This book is about a boy who want a pet star. I think this book is crazy. The boy is trying to do something that is impossible. This book is sweet. It has a nice ending that made me smile. If you like stars and nice endings, you will like this book.

Sunny Side Up

Sunny Side Up

By Jennifer L. Holm

This story is really good because it would definitely help children who relate to Sunny to not feel ashamed of her family and scared of them while also not being scared of asking for help. I don't want to spoil this but I will say it is very good.

Bad Luck (The Bad Books)

Bad Luck (The Bad Books)

By Pseudonymous Bosch

Como C. Llama is the best! We loved this series!!!! 6 year old only wanted to review this series. 8 year old started collecting llamas because of Como, a beloved character. 11 year old and Mom all loved this series, many laughs were had, a bit of nail biting, but mostly just adventure and mystery and we didn't want it to end. My, now 9 year old has written reports on this series, because it was truly a joy to read.

Harbor Me

Harbor Me

By Jacqueline Woodson

Jarvis B.

It all starts when six kids have to meet for a weekly chat--by themselves, with no adults to listen in. There, in the room they soon dub the ARTT Room (short for "A Room to Talk"), they discover it's safe to talk about what's bothering them--everything from Esteban's father's deportation and Haley's father's incarceration to Amari's fears of racial profiling and Ashton's adjustment to his changing family fortunes. When the six are together, they can express the feelings and fears they have to hide from the rest of the world. And together, they can grow braver and more ready for the rest of their lives.

Scaredy Squirrel

Scaredy Squirrel

By Mélanie Watt

A third-person beginner to the Scaredy Squirrel series, Scaredy Squirrel is a great book for light reading, or for beginners in literature. The setting alone - that is to say, respectively, Scaredy Squirrel's nut tree, sets the plot structure, in which Scaredy must overcome his fears and come outside in order to rescue his beloved safety kit. A heartwarming picture book that shows young ones that maybe the unknown is inevitable but rewarding, this modern fable popularized Watt's other works, such as "Have I Got a Book for You?," "Chester," and the follow-ups in the collection, plus his Halloween and Christmas guides. I loved this book because of its humorous moral and simplistic graphics, and would encourage all critter-lovers, be them toddlers or tweens, but NOT GREEN MARTIANS, to read this Melanie Watt wonder.

Lila and Hadley

Lila and Hadley

By Kody Keplinger

I loved this! I love dogs that help someone like how Lila helps Hadley. Amazing story! Great to pass some time.

How to Survive Middle School

How to Survive Middle School

By Donna Gephart

I did not really like this book. How to survive middle school is a realistic fiction book by Donna Gephart, and I think its kind of cheesy. The main character makes some pretty bad decisions on his first day, and it goes down hill from there. He is not friends with his best friend any more, and makes a new one, but the way he acts around her is weird and ridiculous. And he also has this really cringey YouTube videos with his hamster that make him blow up on line. I would reccomend for 8+

Sunny Rolls the Dice

Sunny Rolls the Dice

By Jennifer L. Holm

Title :Sunny rolls the dice Author: Jennifer L Holm & Matthew Holm Genre:autobiography/ Memoir I chose two for my rating because It was kind of challenging.I didn't learn anything from the book Sunny rolls the dice. what I found interesting about the book was that sunny Only cares about what her friends think about her and not what she thinks about herself. I would recommend this book too grades 3-6 because it is kind of challenging.
