This is a very classical novel, it contains many short adventures about Sherlock Holmes. All of them are full of mystery and very interesting. The plots are compact that let people cannot realise what happened yet, then the criminals are arrested. I love the way which Conan Doyle used to describe characters. Although there are many characters in this novel. but I can clearly remember each of them. Because the author used many adjective to describe each of them. "The Final Problem" is my favourite stories of this book. Although Sherlock died in this story, the plots are still very interesting. Sherlock and professor Moriarty are both died. The process of the conflict between them is very thrilling.

Imagine being stuck out in the middle of the ocean in a lifeboat with only a "dipperfull" of water for 8 DAYS. You have lost hope, and crew members are going crazy- drowning themselves, yelling random phrases. When ships come towards you, your heart soars. Yet they turn away, unaware of Lifeboat 12. Kenneth Thompson tells a remarkable story and keeps the reader in suspense. I would rate it 9+, and an absolute must for readers that like historical fiction.

i like this book because it is fun and interesting. it is about this litle girl who has her life in the big woods. it is fun because it seems so fun and exiting exept the time where you eat the goose bird bear and other disgusting stuf. it was hnot as pretty sight. it was also fun because i felt like i was in here. it was funny when the little girl was laughing with her sister and her father. i didnt think that laura would ever grow older because she has to give every thing to baby Carrie. i would also do thsat but since i am not there i am pretty lucky. i wanteed to kepp on reading it.

This was a great book! I loved reading about how Melody was trying to fix the park with her friends and how she sang with her brother Dwayne! I really loved the details and how famous songs were included! I love the American Girl books!

This was a great book! I loved reading about Jack and Annie’s adventure to the 1889 Worlds’s Fair, and how they needed to find the magicians before the evil sorcerer! I also really enjoyed learning about some of the inventions of that time!

This was a great book! I loved how Jack and Annie went back to the early 1900s to visit young Louis Armstrong! It was very entertaining and creepy as well!! This was a very good story, and I love how the chapter titles are names of some of Louis Armstrong’s songs! This was an amazing story!!

Her death marked the beginning of Roman Rule in Egypt, which would last another several hundred years. This was a very interesting book recommended for 11+ thanks for reading - Ajg16's reviews

This book was really interesting! It is about Timoty and Phillip again but in a prequel-sequel style. This book gives a backstory on Timothy's life as a kid all the way through his middle-aged years. It talks about how he learned to survive on the cay and his experience with ships. In Phillip's chapters, it talks about Phillip and his life after he was rescued from the cay. It gives a story of what he had to go through to get his sight back and to fulfill his dream of seeing the cay with his own eyes. Timothy has a dream too. He wants to get his own ship one day. Read Timothy of the Cay to find out if they will fulfill their dreams. I made a text-to-text connection with this book because I read the first book to this: The Cay. I would rate this book a five out of five stars because it had a lot of feeling to it, and it was interesting to learn about Timothy's past and Phillip's future.

I liked it. I like it because it amazing to hear about a life in the woods long ago. I love how you feel like you are sucked into the book. I read it with my family and I feel that when in the books pa tells them story's I feel actually like my family's telling me there own story's.

This book was so breathtaking! The illustrations were beautiful, and the story was well-written. I think this author really knows what he is doing; he's created THREE best-selling novels loaded with fascinating drawings and impressive stories. But THIS book is about a boy named Billy Marvel who is rescued and sent to England after a tragic shipwreck. He then discovers the Royal Theater, where he finds he truly belongs. One day, he finds a baby boy on his doorstep, and takes him in as one of his own. This boy adapts to the theater, has a son, and the story continues. The story then skips ahead to 1990. A new boy named Joseph is in search for his uncle after running away from his strict school with his friend, Blink. A mysterious friend, Frankie, helps Joseph find his uncle, but his uncle refuses to take him in. Eventually, he agrees, but not for long. Read to find out what happens next! This book is SO good, so read it!
