I have read this book and it's one book you should not judge by its cover. Read after the chapter 'Shadow' and it will all make sense. It's all written in poem but don't let that put you off. I think it is amazing. The age I recommend it for is 11+ because younger people may not understand. Even they could read it. It's not disturbing, it's just it will be easier to understand if you are 11+.

My favorite book is by Mary Casanova. She is awesome!

This book is a great book. It is about tornados. It tells you that they are very dangerous. Also it tells you that you should stay on low ground if you see a tornado. I think that this book helps me learn a lot about this dangerous thing. Even though they are dangerous they are very fun to look at. That is a little bit about this book.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Black Star is a sled dog. Bright Dawn is his owner. Follow them through the Iditarod Trail, braving an ice flow, and moose. Meet Oteg, a man racing in the Iditarod, a man that gives 18 year old Bright Dawn advice on how to race the Iditarod. This book is one of the top 50 books that I've read, and that's saying a lot, because I've read a lot of books. It has a scary beginning, but then there are twists in the story. Read this book to find out what they are...

I read this book for school. It was a little strange and is basically a long fable. The main character is a boy named Santiago, who is a shepherd in Andalusia, Spain. He goes on this journey to the pyramids of Egypt and that is all I can say without spoiling the book.

In Vonallburg’s book two bad ant’s two greedy ant’s stay with the crystal’s my opinion is is a good awesome book they go through a series of frightening adventure’s a cave, a river ,and many other thrilling adventure,s! This all happened because they were greedy! Also selfish. Remember it is a awesome Book!

I am so glad books like this exist. Without Ishi, I would not have known what life was really like for the Yahi when the Saldu (white man) showed up. I love the details of Ishi's life in Northern California, and I also feel terribly depressed when I read about the demise of his tribe. A very important book for young readers studying California Indian history.

“A Girl Named Disaster,” by Nancy Farmer was an exciting, thrilling story that caught my attention and won’t be forgotten. The main character takes you on the adventure of a lifetime but is not too far from real life. Nhamo, the main character, has a hard time living in her village, always feeling on the outside. Her mother was killed by a leopard and her father is nowhere to be found. No one will tell her anything about her father and where he has gone, she doesn't even know if her parents were married. When she has to be sacrificed to a cruel man who already has three wives, she doesn’t know what to do. Her grandmother knew what she had to do, Nhamo had to run away with little information on how to survive in the wild. She must follow hard directions to try to find her father. She steals a boat, and is swept out into a large lake. She will battle drowning, starvation, wild animals, and the mystery of what lies ahead. The gripping adventure and spirit of the main character turned the story into a must read. One reason the story was unforgettable was how realistic it felt and how you could really connect with the reading. It made you feel like you were following the girl the whole time being able to relate to the smallest things like loving the feel of the ground after you got off a long boat ride. The detail just made it better making you able to feel exactly how she felt at that time. You were able to feel the pain when Nhamo heard news that broke her heart and enjoy some of the things we take for granted. This thrilling adventure took you somewhere you never thought you would go. This is a must read and will teach you something about the African culture.

In the beginning, I found it quite boring, but I never quit on books and lucky for me, I didn't stop because this was a real adventure. Twelve-year-old Andora ‘Andi’ Boggs and her new best friend Colin Carter couldn’t be more excited to attend the prestigious science camp at the local university in Killdeer, Ohio. Unfortunately, Discovery Camp’s curriculum appears to include much more than just chemistry and biology. From day one, the university is plagued by a series of pranks—missing markers, loose crickets, and stolen scales. Campus security blames the mysterious janitor Polk, but even though Andi agrees he’s acting suspicious, she can’t believe the gentle old man would do anything illegal. Then one prank goes too far and their chemistry professor is injured by an explosion in the lab, upping the stakes of the investigation. Andi and Colin must unravel the secrets behind the chemistry department and figure out the culprit.
