Kids Books - Historical

Such an interesting book! I loved the pictures, they were drawn well and the perspective was written well. I would recommend this for ages 8+

This was such an amazing book, I really want you to read it. It is a romance but it's still really good!❤️😊🤗😋💚😘😍

This book was a spectacular one! The story itself was very sad, realistic to say the least, no sugar-coat. It exposes the history beside what happened with the nazis while at the same time making the story very entertaining. I saw the Scholastic videos, and the author took extra measures to feel what Lina was feeling, and that made the story so much better.

This book is so good! It's 1969, and Mamie and her classmates are all given assignments to write letters to astronauts. Only Mamie writes to Michael Collins, the astronaut who will never walk on the moon, because he must stay with the ship, and after this trip NASA will never use him again, because there are so many other astronauts who want to go to space. She tells him about her family--her mom, her dad, her older sister Eleanor, her other sister Bess, her best friend Buster, and her cat. One night, her mom and dad have a fight, and her mom leaves, and soon after her dad tries to go after her. Eleanor, who moved out some years ago, doesn't stay long, and Bess leaves to stay with her boyfriend, and even Campbell the cat runs away. She had tried to throw a "Moonwalk Party", something her mom had wanted to do but her dad had objected, and then Mom left. But with no one there except Buster, is her party a lost cause? Will her parents get a divorce? And will the astronauts get to and from the moon safely?

I actually won this book from DOGO, and I read it over and over! There are so many cool stories! My favorite is when someone left a cat in a library drop-box and the librarian took it in as the library’s mascot. (It is on the last page you can turn to, bottom left) I TOTALLY recommend this book!

*Spoiler This book was mediocre. First of all, the beginning of the story was confusing. There were too many things going on and it was hard to follow. The plot was interesting overall and I liked the characters and their personalities. For example, Jack's british accent made it fun to read aloud. One thing though is that, as the story continued, lot of things that happened were predictable like when they found out that Charlie Green was Jack's son. For these reasons I give this book 3 stars.

This new installment in the Cahill family secrets certainly lives up to its predecessors. Dan and Amy Cahill are having fun living with their cousins and pulling off secret operations, and taking turns being the leader of the group. Then one day the CIA knocks on their door-they have a new mission. The government had been working on a top-secret disease that could knock out millions. But it was stolen by one of their own, the traitor Sinead Starling. So Dan, Amy and the other Cahills set off on an adventure to retrieve the poison and try to find out what Sinead Starling is about to. But finding out the truth might be harder than they thought, and there are others out there against the Cahills. Will the Cahills be able to stop the outbreak of a disease so powerful that it could wipe out the world? And find the truth about their rogue cousin? One part I liked international places in this book-specifically Cuba, which Sinead is targeting. The government plays a big part, and the tense relationship between the US and Cuba as well. It just made everything a little bit more interesting and tricky. Like other books in the 39 Clues, Super-special Outbreak is hair-raising, with with twists around every corner. I couldn't put it down! I hope there are more coming! I recommend this book(and this series), to anybody 4th grade and up. I believe for most younger than that the book would be too violent. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

Have you ever seen Bigfoot? Tobin Sky plans to. Lemonade LIberty Witt is a girl whose mom has recently passed away, and now she must live with her grandfather, Charlie. Here she meets Tobin Sky, CEO of Bigfoot Detectives Inc. After taking the oath, Lem is now an assistant at Bigfoot Detective Inc. They may have a clue when a resident of Willow Creek calls. Every clue gets Lem closer to solving the Bigfoot mystery, and accepting her new family. This was a cool book, with an interesting idea. I have never read a fictional book on the topic of Bigfoot. The characters were also very interesting. However, at time you cannot relate to the characters very well. You should try this book!

Sense and Sensibility is the story of the Dashwood sisters, particularly focused on Elinor and Marianne and their various romances. Elinor was my favorite character, because I am able to relate most to her. One of my favorite parts of the book is the relationship between the two sisters, and the differences and stark contrast between them. Yet, they still have that connection and confide in each other. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars, and I would recommend this book to romance booklovers and Jane Austen fans. I do not think it is a book that is meant for, or interest young readers.
