Robert Louis Stevenson's most famous story of Treasure Island. It's about one boy, Jim Hawkins who aspires adventures. When he set out for an adventure, he had met so many characters like Captain Smollett, Dr. Livesey, Israel Hands, etc. Meanwhile during on his seafaring adventures, he had encountered so many obstacles and made few major decisions, some of them might cost him a life, experienced a battle on the ship and on the island. He also experienced violence and near-death, too. This book is a classic and I would recommend this book for everyone who likes suspenseful, adventures, and about pirates. - Happy Reading!

In this book, George goes on an exciting field trip. I like that the story has a surprising thing that happened. Read more to find out.

Matilda is about a little, intelligent girl who loves to read. She goes to a school with a lovely, kind teacher called Miss Honey however her head teacher, Miss Trunchbull, is wicked, villainous and locks the children in the dreaded 'chokey'! She spends most of the day alone while her mother, father and brother are out. Her parents are horrible and they act like they don't love her. This leads to Matilda discovering that she has magical powers! The characters in the story are good because they all have different personalities. Lavender is Matilda's friend who places a newt in Miss Trunchbull's jug of water. One day, the children have to go to a very important assembly where Bruce Bogtrotter is made to eat a whole chocolate cake. This part of the story was hilarious. The only negative about this book is that it is not long enough! We would recommend this story to children above 6 years old (junior school age) because some of the language is quite difficult to read and some words are a bit offensive. It would also be appropriate for adults. Read the book to find out whether the children get their own back on Miss Trunchbull!

i like this book because they gave john a lesson; always listen to your parents. my favorite part was when john turn her mother into a big chocolate and then went with the store keeper that was my favorite part. I remember because I finish reading it just today a will recommend you to read it once you read a chapter you want to keep going! I read 3 chapters ahead in my school it was so interesting actually it was long because it had 12 chapters put in the end a was like what because i think there's a 2 book because at the end it only said "sold," that's what I think.

Jamie Grimm is a middle school student in a wheelchair who lives with the Smileys (his nickname for them since they don’t laugh or smile); his aunt, uncle and their three children who don’t have any sense of humor, and gets bullied by their older son. Jamie is on a mission; to be the greatest standup sitdown comedian in the world. He is a natural at joking; his brain is wired for it. After school and on the weekends, he goes to his Uncle Frankie’s Diner and practices his jokes on customers with a result of endless laughing. Then, his Uncle tells him about The Planet’s Funniest Kid Comic Contest. Without telling anyone, Jamie starts practicing jokes everywhere he can; with his friends Pierce: who has a vast knowledge, Gaynor: who has tattoos and a nose-piercing, Cool Girl: who thinks Jamie is a book-carrier, and are very close friends, and Gilda: the girl with the frizzy hair. He also practices with the Smileys and tries to make the un-laughable laugh. He wins first place for the city competition-but will he win the state? What I thought about the book: I Funny is very funny. Extremely funny. I laughed endlessly. James Patterson is a wonderful author. After I read his other middle school books, Middle School: The Worst Years Of My Life and Middle School: Get Me Out Of Here!; I raced to get this from the library. His books are almost like middle school diaries. It’s almost like he was writing his experiences from middle school. He writes so well. The pictures (by the awesome Laura Park) are a great addition to the book. Beautifully inked, they help you understand the story way better. S if you want some great jokes, for example (I almost busted a gut with this one) : “Hey, have you heard about the kidnapping?” ”No.” ”Don’t worry, he’s still sleeping.”; read I Funny. And if that doesn’t make you read it, then I don’t know what will. Xander

I love this book! It is by Dance Moms star McKenzie Ziegler, and it is basically a book where she shares advice. There is quizzes and even an Ask Kenzie column! This book is filled with advice an encouragement on how to be yourself! I would recommend reading this book if you are having a bad day. I highly recommend it!

The characters in this 18th-century novel, essentially social commentary about the preoccupation with marriage during the time of the book's publication, seemed astonishingly fresh and real. This is due to the intricacies of their character traits and emotions—a testament to Austen's skill as a novelist. The overarching idea of the novel, though, is simple enough: marriage. Since the whole of the Bennet children are at marrying age and female, which, at the time, meant that their financial security depended on marrying well, and also because their father's estate will be passed down to their cousin, much of the novel details interactions between them and potential suitors, focusing on playful Lydia, attractive Jane, and contemplative Elizabeth, the protagonist of this novel. The story opens with the arrival of one such young man: Mr. Bingley, a rich person who has just rented the estate down the street. His friend, Mr. Darcy, however, is rejected as a rude, stuck-up man; but on the other hand, Mrs. Bennet is overcome with the wish, however unlikely it may seem, of Mr. Bingley marrying Jane. Indeed, she might have succeeded, had Bingley's two sisters, Miss Bingley and Mrs. Hurst, not intervened. Meanwhile, Mr. Darcy's affection for Elizabeth grows, but she remains oblivious. One day, Bingley decides to go to London; this news is tragic to not only Mrs. Bingley but also Jane, who'd begun to develop feelings for him. Much more happens, but in the end, at least some of the characters do end up married, and they experience a shocking scandal. This book, what with its length and lengthy descriptions and formal sentence structure, will appeal to those who like detail sprinkled in their books. Moreover, these sentences are playful and ironic, particularly portrayals of Mrs. Bennet and the Bingley sisters, one of whom has a crush on Mr. Darcy. It's also perfect for those who want to take a look into the lives of women in the gentry class of Regency England, when people rode horse-drawn carriages and society imposed strict rules regarding women's behavior. In contrast, those who do not like this book will probably attribute this dislike to a simple thing: there is not enough action in the book— several parts are devoid really of anything like that at all. Also, you may not like this book if you prefer clear, concise plots (at times the main character, Elizabeth, seems to be hopping around from place to place). There is also use of heavy passages of dialogue to show the characters' thoughts, traits, and emotions. So, if you are not a fan of those things, go read something else. But if you enjoy reading about character interactions and humorous, complex, characters, go ahead and pick up this classic book, considered a monumental work of British literature.

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.
