Geronimo Stilton Special Edition: The Journey Through Time
By Geronimo Stilton
It is a very interesting story and I think other people must read it. Because it’s about time, travel fast through history. My favourite part was Geronimo was saving a maiden from the black castle where she was locked up in a room. I would read this book again as it’s very interesting.

Pollyanna (Oxford Children's Classics)
By Eleanor Porter
The main lesson in this story is to try to be glad when your sad. First, when the Glad Game was harder for Pollyanna it would be more fun! Pollyanna would always play the Glad Game when she was sad. Pollyanna even helped other people who are not happy or are disappointed to play the Glad Game. Second, she even taught Nancy ( a maid ) how to play the Glad Game! When Pollyanna wanted a toy doll in a care package from the ladies aid, but instead got crutches, she was blue. So her dad taught her how to play the Glad Game! At first, Pollyanna thought,¨ How could a silly game help me find a way to be happy about these crutches?¨, look at her now, she´s spreading the game everywhere! Third, she finally figured out how to be glad about the crutches! ( The book never said how? ) Finally, I would recommend this book for 5th grade girls because the book taught me to try to be glad when I´m sad, and if you read the book, I hope you will try to! Pollyanna is a tremendous book! I would read Pollyanna again!!!

By Esther Forbes
I had to read this book for school, and thought I wouldn't like it because I usually don't like newbery honer books. To my surprise this is actually a pretty good book. If you like the revolutionary war or historical fiction I recommend this book.

This book is about a girl named Molly Moon who goes back in time to find her twin brother who is missing. The problem is a princess from that time catches Molly and drains all her memories and keeps her in the palace to wait a few years so technology can upgrade and could harvest talent. I liked this book because it shows what it can be like in the future.
Al Capone Does My Shirts (Tales from Alcatraz)

This was a decent book. I was reading it with my reading class, lol. So Moose is forced to move to Alcatraz Island for his dad's job: which is a guard for the jail. Moose's sister: Natalie has autism and is hopefully attending the Esther P. Marinoff school soon. Moose also meets Piper; the Warden's daughter who is bossy and comes up with risky plans. The criminals on Alcatraz are also required to make dinner and do the laundry and Piper comes up with a plan: a laundry business at Moose's and her school. Moose also meets Theresa who is a sassy yet cute girl who always follows Moose and Natalie around. So Moose tries to stay out of trouble on the Island, but that's pretty much impossible with Piper and her plans and his sister Natalie who he always has to keep his eye on.
