The Invention Of Hugo Cabret is an amazing and adventurous book. It is one of my favorite books ever, because it is a page turner and makes me want to read more. If I was the author, I would change that something happened to Hugo earlier than it happened in the book so there can be more action and adventures.  If I were a character in the book, I would’ve solved the problem by helping Hugo escape his problem earlier.  If I could describe the book in one juicy word, it would be adventurous because there is always an adventure going on.  The Invention Of Hugo Cabret is a great book for all of those reasons and many more! I would definitely recommend this book to anybody who is searching for a book to read!

Book is found in Miss Q’s Library

Stars of Summer is an amazing book. About a twelve year old girl named Gladys Gatsby who seceretly works as a resturant critict for the most famous newspaper (the New York Standard).  She will review many fun resturants.  Along the way it will get more and more interesting. This book was remarkable! I think it had very crazy parts it has very nerveracking momments.  If I were the author, I would change that Stars of Summer has no pictures! And I would change this because this makes the book more fun and you can see what is happening. If I were Gladys in this book, I would feel stressed because Gladys has a lot of things on her mind right now. If I could pick one juicy word to describe this book, I would pick inspiring because this book has a lot of people who inspire me to do my own thing. The best part is they are all kids!  Find out more about Gladys by first reading All Four Stars, then Stars of Summer, and lastly Stars So Sweet.

Spy Camp - Tomas

     Spy Camp is an amazing book because it contains action and gives you high hopes about summer camp! Spy Camp was one of my favorite books, because first of all, I enjoy the Spy School Series. Second, it is one of the best in the series! If I was Ben Ripley in Spy Camp, I would’ve escaped Spy Camp to go back home to my parents, because I wouldn’t want to be away from them for 2 to 4 months. If I was Ben, I would’ve guessed the place the bomb was hidden. If I could pick one word to describe this book, I would choose amazing because it has a lot of cool stuff, like thwarting the enemy by pulling a plug. I think Spy Camp is an amazing book and I recommend it to whoever is looking for a good read!

              MiNRS2 is the second book in the MiNRS series. After hiding underground in the first book, but the MiNRS have to do it AGAIN. But, it is still nail-biting, exciting! The book was awesome, and I like it better then the first one because they fight back more and they show a lot of courage and bravery. If I could change one part of the book, I would change all the parts that Darcy was sad, she was so young and didn’t deserve what happened. If I was in Chis’s shoes, I would’ve tried to fight back to Earth way earlier. One great word to describe this book would be action-packed because the book is filled with it! MiNRS2 is one of the best books ever! I’m excited what Kevin Sylvester is going to make next!

Diego's book review for Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix



Name of Reviewer: Diego  
Title of Book: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Author of Book: J.K. Rolling
# of pages: 870
# AR points:    44.0                 RL: 7.2
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is a great book for readers who like reading Harry Potter because it is the longest Harry Potter book so it can keep you busy for a while. I am going to tell you a quick summary now. (SPOILER ALERT!) Harry nearly gets a girlfriend but fails. Harry and Cho are still sad about Cedric dying. Ron and Hermoine constantly get into fights. Luckily, there are also happy things like when George and Fred do their amazing escape and when Harry lets Ron join the quidditch team as a keeper. Ginny also joins. Sadly, the dreadful Professor Umbridge confiscates Harry’s broom halfway through the quidditch season. Read the book to find out more! I loved the book because it is very exciting and action packed. I would change when Harry breaks up with Cho if I was the author because I want to know what would happen if they became very close. If I was Harry, the way I would solve the problem of breaking up is by telling Cho that he really didn’t want to go to Hermione and ask if she could come to make it better. If I could pick one juicy word to describe the book, I would chose flirtation because the book is like a love story.I highly recommend to read Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix because it will brighten your day if you are having a rough time.

If you are into fantasy The Dragon Of Fortune is the perfect book for you.there I liked this book because it felt I  you were in a land of fantasy and the illustrations were  great.The part of the book that I would change was the weasels big entrance and make it bigger and funnier because weasels like drama .If I were a character in the book, I would be Wolfy I would have solved a problem by Being more like a witch so I would not get caught and I could solve the problem easier. If I could pick one juicy word for the book it would be outstanding because it was and the pictures were so good. I would rate this book in one of my favorites.I recommend The Dragon Of Fortune to people that love mystery and fairy tail.

Property of the Rebel Librarian is one of my favorite books because it has a lot of surprises.  If I had to change a part of the book I will change the part when June’s parents don’t let her go to have dinner with Graham.  Honestly, if I were June in the book I would solve the problem by escaping when her parents told her to go to the school to say sorry. If I had to pick a juicy word to describe the book, I would pick mystery because it has a bunch of mysteriesI really liked Property of the Rebel Librarian and I hope you do too❣❣📚

   Read The Underdogs if you want to be shocked or amazed about a boy that plays football and loves his team. I liked this book because I like playing tackle football. If I was the author, I would change the part where Will gets $10,000, because it is unrealistic. If I was a character in the book, I would have solved that problem by selling all my stuff I do not use, if I could pick one juicy word to describe the book it would be surprising, because you never know what will happen. If I liked The Underdogs I know you will like to read it too.

     Neil Flambé and the Marco Polo Murders is one of the best books I have ever read. It includes humor, mysteries, and more! I loved the book because it has great cliff-hangers and it is really funny. I would have changed the part where he went to check out the crime scenes, because if he looked around more, he would have found out some important clues. If I was Neil Flambé, I would’ve interviewed the people that I was suspicious about. If I could pick one juice word to describe the book, I would choose exciting because the book is filled with cliff hangers and excitement! I loved the book Neil Flambé and the Marco Polo Murders; I hope more people read it!

Lucas’s Riding Freedom Blog Book Review        11/13/18

Illustrator of Book: Brian Selznick
# of pages: 138
# AR points: 3                                    RL: 4.5
Book is found in Miss Q’s Library.
Riding Freedom is a thrilling, action book about a girl that ran from the orphanage and, that broke the unfair law that woman can’t vote and was the first woman to vote. 

I liked this book because you never know what’s going to happen next.  
I would change the part that Hayward gets adopted because it is sad for the readers and I think Charlotte has a lot of problems already.
If I had to solve Charlotte problem of finding a place to sleep when she slept in the barn, I would go sleep in the library.
I would chose the word Unpredictable. Because you never know what will happen.
      You should read Riding Freedom if you want to be shocked and amazed.

            The book Riding Freedom is one of the best books I have read with one of the bravest characters I have ever read about. I liked the book so much because I could not put it down. If I could change a part of the book, it would be the part where Freedom died because it was very sad. If I were a character in the book I would have solved the problem by having Charlotte tell William to stop picking on her. If I could pick one good word to describe the book, it would be astonishing because it really describes the book. I would really recommend the book Riding Freedom to you because it is one of the best books.

Riding Freedom is about a girl named Charlotte who escapes an orphanage.  I liked the book because I like horses.  If I were the author I would change Charlotte getting kicked in the eye because it is sad moment in the story.  If I were Charlotte I would solve the problem of getting blind in 1 eye by practicing driving a stagecoach.  One juicy word about to describe Riding Freedom is awesome because the book is filled with awesome events.  I recomend Riding Freedom because it is a great book.

# of pages:# # 304
# AR points: 8.0                                 RL: 4.0




Emily Windsnap Sirens Secret is a magical and extraordinary book about merdmaids. I love it so much and I think that everyone should read it because it is very fascinating and you will always wonder what will happen next.  If I had the choice to change a part of the book, I would not change anything because the book is already so good.  If I was a character in the book, I would solve a problem by telling Neptune, in the first place, that there are lost sirens trapped in a waterfall.  If I would pick ONE JUICY WORD to describe the book, I would pick ADVENTUROUS because the book has so much adventure in it.  I totally think that everyone should read Emily Windsnap Sirens Secret and the rest of the books from the series because they are amazing.

The Wild Robot Escapes is an amazing book about hope, family, sadness, joy, adventure,           trust, and friendship.  I loved this book because the characters have so many emotions, and out of all of the books that I have read, this one is the best. I would change nothing about the book because it is perfect just the way it is.  If I were a character in the book, I would have solved the problem the exact same way.   One word I would pick to describe the book is breath-taking because if you have read the book you would know why.  You should really read The Wild Robot Escapes because of all the adventure and mystery in it.

# of pages: 324
# AR points: 10.0                                            RL: 4.8
          Gillian Seagret is certain that her father’s theories about Dr. Aloysius Underberg are true- and she’s determined to keep her father’s information safe and find Omega City. I loved this book because every page keeps you hanging from suspense. If I were the author, I wouldn’t change any part of Omega City because it is amazingly detailed and draws you in and no change could make it any better. If I were a character in this book, I wouldn’t have solved the problem the same way because it kept the reader on the edge of their seat with daring twists and clever turns. If I could pick one juicy word to describe this book it would be fantastic because Omega City keeps you reading with your hands on autopilot turning the pages. This book is for all thrill seekers and readers out there; if you enjoyed this book, read its sequel, The Forbidden Fortress!

The book Ellie’s Story is a heart-warming extraordinary book that I totally think you should read.  I love the book Ellie’s Story so much because it is amazing, and you are always wondering what will happen next.  If I was the author of the book Ellie’s Story, I would not change anything from the book because its already amazing and if you change something it would just ruin the book.  If I was a character in the book, I would have solved a problem by calling for back- up right away and waiting until they got there.  If I were to pick one JUICY WORD to describe the book, it would be heart-warming because the book makes the reader feel good.  If you like dogs and happy endings, I recommend the book Ellie’s Story to you.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid the Getaway is a hilarious and amazing book that I could not STOP reading and it was about a boy named Greg and his family and their going to Isla de Corales liked the book because it was hilarious and it explained everything so well.  If I was the author, I would change the part were Rodrick gets sun burned because I think that was just an add on part.  If I was a character in the book, I would have fixed the problems just like the Heffley family did.  If I had to pick one word to describe the book, I would pick remarkable because overall the book has everything a good book needs.  I would recommend Diary of a Wimpy Kid the Getaway if you like hilarious, fun, and spectacular books.

            Do you like adventure stories?  If you do, you will absolutely love  Abby in Wonderland.   I adored this book because if you read one chapter, you will be anxious to read the next chapter.  I really wouldn’t change anything in the book; it was planned out wonderfully about the Fake Rabbit and the Queen of Hearts.  If I was a character in the book I would not have eaten the Queen of Heart’s tarts because I would get in terrible trouble.  If I had to describe this book, I would say it was marvelous because it was intimidating and you would always want to read it.  Everyone in the world needs to read Abby in Wonderland.

Do you love poems?  If you do you will love Love That Dog because it is an extraordinarily sad and happy book at the same time!   Love That Dog is a beautiful free verse poem.  I loved Love That Dog, because it reminds me of my dog, called Molly Rose,  and because it has short lines and it’s easy to read!  I would change the extremely sad part; it’s so sad I cried.  I would also make the poet of Jack’s favorite poem a bit more famous.   Love That Dog is astonishing, sensational, outstanding and brilliant.  If you love poetry read Love That Dog.
