I love this book!!!It reminds me of one of my favorite movies!

Every time Prince Horace(a.k.a Prince Brat) ties the noble's wigs to their chair, or makes the knights fall off their horses, or puts frogs into the moat, whipping boy Jemmy needs to endure lashes of a whip.Because of all this, Jemmy hates Prince Brat. When Prince Brat makes Jemmy run away with him, he accepts. Soon after, they are caught together by Hold-Your-Nose-Billy and his accomplice Cutwater. Jemmy and Prince Brat will need to trust and help each other if they want to stay alive. This was a great book because it was funny.

I am adopted so this book is close to home. It is great for anyone loving a good mystery. Claudia is going through some old photo albums. She sees hundreds of pictures of her older sister, Janine, but hardly any of her. But when she tries to find her birth announcement in the local paper, she can't find it! Was she adopted? And who are her real parents?

Alpaca my Bags is a story about a girl who doesn't exactly fit in with her family. When Amelia goes to public school for the first time in her home schooled life, things aren't easy. But when she gets a job at the alpaca ranch, Amelia sees hope! Unfortunately, one day, when a classmate's cruel action puts the alpacas in mortal peril, Amelia has to muster all the courage she has!

In this book by Ann M. Martin, Stacey is not that interested when she find out that an old house is getting torn down. After all, in New York City, where she is from, a LOT more exciting things happen. Plus, Stacey's favorite client to sit for, Charlotte, is going to be staying with Stacey and her mom while her parents are away. Charlotte is like her sister, so Stacey is excited. But, when she and Charlotte go to see the old house, some mysterious things happen. The baby sitters club is sure that there is something fishy going on, but they don't know how to prove it. Now they must stop whatever is going on, before it takes over Stoneybrook. With chilling discoveries and heart dropping clues, this is a great mystery book to read! Overall, this book is pretty good. I would say that it is a little bit scarier than the other baby-sitters club books, so I wouldn't recommend it for younger readers. If you liked this book, you should read The Baby Sitters Club Christmas Chiller. I hop you like this book! Happy Reading!

Great book but it is very short.

Eleven-year-old Thyme (Time with an "hy") and her family has moved from their home in San Diego, California to the big city. New York City. They had to move so Thyme's little brother, Val, who has nerve cancer, can get into a clinical trial to see if doctors can save his life. Thyme is not happy about this. All she can think about is moving back to the only home she's ever known so she can be back at her old school, old friends, and old home. Thyme comes up with a plan to get back to California. Whenever she uses her free-time to do a chore or a task, she gets a time slip. That time slip is a certain amount of time that Thyme gets to cash out to spend time with her mother, or to hog the iPad all to herself. As the story moves along, as Thyme make more and more friendships, the jar she keep the time slips in gets more and more full, her family situation gets more and more tense, and Val's condition gets more and more worse. Thyme has to make a choice. She can either leave her new friends, parents, and sick little brother to go back to a place that truly has nothing to offer her, or she can stay, and realize that all the home she needs is right in New York City. I give this book 5 stars because it is absolutely excellent. Happy reading!

I really liked this book. It was awesome! ok...let's get started...So its about this boy named Nate Wright. He faces off Mrs. Godfrey, the social studies teacher, in hopes of skipping the quiz he THINKS he has. But then he learns that he DOESN'T have the quiz and ends up biffing Francis in the head when he says he actually LIKES tests. But when he gets to school, he realizes he forgot his lunch at home: "Its not here! You've gotta be KIDDING me!" I recall him saying, so Teddy shares some of his lunch, which includes a fortune cookie. Nate eats the fortune cookie during class, which causes the class pet, Gina, to call on Mrs. Godfrey who walks up to Nate's desk in order to scold him. Luckily, Nate manages to swallow it before she peeks into his mouth. And guess what fortune he gets out of the cookie? 'YOU WILL SURPASS ALL OTHERS' Says the little slip of paper. Nate was delighted! So he keeps trying in vain to make it happen. You will have to read it yourself to find out if it will or not. I recommend this book for people who enjoy comics.

This book is so perfect for African-American girls or people who are Black. It is such an inspiring read and so very important for Black girls like me to know that there are inspirational women who did great things and also looked like them. Really, Everyone should read this book! Your Friendly Reviewer, Lotte Parker
