ITS INTERESTING BUT ONCE YOU READ IT OVER AND OVER AGIAN IT GETS KIND OF BOARING BUT ITS A GOOD BOOK!

Jessica, a skilled runner, loses her leg in a car accident. She thinks her life is over when she finds out that she needs a prosthetic leg because her life practically is running. Jessica starts to feel exposed, even when she's with her family. People act like she's practically invisible, until she meets Rosa. Rosa is a girl with cerebral palsy in Jessica's math class that everybody overlooks, especially Jessica. They develop a relationship that wasn't there before, because Rosa can see into Jessica's heart. Her family, teammates, and friends try to raise money for Jessica's prosthetic. Jessica wants to cross the finish line, but not by herself; she's taking Rosa with her. This is a really inspiring story. I'm not a runner, and I prefer lounging on the couch reading a book. In my opinion, I'm a very lazy, procrastinating person. This book made me want to just run. I had really high expectations for this book, but Jessica didn't seem to go out of the average girl-type of bubble. Rosa reminded me of Augutus from TFIOS because she had little pieces of paper that had the most memorable quotes ever. Jessica also had a love interest who was particularly annoying. He ignored Jessica before she got a prosthetic, and just magically started caring for Jessica. I mean, who does that?!? Seriously. I was really worried that Jessica and Rosa wouldn't stay friends after a while. This is because when I read books that have supporting characters with a disability, they help the main character and they they disappear as quickly as they were introduced. This bothers me very much, but at least this book didn't do this. It was a very close call. Overall, I would rate this book a 3.5 out of 5 stars. It was about average. Signing off, -ifeelbookish

In the book The Marble Champ Lupe learns to never give up even when things get hard. I know this because it said that she did some thumb push-ups and she was out of breath but she never gave up. She Kept on doing your thumb push-ups, when she had beat the neighbor kid that I happen to be very good at marbles. She was excited for herself and she thought “ I might be good enough for a tournament”,. She never gave up when she was practicing no matter how hard her thumb hurted or how hard it was hard to beat her brother or the neighbor kid she never gave up. And she never gave up when she saw that the girl in the baseball cap with a dead straight face on and Lupe said to her dad. “ I don't know Dad, she looks pretty tough.” but she did it and she won. My first reason that Lupe never gives up is when she is doing her thumb push-ups and she runs out of breath. She doesn't say oh well I give up on being The Marble Champ she keeps going. I know this because when she was in her room on a rainy day and she decided she wanted to be good at something besides school like a sport. So she decided to play marbles she took some marbles out of her dresser (her brothers old marbles) and started practicing she knew she wasn't going to be good unless she practiced so she practiced her marbles against her bedspread and then her legs and then she started putting them in her hand. That's when she found out she had to exercise her thumb for hitting the marble because you have to use your thumb to flick the marble. My second reason that Lupe never gives up is when she beats the neighbor kid and her brother at marbles. I know this because when Lupe was testing how good she was on her neighbor kid he said ” she can beat the other girls for sure I think” . So Lupe was good enough to go to the tournament. She didn't give up because she practiced and practiced to get better. I know it's because in the text it said “practice, practice, practice, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze she got better by doing some thumb push-ups and squeezing an eraser. An effect to her working hard was that she got a huge muscle in her thumb. Her mom even though her thumb was swollen but Lupe said '' it's a muscle”. My third reason that Lupe never gives up is when she was in the tournament and she saw the girl with the baseball cap and a dead serious face and she didn't know if she could beat her. I know this because when she was at the tournament and she was in the last competition because she beat all the other girls. She said to her dad “ I don't know Dad she looks pretty tough” and her friend Rachel said “Go get her”. (Rachel is one of the girls who competed against Lupe and Lupe asked her to join the team to cheer her on). In conclusion in the book The Marble Champ Lupe learns to never give up even when things get hard. I know this because it said that she did some thumb push-ups and she was out of breath but she never gave up she Kept on doing thumb push ups, when she had beat the neighbor kid that I happen to be very good at marbles.And she never gave up when she saw that the girl in the baseball cap with a dead straight face on and she said to her dad “ I don't know Dad she looks pretty tough.” but she did it and she won.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The world and the news were on fire. You were probably alive when this happened. Titan and the Wild Boars (The True Cave Rescue Of The Thai Soccer Team.) Written by Susan Hood and Pathana Sornhiran, illustrated by Dow Phumiruk. Published in 2019. Titan and the Wild Boars is dramatic, fun, outstanding, and very well written. Titan and the Wild Boars is about a Thai soccer team getting stuck in a cave. After practice the team decides to go exploring in a cave. They have already explored the cave before, so they thought it was safe (bad idea.) It started to rain, A LOT and the cave was flooded with rainwater, which was NOT good. They were stuck for 18 days! Through some deaths and tears...the boys and coach made it out alive. After the cave incident, the team went to the hospital. They were given food and water. I mean, 18 days without FOOD, I can’t even go 1 minute!!!!! Some water was clean and dripped down from the ceiling, and that’s what they drank! But through all of that… they are still alive. My favorite part of this story is all the heroes, but I have more. I like the heroes because they risk their lives for 19 people! One person even DIED for them. All of them tried so hard to try to find and rescue the team. When divers found them the world rejoiced! NEWS: They found the boys! We do not need to panic! Thank you for the Navy, and more for trying to find them! Then the worst part of the story happened…(But you have to wait) The illustrations were amazing! Also props to the authors of the story. If you are in upper elementary school, middle school or for an easy read in high school, there is a book called Rising Water. This book gives you more information about the story. (GET A TISSUE FOR THIS PARAGRAPH) The most memorable part of this story is Saman Kunan, because...he...died. (I know it’s HARSH) You see Saman was a Navy SEAL diver and volunteer. He was going looking for the team. With his partner. Let me remind you that it’s pitch black in the cave. Close your eyes for a second...that’s basically how dark it was. Even their lights barely helped! So if you lost something, you LOST IT. Well Saman didn’t lose a sandwich he… lost…his...life. I KNOW IT’S HARSH. You see he was looking for the boys with his partner, and his mouthpiece fell off. His partner tried to help, but he fell unconscious. Before he fell unconscious, he and his partner tried to find the mouthpiece. But… it was lost, he died at around, one am, on Friday, July 6, 2018. This was the first time the world stopped spinning. Not actually. But, it did feel like it. After the boys were rescued Titan’s relatives made a picture of Saman. So there you have it ladies and gentlemen. Make sure to pray for Saman Kunan. For we all shall meet in Heaven. Titan And The Wild Boars is fun, sad, jeerful, and very well written. I recommend this book to lighthearted people because to read this book you need to not get sad easily. I DO NOT recommend this book to people who can’t take sad things because as you know someone does die. Also if you get scared easily DO NOT read this book! Don’t forget that, 1. There is another book for upper elementary school st, middle school, and high school students, and 2. You were probably alive when this happened. HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!
