Emergency responders are stuck on duty, including Emma's father, a police officer... Amid the war, Hermes dies in the fighting. In his final moments, he passes on his winged sandals to Paelen, who tries to deny them, but Hermes insists, which finally persuades him, and finally accepts them after Hermes passes away. Using the sandals, Paelen escapes the yelling Nirads by flying above them, as they try to shoot him down with their spears. Arriving at the heart of the battle, where more Nirads are attempting to extinguish the Vestal Flame, Paelen encounters Pegasus and attempts to remove his golden bridle, which consequently attracts lighting, knocking them both unconscious, pushing them down onto Earth. When they awake, one finds themself in a hospital, while the other ends up quite literally, stuck in a rose bush, on top of Emma's and her father's apartment. Emma hears the bang of Pegasus landing but tells herself it's most likely her deceased mother's garden shed falling over but finally convinces herself to go up. When she makes it up the stairs, she finds Pegasus. She tries to help him out, but scratches herself, in the act. After a moment, Pegasus has been freed, but she gets kicked and goes unconscious. After waking up, she notices two more injuries on poor Pegasus. A spear Stuck in his wing and a broken bone. Returning to her apartment, trying to get the creams and salves — her father used on her mother's bed sores during her fight with cancer, which is how she died —, along with ice cream for herself, and vegetables for the "horse." Surprising Emma, Pegasus insists on eating the ice cream instead of the vegetables, forcing Emma to eat them herself. Soon after, Emma is wondering how she is going to help Pegasus, she doesn't know how to set his wing, nor is strong enough to pull out the spear on her own. Finally, she comes to the conclusion, that as much as she doesn't want to, she has to ask Joel, her school bully, to help her. After all, he's always drawing pictures of Pegasus... At the hospital, Emma's father has been called in. Paelen has awoken and is healing fast, surprising the doctor, but there will be more to surprise him, after his blood test results come back. Paelen is careful about revealing to much information, but accidentally reveals too much, making him seem crazy, which doesn't surprise them too much, since he was suspected to have been at a costume party, sat to close to the window, got struck by lightning, and fell out.... After the test results come back, with a very much concerned nurse, due to them, Emma's father is sent home, since they had to call the CRU (Central Research Unit), who of which deal with rare phenomena, including UFO's...

The book the Magic School bus space EXPLORERS is a very good book because the book has everything i like,like zooming through space having a robot right by you.

To be honest, I absolutely love the I Survived series. The whole series is basically in the point of view of a person who survived a war, a horrible event, a terrorism attack, etc. It's basically a history book, but it sounds like a narrative and it's really to-the-point. This book is about Lucas, who loves football. When he gets a concussion during practice, the doctor says that his concussion is really bad for an 11-year-old. Lucas' parents decide that the sport is too dangerous, now that he has a concussion. Lucas has to talk to Uncle Benny, who taught him everything about football. He hopes that Uncle Benny can change his parents' mind. So, Lucas skips school and visits Uncle Benny (who is a firefighter in New York) and his dad, who works with Uncle Benny in the fire department. While they are talking, they were heading toward the Twin Towers when the first plane crashed! Uncle Benny and the firefighters (including Lucas' dad) tries to save as many people as they can. Lucas, on the other hand, tries to help as best as he can, but the room they are in collapses! Will everyone (or anyone) get out alive? Read this book to find out. I would not recommend this book to younger readers, because this is a very serious topic and not appropriate for them. Even though this was a short read, it made plenty of emotions rush through me - fear, angst, horror, and even happiness and relief. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I wept a little wept occasionally. One more thing: terrorism is an awful, awful thing, and I just hope that we can achieve world peace one day. Even if we do have one golden minute of world peace, I feel everything would crumble down again.. I'm sorry. I love this book, but I would subtract one star for not having a very good base or anything I can connect to.

Claudette Colvin: Twice Toward Justice is a truly powerful and important book. It tells the story of a brave teenager who stood up against segregation by refusing to give up her seat on a bus—months before Rosa Parks. Claudette’s voice comes through clearly, and the book does an amazing job showing how one young person can make a difference. It’s emotional, educational, and deeply inspiring. This is a must-read for anyone wanting to understand the real heroes of the Civil Rights Movement. I couldn’t stop thinking about it after I finished!
