Abigail Nichols who known as just Abby. At beginning of the book, Abby is a fourth-grader along with her best friend, Sarah Moreside, and her another friend, Orrin Umhay in Lewisport. Her sisters, Rose, Fred, and Adele, along with Mama (Nell) and Pop (Luther). But Pop is not nice father to his kids and his wife. Pop has even forbad Abby to be with Orrin and Marie. In few chapters later, when Abby and her family has moved to Bargent Point (sorry if I has spelt this wrong) and met her future husband, Zander Burley, who was a Army soldier along with Richard, and former high-school/college student when Zander has married Abby in the ending. And shortly after, Mama became so sick since that Pop has sent Fred, who is a crippled boy to the special school just for the crippled kids/adults, probably just about few weeks later, Mama dies. Later in the book, when Abby was just now in the high school, she met two girls, Maureen and Darcy, and she also met; Wyman, Richard, and Helen March. In the nearly ending of the book, Helen married Abby`s father, and became her stepmom. Would recommend this book! - Happy Reading!

I've read the books until now, and I'm looking forward to read this one! Nicholas Flamel is an action packed series, and is amazing for grades 6-8 :)

Felicity Merriman, a spunky Colonial girl who lived in Virginia during the American Revolutionary War. Her parents, Mr. And Mrs. Merriman always telling Felicity specific things of what not to do, because well, she can be a troublemaker and I think she is also daredevil every time when she is left in charge of her younger sister, Nan. Her father's store apprentice, Ben, who Felicity looks up to, even though Ben doesn't even have a real power over the store. But one day, Felicity has heard that there is a horse, a copper mare, which was owned by a man named Jiggy Nye. But Mr. Nye has treated that mare very badly that this mare ended up feeling afraid of him until Felicity has rescued her who Felicity has named, Penny, because of her copper fur. It's so good that I would recommend this! - Happy Reading!

I love Little House In the Big Woods. I think it has more appeal to 3rd grade-7th grade. Laura lives with her Ma, Pa, and sisters, Mary, and Carrie, in the big woods of Wisconsin. Mary is a well behaved little girl, but Laura always finds herself getting into mischief, from slapping her sister, to tearing the seams on her pocket (on accident), she seems to get into trouble without even trying. She's jealous of Mary, with her long, golden locks, and the favor that she seemed to get from everyone. But, without showing it too much, she seems to be Pa's favorite. I liked how the book explained what they did, like when Pa was making the oven in the tree. My favorite part was during Christmas. I got the chance to actually try a maple cake, molded into the shape of a leaf, and it was very sweet!!! I love this book!

Revolution Without Emotion 1776 is a historical book about the Revolutionary War written by David McCullough. 1776 is about the year 1776 in the Revolutionary War and is composed of first hand accounts of military generals from both sides. Britain Colonies wanted freedom but Britain didn’t want them to break away. The Colonies then formed an army with George Washington as the General. 1776 talks a lot about war, training, underdogs, and resources. In my opinion 1776 was filled with too many facts and statistics and too little emotion. To me it was an unbalanced proportion between facts and feelings and I would rather it have more of the character’s thoughts instead of so many facts about what they had. In 1776 they speak very highly of General Washington and you will read multiple accounts of townspeople and colonels marveling over his magnificent build and how great he was on horseback. David McCullough wanted you to see Washington in the same way that they did 246 years ago and even puts in some quotes of Washington’s such as one which says “Perseverance and spirit have done wonders in all ages.”. Overall for me I would rate this book a three out of five because I couldn’t relate to what the characters were feeling and it was hard to passionately read like that. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves history and likes war statistics.

Brimming with emotion, this book speaks to the heart.

A great book! Definitely a wonderful choice for readers of all ages. Kenny Watson, an African -American boy, embarks on a few adventures, but the real major adventure is when the whole Watson must go south to Birmingham, Alabama. Why, you ask? Byron, Kenny’s older brother had been stirring up a LOT of trouble, such as setting toilet paper on FIRE, and also straightening his hair, so Kenny’s parents think he should stay with Grandma Sands for a while, since Grandma Sands will not accept any form of trouble at all. While in Birmingham, the family notices some extremely discriminatory events (segregation), but the final straw is when a church near Grandma Sands’s is destroyed by a BOMB, so they all decide to head home, even Byron. This book is an awesome realistic-fiction, and it really cracked me up some of the time. Definitely recommended.

I like the book. It is easy for me to read. I like the adventures they go on. I want to read more books from the author.
