A Spark of Light: A Novel
By Jodi Picoult
this book is for a more mature reader, like maybe at least eighth grade. it has violence, and talks about abortion, but it really is a perspective-changing book. the story is really touching, and is worth reading.

Just a Few Words, Mr. Lincoln (All Aboard Reading/Level 3 : Grades 2-3)
By Jean Fritz
"Four score and seven years ago..." ( President Abraham Lincoln) I'm this short book it talks a little about President Abraham Lincoln. He was president at a very hard time in U.S history. The North & the South were at war, but he still had time to not only try to win the war and put a end to slavery he also wrote letters to Americans, help the people, and give speeches. His son Tad (Thomas) loved his father and loved to pretend to be a soilder and play and wrestle with his dad. Near the small town of Gettysburg a huge battle took place and nearly 43,000 men died total from both sides. President A. Lincoln was invited to give a short speech in honor of all the men. 15-20,000 people came to here the speeches. One man, Mr. Everett, spoke for nearly 2 hours whilst The Presidents speech was about 2 minutes lomg! Everyone would remember the So we h for many many years to come. I'm the back of this book there is a copy of the speech and I can see why it was and still is a very popular speech. Thanks for reading -Ajg16's reviews
Annie (An Annie Book)

This book (and play) is AMAZING. I was in the play and it's my favorite musical ever. This is about a little girl named Annie who learns that if you live a bad life, you can power through it and make "tomorrow" come once and for all.
Torn (The Missing)
By Margaret Peterson Haddix
The fourth book in The Missing; Jonah and Katherine are sent to 1611 to fix (and save) the year 1600. Jonah is supposed to act like John Hudson, Henry Hudson’s son on his ship The Discovery. With a futuristic exact John Hudson costume being worn by Jonah, he is the perfect John Hudson and Katherine is invisible. With a planned mutiny of Henry Hudson onboard, Jonah and Katherine need to figure out how to save history. Henry Hudson surrenders to the mutineers and agrees to go on a shallop with a few other shipmates to find the Northwest Passage. After they narrowly escape an iceberg, they see the ship coming back for them from the south when it was headed North. Then they spot the Northwest Passage. Second is at the helm and changing history up. So, after Jonah is put in the stocks and they find out one of the men is Second, they go back in time to where they were in the shallop trying to make things right and not be forced by Second’s hand. Will history fall apart, or will they succeed in making things right? What I thought about it Margaret Peterson Haddix is a wonderful author. She writes books in a way that you can see what’s happening clearly with your imagination. I discovered her from Into The Gauntlet, the tenth 39 Clues book. Then I read Found and Sent and loved those so I said, “Why not continue the series?” So I did with Sabotaged and Torn. It took me a long time to read both of them and I was actually anxious to finish and get on with another book. Sabotaged in my opinion was pretty confusing in some parts; I liked it, but there are so many things happening, that at one point it just confuses you. I had similar feelings with Torn, but it was slow-paced and didn’t have enough action. I have started reading the next one and I hope it will be better. I was sort of disappointed that Haddix made me want to finish to read something else. I hope she redeems herself with some other good books in the series.
Sabotaged (The Missing, Book 3)
By Margaret Peterson Haddix
I really loved this book because I'm really interested in science fiction. Before I read book 1, Found, I thought I wouldn't like the series. But now after I read book 1, I started reading all of the other books. Now I waiting for book, I think 7 or 8 to come out and I'm really excited
