The Magic Tree House series is an awesome series. My mother was even interested in this book. This story is about 2 siblings, Annie and Jack. They have a magic tree house. The reason why it's magic is because when you open a book in the tree house and think about the place in the book you want to go, you go there. This time, they went to the time Leonardo de Vinchi was alive and making artwork. Read to find out what happens in this book.

soo good. romantic fluff. a spin on the aladdin story.

Today I am going to review the book, Who was Milton Hershey? by James Buckley, Jr. This book was published in 2013. This book tells the life story of Milton Hershey from his times on the farm to his creation of Hershey, Pennsylvania. You will learn all about this chocolate king. I enjoyed reading this book because of how much I learned that I never knew before. Also, it was about chocolate! The reading level of this book is about 3rd-5th grade. I would recommend this book for chocolate lovers and people who enjoy learning history.

I love this book! It is about a boy who lives in pearl harbor and his experience of the bomb hitting Pearl Harbor. This book is a page-turner! I certainly recommend it!

Nice book i read about a boy who faces a life long impact challenge of getting his leg bitten off, by the great white shark!

The main character of this book is Alex. He has a life-threatening medical condition, and so every day the middle-school-er goes to work with his mom at the museum. One day he comes very close to dying, until his mom saves him with a magic book, one of the artifacts. But then evil spirits are released and disaster occurs. To top it off his mom disappears. Will he and his best friend Ren be able to find her and reset the evil doings. I only recommend this book for older kids as it has much violence, and horror involved.
