Wishtree
By Katherine Applegate
There are many ways to write a book. Some write it from the perspective of an old person, and some write it from the eye of a child. Whether from the view of the old, young, girls, boys, babies, or the dead, most books are written from the perspective of people, or sometimes animals, since we are humans ourselves and understand humans and animals best. Catherine Applegate's depiction of the mind of a tree has rarely been seen before. As normal beings stroll across lawns, past tens and hundreds of trees, we all take it for granted. They are just there, born to become chairs or assistants of mother Earth, but hardly appreciated at all. There are many conservation programs that tries to save the trees that are being cut down, but they are all looked upon as objects. In Wishtree, Applegate brings life to trees, gifting the readers with an memoir of a tree as an actual independent being full of hope and life. It allows readers to gaze upon trees and see them in a whole new light, marveling at their abilities and sometimes whispering softly to them. Red, the tree, brings a new perspective into life, appreciating things that are wholesome, and making unfulfilled things whole. Applegate's simple language brings out the beauty of words, with complexity beneath seemingly easy sentences. Her words bring a stirring to the heart livening every word. It brings together the most complex of human nature, and shows the perception of it all in a simple way. The leaves rustling in the wind, the birds chirping in the bushes, we are all alive, but sometimes it is forgotten that the trees breath with us and the birds sing along our tunes. The world has been reborn in this book, and now after reading the book, everything has come alive again.
Good Dog
By Dan Gemeinhart
I ended my 2017 reading year with this book. And I could not have lucked out with a better one. Brodie is a dog - a very good dog - who has died. Rather than let go and move on to Forever, Brodie chooses to return to our world to save Aidan, his boy, from danger. What entails is an adventure so unique that I couldn’t put this book down. Good Dog is BEAUTIFUL. An omniscient narrator tells the story, occasionally breaking from his POV to address the reader, which connected me to Brodie and Aidan more and more. The flashbacks Brodie experienced as memories of his past with Aidan came flooding back were vivid, sometimes excruciating, and always intentional in ways that kept me guessing. Gemeinhart’s use of imagery only added to that vividness. But the best part? Brodie’s VOICE. So singular, original, and pure, highlighting the bond between this dog and his boy. I fell in love with Brodie from the jump, laughing and crying as he worked to complete his quest. He is a character I will remember forever. This book is, in my opinion, one for the middle-grade ages, teaching kids that heroism is a choice that can come in any form.

Stink and the Shark Sleepover
By Megan McDonald
Stink is an awesome book. Everyone should read this book. You will learn a lot of facts about sea animals. It also has funny parts. Another good reason is it’s a series. This book is about Stink Moody. He is afraid of sleepovers and he has to go to one. It is at the aquarium. His friends are going too. Their names are Webster and Sophie. Then they go on a scavenger hunt. They learn about jellyfish, sharks, and squid. One reason to read Stink is that he is Judy Moody’s little brother. I loved the book because it had facts. It has a surprise ending.
