The book The Secret Garden was written by Frances Hodgson Burnett in 1911. It is about a rude and spoiled little girl named Mary. She came from India but isn’t Indian. When she was born she wasn't wanted By her father or mother, so they gave her to a lady to watch over her. Mostly, servants took care of Mary and had to do whatever she asked of them or demanded because people didn't want her to throw a fit or cry. This made her grow up, having everything her way and done for her. One day, a great number of people in the household had died from sickness or had fled away in terror and most everyone had seen to disappear. People later found Mary in her nursery and came to take her to live with her Uncle, who is depressed and ends up having no time to pay attention to or love her. Over time she slowly learns to do things on her own and not to rely on everybody else to do things for her. She finds out that there is a secret garden that her uncle’s wife used to love, but she passed away, Which devastated him. So, he shut away the garden and never wanted to see it again. He buried the key to the garden, and no one has seen it for 10 years. Mary later learns to like people other than herself and to enjoy nature and what it has to offer. She meets a kind boy named Dickon, who teaches her a lot about gardens and helps her learn about them. She starts to enjoy plants and animals and has the desire to learn more about them. She starts to spend more time playing outside and sees the beauty of nature. I truly enjoyed this book and rate it a five out of five. I would recommend it to anyone passionate about gardens/plants and classics. Thanks!

I am not the biggest fan of unicorns (no offense to unicorn lovers.) But when I get bored I like to read random books and this book it wasn't like most where they get along and everyone is surprised there is fantasy creature around but both of the main characters make fun of each other in a good way. Sometimes I will actually laugh. There's also the "Shield Of Boringness" and that's why not many people are surprised. I absolutely recommend this for younger age groups or just anyone who likes fantasy and unicorns. I also finished it just today and wrote a review on it almost right away. If you have an Amazon kids tablet you can download and read it)) Read on my friends!!!!

The Tale Of Despereaux is a very heart warming story of a mouse who is not liked by others and is different from a mouse in many ways. When Despereaux continues to not help his brothers and sisters find food and does not do what is is supposed to do, the mouse community decides to put him into the dungeon. When he is put into the dungeon, Despereaux does everything to get out of it. This is also the story of a Princess. I love this book!

I just read this book and it is totally awesome. Mafatu was afraid of the sea, unlike the people in his village. Starting when he was 3, he saw his mother die because of a storm, and that started his fear. All his life until he was 15, he was teased and bullied all because of his fear of the sea. Mafatu couldn't stand it, so he started out onto a journey to prove his courage. As he was starting his journey, he was caught in a storm and landed in a desert island with his dog, Uri, as his only companion. In the island, Mafatu learns how to face his fears, learning to hunt and love the sea, just like everyone in the village. Finally, Mafatu realizes he has to go back to his island, where he is greeted as a hero to everyone in his home village. This book teaches people what courage is like and how to face your fears, one step at a time. I recommend this book to people between ages 9-15, and people who love adventures that tell them what they truly mean to people like them.

I absolutely love this book. J.M. Barrie is a masterfully clever writer. I read this book years ago, and re-read it every year. It is a beautiful tale, beautifully told.

This book is about a half-mer, she knows she shouldn't have worn the ring she found on her bed because she is now under a curse. She finally finds the perfect match for the two rings. Her Parents! I would recommend this book to anyone who like emotional and adventure. People who like mystery will love it to!

Artemis the Brave, who thinks she's not that brave at all. Her friends, Athena the Brain, Aprodiothe the Beauty, and Pepsephone the Phony often said that their friend, Artemis is really brave, like way more braver than they are. And the lesson that Artemis had really learned is that bravery doesn't mean fighting without fear, fear gives you a bravery itself. Artemis had met one mortal, Orion Starr who was an actor back on the Earth who Artemis used to like him so much but learned that Orion isn't of what she think about him at all. - Happy Reading!

This book was from the ocean's point of view. I liked it. The pictures were really pretty. I love Moana, both the movie and the books.

As the goddess girl of rumor and gossip, Pheme prides herself on being “in the know” and having the most up-to-date info on anyone and everyone at Mount Olympus Academy. To make sure that people really get her VIP messages, her words tend to linger in cloud letters above her head—just in case people don’t catch what she says! But not everyone is thrilled with Pheme’s insider knowledge on everything MOA—including the Goddess Girls. Can Pheme ever be trusted? Or will this “gossip girl” find herself on the other end of the rumors?

Rainwings have the most powerful weapons on the whole Pyrrhia, however, they don’t like to use it on other dragons, instead, they enjoy sleeping. Therefore, everyone thought Rainwings are weak and lazy. Few days ago, Mom finally bought me the whole set of Wings of Fire, I immediately rip open and start reading. In this book, the five dragonets of prophecy decided to travel to Glory’s home, the Rainwing Kingdom. They found out all Rainwings have a secret weapon, that is to be able to spit out the poison venom. As the story developed more, evil came to the Rainwings. They need to fight against the hungry Nightwings to survive. Rainwings don’t like to fight, so they didn’t train for it, however, under Glory’s lead, they slowly figure out how to use their secret weapon. This is probably one of my favorite book, because it shows how brave Glory is, and the five dragonets never give up on saving the world, ending the war.
