Alejandra's book review for Riding Freedom

Name of Reviewer: Alejandra De Lorenzi
Title of Book: Riding Freedom
Author of Book: Pam Muñoz Rian
Illustrator of Book: Brian Selznick
# of pages: 138

      Do you like adventurous and inspiring stories? Well, you are in luck because the book I am reviewing is Riding Freedom by Pam Munoz Rian and illustrated by Brian Selznick! This book took place in the mid-1800´s.      I loved this book because it was very interesting and I could not get out of it. The book transported me to a different world. It was mindblowing.      I don’t think I would change any part of the book because Pam Muñoz Rian had such juicy details and the book was amazing just the way it was.      If I were a character in the book, I think I would have solved the problem by telling Hayward’s parents that I was his best friend and if I could live with them and then I would have had Hayward beg his parents too.       If I could pick one juicy word to describe Riding Freedom it would be spectacular because the book is just plain wonderful!      I would really recommend anybody to read the book Riding Freedom, even you and your pet iguana! It is just amzing and you and your pet iguana have to read it. Once you are done reading it, you will want to read it 10,000 times again. That is my book review for the spectacular and amazing Riding Freedom! Enjoy! 💗😊🐴

The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle


Name of Reviewer: Sindhu
Title of Book: The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle
Author of Book: Janet Fox
# of pages: 388
# AR points: 12.0                                RL: 5.0
            Katherine Bateson, a young girl of 12, doesn’t believe in magic. During the Blitz, her great aunt gives her a chatelaine she claims is magical and Kat is sent to Rookskill Castle, a ‘safe place where there are no spies’. Kat starts doubting that magic isn’t real when she arrives, with the seemingly changing halls and the dissappearance of children, one by one. I loved this The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle because it is filled with puzzles, and each page is filled with details more vivid than a movie.  If I were the author, I would not change any part of this book because if I did, the book would not be half as good as it is now. If I were Kat, I would have solved the problem differently, but I would not have been able to save the kids because Kat is much cleverer then I am. If I were to pick one juicy word to describe this book, it would be extraordinary because The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle stands out from all the other books, with magic and Blitz spies. The Charmed Children of Rookskill Castle is a book for anyone of all ages.

Andrew's Book Reveiw On Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire

Name of Reviewer: Andrew 
Title of Book: Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire
Author of Book: J.K Rowling

# AR points: 32 points                          RL: 6.8

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is an adventurous story with magic, owls , and an elf.
I liked the book because I love sports and there is a sport in the wizard world called  Quidditch.  It  is a quick strategy sport with 4 balls and 7 people on each team. I would change the part of the book that Cedric died because Voldemort would kill him and I would like to keep him alive. The way I would change the problem in the strategy book is Harry would defeat Voldemort in the final challenge(the maze). I would describe  the book as adventurous because Harry Potter has to defeat Voldemort and he has to fight dragons, mermaids, and giant evil bushes to get to Voldemort. So, read the  legendary Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire read the rest of the series look at the rest of my book reviews  for more information about other Harry Potter books.



Carlos' Pie book review

Name of Reviewer: Carlos Guajardo
Title of Book: Pie
Author of Book: Sarah Weeks
# of pages: 180
# AR points: 5

The book Pie is the most intriguing book I have ever read. I loved this book because with every page you turn you find a new mystery. It is about an awesome aunt that has won 14 Blueberries, an award for making delicious pies, that has just died and left her recipe to her cat, Lardo. She also left her cat Lardo to her niece Alice. Will people try to steal Lardo and try to get the recipe to win a Blueberry and become rich? If I were the author, I would change the part when Lardo got put to sleep by sleeping powder. I would change it to Lardo getting tranquilized and falling asleep. If I were Alice, I would have solved the problem by going to the police first and not trying to solve who wanted my Aunt Polly’s pie recipe by myself. If I would to describe this book with a juicy word, it would be breathtaking because Pie is full of breathtaking recipes and mysteries. If you read Pie, you will change the way you think of pies forever and ever!!!
