This is my book reweiw of Alice and wonderland Lewis Carroll. Alice and wonderlands setting is in the 1800s in England, and alice falls Into hole by the rabbit who lured her into wonderland and she dreamed about wonderland and all the characters. And she has get out of wonderland. And hatter kinda gives Alice riddles for her to solve as she goes on her journey. And Cheshire cat is the only cat that listen to Alice and the cat was the queens. And the queen wants Alice to be executed because Alice made a insult about her. But Alice manages to escape out of the queens castle. The protagonist is Alice and the antagonist is the queen. Alice got out of wonderland. What I liked about the book was the adventure and the story line.

So I went to the library and I was going to start 'The Kane Chronicles' but they only had the first one so I got that and this book. I wasn't sure if I was gonna like it even though I'm a huge Percy Jackson fan but I got it anyways...and I LOVED it! WARNING: could be spoilers ahead.................(anddd start) The first part is called 'The Diary Of Luke Castellan' and it's about when Luke (son of Hermes) and Thalia (daughter of Zeus) are on an adventure to survive and then they meet Annabeth (daughter of Athena) who is it only 7 years old. Honestly Rick could have wrote a few books off that diary entry. The second part of this book is called 'Percy Jackson and the Staff Of Hermes' ok so this part of the book starts off with Percy and Annabeth are having a picnic then Hermes pulls up and gives Percy a quest to find his caduceus—his staff of power which has to snakes—george and martha wrapped around it. So they (percy and annabeth) go on an adventure to find it (and theres always a time-limit.) They fight a giant come back just in time and Hermes does Percy a favor that I'm not gonna spoil...so read the book 👍 the next part of the book is a short interview with George and Martha, Hermes snakes. The next story is called 'Leo Valdez and the Quest for Buford' this story (I'm gonna try not to spoil too much) ok so first Leo blames Windex for this entire story :) ok so basically Buford is a table, this table can move Leo is building something that needs a certain piece if that piece does not go on what he's building it will explode half of Camp Half-Blood...so Leo, Piper, and Jason all go through the woods and —————————i didn't want to spoil it sorry... Anyways the last story in the book is not written by rick Riordan but his SON Haley Riordan and all I could say about it was "WHERE IS THE SERIES FOR THIS STORY!?!?" no joke it's so amazing its called 'Son Of Magic' it starts of as a normal mortal (Dr. Claymore) who writes books about death (I'm pretty sure) anyways let's fast-forward ------------ Dr. Claymore meets Alabaster a magic half-blood that fought with kronos in the titan war. Anywaysss alabasters monster sister tries to kill him an dr. Claymore helps him. I don't wanna spoil anymore and I've been typing this for an hour so thanks for reading. This is an amazing book I 100% thank you! And good-bye ❤❤❤❤

Dubbed as one of the most beautiful books ever written, Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic "A Little Princess" revolves around a little girl named Sara Crewe who has everything. Her wardrobes are full to bursting with lavish attire, she is allowed extravagant porcelain dolls to play with, and her father is investing in some diamond mines in India that could make millions. Naturally, when Sara is sent to Miss Minchin's Seminary for Young Ladies, she is treated like royalty and with the utmost respect. In turn, impeccably-mannered Sara becomes a great favorite not only because of her money but because of her kindness. However, when her father dies and the diamond mine deal drains all his money but fails, young Sara Crewe is left with not a thing in the world to call her own except her doll. Forced to become a drudge and work day and night in rags for now-forboding Miss Minchin, Sara is dirty, alone, and worked to the bone. But what no one can take from Sara is her wherewithal, and even in the short little black dress smudged with dirt and torn to rags, Sara is a little princess in a class of her very own.

"You should never, never doubt something no one is sure of." When Willy Wonka, world's most acclaimed chocolatier, shut down his famous chocolate factory - he seemed to vanish off the face of the earth! That is, until one miraculous day, when Willy Wonka himself wrapped five Golden Tickets, "keys" to Willy Wonka's exclusive tour to his chocolate factory, within his signature scrumptious chocolate bars.. and Charlie, a starving boy with a diet consisting of only cabbage soup and no luck whatsoever, is eager to get his hands on one of them. Unfortunately, the honor of finding them is presented to four perfectly horrid children, and Charlie seems out of luck - until he spots a speck of gold behind his creamy chocolate bar. He's done it! But little does Charlie know that this is just the beginning of his grand adventures, for Willy Wonka himself teases a very special prize for only one of the five children - and all of the children desperately want to be the winner. Will it be one of the four horrid, spoiled, gum-obsessed children? Or will it be Charlie himself? To find out, join Willy Wonka and the five children on a wondrous adventure involving edible grass, magical gum, nut-killing squirrels, terrifying incinerators, blinding shrink rays, and most importantly, chocolate! This book is undoubtedly magical - Roald Dahl is a splendid writer, one that knows how to write characters well - you can end up physically cheering when villains meet their end. Even though the villains' ends were particularly delectable, overall, this book was quirky and cheerful, with fantastic descriptions of the factory and an appeal for all ages of chocolate fanatics. Who wouldn't end up rooting for the wonderfully insane Willy Wonka - this book left me craving more, and I immediately went off to hunt for the sequel, which was even more deliciously wonderful than the last. Roald Dahl has left us another classic that will both children and adults smile from beginning to end!

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!

Warning! This review contains spoilers (not that it matters because there's absolutely no suspense in this book whatsoever). There's this little girl named Heidi, and both of her parents died when she was a baby. So went to go live with her aunt and her grandmother (on her mom's side). But then her grandmother dies. So, her aunt sends her to live with her grandfather (on her dad's side). Her grandfather lives in the mountains, and everyone who lives near him says he's really mean. But Heidi's aunt doesn't care and sends her to live with him anyway. Heidi then makes friends with a boy named Peter and his grandmother. After Heidi has lived with her grandfather for a few years, her aunt comes back. Then she basically takes her to live with some random rich people, so there daughter will have a companion. What I thought of it: This book was extremely boring. Heidi was an extremely irritating character. She basically prances around bringing joy and sunshine to everyone she comes in contact with for no apparent reason. It's like everyone loves her and no one knows why. Then, eventually, in addition to going around bringing joy to everyone, she starts going around and preaching to everyone. She's probably no more than 10 years old, and suddenly (after one talk with a girl's grandmamma) she knows everything about God. It's absolutely ridiculous. Also, she just magically learns how to read in two seconds. One minute she's completely illiterate, and the next, she's the world's best reader. What up with that? Not to mention the fact that she's a total jerk. Once some of her new friends come to visit her, she starts completely (and pretty much without a reason), ignoring her friend Peter. This causes Peter to become VERY angry. I mean some of his reactions were a bit extreme, but he definitely had a right to be mad. And Heidi just continues to prance around as if nothing has happened. I mean she never even addresses the fact that he's angry. Ever. But there was one thing that REALLY bothered me about this situation. When Heidi wanted Peter to do something, and he refused, she had the nerve to threaten him! And he listened! I really couldn't believe it. But for now, I'm going to take break from talking about Heidi, and talk about the other characters. Heidi's grandfather was completely inconsistent character. He was said to have been really mean, but he's never portrayed doing anything mean. As soon as Heidi shows up he pretty much welcomes her with open arms. Then when she leaves, he says he never wants to see her again. But then she comes back again, he's perfectly happy to see her. People are always saying how terrible he is, but we never see him do anything terrible. I mean the writer meant to write him as one of those "Don't judge a book by it's cover" character, but did a really bad job. I also didn't like the fact that Heidi's friend Klara just came to the mountains and magically got better. I mean the girl couldn't walk her entire life, and then she comes to the mountains and has the ability to walk by the end of the summer. Yet another unrealistic thing that happened in this book to add to the list. I could go on forever picking out the flaws in this book, but I think I'm going to go ahead and wrap this review up. I can't help but feel that this entire book was just completely dedicated to making Heidi seem like she was a perfect little angel, when in reality, she was a total brat. I mean they never addressed any of her flaws. But instead, they tried (and failed) to completely cover them all up. The morals of the story seemed to be: Trust in God and he will fix all your problems (which isn't a bad thing, but they could have portrayed that in a way that wasn't completely preachy. I mean they pretty much had the same conversation over and over with different people.), The mountains are a magical place and if you go there all your health issues will magically disappear, and Heidi is the best thing since sliced bread. You should love her with all her heart even though she doesn't really have any really good character traits. Overall, it was a very boring and preachy book, and I have no idea why this is a classic. On second thought, it being boring and preachy is probably the very reason it's a classic.

ALL FOUR GAMES ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!! BEST GAMES!!

This book opens with Jabez Wilson, a pawnbroker with unique blazing red hair, visiting Sherlock Holmes to ask for help about a mysterious job he and Wilson had been working. For the simple task of copying parts of a book for a few hours each day, Wilson was paid an amount by a Red-headed League; but suddenly, the Red-headed League disappeared. Holmes investigated and concluded that Vincent Spaulding, who had just recently begun working as an assistant at Wilson's shop and had shown Wilson the Red-headed League's advertisement in a newspaper, is the infamous criminal, John Clay. He figures out Clay had been using the scam of the Red-Headed League to keep Wilson out of his shop so that Clay, along with some accomplice, could dig a tunnel to the vault of a neighboring bank. Along with a bank manager and a police chief, Holmes sets up an ambush in the bank vault and captures the criminals. This is the first sherlock holmes I read. And its amazing!

I recommend this book because it shows you what she went through in her life and all the drama she went through and how she got her way out of thing she didn't want to be in and also see had showed her friends and she would tell her secrets and show quote as well.
