Because of the Rabbit
By Cynthia Lord
Dylan Leibl-Cot
This book is called Because Of The Rabbit.The author of the book is Cynthia Lord, and the year it was written was in April 2019. This book was very well written ,and funny and also very serious.I think it was good because they had an adventure and saved a bunny. The hardest part in the book was saving the bunny,from the fence Alexa is a girl who is in an public school.At the end of the book she wanted to give a letter to the queen asking not to close the gates right away.She was in her other castle.When the girl gets to the castle the police catch her and call the mom and the step mom.The girls give the note to the queen asking not to close the gates so Amat’s mom and dad could get through the gates.The mom and dad get to him safely.Ahmet had a vcat and a sister but died in a war.Ahmet and his family ran away from the war. My most entertained part is when they save the bunny,from the fence.I also like how they got the bunny out of the really tight fence.It amazed me because it sounded hard to get the bunny out.The whole book also told me what the bunny looked like.My favorite place is actually the school because it shows more people to the book. Because of the Rabbit was very funny,embarrassing.I think the book should be a little longer.But it makes me curious in a way.A good recommendation is my mom , and my dad should read it almost every day.But what I do not recommend is to read it to the higher grades because they would probably be in another world/thinking about other stuff. Because of the Rabbit.Because of the Rabbit made me feel introduced to the book.I had been introduced by the book showing me the characters like and what they do for a living.I also thought the book introduced Lapi with a problem,when the Rabbit was stuck in the fence.The book also made me feel attractive.The book made me feel attractive by showing me more characters and more places.
Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret
By Judy Blume
This book represents the awkwardness of growing up. Margaret is experiences this difficulties that all of us girls can relate to. Judy Blume's heartwarming and interesting touch kept me from putting this book down. And the religious aspect, absolutely outstanding! Margaret's parents are Atheist, or don't believe in God. Margaret secretly prays to the God she felt is there in her heart, rather than what she learned from her parents. This book teaches us that growing up is difficult and that we aren't alone.

Finding the Worm (Twerp Sequel)
By Mark Goldblatt
Finding the worm has a complicated title, but it has heart. This story is about Julian, "Jules", Tweski, a Jewish person living in Flushing, Queens. It is a superb book, of decent writing. In the end, the themes in this book were very thought-provoking. The style, in regards to using many commas and ands, added to the experience of being a relatable book. A brief description: Quentin, "Quick Quentin", has a tumor. The kids on the block, Lonnie, Shlomo, Julian, Eric, and Howie, who live in the Dorado House or such named buildings, go on with their lives, and Julian, whose Bar Mitzvah is coming up, learns from the rabbi (a very good character with witty lines) about death. All the while, Julian Tweski records his thoughts about life and all the events that happen during this time. It was interesting reading a book that portrayed the 70s and life in New York so well, painting a vivid picture of the activities of those living in this time. Many of the landmarks described within this book I could find on the Internet; likewise with the baseball players. It's a sequel to the book TWERP but you don't have to read that one (it does give you some spoilers though). All in all, a sad and thoughtful book at the end, but some middle parts, describing their daily activities, were a little "meh". It is a contemplative realistic fiction book with good dialogue.

The School is Alive!: A Branches Book (Eerie Elementary #1)
By Jack Chabert
"School just got scarier!"- Sam Graves is Eerie Elementary's hall monitor. He has to wear an orange sash. On his first day as hall monitor, Sam Graves discovers that his school is alive and is hungry for kids! Only Sam can defeat the school, and his friends decide to help, too! The story ends like a normal book, but the middle was great! The book was very quick, but still enjoyable. The beginning was good but I think the rest is better. My favorite part is when Antonio's PB&J sandwich saves his friends.. The drawings are really good and probably took a while to work on! I would say it would take 40+ minutes to read this book. I loved how there was an illustration on every page. Jack Chabert and Sam Ricks published this book on June 24, 2014. Jack Chabert was once a hall monitor just like Sam, but his school was not alive. Today, Jack Chabert monitors the halls a different building: an apartment. Sam Ricks went to a haunted grade school, but just like Jack's school, it was not alive. He teaches illustration and design at an art institute. At the end of the book, Sam knew it would be a while before the school strikes again, so he has a lot of time to train himself before the school rises again! I think the book would be better if there was little minions that Sam had to fight, but even without them it is still an amazing book! I am looking forward to reading the second book of the Eerie Elementary series! I enjoyed this book and I give a 5/5. I recommend this book to anybody who thinks school is scary enough.

The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants
By Ann Brashares
4 best friends. 4 different destinations for the summer. 1 pair of magical pants. This is a recipe for a summer Carmen, Tibby, Lena, and Bridget will never forget!! The 4 friends are all going different places for the first time in their lives this summer. It’s going to be very different. On their last day together before parting ways, they find a seemingly normal pair of pants in Carmen’s closet. But when they try them on, they realize the pants fit everyone perfectly!!! They must be magic, because they all have different body types and heights. They decide to send the pants back and forth during the summer so they can each have some of its luck. Get ready for a wild ride, because this book has a lot of fun and energy inside! I personally really enjoyed this book, but it does have some mature content, so I recommend it for grades 8 and up, maybe 7th grade if you are a mature reader. What will the Pants have in store for you?? :)
