They were... meh. The art was engaging, but I felt like the story needed a lot more fleshing out. Each book felt like a chapter in a bigger narrative, not a self-contained story. Several of them ended on cliff-hangers; I was glad to have the next one ready to hand. The writing was a bit awkward at times, and again, I was frustrated by a sense of incompletion.

"He picked up Excalibur-it's a purple knife and my name is cut into it. He saw me and ran-we bumped as he got out the door. He shoved Excalibur into the pocket of his green pants as he got outside and kept running." "You didn't chase him?" "Naw, Woody broke his arm last week, and I don't fight one-armed kids," said Bugs. He rolled his eyes toward heaven. "Anyhow, his mother will be my math teacher next year." "You want me to get the knife back without anyone knowing Woody stole it, is that the idea?" asked Encyclopedia."

While I understand the need for books about the refugee crisis and to encourage kids to be emphatic, I don't feel this was the book. The main character was so overreaching with her voice, trying to hard to be like a kid. There was no time to create characters- this are just what an adult thinks kids are like. There are so great quotes about refugees and their plight , with some good language for kids to understand. But I hope this will be a jumping off point for a better book to be written. ...more

Or they are so self-conscious and snobby they dont even care about the great outdoors, only about their clothes you can see in multiple parts in the book that aside from their lessons, they usually spend time thinking how to benefit themselves. And as for the horrible part, well its hard to tell. It could be from their parents influence, (especially their mother's) or it could be because they were lonely. we dont really know about the twins' lives in England, except about Lady Parsons. But it seems like they didnt have any friends. I think when their isolated with no one except each other, they get sad, and eventually it turns into anger. But i'm not sure of the correct answer.

'A Cage Of Roots', book one of the 'Ayla' trilogy by Matt Griffin begins with 12 year old Ayla trapped and seemingly buried alive. Not exactly the best start for our protagonist, but it does set the tone for the rest of the book, as Matt describes the panic and fear in Ayla really well.

I loved everything about this book so it's hard to say which parts I enjoyed the most. Probably it was when things got really creepy - like the moment when Ebony sees herself in the mirror. Things started getting really weird and exciting and I couldn't stop reading! I also fell in love with Winston the rat - I'd love to have a pet rat (but we have lots of cats so it wouldn't really work out)!

You say Auggie got a medal for nothing, but if you really read the book you know that he was given a medal because the headmaster recognized his struggles were especially hard on him. It might give people the image that disabled people are special and that they should be treated more special than 'normal' people but I don't see it that way. I don't think anyone who has not lived with a visible disablity can tell how a person with that has to go through in a world where your outer appearance has so much signifigance. The schools these days award children with medals for whatever achievements they value and giving a medal to a boy who faced his fears and managed to pull through the year even though he was bullied seems like a good choice to me.

As for Julian not having his own chapter I partly agree with you. It was not fair but judging by the way he acted I think it would not have been pretty to read. Julian to me seems like a bit of a bad stereotype but I know there are people like him in the world. Still, I think he was also a human too. The author wanted to give the reader the power to judge him. But we must of course do this cautiously because we do not know all the facts when it comes to him. It could have been that he was going through something else which resulted in him trying to seek attention. I guess he could have been forgiven in the end if he had only asked for forgiveness like Jack did, but he never did admit hurting Auggie's feelings.

The book could have taken the bully's perspective more into account, I agree, but to say that this book is about hating on bullies and not forgiving them is wrong. What Jack said was extremely horrible, and yet Auggie wanted to forgive him. Also, the other boys who first bullied him but later defended him were forgiven, so that shows the book is not about holding a grudge.(less)

The Princess Diaries is the first volume of the series of the same name by Meg Cabot. It was released in 2000 by Harper Collins Publishers, and later became a film of the same name starring Anne Hathaway.

Mia Thermopolis is an average urban ninth grader. She lives in Greenwich Village with her single, liberal mother, who is a semi-famous painter, but Mia puts on her Doc Martens one at a time, and the most exciting things she ever dreams about are kissing senior Josh Richter ("six feet of hotness") and passing Algebra. Mia's father comes to town and drops a major bomb: he's not just a European politician as he's always led her to believe, but actually the prince of a small country. And Mia, his only heir, is now considered the crown princess of Genovia. She doesn't even know how to begin to cope: "I am so NOT a princess.... You never saw anyone who looked less like a princess than I do. I mean, I have really bad hair... and... a really big mouth and no breasts and feet that look like skis." Mia's troubles are worsened: her mother has started dating her algebra teacher (Frank Gianini), the paparazzi are showing up at school, and she has a fight with her best friend Lilly. After this they don't talk for a while and become distant from each other. Mia goes to her Grandmère's Plaza Hotel room in order to begin princess training, where she starts to develop into a great princess. Throughout the story Mia also makes another friend named Tina, who is shunned because of her overprotective father, who makes her have a bodyguard.

Mia Thermopolis: Describes herself as a five-foot nine, flat chested, freshman, freak; also known as Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldo, Princess of Genovia. Mia loves to write, has a tendency to obsess over everything that happens to her, is a vegetarian, identifies as a feminist and is currently failing algebra and many other subjects.

Grandmere: Mia's grandmother, who loves Sidecars, is highly critical of everyone around her. She has a hairless poodle, Rommel, and she calls Michael Moscovitz that boy. Her full name is The Dowager Princess Clarisse Renaldo. Mia and her Grandmother don't get along with each other for most of the story.

Lilly Moscovitz: Mia's bossy activist best friend, who has her own television cable show, Lilly Tells It Like It Is.

Michael Moscovitz: Lilly's older brother, who is extremely smart and according to Mia, is attractive. Also Mia's crush.

Lana Weinberger: Head cheerleader, initially Josh's girlfriend, dislikes Mia and puts her down throughout the book.

Josh Richter: Mia's crush, "six feet of unadulterated hotness." Originally dating Lana at the beginning of the story, he is shown to have manipulative tendencies.

Helen Thermopolis: Mia's quirky painter mother, who surprises Mia by dating her algebra teacher. She is described as irresponsible.

Philippe Renaldo: Mia's royal father, who is the prince of Genovia. He had Mia out of wedlock, and is constantly annoyed by his domineering mother, has many girlfriends, and tells Mia that she is a princess after he is no longer able to have children because he had cancer.

Tina Hakim-Baba: A girl whom Mia befriends throughout the novel. Her father is an oil man sheikh who is worried that she will get kidnapped. She originally is shunned because her overprotective father forces her to have a bodyguard (Wahim), but she and Mia quickly become close.

Frank Gianini: Mia's algebra and homeroom teacher and he dates her mother, Helen. Mia grows to appreciate his after-school algebra review sessions, and though their relationship begins awkwardly, Mia and Mr. G seem to get along well.

Lars: Mia's bodyguard. He follows her almost everywhere and lives in the Plaza. Has some serious blackmail on Mia, having followed her around everywhere.

Fat Louie: Mia's very fat cat who is attracted to anything shiny.

I mean they deal with crime and fighting but the main character is also 12 years old and very relatable, I would say. I think it depends if a child can deal with fightings and stuff but I don't think it's inappropriate. It's real and not brutal. ...more (less)

I have the original paperback which was marketed as a YA novel, and it does come across that way. The tale follows Richard de Clare, a Norman knight known as Strongbow, and an Irish king's daughter, Aoife or Eva.

When the king of Leinster finds his enemies in other clans are plotting to seize his lands, he invites a Norman sell-sword over to Ireland with an army, just temporarily of course. He offers the leader a more permanent arrangement; marriage to his daughter and green lands to call his ow...more

Yes the target audience is young adults but I as an old adult found it an amazing and educational story of the Nazi occupation of Denmark.

From the Afterword, a part of a letter written by a young man from the Resistance to his mother, on the eve of his execution:

"You must not dream yourselves back to the times before the war, but the dream for you all, young and old, must be to create an ideal of human decency, and not a narrow-minded and prejudice one."

I'm all for human decency, anytime, anywhe...more

I read this to my daughter and really enjoyed it for two main reasons.

Firstly, it is set in Wales - in the town of Manod, close to where I have stayed on holiday on several occasions. I love doing a Welsh accent and this book allowed me to try out my whole repertoire of Welsh voices which I enjoyed.

Secondly, it references a lot of pictures from the National Gallery and it allowed us to get pictures of them on my phone and discuss the artwork.

It's a charming little story that looks at the power o...more
