Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook (Baby-sitters Club)

Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook (Baby-sitters Club)

By Ann M. Martin

In this book by Ann M. Martin, Stacey is not that interested when she find out that an old house is getting torn down. After all, in New York City, where she is from, a LOT more exciting things happen. Plus, Stacey's favorite client to sit for, Charlotte, is going to be staying with Stacey and her mom while her parents are away. Charlotte is like her sister, so Stacey is excited. But, when she and Charlotte go to see the old house, some mysterious things happen. The baby sitters club is sure that there is something fishy going on, but they don't know how to prove it. Now they must stop whatever is going on, before it takes over Stoneybrook. With chilling discoveries and heart dropping clues, this is a great mystery book to read! Overall, this book is pretty good. I would say that it is a little bit scarier than the other baby-sitters club books, so I wouldn't recommend it for younger readers. If you liked this book, you should read The Baby Sitters Club Christmas Chiller. I hop you like this book! Happy Reading!

Big Nate: In a Class by Himself

Big Nate: In a Class by Himself

By Lincoln Peirce

I really liked this book. It was awesome! ok...let's get started...So its about this boy named Nate Wright. He faces off Mrs. Godfrey, the social studies teacher, in hopes of skipping the quiz he THINKS he has. But then he learns that he DOESN'T have the quiz and ends up biffing Francis in the head when he says he actually LIKES tests. But when he gets to school, he realizes he forgot his lunch at home: "Its not here! You've gotta be KIDDING me!" I recall him saying, so Teddy shares some of his lunch, which includes a fortune cookie. Nate eats the fortune cookie during class, which causes the class pet, Gina, to call on Mrs. Godfrey who walks up to Nate's desk in order to scold him. Luckily, Nate manages to swallow it before she peeks into his mouth. And guess what fortune he gets out of the cookie? 'YOU WILL SURPASS ALL OTHERS' Says the little slip of paper. Nate was delighted! So he keeps trying in vain to make it happen. You will have to read it yourself to find out if it will or not. I recommend this book for people who enjoy comics.

Granted

Granted

By John Anderson

Do you believe in wishing? If not, you will now. Ophelia Delphinium Fidgets is a Granter, a fairy that grants wishes except...she hasn't granted any wishes yet. But the rate of fairy dust has been going down lately, and they won't be able to grant a lot of wishes. So 12 are chosen, by the Great Tree itself. And Ophelia is one of the 12 that will grant one of the wishes. She goes on a long and desperate journey, finding that the outside world is much more dangerous than meets the eye. From befriending a stray dog, to almost getting killed by a plane, Ophelia survives all her difficulties but she must make a choice. A choice that might kill the Great Tree and change the fate of the Granters. I would recommend this for ages 10+ This was so cute and the pace was perfect! The characters were so unique and fun. I loved how the author explained things it made everything very interesting. This could still use some improvement but still such a lovely book. Granted reminded me so much of the book Disenchanted and Ms. Hickory! Would definitely recommend this.
