All Four Stars By: Antonella


Blog Book Review
Name of Reviewer: Antonella
Title of Book: All Four Stars
Author of Book: Tara Dairman
# of pages: 273
# AR points:    9.0                               RL: 6.0
Book is found in Miss Q’s Librairy
All Four Stars is a book  about baking, action, and disasters in the kitchen. I absolutely loved this book because it is all about taking risks and it is also about baking which I love. If I was the author, I would change how Sandy doesn’t go to Gladys’s school because then Gladys would have one friend. I would also like to change how the book doesn't have any illustrations. If I was Gladys, I would fix the problem of not being able to go to Classy Cakes by telling her dad that in school there was a project to write a review for Classy Cakes. If I could pick ONE JUICY WORD to describe All Four Stars,it would be stealthy because everything Gladys did was a secret so she had to be stealthy to do it. This book is definitely one of the best books I have read because there is always something happening. If you are a person that loves baking, action, and excitement all-in-one, then All Four Stars is the book for you.

Title of Book: Cryptid Hunters
Author of Book: Roland Smith
# of pages:  #338
# AR points: 11                                    RL: 4.5
Book is found in Mrs. Q’s library.
https://www.amazon.com/Cryptid-Hunters-Roland-Smith/dp/0786851627/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1544022629&sr=8-1&keywords=cryptid+hunters
Cryptid Hunters  has a lot to do with mysteries so, if you like mysteries, than I bet you a billion bucks you’ll love this book.  This book also has a lot to do with teamwork and dinosaurs.  I like mysteries, haunted and, spooky things.  I would change the part where it is just boring old Noah Blackwood jumps out of a helicopter and instead more action.  I would have solved the problem with Noah Blackwood and think of ways to make him forget about Wolfe  so he does not disturb Wolfe. One juicy word that can easily describe this whole book is  MYSTERIOUS.  This book is amazing I recommend it for you.  But remember if you like Mystories and prehistoric animals remember this might just be a tiny bit much of it in this book.

Title of Book: Riding Freedom

Author of Book: Pam Munoz Ryan 

Illustrator of Book: Brian Selznick

# of pages: 138

Book is found in Miss Q’s Library



If you like drama,  action  and horses then Riding Freedom is your type of book.  I
liked this book because it explained how wrong things should be right. If I were the author, I would change when Vern dies and make him visit Charlotte with Hayward. If I were Charlotte, I would solve the problem by talking when Miss Boyle hides me in the potato bin so the parents that want girls can find me. If I could pick one juicy word to describe the book, it would be fantastic because each part has a problem but gets fixed in a wonderful way. Finally, if what I have said is boring  then all I have to say about  Riding Freedom  is it mite change your life.

Riding Freedom is an excellent book! Everyone that loves horses is in for a treat. Even if you don’t like horses, this book will still be a perfect pick for you guys. The story is about a girl that is full of exciting adventure. I loved the book Riding Freedom because the book is full of detail and juicy adjectives. My favorite part of the book was when Charlotte ran away from the orphanage because her friend got adopted and she was not allowed to work with the horses. One juicy word I would pick to describe the book is emotional because the story is kind of sad. One part of the book I would change, if I was the author, is that Charlotte didn’t get kicked in the left eye by a horse because I wonder what else Charlotte would have been nicknamed. I recommend you read Riding Freedom because you can learn about a bunch of words that are not as simple as roof.

# of pages: 118

Book is found in Miss Q’s Library
In I Survived the American Revolution, Nate’s father was a ship captain and  died 2 years ago in a storm. Nate now lives with his Uncle Storch.  I liked the book a lot because I like action books. They make me want  to find out more and more about the story. I would not change any part of the book, because it is the best book I have ever read.   I would solve the problem of  Samuel getting shot by the Hessians  and I would rush  him to the fort and help  him out.  If I were to pick one juicy word, I would pick  clever  because Samuel is very clever.  I recommend I Survived the American Revolution if you love action and excitement.

Title of Book: Love That Dog

Author of Book: SHARON CREECH

# of pages: 86

# AR points: 1.0                                               RL:4.5



The book Love That Dog is about a boy,  his dog and poetry.  Jack likes  the short  poems  the best, and so do I. Jack loves his dog,  I don’t like the sad part of  the story. The dog is cute. I liked the book a lot because this was my first poetry book. Sometimes the book can  be heart breaking. I would not change any part of the book because it is an extraordinary book. I think anyone who reads this book will enjoy it.  I would choose  clever as the word to describe this book because it teaches you to like poems. Read this book, you will love it.

Loli’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Book Review

           Loli’s Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Book Review
Name of Reviewer: Loli
Title of Book: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Author of Book: J.K. Rowling
# of pages: 341
# AR points: 14                                               RL: 6.7
Book is found in Miss Q’s Library


Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the second book of the Harry Potter series, involves magic and mystery in the best way. The valiant Harry Potter is the main character, along with his friends Ronald (Ron) Weasley and Hermione Granger. Danger lurks around Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Harry has to act because if he doesn’t, things could get really serious and dangerous. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was very enjoyable and I simply adored it. The fact that I love mystery stories really helped me enjoy the book, but I think anyone would like it. I think Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets can’t be changed in anyway, because if somebody changed it, the mystery could be taken away. If I was a character from the book and had to solve the problem that children were turning in to stone, I would have tried to pay attention, very careful attention, to the things around me. I would do research and ask people questions to help me find out the answer. A little similar to what Harry Potter did. If I had to pick one word to describe Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, it would be thriller because the book is very mysterious and exciting all at the same time. Overall, I really enjoyed reading the incredible Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and really recommend it to ages eight up.

The Eighth Day by Daniela

Name of Reviewer: Daniela
Title of Book: The Eighth Day
Author of Book: Dianne K. Salerni
Illustrator of Book: David McClellan
# of pages: 336
# AR points:    10.0                             RL: 5.2
The Eighth Day is found in Miss Q‘s Library.


              The Eighth Day is an amazing book full of wondrous adventures and excitement, too. I really did enjoy reading this book because it’s filled with all the adventures I love. It has some scary adventures, mysteries and lots of problems that you want to find out. The author Dianne K. Salerni makes you want to live in that book and never put it down. If I would have to change something, I would change that none of the bad guys would live in The Eighth Day because they don’t deserve to live in The Eighth Day since they want to zap all the other seven days out of existence! If I were Jax Aubrey, I would solve the problem by using powers to gather up other powers and use it quickly on the bad guys. One juicy word to describe The Eighth Day is adventurous because almost during the whole book your’e in one place, then another, and your’e everywhere. Read The Eighth Day, and it will change your life forever!
