Kids Books - Life

This is a really good book that follows the first book well. The only thing I wish is that there would be another book in this series. This is a great book.

9 members of a family based out of Brooklyn that love everything about baseball. If you like to read a story about baseball then this book will be at your interest level. It has flashbacks that relive what early baseball was like during the Civil War. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because I like baseball and the Civil War and was a book I had a hard time putting down.

I made a connection when I signed up from when I signed up for basketball. First Ben switches from football to basketball. Next he starts to play and realizes he getting good. Last he wins a trophy and the championship. I would give this book a five star because it reminds me of a personal experience.

I really enjoyed reading this book. I loved how the mood and tone were very nice and smooth, the opposite of intense - whatever that is. Anyways, I found this book a really interesting novel to read, and can't wait to read the next one! I enjoyed all the characters and misadventures and misunderstandings. I really do recommend this book because I found it really exciting and great! I would like to thank James Ponti and everybody else who contributed to this book. My day would not have been made without it. Last but not least, I just want to say that, while I have read tons and tons of books, not many were as enjoyable and fun to read as Dead City.

This book is for lower lexiles but it sounds like a good book.Caroline Keene was a good author, I read all of the Nancy Drew and Hardy boys books

I made a connection of how Martha Boyle is twelve years old and I'm about to turn twelve. A summary of this book a stranger knocks on twelve-year-old Martha Boyle's door and hands her a piece of paper. She identifies herself as Olive Barstow's mother, then she thanks Martha and leaves. Martha is startled because Olive was a girl in her grade last year who had recently died after being hit by a car. I give this book a three star star rating because the characters are a great part of this book, but at some points it would get sad.

Ked is a boy with a progressive back issue. Ked's mom left him and his dad a couple years ago. Ked's dad gambled all of their rent money away. On top of all of this, Ked has to deal with bullies as he loses every one of his friends. Ked does EVERYTHING to keep him and his dad afloat. He earns money in every way he can. His dad keeps gambling even as a deadline is placed on the rent that hasn't been paid in a few months. I connect with this book when I see people suffering inside and out. This book was so amazing that I never wanted to put it down. I rated this book five stars because of how stunning the emotions it made you feel were.

Sink or Swim by Steve Watkins is a great book about WW ll. Colton, the main character, enrolls in the Navy in his older brother, Danny's, place. He goes through many events that no thirteen year old should ever have to go through. He meets some other guys named Straub and Woody who later all become friends. They help each other out in any time of danger. Together they had to face U-boat attacks, storms at sea, and before all that, Navy boot camp. If you are a person who is interested in war books and you like books that can have sadness, fear,anger and other mixes of emotions, then I would definitely recommend this book to you.
