1 | The X’ed-Out X-Ray is a really good book. The maincharacters are Josh, Dink and Ruth Rose. The story is about three kids who go to a concert where somethingis stolen from someone. The three kids are on the case to solve the mystery. Read more to find out what happens.The X-ed-Out X-Ray is an interesting book. I liked thisstory because it is fun and exciting. They find stolen objects and clues along the way to solve the mystery. The other reason I like it is because I feel like I am just like these characters. I think I am most like Ruth Rose because she is smart and likes to think about things before she says them. I also like solving puzzles and doing treasure hunts. The three kids are tough, they do not give up until they solved the crime.I recommend this book because it is interesting to read and it is a bit scary too. Have fun reading and if you like this one there are a lot more in this series. |
2 | My book A to z Mysteries the unwilling umpire is a good book to read. In the beginning, a baseball game was going on to raise money for green lawn school and someone stole the coach’s baseballs. In the middle of the book, they search for clues and find out who stole the baseballs.I think the book is good because I like mysteries. As the title says, this book is a mystery. I kept reading to figure out what would happen. I also like that this book is part of a series so I can keep reading books that are like this one. In this book of the series, I like that the mystery was about baseball. |
3 | Have you ever been In the forest with your friends?Then this is the book for you: Sleepy Hollow Sleep over. First Dink Josh and Ruth Rose drive to their dad’s cabin in the woods. When they are getting ready to go to a carnival in the woods they see something strange in the woods-A horse just standing there. They ignored it and went to the carnival.They go on hayride, meet new friends,and play games. Strange things things start to happened to them after the carnival. They are kidnapped! Does it have to do with the strange horse? Read to find out how they escape and what is going on with that strange horse. My favorite part was when they found the horse because I thought they were going to go on an adventure to see what happened next and if they found out what it was.My favorite character is Dink because he was always looking for adventure. I like adventure.I would recommend this book to ages 6 - 10 because it is not hard to read and it will make you want to read more. I give the Sleepy Hollow Sleepover five stars for making me want to read the book. |
4 | Well Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are having one in the town of the Legendary Headless Horseman. And there having a blast until someone burns down the tractor so they can”t get home. But before the tractors burned down Dink saw some people talking near the tractor and thinks they burned down the tractor. Will they find the person or will he keep on stealing stuff?I can connect to “Sleepy Hollow Sleepover” because I have a lot of sleepovers. My favorite characters are Josh and Ruth Rose. I like how Josh makes up these funny jokes. My favorite part of this book is the time when they see the headless horsemen and they want to catch but Josh keeps freaking out. I think if I saw the headless horseman I would freak out too. If I had to give this book a 1-5 I would give this book a 5 no matter what.I would recommend this book to anyone who is second to fourth grade boys and girls. It was also surprising. But it does not mean that they would solve the mystery every time. |
5 | If you like mysteries and people being sneaky then A to Z Mysteries is the series for you. In the book, The Mayflower Treasure Hunt, Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose, the main characters, went to a boat called the Mayflower to explore. They found out someone stole something from the Mayflower a long long time ago.They also went to the place where the Mayflower landed to see if it was a place on a map. Then they found the place on the map so they dug and dug and dug and they found the treasure. But then someone tried to steal the treasure………... dun dun dun, but Ruth Rose gave her a fake. I rate this book 4 stars because it was a good book but not a great book.I liked this A to Z Mysteries book, The Mayflower Treasure Hunt because it had a bit of funny jokes and a bit of traveling adventure and a bit of creepy scariness. My favorite part of the book was when they got caught by the grandma, it was very funny. I did not like the mom because she left her kids, Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose alone and they might of gotten very hurt. In addition the book made me wonder…….. hmmm what happened to Lawrence Mudgett because they did not tell us.I recommend this book for ages 7 to 10 because it was kind of long and I do not think a 6 year old can really read it. |
6 | Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose are on their fun and exciting mystery! Dink has Josh and Ruth Rose to help him with his mystery. Josh likes to eat. Ruth Rose dresses all in one color including her headband. The fifth envelope has something fishy with it. It’s empty but it has something behind the stamps. Read to find out what happens. I think Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose are curious, excited, happy, and sometimes playful. They are best friends and they want to help each other whatever comes their way.I like this book because Ron Roy has a series called A to Z Mysteries. The series always has a new crime to solve. This book connects to my life because I love solving mysteries. And I have mysteries to solve at my house, a lot of them. Ron Roy is a great writer. I bet he knows a lot about mysteries because his books are very suspenseful. Once you get into the story the crime unfolds but you don’t know who did it until the very end. My favorite part was when they get to drag the criminals off to jail. I can’t tell you who it is because that is telling too much.I would recommend this book for ages 5-18 because they might like mysteries too. And they might want to learn more about solving a crime. |
7 | The main characters in this mystery series are Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose. They always try to solve something. There is usually a small mystery before the big mystery. There is also a thief most of the time. I love mysteries and that is why I like this series. You never know in this story what is going to happen next.If you read this book I wonder who your favorite character will be? In this particular book someone keeps watching the main characters. I don’t like that because I don’t like it if someone is watching me all of the time. The illustrations in this book are very good because they pop out. They give you an idea of what Dink, Ruth Rose and Josh look like. I feel relaxed when I read them because they are not too long and not too difficult, they are just right. I recommend this series to people who love mysteries. It is good for ages 5 to 15, depending on their reading level. |
8 | Well, this would be a great book for you. Dink and his two friends, Josh and Ruth Rose were outside with Ruth Rose’s brother, Nate. They were playing volleyball, but suddenly, they find five empty envelopes!!! A big girl named Doris Duncan says the letters are hers, and she demands her letters. You will need to read the book to figure out the rest!In my opinion was a terrific book because it was interesting. It was interesting because of the part where they discus invisible ink. My favorite part was when Ruth Rose was talking in a tough guy voice because I visualized it and it made me laugh.Kids should read this book because it is not too hard and not too short. Kids 7-10 will enjoy this book. It is pretty funny. If you like funny mystery books this is a great book for you !! |
9 | If so then The Empty Envelope by Ron Roy is definitely for you! It is about three friends who live in a town in Connecticut called Green Lawn. Their names are Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose. 5 days in a row, Dink gets 5 blue envelopes, but they all have CO on them for Colorado, not CT for Connecticut. So the kids get on the phone with the person they were really for, Doris Duncan. She sounded angry and she really wanted the blue envelopes back and then she comes for them, but then they were gone. Eventually,the kids find out that under the three regular stamps on the fifth envelope, there was an upside down stamp worth $50,000 belonging to senior citizen, Clementine Painter. She found it in the vacuum cleaner belonging to her mother. You will just have to read the book to see who is responsible for the suspicious theft.The Empty Envelope is a great book because it is full of mysteries and suspense and they are always changing their minds about the mysteries. In the middle of these A - Z Mystery books, I always feel like I want to read on because I want to see what happens next. I like how the author uses exclamation a lot so I know how exactly what they would sound like in real life. For example, when Ruth Rose screams when she finds out about the stamp her words are bolded with a lot of exclamation points at the end. Also, I really like the pencil illustrations. They always look exactly like it says it looks in the text.I rate this book 7 out of 10 because the kids are always changing their minds and trying new things to solve mysteries. I recommend this book to first to fifth graders who love mysteries and very suspenseful writing. If you are someone like this, you should definitely check out this book and others in the series. |
10 | The Falcon’s Feathers was an awesome book. Josh found a nest of peregrine falcons one day. But one day Josh wanted to show Dink and Ruth the nest but it was empty! Only feathers were left in the nest. Later, they found a falcon and its wing feathers were trimmed. They called the falcon, Flash. The three friends figured out who stole the falcons and why. If you want to know how they solved the mystery go and read the book! I think The Falcon’s Feathers was a great book. I really liked it. First, Dink thought Grace Lockwood wasn’t the Falcon stealer but later on he thinks Grace was the stealer. Second, this book is in a series called, A to Z Mysteries. It is different because each book has a different mystery but the same main characters. Third, there was a strong red herring. I was fooled by the red herring. The Falcon’s Feathers was super great! I recommend The Falcon’s Feathers because it’s exciting. It solves all the mysteries in the end. The book has falcons, a lot of Falcons. It has a lot of good illustrations. Go read this book as soon as possible. |

22 | If you like mysteries then this is definitely the book for you. It involves a lot of mysterious adventures and fun. In A - Z Mysteries, The Bald Bandit, Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose(the main characters) are trying to track down a kid who is in high school that video taped a robber who robbed Green Lawn Savings Bank. They look for him first at the high school but too many kids came out at once. They couldn't talk to two people at once and keep an eye out at the same time. In addition, Ruth Rose reminded the boys that, that night was Halloween and they could ask the neighborhood people if they knew the kid as they were trick or treating. I think the theme of this story is how they were trying to do a good deed and trying to solve the mystery. You will have to read the book to find out if they solve the mystery or will the crook run loose? This book was a mirror image to me because I like to solve mysteries. I love this book because Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are very funny, clever and smart like they usually are in most of their books. I think in the book it was funny when Dink said “If you see a skinny redhead stop him and yell” because if they yelled the kid would have thought they were crazy and he would run away. I also thought it was funny when Josh was being sarcastic and he said to Dink “You just look like a skinny third grader wearing false teeth” Lastly, I thought it was unique when the barber was like “All six of ‘em nice kids and every last one is a red head” when he was talking about Lucky’s family. I recommend this book to children 7 to 13 years of age to read this book because Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are very nice and smart characters. If you like mysteries then this is definitely the book for you. |

I found Mr. and Mrs. Jeffers interesting. They were very nice to everyone throughout the book. Also, every single word that came out of their mouth was said with a lot of expression. Also, Mr. and Mrs. Jeffers are mysterious, too. I liked the part when Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose went to the diner and found out who was haunting the hotel because the people who haunted the hotel were at the diner where the three kids were going. This book belongs to a series called A to Z mysteries. It is a very good series. I think you should read it!

When the Shangri-La Hotel gets haunted the kids have to find clues to solve the mystery of who is the ghost! That is all I can tell you! Read the book to find out if they solved the mystery of the haunted hotel!I liked the character named Ruth Rose the best. I liked her because she has a good personality and I like that she wears only one color. For example, she wore only blue, a blue shirt, blue shoes, blue pants and a blue head band. My second opinion is one of the characters Ruth Rose reminds me of my friend Samira because she wears cat ears every day and Ruth Rose wears one color every day and it makes a nice touch. This book is similar to a book called The Trouble with Chickens because it has a mystery just like this one. I think kids should read this book because it has good illustrations and has a cool ghost mystery. The second reason is, kids the ages 7-10 should read this because it’s easy and fun to read.

You’ll have to read the book to fund out what’s really in the dog food boxes and try to solve the case of The Invisible Island.This book is like other books by Ron Roy because he never changes the characters in the series and always puts a lot of clues in to solve the mystery. As I read the book I was wondering who put Happy Heart dog food boxes on an island and who put fake poison ivy on the safe? It made me want to read on to find out. I found Mr. Pinkowski interesting because he seemed like the crook but really wasn’t. The clues were he had big feet and the foot prints Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose found were big. He also bought ivy cream and there was poison ivy on the island. I think this book would be enjoyed by 2nd – 5th graders because this author makes you wonder a lot about the book. Also, the ending was unpredictable and you won’t want to stop reading! |
27 | Well Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose do. In the beginning of this book, they are on the lookout for the counterfeiters that put Happy Heart dog food on Squaw Island. Do you want to know what's really in the boxes? You'll have to read the book to find out who the counterfeiters are and what's in the Happy Heart dog food boxes. Can you help them solve the mystery?I loved reading The Invisible Island because I wanted to know how all the clues would go together to explain the mysterious things happening on the island. My favorite part of the book is when Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose find fake money on Squaw Island. This is my favorite part because it made me want to read more and find out who left the footprints and whose money it was. When I read The Invisible Island it had a lot of description and it made me feel like I was actually in the book. For example, when I read that Mr. Pinkowski was tall, sandy haired, and sported a droopy mustache, it made me feel like I was in the book looking at Mr. Pinkowski.I recommend this book to all kids that are in grades 3-5. As I read this book I realized that I kept thinking it was one person. But by the end I thought it was a different person. This ending is unexpected! So go read the book! |
28 | Have you ever wondered what it is like to be in charge of figuring out a huge problem? Well than you should read this book, The Invisible Island from the A to Z Mysteries. Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose go for a picnic on the huge Squaw Island but when they get there it is so foggy. While they search the foggy Squaw Island they find lots of money and poison ivy. They hang up flyers to see if anyone lost any money and also ask their neighbor if he planted any poison ivy. Next they report to the police then eventually the kids go back to Squaw Island to see if they can find anymore money but then they realize the poison ivy is fake.They also find a crumpled receipt that says their neighbors name and says he bought green pipe cleaners for the stem of the of the fake poison ivy. Finally, they show the police. If you want to find out what happens to the guy who made the fake poison ivy, well then you will just have to read the book to find that out.I loved The Invisible Island by Ron Roy because the kids are so brave and adventurous and they never gave up when facing difficult times. I also liked how the illustrations really matched the words. For example, when it said they were searching the island there was a picture of them looking behind rocks. I also liked how this book has letters instead of book numbers for example, this book is book I instead of 9. I can make a great connection of how they search the island and found something cool and once when I went to the beach I found something cool as well.I give this book a 7 out of 10 because they are so adventurous and did not give up when facing difficult times. I think if you are a kid that is adventurous and persistent then this is definitely the book for you! |
29 | Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose in The Jaguar's Jewel have to figure out who stole the jaguar's jewel and prove that Dink's uncle is innocent.I was surprised by the ending. They found the jewel in a place I did not expect. I thought Dr. Pitts took it and ran away, but I was wrong. I liked the book because you don't figure out the answer until the end. It keeps you guessing through the whole book! This book is like other books by Ron Roy because a lot of the characters are the same and his books are mysteries.I recommend this book to people in 3rd and 4th grade because it would be easy for 5th graders and hard for 2nd graders. You have to wait until the very end to find out who did it and it will be the most unpredictable ending. |
30 | Well, if you do The Jaguar's Jewel is the perfect book for you. Through the extraordinary pages of this book you will find clues, suspects, red herrings, and many more things.

Will Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose be able to prove that Dink's uncle didn't do it? You'll have to read the book to find out. My favorite part of the book, The Jaguar's Jewel, is when Ruth Rose find the jewel in the fish tank. This is my favorite part because her fortune cookie said she will find treasures and it came true. I also liked this part because it was really unexpected to happen. I think the character, Dr. Pitts, is interesting. I think Dr. Pits is interesting because he was suspicious throughout the whole book. He was always sneaking around and was near the jewel a lot. Throughout the whole book, I felt interested, curious, and suspicious. I had to really think hard and watch out for traps to figure out they mystery. I recommend this book to 2nd – 4th graders because every clue, suspect and red herring is exciting and interesting. This book will take you on and adventure, so read it now! |

This book reminds me of when my sister Monica lost a candy she really liked and we looked everywhere but we could not find the candy. My favorite part was when Josh found a secret base. This book is really thrilling because there are so many suspects and you don’t know who did it.I recommend this book because if you like a good mystery book this is the one for you. Something that I liked about this book is how the author put so many suspects. I recommend this book to second to fourth graders. |
32 | Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose go to visit Dink’s grandpa in New York. Dink’s grandpa owns a museum, so they all go to the museum. They go into Dink’s grandpa’s office. There they see a jaguar with a jewel in it’s paw. All of a sudden the lights go off. When the lights turn back on the jewel in the jaguar’s paw is missing. Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose think the jewel is still somewhere in the museum. They start to look for the jewel. Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are looking everywhere for it. I think this book is scary because Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose are in the same place that robbers are in. My favorite part is when they find the jewel in the fish tank because that’s a weird place for it to be. I liked the book because it was so interesting and mysterious.I recommend this book to kids in grades second to sixth. It is a pretty easy read and it is very interesting. I did not want to put this book down. If you get this book and start reading it you are not going to want to put it down either. |
33 | Then A to Z Mysteries: The Jaguar’s Jewel is the book for you! It is about three kids named Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose who are detectives trying to figure out who switched Dink’s uncle’s jaguar’s jewel with a fake one. The three kids thought of some suspects and went to find clues who might have done it. Read this book to find out who did the crime! Mystery books are fun to read because they have detectives and clues and suspects. It is fun trying to figure out the mystery while reading. My favorite part was when the kids Dink, Josh and Ruth Roes find out who the thief is. That was my favorite part because if they did not know who the thief was the jewel would be switched forever. This book is part of the A to Z mysteries series. It is similar because all the books have all same detectives. The book is different because it is about a jewel that has been switched with a fake one! I think other kid’s should read this book because it is a mystery book and if kids like mysteries this book is the book for you. The type of reader that would like this book is a 2nd through 4th grader. I think the reader would enjoy the part in the book when the kids Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose find out who the thief is! |
34 | If you like mysterious mysteries and humorous scenes than A to Z Mysteries, The Jaguar's Jewel is the book for you! The main characters are Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose. They all figure out they are going to New York City to meet Dink’s Uncle Warren. They go to Warren’s office. He works in a museum. He shows Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose his example of a golden jaguar with a jewel! The kids figure out the museum is a secret museum with trap doors! Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose find a burglar in the building! The kids can't find out who the thief is. Read the book to find out!I think this book is funny when Dink gets pushed down the slope because he was out of control. My favorite part is when there is a gem in the fish tank because it was so buried people would not even see it in there. It reminded me of the time when I lost my shoes and they were right under my bed! Funny things makes this book really good. I recommend this book to ages 5 - 7 for the amount of creativity the characters make. |
35 | If Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are solving mysteries, they can find clues right around the corner! They can even find clues were nobody can even think about. Even if they need to look right in the open. In the beginning of the story, two robbers in England steal the Queen of England's jewels. If somebody finds the jewels, they will get 10,000 pounds! Then Ruth Rose comes up with a very good idea. They can find the queens jewels!! !Later, at a very famous wax museum, the kid’s tour guide is someone named Mandy. They noticed that Mandy had some very spicy perfume. Later, they go to a palace in London. That is were the crime took place. It was also were the queen was staying. At the palace, with lots of green, wet bushes, they find some very spicy gum! They think it could be Mandy’s! Maybe, that $15,000 could be theirs. Could Mandy be one of the robbers? They might be right. But if they want the $15,000, they need a lot of proof. So the next time they come to the wax museum, they plan that they will take a picture of her and her car. When they do, they see that the front bumper has a bumper sticker on it. But it is not just an ordinary bumper sticker. It had the letters that the queen saw on the bumper!!! At the wax museum, they show it to someone at Scotland Yard. (that is the police in London.) But what if they were wrong? By seeing the queen, they remember something. It was carved in silver! In conclusion, will Mandy go to jail or will they have to stay in London for an extra day?If you like mystery and lots of clues, this book by Ron Roy is the book for you. He has lots of experience by writing books since 1979!!! All of his books are different in a good way because each time they have a mystery, it is about a different story. That is impressive because it is a very long series! Each book has different characters in each and every story. Finally, almost every book has a very different setting than all of the others.I recommend this book to mystery lovers and 1st to 5th graders. I think that they will love these mystery books. |
36 | In this simple mystery when Josh, Dink and Ruth Rose go to a dude ranch, Josh finds a golden nugget. The next day someone steals it! Will they be able to catch the thief before it is time to go home? Read the book to find out.I like how the author tells the story. He refers to all of the characters by name so I don’t mind that there a lot of characters. There are eleven characters! What I do mind is that it does not tell if Josh fell or jumped into the river. All it says is that they saw a splash and heard Josh yell.T his is not my favorite book over all because it does not have much action or description.I recommend this book to people who like easy mystery books that keep them guessing. There are many reasons why each suspect could have committed the crime in this book. |
37 | In The Ninth Nugget by, Ron Roy, Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose go to a western wheat dude ranch in Montana. A guy from the ranch named Jud, comes to pick the kids up. When they get to the ranch, they get settled, and have dinner. The other people at the ranch are, Ed, Fiona, the Clydes, Thumbs, and Jud’s Mom and Dad. A couple of days after, everyone goes to look for gold. Josh finds the BIGGEST piece, but… it gets stolen! So, I guess you will just have to read the book to find out who stole it.I think The Ninth Nugget, by Ron Roy, is a book that involves mysteries, so when you pick it up you have to be prepared to put together clues. One reason I think that is because, when the nugget gets stolen, and the only people home are, Ma, Pa, Ed and Fiona, Ron Roy makes you think it is one of those people. Another is because, close to the end of the story, whoever stole the nugget doesn’t want Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose to walk close to her/him. One last reason I think that is because whoever stole the nugget is acting the most suspicious of everyone. I think anyone who likes mysteries should read this book.In my opinion, this book was an awesome book. One reason is because Josh found what he was looking for. Then, the nugget was stolen and the characters needed to search for it. Will they find it before the thief cashes it in? If you do than this is probably the book for you. I really liked this book so I would give it five stars. I recommend this book from ages, 7-10. Also I recommend this book to anyone who thinks they lost something forever. I thought this was this was the best book in the A-Z Mysteries series because it was the most exciting and I couldn't put it down. |
38 | Then this is the book for you. The Orange Outlaw is a great book. Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are staying at Dink's Uncle Warren's apartment in New York. When they come back from a party they realize Warren's friend, Forest's, painting is stolen. The clues are orange peels and an orange hair. Will they find the painting and will they find the crook…you have to read the book!My favorite part of the book was when they came back from the party and the bowl of oranges was flipped over. There were orange peels all over the place! I liked that part because that's when the mystery starts. I like this book because there are lots of clues and suspects that really get you thinking about the solution to the mystery. I thought Miss Booker was interesting because all the clues make you think she committed the crime, but you have to be careful not to jump to conclusions!I recommend this book to 2nd – 4th graders because there are interesting clues that will really catch your attention, so go on and read it! |
39 | Well if you do, then you should read The Orange Outlaw. Dink Josh and Ruth Rose are on the case of a stolen painting. The only clues they have are orange hairs, oranges, a shaggy coat, very poor posture, and a wrinkled face. Can you help Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose solve the case?I think that this is a very unpredictable book because a lot of the characters are suspicious. My favorite part of the book was when the painting was stolen and I could feel that we were going to find a lot of clues soon so I was excited. When I was reading the book I kept thinking about all the suspicious characters with orange hair because the person who stole the painting left an orange hair.I would recommend t his book to kids who like to read mysteries. |
40 | Join Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose on their hunt for a painting thief in New York City. When a valuable painting has been stolen, can they find the painting and the thief? Can you solve the case of The Orange Outlaw?I liked this book because I think the ending was really unexpected. First I thought it was a person, but then it was somebody who wasn't even a suspect. My favorite part was when they found a picture of a missing painting because I thought it was was a really good clue. I felt tempted to read the rest of the book because there were about 4 suspects and I didn't know how it was going to end! !I recommend this book to 2nd – 4th grade readers. I think this is a great book for readers who like real, unexpected endings. YOU HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK! |
41 | This book is about three kids named Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose. They try to find out who stole Dink’s uncle’s friend’s painting that has been stolen. Read the book to find out who stole the painting!I really like the book The Orange Outlaw. My favorite character is Josh because he’s funny and says weird stuff and loves to eat every five minutes like me! There are other books written by the same author, Ron Roy, because this book is part of the series A –Z Mysteries. This book is in a series but every book is different because there is a different mystery to solve and a different setting in each book. The only thing that is the same is the genre and characters in every book. I think other kids should read this book if they like funny characters and mysteries. Someone who like surprise endings and funny scenes would love this book. |
42 | Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose are having an excellent time at Penelope Gwinn’s concert. But during an intermission … Dink breaks his arm! At the same time the singer’s diamond is stolen! Will Dink Josh and Ruth Rose be able to find the diamond in time? My favorite part was when the singer’s diamond was stolen. I liked Dink because he is the one who always solves the conclusion. Josh reminds me of myself because I like to joke around and I like to eat. Josh changed in this book because he always jokes around but in this book he got focused on the mystery. The illustrations are very good. The author uses pencil and sharpie pen. This book is unique because it has very good vocabulary. The genre is mystery. Well then this is the right series for you. I recommend this book to 2nd and 3rd graders. It makes you want to read ahead to the next page. The genre is mystery. This is why I recommend this book. |
43 | Ruth Rose likes to dress in all one color. Josh has freckles. The three kids go to visit a friend named Sammi. Sammi lives on an imaginary island named Costra.

Read this exciting book to find out.I really like this book because it had a lot of suspense and the tricks they do make you believe that it really happened. This book is part of a series called A to Z Mysteries. They are very good books because they all have mysteries and problems to solve. This book made me wonder what is going to happen next. The author has a very good way of solving the mystery. All the main characters have different personalities but they're all best friends. I recommend this book to 8 to 10 year olds who like to read mysteries. It is exciting and has a lot of action. Kids should pick out this book because the story is very good. The characters solve the mystery in a very smart way. It is fun to read. |

My favorite part of the story is when Dink, Josh and Ruth Rose find the gold because it is a real surprise! If you have never read Ron Roy's books you should start. He makes the reader feel like a real detective. I think you will too. Read this book to see who steals the gold.I recommend this book to people who love mysteries and like to solve problems.

Then Sammi's father, King Farhad, finds that his gold is missing. Good thing for him Sammi's friends are detectives. Dink, Josh and Ruth Rise begin searching for clues. They find an underground tunnel and lots of suspicious characters. The trail leads them to a yellow yacht.I like this book because mystery is my favorite genre. I think Josh is an interesting character. He is the one who finds most of the clues. This book is part of a series called The A-Z Mysteries. The stories are creatively written and fun to read.I would recommend The Yellow Yacht to second through fourth graders who enjoy reading mysteries. It is interesting for both boys and girls. This is the kind of book that keeps you guessing until the last page. |
46 | This book is about three kids named Donald, Josh, and Ruthie Rose going to a place where their relatives live. Their family sends them there because there is a mystery going on there.

Then they hear a mystery about a yellow yacht. Read this book to learn about the case of the missing yellow yacht.My favorite part was when there was a brick wall that Dink climbed up to see what is on the other side to get a clue. This was my favorite part because the picture was funny. It was Ruth Rose stretching her pants.

47 | Candy Quackenbush, a thirteen year old girl, lives in the most boring place: Chickentown, U.S.A. She wants to get out of Chickentown and that's just what she did. But she escaped to somewhere much different than she expected...the twenty-five islands of the Abarat. The Abarat is a place where they call Candy's world "the Hereafter". There are creatures she couldn't have ever imagined there and even the stars are different. When she's there, lots of things go wrong. For example, a giant moth carries her away.I liked all the characters in this book because they were all not very normal. For example there were sea skippers that looked sort of like frogs, but were blue, hopped on top of the water, and were way bigger than frogs.In Abarat, there were lots of illustrations. I liked them because if there was a character that was hard to picture, there would be a detailed picture of it. The illustrations were also very colorful. My favorite part in this book was when Candy escaped from this evil man's house with his servant, a creature from the Abarat. I liked this part because it was exciting when the evil man almost caught her and the servant.I think people who like books about other worlds would like this book. I would recommend Abarat to third to eighth graders. |
48 | Do you believe in magic? I do and I wish I had a magical power like Abby in Abby Carnelia’s One and Only Magical Power by David Pogue. This book is about a girl named Abby who discovers she has a magical power. While making lunch with her family she realizes that she can spin an egg by pulling on her earlobes. She doesn’t understand why she has this power so she starts to read books and search the internet to find out more about her special power. Abby decides to go to a magic camp to but soon finds out it is just a camp to learn to do magic. She makes friends with some other kids who can also do strange things and they are soon sent to an advanced camp. This camp doesn’t teach them about their magic but it is a place that wants to experiment on the kids. They have to use their powers to escape and they learn to work together to get free. She found out that her powers where special even though she doesn’t know why she has it. I liked this book because it was fun to read and was entertaining. When I read the book it made me laugh because of the silly powers. I liked a girl named Eliza because when she did her power she had to think about buffalos walking backwards wearing diapers. It was funny! My favorite part of the book was when Abby first discovered her power of spinning a hardboiled egg while pulling on her earlobes. I would recommend this book because it is interesting and funny. Go out and read this book today! |
49 | Whirl!” Come join Abby and her friends in Abby Carnelia’s One and Only Magical Power by David Pogue. To start off, Abby and her family were ordinary. Then one day, Abby was chopping up hard-boiled eggs when her mother came over and told her one of her earrings was missing. She reached up and tugged on her earlobes. Amazingly, the egg in front of her began to spin. So Abby went to Magic Camp to learn about her power. When she got to camp, she and some other people went to a Super Camp, a place for people who had powers like Abby. There was a very important lesson in this story to be learned. It was that all kids are special in their own way. My favorite part in this book is when Ben starts singing “U R 2 Good 4 Me” while holding some paper. Abby sees the paper Ben’s holding turn gray, and yelps. It’s funny because Ben doesn’t even notice the paper turning gray! I think this book was so amazing! I loved it! It was good because it had lots of surprises! I think Eliza changed. At the end, she was very friendly.In conclusion, I recommend this book because it has amazing surprises, humor, and action. I think children eight and up should read this book. Anyone who loves to read books with action, magic, amazing surprises, and humor should read this book. |
50 | !” Come join Abby and her friends on an adventure of a lifetime in Abby Carnelia’s One and Only Magical Power by David Pouge. One day Abby is peeling a shell off of a hard-boiled egg when she notices that one of her earrings are missing. She touches both of her ear lobes while looking at the egg, and then voilà! The egg starts to spin. Abby soon has a passion for magic, and since it was almost summer, she joins a summer camp for magic. When the counselors find out about her power, she is transferred to a summer camp with a huge secret…This is an amazing book. One reason is because the main character, Abby, goes through a lot of changes through the book. She goes from thinking magic is weird to magic being her life. She goes from being average to being one-of-a-kind. My favorite part was when Abby had to perform one of her tricks on stage. At first she was nervous, but she faced her fears and went on with the show. Everybody applauded for her and they continued the show. Something I find unique about this book are the powers people have. The power in most books are typical powers commonly seen in action books, like fire power, ice power, flying, (etc.). But the powers in this book are powers like spinning eggs, fogging up windows, and other unimpressive, small, useless powers.In conclusion, this book is preferably for ages 8 to 13. It will interest you if you like magic, friendship and summer. If you read this, you won’t regret it! |
51 | Rabbits Everywhere by Peter Larangis is a great book! One day there was a boy named Max and he really loves magic. When he was eating lunch he wanted to pull a fake rabbit out of his hat but he pulls a real rabbit out instead. Then the principal comes in. Bunnies are hopping all over the place. Max has to find them all. The next day Max asked the principal if he's allowed to wear his cape. The principal says "yes." But Max still doesn't know where the rabbits came from. Will Max get suspended or no?This is a great book! Poof! Rabbits Everywhere had great illustrations. I liked when I saw the bagel flying. I also liked the car with the hat on. There were a lot of funny parts like when Noah was singing and he got in trouble. Also, the part when the rabbits made a huge mess in the Art room. There was paint and glitter everywhere! I couldn't put this book down because Max kept coming up with new ways to find the rabbits. Each new idea of his was funnier than the last one. Poof! has great illustrations, funny characters, and once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down. I recommend this book to people who like magic. One reason is because it has people in it that do a lot of magic tricks. The second reason is because it shows you how to do the magic tricks. If you like magic this is a book for you! |
52 | The Absent Author was a great book! It all started when Dink wrote to his favorite mystery writer asking him to come sign books at the book nook. The only thing that could stop him would be if he gets kidnapped. On the big day, he didn't show up. They think that he has been kidnapped. They meet this lady named Mavis. She writes to him too. He said that his imagination has been playing tricks on him. They go to look for clues and they think they found him. Do you think they found him? Do you think they found him alive? This book is very interesting for many reasons. The first is because a character proves he is brave by writing to his favorite mystery writer asking him to come sign books at the book nook. The second reason is a character went on a mission. He was determined to find the author and information about him. Last, some characters were being sneaky; they tried to hide stuff from their mother.I recommend this book to people who like mystery books because Dink wrote to his favorite author asking him if he can come sign books at the book nook. The author didn't show up when he supposed to. They think that author has been kidnapped. So now they have to go find some clues. |

But when Dink goes to get all of his books signed, Wallis Wallace doesn’t show up for the book signing! That’s when Dink remembers that the author had sent a note that said, “Short of being kidnapped, nothing will stop me from coming.” So Dink knows that something is wrong and he and his friends have to solve the mystery of the missing author!In addition, my favorite part was when the kids met Mavis or Ms. Green. It was my favorite part because they share their letters with each other and I got to see the letters. This book is part of a mystery series. The series is called the A to Z Mysteries and each book has a theme has to do with a letter of the alphabet. This book is like the other books in the series because they are all about mysteries.

54 | Join Albie on his journey of being a fifth grade boy in Absolutely Almost written by Lisa Graff. Explore the challenge he faces and how he realizes with the help of his nanny Calista the kind of person and friend he wants to be. Absolutely Almost is about a boy named Albie who is struggling to fit in. It tells the story of Albie’s every day adventures through fifth grade; including making friends and spending time with Calista, his nanny, who helps him uncover his strengths, and Albie’s relationship with his parents. He learns that parents make mistakes in parenting too and he discovers that being “cool” isn’t really fun. He realizes the importance of being a good friend. I really enjoyed reading Absolutely Almost. Albie’s character reminded me of one of my classmates who struggles to fit in. This person is always trying to be a part of the different groups in my class. I see a little of myself in Calista because I like to care for younger kids and I love to draw. My favorite part of this book was when Albie and Calista would get donuts together and spend time together because even though Albie didn’t always realize it, Calista was teaching him lessons about life. This book helps readers understand how bullying hurts others and the importance of being a good friend to others, even if they are different than you. I felt this book is special because it relates to the everyday challenges kids face in school and in life. I definitely would recommend Absolutely Almost to my fellow third grade classmates because all kids have personal challenges that they have to confront in their families and in school. The chapters are short which makes it feel like a quick read. When I read the book I heard the voice of a fifth grader speaking to me because of the language the author used. |
55 | He’s always, always almost! You should read Absolutely Almost written by Lisa Graff. Absolutely Almost is the best book I have ever read!To begin with, there is a boy named Albie and he was an only child. Albie’s dad worked a lot so Albie couldn’t do a lot with him. For his birthday he got a fake airplane called an A-10 Thunderbolt. He got two of them because the year before, his dad got him the same present. Albie got really mad about this. For a year, Albie had waited for his dad to help him build it, but his dad never helped him so he built it himself. He tried to fly it out the window, but it didn’t work so it just fell and broke which also made Albie upset. Albie has a babysitter named Calista and she loves to draw. Calista and Albie like to go downstairs from Albie’s apartment to get donuts at the bodega. This is something that makes Albie happy. Calista becomes very important to Albie and helps him to see that he is special and good at many things. This book is my favorite book because it gave me many different emotions. It was funny, sad, and made me feel happy and content all at the same time because of the many things that happen to Albie. Some parts of this story are very surprising. My favorite surprising part was when Albie was accepted into the math club. He is very surprised because he usually thinks nothing good happens to him. I found Calista to be an interesting character. She was very nice to Albie and I was always wondering what she was drawing. She doesn’t let Albie see most of what she draws and I felt like Albie and wanted to know what it was.In conclusion, I would recommend this book to all kids ages 9-12. There are so many things that happen to Albie that many kids can relate to. You will like Absolutely Almost as much as I did! |

Albie was going to build the A-10 Thunderbolt with his dad but he built it by himself later because his dad was never home. Sadly, Albie did it wrong and threw had to throw it away. It broke into many pieces when he tried to make it fly. Albie has a hard time at school because he has trouble with his learning. Most of the kids are not very nice to him. He is nice to Becky who has trouble talking. My favorite part was when he put notes into the desks of some of his classmates to help Betsy become cool. This was my favorite part because he was being nice to her and trying to help her. I found one character that was interesting to me. That character is Betsy because she has a stutter. This is when you have trouble saying a word. A person I know who is like the babysitter character Calista is my cousin. He got two paintings that came in first place. The two pictures were really good! In conclusion, this book is for 6 to 10 year old girls and boys because the characters are interesting for everyone to read. |
57 | My book Absolutely Lucy is about a boy named Bobby Quinn who is very shy. Bobby's birthday was coming up .Every birthday Bobby was either hiding or not wanting to have a birthday party because he was too timid. Then one day when he came down the stairs he asked his three year old cousin what he should get for his birthday. His cousin replied politely and said an eagle. Bobby was astonished at the response that his cousin gave him. After much thought Bobby questioned himself .Why would his parents want to get him an eagle for his birthday? Read to find out! Absolutely Lucy is one of the best books you will ever read! One reason why it is the best book is because of its solutions to problems. An example of a solution is when Bobby let Lucy outside and he pretended to throw her a treat. then Lucy went and looked for it. Bobby was very angry that Lucy went to look for it because it was a fake treat. So they practiced it a few more times until Lucy figured out the trick! A second reason why I liked Absolutely Lucy is because of the different types of characters in the book. One of the characters is Bobby. Bobby is a shy boy who doesn't have any friends and is always very lonely. Another character is Lucy. Lucy is an active and playful puppy. She is always getting in trouble. A last reason why you will like this book is because of the funny events. One funny event was when Lucy was ripping up Bobby's important papers for work. Another event was when Lucy was jumping all over Bobby because he had some cookies. You will laugh at these hilarious parts. So you can see Absolutely Lucy is a fabulous book because it has different characters, funny events, and it has interesting solutions to problems! |
58 | A boy named Bobby Quinn is very shy. Had no friends at his new home. His birthday comes and he gets a puppy named Lucy. Lucy is not that shy. She helps Bobby Quinn get involved in more activities and gets him a friend. But Lucy also gets in trouble a lot. She chews on slippers, rips paper and chews toys. Just read to find out how Bobby helps Lucy!I think this book is very good and detailed because I could relate to the character Bobby Quinn. When I was 3 years old I moved from Norwalk and I was very shy just like Bobby Quinn. I think the illustrations look like they are popping out. Some of her illustrations even go to the next page. She uses black and white. This book is nothing like any book I read. It has easy words and great detail. It really got me to read more and more. I felt very excited and happy. It put me on a lot of cliff hangers and really amazed me! I though the book was super good. I recommended this book to people who love dogs and who have moved from a different neighborhood. I think this book would be great to read on a nice summer day and get a good glass of lemonade and it will be a perfect day! Do not forget to read this good book! |
59 | Did you know that pigs are smart? Well in this book Ace the pig is very smart. The things he did made me laugh. This book made me think about when I ask a lot of questions like Ace. My favorite part was when he was sitting in the sofa. He didn't let the other animals sit next to him because he was too fat. The other animals didn't mind. If you want to know how the animals got on the sofa you will have to read the book. This part made me laugh. I really liked this book because it was funny. There are other books by this author about different pigs. I'm going to read the other books too. My favorite character is Ace because he acts the same way I do. I recommend this book to people that like animals because the animals in this story are friendly. I think kids in first and second grade will like reading this book. |
60 | This book has a lot of action, and it has one villain. A camera in this book takes pictures of the future, and the villain wants to destroy it. Read this book and you will know the villain's name. You will also be surprised by the ending.My favorite part of the story is when Darryl got the camera and took a picture of the villain, because the camera is magical. I would like to be like Darryl, because he has the power of the camera. The pictures are colorful and full of dialogue.I recommend this book to first and second graders, because it is an action comic book. |
61 | This book is about a raccoon that wants to be a circus actor. The raccoon’s name was Adam. He lived with King Aren, he was a lion. Adam and Aren always ate together and they were thankful for their food. Aren told him stories at the chimney where the fire was. Adam loved King Aren’s stories. He always listened to King Aren’s stories. Adam loved lying by the fire when he was hearing the stories. But because he wanted to be a circus actor he ran to the circus in the night. But he was treated badly. My opinion for this book is that it was great. My favorite part was when the story said that the raccoon was not homeless because he lived with a lion who was a king. I also liked when the lion forgave the raccoon for running away to the circus in the night.I recommend this book to a kid that gets treated bad and has to live somewhere that they don’t like. But no matter what your parents will be there for you and will care for you. This book should be recommended to kids that are 5 up to 11. |
62 | This book is part of a series of books about Adam Sharp, who is a spy. He has to figure out why ships bringing bubblegum to America are sinking. He discovers that remote-control sharks are making the ships sink. An evil general is running the remote control. Adam Sharp tries to stop the evil general menace from taking over the world.The book is really good. The illustrations are awesome because they are so colorful. They also match the story very well. My favorite part is when Adam tries to knock out the sharks, but it doesn't work. That makes the story more interesting and more fun. This book is part of a series. I think this is the best book in the series because it has the most interesting story and it has the most adventure in it.If you like adventure then I recommend this book to you. There's a lot of action and adventure in this book. For example, Adam Sharp goes underwater and almost gets attached by a shark. I think people who like Hawaii would like this book, too, because the story takes place in Hawaii. |
63 | I read the book Addie and the King of Hearts. The characters are: Addie, Billy Wild, Mr. Davenport, Addie’s father (named James) and Addie’s Grandma. The setting takes place at Addie’s school, and her house. The problem is that Addie loves Mr. Davenport. Addie is 13 and Mr. Davenport is 29!So Addie was walking home and she saw Mr. Davenport in his car. He said, “Can I give you a lift?” Of course Addie just had to say, “Yes!”. Because I have something I want to talk to you about.” Addie said, “Yes, I’m going to the Valentine’s dance. Addie thought that Mr. Davenport wanted to say he loved Addie. Read to find out what Mr. Davenport really wanted to say to Addie.This book reminds me of when I went to a father and daughter Valentine’s dance with my dad. Addie also went to a Valentine’s dance with her father.Addie is my favorite character because she is sassy. For example, sometimes her friends would tease her about Billy Wild and she says, “Oh, shut up!” She is not afraid of people. She does not let other people boss her around like tossing back and forth like a volleyball.My favorite part in the book was when the announced who the Queen and King of Hearts were. When I read that part I held my breath because I was so excited.I recommend this book to kind in 3rd grade to 6th. I think kids this age would understand and enjoy it more than younger kids. |
64 | This book is about a kid named Adrian Simcox with an amazing imagination. He always tells people he has a horse “with a white coat and a golden mane and the biggest brownest eyes of any horse anywhere”. There is a girl named Chloe who does not believe that Adrian has a horse. Chloe always tries to prove that Adrian Simcox does not have a horse. She keeps on trying to prove to everyone that he lies about his horse. Chloe and her mom go to Adrian Simcox’s house and they see Adrian and his grandfather. She wants to prove that he doesn’t have a horse. Read the rest to find out what happens next. We think Chloe is very judgy. She said that he lived in a small house and he couldn’t have a horse because he didn’t have enough money. We liked how the illustrator made a bunch of plants and made the horse out of the plants. The lesson in this story is don’t assume something about someone if you don’t know if it’s right or not. We recommend this book to people who need to stop judging other people because this book is about how a girl stopped saying that Adrian Simcox does not have a horse. |
65 | Adventure According to Humphrey by Betty G. Birney is about a hamster who seeks adventure. In the beginning we meet Humphrey, a fun lovable class pet in Room 26. Humphrey is excited about the new boat unit Mrs. Brisbane’s students are learning about. They will get to build their own model boats to race at Potter’s Pond. They work with their partners on the boats. Kirk and Richie are partners, but Kirk won’t let Richie help at all, which gets Richie mad. Gail wants to keep the sail on her boat plain white, but her mom, who is helping the class with the project, is bugging her to be more creative. So Gail is frustrated throughout the project. Meanwhile Mrs. Brisbane is reading Jolly Roger’s Guide to Life. Humphrey loves it as much if not more than the students in Room 26. In the end, Humphrey decides to take a nap in Kirk and Richie’s boat. He sleeps for so long that he ends up on Potter’s Pond in the boat! Read the book to find out if Humphrey will make it back to shore. Humphrey is clever. I know because he uses the lamp wire as a bridge to get from the nightstand to the bed when he is trying to get a pant sample for Gail. Pets don’t usually do that, but Humphrey did. Humphrey is also special. I know because he writes the word squall like all the other students during the spelling quiz. He writes the word in his hamster-sized notebook hidden behind the mirror in his cage. This book is also good because it teaches a lesson about friendship. An example is when Kirk and Richie are having trouble working together and Richie tries to show Kirk that he can race a boat too by bringing a motorized boat to the race which is not allowed. He tries to get his boat to the shore before Kirk does. In the end, when Humphrey is in trouble, they both realize that they had done things wrong and apologize to each other. I would recommend this book to 3rd to 5th graders who like funny books about animals. Also if you enjoy books about friendship and helping friends with problems, you should read Adventure According to Humphrey. |
66 | In Adventure According to Humphrey, Humphrey is a nice, kind hamster who loves going on adventures. Humphrey’s class is going to Potter’s Pond to have a boat race. Humphrey is disappointed because he doesn’t get to go. The class worked in groups of two to make a boat that they will race. Whoever wins will get a ribbon. Richie is jealous because Kirk is doing all the work on the boat. So Richie plans on bringing a remote control submarine to the boat race and glide next to Kirk’s boat and show him he knows something about boats too. Gail and Heidi aren’t agreeing on whether to do a plain boat or a colorful boat. Humphrey doesn’t like the way things are progressing with partners and he wants to do something. One night Humphrey takes a stroll around the classroom and accidentally dozes off in Kirk and Richie’s boat. They put the boat in the water and Humphrey sailed off. Did Richie’s submarine hit the boat? Did Humphrey fall into the water? Well, you just have to read the book to find out.I liked the author because she is creative. I think the author is creative because after every chapter in the book she puts a quote from Jolly Roger’s Guide to Life. Not a lot of author’s do that. An example is after chapter 1 it said “If ye be seeking adventure, mateys, the only place to look be the high seas! From Jolly Roger’s Guide to Life by I.C Waters.” I learned that even though someone is mean to you doesn’t mean you have to be mean back. When Kirk was being mean to Richie and doing all the work on the boat didn’t mean Richie had to bring the submarine to the contest. My favorite part was when Humphrey was in the boat and pretended to sail. That was my favorite part because I didn’t know what was going to happen next. I recommend this book to boys and girls in second grade and up. If you like adventure, and cute animals, then you will like this book. I think you will like this book if you like authors with unique style. Humphrey is a nice, kind, and funny character who loves solving other people’s problems. If you like that kind of character, then you will like this book. Now all you have to do is. |
67 | Adventure According to Humphrey is a book about a hamster named Humphrey. Humphrey always loved boats. Humphrey found out the class was going on a field trip to Potter’s Pond. Humphrey finds something and tries to stop it but it backfires. When the teacher takes Humphrey home, Humphrey finds out something very disappointing … On the field trip, Humphrey takes a big risk… He loved it for a little while, but soon Humphrey gets very worried. Did Humphrey survive?... I like Adventure According to Humphrey because Humphrey likes boats and so do I. I was very surprised to find out Humphrey loves boats. I knew this just from the cover because on the cover it says: AHOY MEATEY!, Do hamsters float?, Pirates love the library!, and Boats are FUN-FUN-FUN. I liked the book because it informed me on boats. This book made me wonder what it would be like to have a cute pet hamster. I am recommending this book to people who like hamsters. I think it is good because the book is about a hamster named Humphrey. I think people in 3rd- 4th grade would like Adventure According to Humphrey because it does not use hard words and it’s funny. If you are a reader that likes boats and hamsters that sneak out and make a mess, than this is a book for you. |
68 | Humphrey is a smart and helpful hamster. Humphrey likes and is good at solving the kids’ in Room 26’s problems. In the book, Adventure According to Humphrey by Betty G. Birney, Room 26 is having a boat making contest. Kirk is paired up with Richie. But Kirk does not let Richie do any of the work. “Stop Giggling Gail” is usually really happy and giggly. But, Gail’s mom, an artist, keeps encouraging Gail to not make such plain designs, and to decorate the sail and be more artistic like Heidi (Gail’s boat partner). But because of her mom, Gail gets mad and then she isn’t happy or giggly anymore. Richie’s jealousy of Kirk doing all the work makes Richie break the rules. Humphrey somehow ends up in Richie’s plan to break the rules. When Humphrey falls asleep in Richie’s and mostly Kirk’s boat, and when Richie loses control of the submarine while Humphrey is on the boat … can he get to dry land in time? If you want to find out, you’ll have to read the book.My favorite part was when Humphrey ended up in the boat and Richie’s submarine was about to hit it because then I wondered if Humphrey would be saved or fall in the water. I learned from Richie and Kirk fighting, and what happened in the end, that if someone is mean to you, don’t be mean back. Kirk was doing all the work on the boat and being mean to Richie, so Richie cheated in the contest to get back at Kirk. I disliked how Kirk acted in the story because he was being selfish and mean to Richie. For example, in the story Kirk said, “Look, Richie, just let me do this. I can practically promise we’ll win because I know what to do.” I recommend this book for second to fourth grade boys and girls. I also recommend this book for kids who like mystery and adventure. I think kids should read this book because Humphrey is a smart, helpful and caring character. This book is also for kids who like books with pirates and sailboats. Read Adventure According to Humphrey to find out what happens to Humphrey. |

I recommend this book to people who enjoy reading about scary events, and those who want to see a fake mad scientist in a book. This story will really spook you! |
72 | Pow!” Be a superhero with The Adventures of Beanboy written and illustrated by Lisa Harkrader!This book is all about one boy, Tucker, and his best friend, Noah, when they go to school. Tucker needs to write a comic book so that the character in his comic book will be put in his favorite real comic book, with his favorite super hero, H20. He’s also trying to win a scholarship for his mom so she can get a better job. Plus, his Dad would then be able to move back, after the divorce which has been very hard for Tucker. Tucker also bumps into the meanest bully at school who treats Tucker very badly. This taught me a lesson to always be caring and considerate to others. I really liked this book. One reason why I liked the book, is because, it is based on a comic book that has a super hero and a villain. Another reason why, I like this book, is because it has a lot of action and good or nice people. There was a character that was very mean to everyone. She did not like anyone, except two other people. She changed, because one of the characters that played with her made her feel nice. Then she became friends with other characters in the story. As I read the book, I felt bad for the mom of Tucker and I felt bad for Tucker and his brother. I also wondered about whom else was competing for the comic book competition. This kept me guessing during the book.I would recommend this book! I think it is inspiring and I know a lot of people who like super heroes, so I think this would be a good book for them. The perfect audience for this book would be someone that likes super heroes and drawing and adventures. It could be a boy or a girl. One way the book might interest readers is the plot about how people act toward each other, like the mean character never likes anyone and always ruins stuff, but in the end, everything works out. |

You have to read Meet the Boxcar Children to find out.I really enjoyed reading the story. The words are easy to understand and the pictures are very realistic. They help bring the characters to life and are also really colorful. When the children found a cute dog, it reminded me of when my family found a pretty cat on the road, both had a happy ending. Boxcar Children is part of a series. You may like to read one of these books. I think other kids should read this book because it has fantastic pictures and has 44 pages. The type of reader that would enjoy this book is a person that likes fiction books and books about families. You may find it interesting that young children can make the best out of a bad situation by working together. |

Snail has another adventure on a fire extinguisher. Snail's last adventure is when he makes musical instruments run around the room.I liked how Snail always has fun on adventures.

Both of the books are about animals that have interesting adventures at school. I recommend this book to kids that like to read chapter books about animals. |

A sled dog, Oscar, and the cabin boy, Aleric, with Flora and Sophia use their brains to locate food and supplies to survive.One of my favorite parts is a chapter in the book where Flora and Sophia lose the trail of Aleric and Oscar in the snow and ice of Antarctica. In this chapter Sophia's paws begin to bleed. It’s a favorite part because I didn’t know what would happen. Flora talks Sophia into letting her carry her on her back. Another thing that made this book interesting was there was always the threat of Flora being eaten. However, the Captain never allows it. This made me think the Captain was one of the best characters in the book. Finally, I enjoyed this book because of the animal characters. I like reading books the most when they are about animals.In conclusion, this book is recommended for kids ages 8 and up. It inspires friendship, loyalty and gratitude. |

But, when it turned 11:59 Billy screamed "Mommy!" and he pooped.

The clown gave the dog funny glasses. Then the dog put on a show for the passengers that came in the taxi. Read the book to find out more about The Adventures of Taxi Dog. We think the book is funny because of what Maxi does. Two funny parts are when the opera singer goes into the taxi and Maxi started singing with her and when the dog put on funny glasses, then he puts on a show for the people who came into the taxi. Our favorite part is when the dog puts on funny glasses then puts on a show for people who came in the taxi. It's a funny part and it made us laugh inside. Our favorite character is Maxi, the dog, because he is funny and he is also interesting. He is interesting because he is a dog that has met a lot of people and has been all over the city.We recommend this book because it is funny and the illustrations are colorful and full of detail. When the dog puts on his shows, the pictures make us feel like we are the passengers, with Maxi putting on the show for us.

88 | Tom Sawyer is a very mischievous boy, he steals doughnuts, sugar and anything else he can find. He ran away from his aunt because when he and his friend Huck Finn were out in the cemetery one night, they saw Injun Joe, a bad guy with some of his friends. Joe was paying one of his friends to dig up the grave.Injun Joe's friend said that he wanted more money, meanwhile Injun Joe's other friend was asleep. Injun Joe didn't want to pay more money. So he stabbed his friend and then put his knife in his other friend's hand. Tom and Huck saw all that and ran as fast as they could to get away.There was a trial the next day and Tom and Injun Joe were there. Tom told the court who had killed Injun Joe's friend. Tom thought that Injun Joe would try to hurt him, so he ran away too! Read the book to find out what happens to Tom!I really liked the illustrations in this book because they were detailed. The book I read was an old version that had great drawings that were colored and black and white.My favorite part was when Tom and Huck were hiding in the back of the church and everyone was inside crying because they were sad that they had run away. Then Tom and Huck came out and everybody hugged them!I liked this book because it was very funny. For example when Tom's aunt gave him a treat and as he walked out he also hooked a doughnut. Tom also tricked kids into whitewashing the fence for him. I recommend this book to 3rd, 4th and 5th graders because it is very funny and it has a lot of great vocabulary! |
89 | This book is about a boy named Tom Sawyer. Tom is very naughty and often gets into trouble with his best friend Huckleberry Finn. The two boys are also very adventurous. In fact, they go on two or three different adventures in the book. What kind of adventures do they get into? You'll have to read the book to find out yourself! This book has a lesson to teach you. The lesson is that when you don't listen to adults, sometimes the fun turns into fright. This chapter book was fun and scary to read. It was scary because sometimes when I would read it before going to bed, I would get nightmares. But I finished the book anyway because I wanted to find out about the adventures that Tom and Huck went on. I just didn't read the story before going to bed.THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER is part of a series of books called the Dalmatian Children's Classics. I've read two other books in this series that were scary in parts like this one. They were DR. JEKYLL and MR. HYDE and the other book was WHITE FANG. I like to read scary books because I know that if they get too scary I can stop reading them and do something else for a while. Then later when my scared feelings go away, I can go back and read more of the books. My favorite scary part in THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER was when Tom met Injun Joe in the cave. I imagined what it would be like in a dark cave and so that part was VERY scary for me. The illustrations in this book are different from most second grade books. They are not on every page and they are black ink drawings instead of being in color. One neat thing about the beginning of each chapter is that there is a small ink drawing under the title of every chapter.I would recommend this book to first and second graders who are pretty good readers. If you like to use your imagination and go on adventures you would probably like this book. If you like scary stories, this might be the book for you. |
90 | This book is about Humpty Dumpty who is afraid of heights because he fell off from a big, gigantic wall. We’re sure you’ve heard about it. Humpty Dumpty loved watching birds but because he was afraid of heights he could not go up on the wall and watch them. He couldn’t get his favorite cereals at the grocery store because they were too high and he would have to climb up the ladder. He decided to make paper airplanes because he missed watching the birds. His airplane went over the gigantic wall. Does he go up the wall? There is a surprise at the end! !I think this is a good book because I used to be afraid of heights like Humpty Dumpty. (Sebastian) We like this book because it’s like the nursery rhyme but it’s longer and it’s about what happens after. We like the book because it has a lot of pictures with ladders. There are 12 pages with pictures of ladders! This book has a good lesson in it. The lesson is don’t be afraid of anything. |
91 | When Jack and Annie are on the river an alligator comes out of the river and tries to eat their boat, but Jack helps Annie escape. When they get on land they found an army of ants so they ran to the tree house and went home.Jack was my favorite character because he was courageous and kind to his sister by helping her off the boat.I liked this book because I like adventures and I also like alligators. I would recommend this book to my sister because she loves to read. |
92 | This book is about two kids, Annie and Jack, who found a magic tree house. There also was a sorcerer named Morgan. She had magic books and when the kids pointed to a picture in the book and said, "I wish I was there", they would be there. The problem is that they can't find what they're looking for, which was a mango. They learned that just because somebody doesn't look like you and talk like you doesn't mean they can't help you.I like this book because the two kids always have to get stuff and it always makes me want to know what's next. My favorite part was when Annie saw a baby cheetah and then the mommy cheetah came up and was about to jump on them. The monkey distracted the cheetah and then Annie and Jack ran back to the tree house. I liked the character named Annie because she always does stuff before thinking. This book reminds me of Sunset of the Sabertooth because they have most of the same characters. I recommend this book to kids in first to third grade. I recommend this book to people who like adventure books. |
93 | In book Afternoon On The Amazon, two adventurous siblings are going on a journey to the Amazon Rainforest. In the beginning of the story, Annie shouted “Hurry Jack!” They raced to the tree house and went inside “Panting”. They were super excited to travel through the magic tree house for the sixth time. Jack climbed in after Annie and caught a glimpse of something out the corner of his eye. A mysteries book had a picture of the Amazon Rainforest. After having a whole discussion with Annie, Jack thought it would be “neat” to go to the Amazon. on the other hand had a different opinion. She thought the bugs were very “creepy” in the Rainforest. After awhile, Annie finally agreed to go. All of a sudden, they were off! When they opened their eyes, Annie looked out the tree house window. They were there! They climbed out the tree house and started their adventure. Later in the book, they get attacked by a… sorry, I would like to tell you more but I can’t. I should let you decide if you want to read the book to find out what happens!This book is so magical and imaginative I didn’t want to put the book down until I finished it. Infact, I loved it so much I felt I was in their journey. Exploring with them and seeing animals that Jack and Annie never imagined before.I recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure and action because Afternoon On The Amazon, is a book that is very unexpecting and active. Anyone will enjoy this book very much. Also, you could never know what is going to happen next. I think this book will help people who have a hard time being creative be more creative and imaginative. Mary Pope writes a lot of outstanding books and you should read them. |
94 | Josefina takes piano lessons and Josefina has a lot of chores and things to do around the house. But Josefina can not keep up with practicing between lessons. Josefina tries and tries, but Josefina still can't keep up. When she does get a little bit, her sisters Clara and Fransica laugh at her because she was a beginner. Will she keep on doing piano lessons? You will have to read to find out.I really liked Again Josefina because it was about piano and I play piano. It kind of reminds me of me because when I go in to piano it got harder. Again Josefina excites me because you never know what she will do. For example, when Josefina asked Papa, Papa slowly said "You have many responsibilities, Josefina, and Ana depends on you to watch Antinio." So, my favorite part is the beginning where Josefina slides her hand on the piano. I would recommend this book, because I like the piano. I think people who are playing or want to play piano would like this book. I also think people who are kind of a good reader would be able to read this book. Readers might like this story because it might encourage you and maybe you will learn something new about piano. |

97 | Albert Einstein is considered the Genius of the Twentieth Century. He was a curious kid and was very smart. He acted strangely at times. People didn't expect him to do some of the things he did. They didn't expect an older man to stick out his tongue for a picture. But doing the unexpected was what Albert did. Read this book to learn all about Albert Einstein's life.I liked this book because it is about science and a scientist. Albert Einstein was interested in learning about how things work and I am too. I felt like a scientist when I was reading it. The illustrations are really good they look like real pictures. I recommend this book to people who enjoy learning about science. Anyone who reads this will learn a lot about a genius from the past. |
98 | If you read this book you will learn a lot about Alex Rodriguez. There are a lot of great hitters in the world and he’s one of them. Do you know what teams he was on? Read and find out. I loved this book because Alex Rodriguez is my favorite baseball player. Alex reminded me of myself because we both love baseball. I think he’s the best third base player in the world! My favorite part was when he agreed to change to the Yankees because that is my favorite team. I felt like I was in the book playing baseball with Alex. I could not stop reading it.I recommend this book to 1st to 4th graders that like baseball. It’s such a good book that tells about his life. There are 32 pages. Do you know where he was born? Read and find out. |
