Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons
By Eric Litwin
Even though I read this book in 1st grade & i'm in 5th now, I still remember this book so I've decided to review it. I thought it was very funny. The Pete The Cat series used to be my favorite. I love how he didn't get upset because he lost a button, he just thought it was, quote "groovy" to have 3! I think this book is really good for kidnergardners, 1st graders & 2nd graders. The whole series of The Pete The Cat book's is good for those grades too.
Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes
By Eric Litwin
Pete the cat is one of my favorite series yet! The books are creative and fun while teaching little ones life lessons and social skills. My daughter learned so much from this book she now is able to recognize letters make words by spelling each color (brown,blue, red). Great book for preschoolers.

Project Mc2: Smart is the New Cool: Includes Science Experiments!
By Jade Hemsworth
I enjoy spy books and mystery books and this book really entertained me. McKeyla is a spy in an all girl facility. She moves around to different states infiltrating schools. In this book McKeyla is assigned to keep Prince Xander safe before he goes into space. She teams up with the three smartest girls in the school and saves the day, obviously. If you are interested in STEAM, this is a good book to read, too.
It's the End of the World and I'm in My Bathing Suit
By Reynolds, Justin A.
I haven't read it yet but I was a bit disappointed when I found out it wasn't a graphic novel because the ad I watched made it look like a graphic novel.

Dawn and the Impossible Three: Full-Color Edition (The Baby-Sitters Club Graphix #5)
By Ann M. Martin
This is the first book in the baby sitters club series graphic novels that is written by author and cartoonist Gale Galligan. In this book Dawn, the newest member of the club gets a continuous job with some new clients, the Barrettes. The first time that Dawn baby sits for them, she notices that they're house is a little messy (well a lot) but doesn't think to much of it. After all they had just moved. So Dawn helps clean up the mess, thinking that it is a one time thing. But after Ms. Barrett forgets to mention important details, and cleaning up starts to become routine, Dawn isn't sure she want to baby sit for the Barrett's anymore. Will Dawn be able to confront Ms. Barrett about the problems? Read the book to find out! This book was really good and a very quick and fun read. It does touch a slightly serious topic but keeps it so it is still not too scary. I love Gale Galligan's illustrations. Hope you like this book and this review! Happy Reading!
Star Wars: Jedi Academy
By Jeffrey Brown
Absolutely great book! Hilarious and a fun story! My favorite part is when the main character , Roan, imagines Yoda. He imagines Yoda as six feet tall, with bulging muscles, battle scars, and with two Samurai swords on his back. Instead, he's two feet tall, green, has lots of ear hair, and talks backwards. I reccomend this book to people who enjoy funny comic books. I would also reccomend Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate to readers who like this book.
Molly's Story: A Dog's Purpose Novel
By W. Bruce Cameron
Title: Molly's Story Author: W. Bruce Camron Genre: Realistic Fiction Overall this book deserves a 5/10 because it has some sad parts, there are cliff hangers and, many funny parts. This book also has many interesting chapters that will want to make you read more for example when Gloria brings Molly to the shelter while CJ is at school. I would say this book should be for 4th grade and up if a 3rd grader tried to read it they might get confused about some parts.
