The Chocolate War (M Books)

The Chocolate War (M Books)

By Robert Cormier

This book is about a highschool boy named Jerry Renault transferred to a high school called Trinity. The main characters include Jerry and Archie. Jerry is the new student of Trinity. Archie is the chief of the secret organization in Trinity. Archie sends people out to do missions for the secret organization. When the secret organization is on a mission, they use a black box which contains black and white dice. If Archie picks the white dice, he doesn’t have to do the mission on his own; If Archie picks up the black dice, he has to do the mission himself. The most intense part of the story is when Jerry saw a sentence in his locker, saying “Do I dare to disturb the universe?” When I am reading this, I wondered what Jerry will do, and how he would react to it. I chose this book because the title of this book is very interesting. I have no idea what the title “the chocolate war” means. I thought the book was about people fighting with chocolate. I will recommend this book for my friends because this book reflected many things in real life, such as bully and peer isolation.

This has really helped me with my homework and with some of the thing that we don't have time to go over in Math class. The way the author describes functions and algebra is creative and helps you realize how math works. Its the perfect book for people with mathproblems.

Cloud Busting

I have read this book and it's one book you should not judge by its cover. Read after the chapter 'Shadow' and it will all make sense. It's all written in poem but don't let that put you off. I think it is amazing. The age I recommend it for is 11+ because younger people may not understand. Even they could read it. It's not disturbing, it's just it will be easier to understand if you are 11+.

Tornado (Young Explorer: Wild Weather)

By Catherine Chambers

This book is a great book. It is about tornados. It tells you that they are very dangerous. Also it tells you that you should stay on low ground if you see a tornado. I think that this book helps me learn a lot about this dangerous thing. Even though they are dangerous they are very fun to look at. That is a little bit about this book.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meet Oteg, a man racing in the Iditarod, a man that gives 18 year old Bright Dawn advice on how to race the Iditarod. This book is one of the top 50 books that I've read, and that's saying a lot, because I've read a lot of books. It has a scary beginning, but then there are twists in the story. Read this book to find out what they are...
