Riding Freedom book review by Max V

Max’s Riding Freedom Blog Book Review
Name of Reviewer:Max V
Title of Book: Riding Freedom
Author of Book: Pam Munoz Ryan
Illustrator of Book: Bryan Selznick
# of pages:  138
# AR points: 3                        RL:3.5





Riding Freedom is a book about a girl named Charlotte that escapes from an  orphanage and creates a new life in Manchester and out west.  She diguises herself as a boy because she wants to break the mold and do things that women have never done before.  I liked the book  because it had cliff hangers and very suprising moments.  I would change the chapter where Freedm dies and make it a happier chapter.  If I was a charachter in the book I would have solved the problem where Freedom dies  and I would have found a new horse that I love and adore and race that one.  The juicy word  that I choose about the book is astonishing because I was surprised that Freedom died so early in the book.  I would recommend the book Riding Freeedom because it has a lot of cliff hangers and if you like cliff hangers and historical fiction than this is the book for you.

Nate's Book blog Review

Name of Reviewer: Nate

Title of Book: Prisoner B-3087

Author of Book: Alan Gratz

# of pages: 260

# AR points: 7.0                                          RL: 4.9


Prisoner B-3087 is about a kid who is trying to work hard to get out of all the death camps in Germany and Poland because the Nazis have invaded.  This book is marvelous and I liked it because Yanek (the kid) survives all the death camps he has lived in.  I would not change anything about the book and even if I wanted to I can’t because the book is based on a true story.  If I was Yanek, I would solve the problem by running away into the city where the Nazis wouldn’t know he was a Jew.  If I could pick one juicy word to describe the the book, it would be BOGGLE because it is hard to imagine that all these horrible things could happen to a kid.  If you like war books, I would recommend this book to you because Prisoner B-3087 is all about war.
