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 read this book for school, amd, for being written along time ago, was very good. I love Nathaniel Hawthorne as a writer, he is so funny! Here is the reveiw: Hepzibah has recently opened a cent shop in her house because she does not have the money to care for herself. Pheobe Pyncheon comes to visit and helps her cousin Hepzibah run the shop. Hepzibah, Pheobe and others go on wild adventures, with themes such as love, sacrifice, and mystery. Overall, I would defiantly recommend this to both teachers and students. I think it was high school reading level, but for sure worth the struggle to read. (I love little Med Higgins btw)

Another adventure begins this time with the Vasquez sisters; Mia and Gabby. But the trouble uprises as Gabby became stuck at Never-Land due to the hole being closed. Mia, who had brought the flower-talent fairy, Rosetta with Mia to the mainland and Gabby with light-talent fairy, Iridessa. Will Gabby find her way back to the mainland, her home and Rosetta find her way back home? - Happy Reading!

Come and have fun on the adventure with Kate McCrady! Kate, who loves the excitement more than her friends. This adventure was crazy and I will tell you about it. Kate had spotted a mist horse of what she named Cloud. The water-talent fairy Silvermist became anxious after studying the old legends of the mist horses in the Never-Land. Will Kate be still safe or not? Read on and find out! - Happy Reading!

Another adventure awaits for you this time with Lainey Winters. Lainey dreams of having an ability to communicate with animals, and the fairy, Fawn was helping her. She worries that if she arrived back in the mainland, her animal skills would instantly disappear but realized that she'll not lose her skills with the animals communication. - Happy Reading!

Kate McCrady, Lainey Winters, Mia Vasquez with Mia's younger sister, Gabby. All 3 older girls never really believed in stuff like fairies or even the Never-Land itself until one day Gabby did something that they all ended up in the Never-Land which felt never so real to them. The fairy, Prilla who accidently brought all four girls, and the situations while they were there got messed up and they tried to fix their problems at their own. They also met few more fairies like Tinker Bell, Queen Clarion, Vidia, etc. I would recommend this book series for anyone who loves the fantasy as much as I do. - Happy Reading!

What Melinda won't say about the party is what's killing her inside. She feels depressed and doesn't want to go on... with anything.

Melinda could of given up any time but still, she continued with life and fought through the pain. She is a brave, inspiring person that almost anyone can look up to! This is a must read and you should read it as soon as you can, you won't regret it!!

Grenade tells the story of the invasion of Okinawa by the Americans towards the end of World War Two. The book is mainly about Hideki, a native of Okinawa, burdened by the knowledge of his ancestor, who chose to surrender rather than fight against the Japanese invaders. As a member of the Blood and Iron Student Corps, he is given only two grenades and is expected to kill as many Americans as possible, then blow himself up. But the students' attempt at attacking the Americans does not go well, and Hideki is forced to flee. Then there's Ray, a fresh recruit just out of high school, who has landed in Okinawa. As he clears out Japanese encampments with his platoon, he is faced with the harsh realities of war. Chapters switch between Ray and Hideki: first with Hideki running through Okinawa, trying to find his sister, last seen at a field hospital on the other side of the island; then Ray, who is growing accustomed to army life. I loved the thought-provoking ness, especially how it brought in traditional Okinawan beliefs. Additionally, it lacked a boring moment and kept me hooked till the end. I admired how it depicted the war correctly, with cruelty on both the Japanese and American sides. One of the best books I've read, I would recommend it for people who like fast-paced books about war

It is a must-read for people who want to be a tidy person. It took me one year to fully change into the life I wanted to live!🤣😜

Personally I don't enjoy this book very much but I do think other people might enjoy this book and if you like adventure boo ks I definitely read this book!
