Kids Books - School

This book was amazing and the most inspiring part is when Anna spots some abuse with a child, and then later gets to meet that child for what she had done to save the girl. Joan Bauer used her writing skills, in to Tell Me.

I love this book soo much, it's very good, and in a lot of ways I'm like Emma-Rose (And just because my pic has pink and stuff, don't let that fool you. I'm just trying to look like my fave singer)

When there's a trend, don't count Babymouse out! When texting and surfing the Internet becomes all the rage, Babymouse will do everything in her power to obtain a cell phone of her very own. But when the obsession over funny animal videos, texting slang, and building up an empire of social media followers push her over the edge, can Babymouse really stick with the trends?

Emmy figures out that inside the potato things the nanny is putting something. That is part of the tale of Emmy and the incredible shrinking rat. If you want to know more than I think you should read this book! If you like mysteries this is the book for you. Also if you like funny books this will also be a good fit. I appreciate this book because it is very mysterious and still has some humor in it. That is why you should read this book.

I thought this was a decent book, but the first book: "Because of Mr. Terupt" is much better. So Peter, Lexie, Danielle, Jeffrey, Jessica, Anna, and Luke are back with Mr. Terupt for 6th grade. Peter: His mom and dad are "forcing" him to go "Riverway" a private school where his dad, grandpa, and brother went to, but Peter doesn't want go go. Lexie: Starts hanging out with some bad high schoolers who make her do some wrong choices. She also wants to be older and impress boys. Danielle: Knows her family is not telling her something important that is worrying them. Jeffrey: Finds a baby when walking to school one day. Jessica: finds important information about Mr. Terupt's past. Anna: Learns about her dad she never knew. Luke: becomes a "detective"...makes a lot of observations and asks a lot of questions.

The gang is back! Lexie and Peter are back to their on and off relationship, and when Lexie sees an ad on tv for a test that she can take to find out if she has the same cancer gene as her mom, she gets it. The thing is, Lexie's too worried to see the results. Peter is still the comedy king, but when the gang learns some shocking information, he's giving someone the silent treatment. Jeffery really wants to make the varsity wrestling team, but when he needs to do something to get onto the team and because of it, breaks up with Anna- is it worth it? Anna isn't doing so well, now that her mom and Charlie are getting married and she gets neglected by her mom as well as Jeffery's treating her bad. Danielle is switching to an insulin pump for her diabetes, and it's getting kind of hard for her. As well, maybe she and another boy are closer than they think... Luke is doing a science project, but he's also learning that he seems to like someone. Jessica is into poetry, but when her dad comes back- does that mean her mom and him will get back together? In the conclusion to the series, the gang makes you laugh, cry, and realize what friendship really means. Happy reading!

Looking for a good book to read? Well Saving Mr. Terupt by Rob Buyea is an amazing book to read. I give it 5 out of 5 stars. Saving Mr. Terupt is a realistic fiction book that is set in the students current middle school that they are attending and Snow Hill School in Mr. Terupt's classroom. This book is told from 7 different characters points of view. Saving Mr. Terupt is the 3rd book in the series. In comparison to Mr. Terupt Falls Again, the 2nd book in the series, the stories involve the same characters, Jeffery, Anna, Alexia, Peter, Luke, Jessica, and Danielle. Also, the 2 book's setting and story are different. This book shows an amazing relationship that students can have with a teacher that means a lot to them. For example in the text it says, " It was time for more drastic measures. There was no way I was allowing this to happen. These people had made a mistake." This shows that they have a strong relationship because it shows that when the results came in and Mr. Terupt was going to loose his job they were prepared to do anything it takes to get it back. This book is about a group of friends that suffer through multiple challenges along the book. For example, a big fight they had with each other, trying to save their favorite teacher and much more. Although, they might suffer through a lot of challenges, they also have a lot of fun moments too. Like, the "Everything Fair", planing their campaigns in Mr. Terupt's classroom and much more. If you liked Because of Mr. Terupt or Mr. Terupt Falls Again, then you would like this one too. I would recommend reading the books in order so, you would have a better understanding of the plots and relationships between the characters. Someone that would like this book are mostly students and kids ages between 10-14 years old because I think that they would relate more.

I rate this book as fair since even though the protagonist, Evan Treski, is given his stolen $208 back, the mystery is too easy for me to have to think deeply for. The author made the criminal too blatant and nobody else can be blamed. Jacqueline Davies made the criminal, Scott Spencer, take too long to be found guilty of stealing Evan’s money since everybody knows Scott stole it, but nobody has proof that will convince the judge of Evan’s class’s court system. I appreciate that the author made one of Evan’s trusted classmates, Megan Moriarty, betray him. Megan reveals how Scott should be innocent, which surprises Evan and his younger sister, Jessie, since Megan is Jessie’s best friend. Also, Jessie and Evan are in the same class, so they don’t fight with Megan. It surprised me that Megan helps Scott instead of Evan, only since Scott lets Megan try his new Xbox 20/20, which Evan and Jessie think Scott spends the stolen $208 on. Scott let everybody in the class try it, which could have made everybody want to defend Scott, otherwise, they will not be able to play with it anymore. I also appreciate that the author made a jury of Evan’s class and keep it a secret. I think this is a childish way to end the book since Evan and Scott act as friends again when Evan blames himself and Scott on breaking Scott’s dad’s TV, when only Scott broke it. To repay him, Scott gives Evan the stolen $208 back, and Evan, Jessie, and Scott signed a pact, which has them swear that they will never tell any adult about what actually happened to Evan’s money. I don’t appreciate that in the resolution, everything is solved then since it isn’t interesting. The author has Evan defend Scott, and Scott apologizes for stealing Evan’s money by returning it. When Evan asks Scott why he stole it in the first place, Scott doesn't have an answer and he doesn't even use it. Scott doesn't buy the Xbox 20/20 with the stolen money, but his parents did.

this book is so cute i love this series,].
