Mysteries in Our National Parks: Wolf Stalker: A Mystery in Yellowstone National Park
By Gloria Skurzynski, Alane Ferguson
Wolf Stalker is one of those books that you can't find anything bad to say about, but it's not Newbery award material. It has some charm to it, with somewhat interesting characters with whom you can relate to, accompanied by a nice, stable plot, but it doesn't stand out from the hundreds of thousands of books out there, and it'll probably never think about it now that it's done and read. You're being too harsh, you say, what with the plot being about saving a supposedly-bloodthirsty wolf, uncovering secrets, a grumpy foster kid, and an evil dude, but even with all those features, Wolf Stalker just isn't phenomenal or mind-blowing, although it does have a good message about preserving the world we live in and the animals that live in it with us. I liked it, and I'd say ages elementary through middle school will enjoy it.
Hoot
By Carl Hiaasen
Hoot Is a great book with lots of adventure. I'd have to admit is is a little hard to follow because it is two stories in one book. This book makes you laugh, get mad, and just be scared for the characters. Hoot is a story that will make your day. The chapters are quite long so this is not a book for beginner readers. One of the stories is about two nemisises, Roy and Dana. Roy get Dana arrested. Mullet fingers is Roy's other friend who turns out to be Roys worst enemies step brother. ( Worst enemy = Beatrice). This is an amazing book and I recommend it to all readers who like a mystery with some rebellion mixed in.
Ninth Ward
By Jewell Parker Rhodes
Ninth Ward is a really interesting book about a girl ( Lanesha ) and her foster mother ( Mama Ya-Ya ). Lanesha was orphaned at birth and was fostered because her rich Uptown family is scared of her. Around the middle of the book hurricane Katrina strikes, but Mama Ya-Ya and Lanesha are stuck, unable to get out of New Orleans. I would definitely recommend this book for ages 9-12. Overall a really good book for people who like cliffhangers.
The Wild Ones
By C. Alexander London
"I promise, heart to snap." Can you imagine a world where animals roamed without fear, but they were divided among two sides? On one side are the Wild Ones, consisting of rats, weasels, raccoons and pretty much everything in between - but on the other side are the bloodthirsty Flealess, People's pets who aren't as cuddly and soft as you imagined. Both sides are about to get in a bitter war about possession over Ankle Snap Alley, the most rundown, Slivered Sky-reminiscent place you could imagine - but still, a home for the Wild Ones. Meanwhile, a young, carefree raccoon named Kit thinks he's the farthest away as possible from Slivered Sky life. His parents are historians, travelling all over the world to find artifacts related to Azban, the first Raccoon. But when his parents die at the hands of bloodhounds, Kit must follow his mother's last words - he must protect the Footprint of Azban at all costs and find his uncle Rik. Kit doesn't know why his parents had to die protecting the Footprint of Azban - for all he knows, it's just an artifact, nothing important! But suddenly Kit finds out a shocking secret about his parents and the Footprint of Azban.. and suddenly, Kit finds out that he's the only one who can uncover the secret that gives Ankle Snap Alley to the Wild Ones.. but will he die at the hands of the Flealess trying to uncover it? An almost worthy successor to the great adventure novels that were Redwall, this novel has a big heart and a great bit of adventure. In one word, I think this book is refreshing. A fresh breath of spring air in an alley, you could say. I love how this book takes the "animal" genre towards a new direction, focusing not on dogs, cats, and the like, but on other animals that deserve the spotlight for a change! That being said, I love how this book has such a diverse cast of animals! Another thing I love about this book is the unlikely (at the beginning) friendship of Kit and Eeni. I'm also relieved there isn't a romantic relationship between any of the characters (except Kit's parents, of course), because it's honestly becoming cliche. I loved how their friendship was genuine, not some plot twist where one betrays the other, because honestly I've read too many of those books lately.. The character development and details really pulled me into this world of ragtag animals.. I think that the only thing that negatively surprised me was the surprising amount of violence (don't be turned away from this book because of that, there's only a little), I think I was expecting a feel-good, family book but there was actual hunting/war/violence and even a death at the beginning (not too many details) But what can you say - this book really tugged at my heart with its adventurous spirit. This book delved into a cutting-edge storyline.. but it also explored the true feelings of its characters, and that might be why I loved this book.
The Last Hope (Warriors: Omen of the Stars No. 6)
By Erin Hunter
The last book of the final series of Warrior Cats. This book is full of adventures and danger, with sadness and despair. With all of the four clans uniting to battle with the dark forest, under Firestar's lead, the four clans unite as one and defeated the dark forest's evil cats. I really admire Firestar because usually a kitty pet is not respected and treated really mean, however Firestar was treated well and other cats respect him as a true clan born, and other cats would want to follow him even the other clan leaders. I really liked this series from the starting to the end, even though it wasn't considered a happy ending. Firestar's character shows the life of some people work hard to earn their spot in society and get respected, when they started with nothing., however if you are willing to try you may succeed.
Dolphin Adventure: A True Story
By Wayne Grover
Title: Dolphin Adventure Author: Wayne Grover Genre Autobiography I would rate this book a â…– because it has so much more to offer i feel as though this experience could be more exciting instead of saving a dolphin imagine saving a shark. Some parts of this book are interesting, for example when the father dolphin bolts into the shark to save the baby. I recommend this book to 2nd to 5th because it could be a good challenge for 2nd grade but something easier for a 5 grader.
Weird But True Human Body: 300 Outrageous Facts about Your Awesome Anatomy
By National Geographic Kids
I really enjoyed this book, It makes what would usually be boring stuff, very fun! There are tons and tons of weird and unusual facts about your body, you probably never even knew! This is a good book to read if you like weird, silly, and VERY unusual things! Or.. if you just enjoy learning about the human body or just learning facts.
