Kids Books - Literature

This book has some funny stories for every occasion. Unlike the revised Mini Mysteries book, there were brand-new stories instead of repeated ones with different illustrations. There is a set of stories for each season of the year: fall, winter, spring, and summer. Hope you enjoy it!

I found Adrift after a desperate search of my library for a book that might heal a bit of the heartbreak from the ending of the Throne of Glass series., and since it was short and had a decent-looking storyline, I grabbed it and started reading. You can't go wrong with a book about five teens stranded at sea with no hope of survival, right? WRONG. Don't get me wrong, I like a fast-paced book, but Adrift was had a blink-and-you'll-miss-it plot. It felt like the author just tossed the story upon you without a second thought for character development. It definitely would have done better as a longer novel. But I have to give Mr. Griffin credit; the story is what it claims to be and nothing less. It was realistic in gristly details and had an ending that just sums up how life goes: The main characters don't always get the girl, not everyone lives, and it's not always just forgive-and-forget. I found Adrift in the teen section, but anyone could read it. It's only 228 pages, so I didn't lose much, but this book didn't leave me feeling like I'd gained anything, either.

When Hank's sister, Emily finds out she cannot have her dream birthday party, Hank is determined to make it happen. With the help of his friends, a really clever costume, and a rubber snake, Hank puts on the magic show of a lifetime. This book was also voted a favorite.

This book is the kind that is hard to put down, the one that makes you just absolutely HAVE to know what happens. It grasps you and holds tight and when your done it still holds on to you as you still think about it and how everything slowly pieced together. It's a mind twisting mysterey about a boy named Fin, and a girl named Roza. It all begins when a mysterious and beautiful polish girl covered in cuts and bruises named Roza appears in the small midwestern town of bonegap. When she is kidnapped her only eye witness is Finn. Who , for the life of him, can identify the kidnapper. We learn of Fin, Roza, and find older brothers unfortunate past. And weave through the love, the heartbreak, the mystery, and the happiness.

I read this book at a very young age, but it is still one of my favorites. In this misadventure, Katie's favorite author is coming to school. But when Katie forgets to read her newest book, she is forced to experience being the author. Very inspirational for kid writers!

Sophie Simon is a curious genius. However, her parents would rather see her make friends than operate on earth worms. Meanwhile, three other kids have their own problems: a girl in a nasty ballet class, a struggling journalist, and a shy boy. Lisa Graff presents a unique outlook on childhood.
