way to get home before the whole world floods. What I thought of it: I was excited that the twins actually got their own book because they aren't really main characters in the other books. I was glad that this book gave us more insight into their personalities. But some parts of the book were like "Seriously? You're really going to put that in a kids book?". I was surprised at that because none of the other books had anything like that in them. I wasn't as good as the first or second book, but it wasn't bad. Over all it was pretty good.

Every Thing On It

Every Thing On It

By Shel Silverstein

This book is super. Shel Silverstein is my hero. I recommend it to anyone who likes humor. It is a big jumble of funny poems. One of my favorite poems is Wrong Way. In it a kid says to bury him up to his neck in the sand so they bury him from the top of his head to his neck (upside down).
