I really liked the book Water Street By Patricia Reilly Giff because of the characters their adventure. In the book a 13 year old girl named Bridget Mallon ( Bird for short ) lives in a small tenement with her mom, dad, sister, and brother the family has a very nice life. Bird wants to be a healer like her mom but after an incident with the milkman's boy, Bird is too scared to be a healer. But then a boy named Thomas Neary moves into the tenement above Bird. Thomas is the same age as Bird and Thomas really likes writing. Thomas moved into the tenement with his dad who he calls pop. When Bird and Thomas meet the are friends right away, one day Bird and Thomas go one a small adventure after a girl tells Bird her family is very sick and she needs help. Bird is scared to help the girls family but then Thomas restores her courage and bravery. If you like adventure and a little bit of scary stuff I think you will really like this book.

Usually books focus on Helen Keller. But what do we know about her extraordinary teacher, Annie Sullivan? This book is amazing, so good that I own a copy myself! I like to have it at my bed so before I sleep I can read the triumphs of Annie Sullivan. Miss Spitfire is Annie's nickname. She is fierce and determined-and without her fierce determination she would not have had the breakthrough with Helen Keller. Helen is a beast. She is treated cautiously and never deprived of anything. Cake is always close at hand to calm the wild child. Annie Sullivan arrives-a new teacher, half blind, with the determination that has ensured her education and personality. Helen needs more than a teacher. She needs someone to love her in a way that her parent's couldn't possibly. She needs a miracle worker.

this book is amazing for middle school aged kids it is also great if you like historical fiction books. If you like this you should try the other books in the series

Honestly, this book had me a little bit confused at a few points. Roger and Sally are twins who must help their mother hide gold that will pay the American soldiers. The British try to steal the gold. The twins and their mother must do whatever it takes to keep the treasure out of the hands of the British. This is an okay book, if a little confusing and boring. It's almost too fast-paced to be understandable.

So os so good!

really really good really long though.

I just finished this book, and I just LOVED it! If you like Little House on the Prarie, this book is for you. The book is like Little House on the Prarie, but it takes place in the city. The girl in the story "Lucinda" is a very nice and michevious girl. She makes friends with everyone she meets. I reccomend this book.

If you are doing Amelia Earhart in the Wax Museum this is the perfect book for you!
