Kids Books - Friendship
Ghost Boy
By Iain Lawrence
This book was amazing, but really sad in the end. I ended up paralyzed on my bed for a while after I finished, because this book gives a lot of material to think about. Ghost Boy is a book about a teen named Harold. He is an albino. His brother and dad died in a war, (but he denies that his brother is dead, it is too sad for him to admit.) and his mother has become cruel. He embarks on a journey to join the circus. Several qualities rise in the people around him. Living life and accepting it, true friendship, and finding who you are are three great things that this book teaches. I can relate to Harold. There are two groups in the circus-freaks and everyone else. Harold fits into both, but can only be sorted into one. This is a must read for older kids.

Hate List
By Jennifer Brown
I have decided to read this book because I have read a lot of great reviews about it. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat. You will want to read page after page. It is very funny, dramatic, interesting and sentimental. It will keep you on ease because it is so suspenseful. It is about a girl named Valerie who has a boyfriend named Nick. The two of them made this book of people they hate. A few weeks later Valerie has been worrying about Nick because he is always with his friends smoking illegal things. One day Nick takes the hate list seriously and brings a gun to school and shoots students and teachers. He shot the principal and Valerie. He even shot himself and died. Valerie had to stay in the hospital and heal for a while. Valerie has a tough time going back to school because everyone, even her parents, think she was part of the shooting. I have read this book 3 times. Every time I have read it, I could never put it down. I have read many books by this author. She is a two-time winner of the Emma Global Humor Award. That is why I have decided to read this book and write a review about it.
The Chicken Doesn't Skate
By Gordon Korman
Gordon Korman, in my opinion, is a witty author. This book is told from the perspectives of several people, including a hockey star, aspiring movie writer, and the son of a renowned scientist, and it describes the race to save a chicken from turning into a science project - of the life cycle of a chicken!
Giver Quartet (4 Book Series)
By Lois Lowry
I love the giver but I have not read gathering blue or the messenger. I would like to read them because I want to know what happens. #lovethegiver
Dracula Doesn't Play Kickball (The Adventures of Bailey School Kids, #48)
By Debbie Dadey, Marcia T. Jones
Unlike the other titles from the same series, the story doesn't progress that fast. To put it in a better way, let's just say that all the time the children were chasing after nothing at all, making the story a bit boring, talking about stuff that as repeated multiple times in the story. I am a bit disappointed by this one, as compared to other titles in the main series.
