In me and Marvin gardens, by A.S king is about a boy named Obe who discovered a new species of animal. He names the animal Marvin Gardens. He thinks the animal is the solution to the pollution problem because the animal eats plastic, but his scat is toxic waste that melts the dirt. Is Marvin Gardens the problem or the solution?

I think the title of the book is ok but i would change the title to “the plastic problem” because there is a plastic problem.

The Terrible Two By Jory John and Mac Barnett Is about a kid named Miles Murphy who recently moved into a new town, Yawnee Valley where everything smells like cows. Miles was the best prankster in his old school, but once he goes to a new school, he learns he is the only prankster. When his principal has suspicions he pairs Miles with the best kid in school, Niles.

I think the title “The Terrible Two” is a good one because it hints that there are 2 terrible pranksters.

Surveillance State by Josh Chin is about Surveillance and censorship in china. The book first shows how the Chinese government oppressed minorities in the western regions of China. Then it goes into how the Chinese government uses AI to track everything their citizens do to track if they pose any threat. The government also uses AI to empty streets up by locating any street vendors, trash, and bikes not in bike racks will be taken. I think the name fits the book as it summarizes what the book is about. How the Chinese government uses AI to surveil what their citizens do.

Candices grandmother passed away but before she did she was trying to solve a mystery when doing this she has a feeling that there is something under the tennis courts so she digs them up to find nothing. Candice goes up to her attic years later and finds a mysterious letter in a box labeled for Candice. Candice and her new friend from across the street spent their summer finding clues and learning about their town’s history looking for a fortune, the Parker inheritance.

One thing I would change about this story is that Candices grandmother was still alive because she would be very proud of her granddaughter.

The book “How to be the Best Third Wheel” by Loridee De Villa is a book about a high school senior ( Lara ) who comes back to school after summer from the Philippines to find that all her friends are in relationships. While her friends are focused on their relationships Lara and her childhood enemy James are both third wheels. Lara wants nothing to do with James. Until James’ mother pleads for Lara to tutor him. The two start to get closer and maybe even more then friends! What happens next? You have to find out!

Writing prompt: Do you think the title of the books is a good one? Why?

Answer: The book titles is good and bad in both ways. The book title is good but Lara being a third wheel is not the whole plot. But then again it does explain the firsts part of the story and being a “third wheel” did bring Lara and James together. But I think the author could tweak it a little to match most of the story.

The catch is, Harry did not put his name and the goblet, and realizes that whoever did is trying to kill him. The tasks he faces test his skills, and his mind. Not to mention, Mr Crouch, a leader in the ministry of magic has been acting strange.

Nothing could prepare Harry for his fourth  year, as his loyalty, skill and friendship are tested. In the end, his closest allies might be the ones working for the dark lord.

My favorite characters are easily Fred and George. They’re the two mischief makers in this book, the ones who get into trouble. From the beginning where they ruin the Dursley's house, they immediately start to be great characters. From gambling with Luda Bagman and then getting blackmailed, they’re humor and mischievous never stops.

In the book Dress Coded by Carrie Firestone a girl named Molly thinks that the dress code at her school should be banned. She starts a podcast and interviews girls who share their story about being dress coded unfairly. Through these stories Molly starts a rebellion with her friends to ban the dress code. Molly is also having to deal with challenges at home and with friends. The question is, will Molly and her friends ban the school dress code once and for all?

My favorite character in Dress Coded is Molly because she is a good leader, she is brave and she fights for justice. She is a good leader because she creates a podcast so girls know they are not alone. She is also very organized and if you are a good leader then it is crucial to be organized. Molly is brave because she is not afraid to stand up to people and protest. Finally, Molly fights for justice. This is important because if no one stands up for justice then life will be unfair for everyone. This is why I think Molly is an incredible character.

During the past two weeks, I read this book called the Hunger Games. One of my favorite scenes in this books is when the main character Katniss wins the Hunger Games with her partner, Peeta. In the book, the Hunger Games is a (game) that they take all of the kids in any District and pull out one girls name and one boys name. Where they live, the territories are split into districts. For example, Katniss and Peeta are from district 12. Katniss’s family is struggling to get by, so the hunger games is a great option for them to get food because if you put your name in more times, then you get extra bread, or Tesserae. Katniss has a 12 year old sister named Prim, and her mother Carine. This book has many adventurous themes to it, and for me, It took a lot of effort to put this book down!

In the book New From Here by Kelly Yang, it’s about a family that has been separated with three kids and their mom went to America while their dad stayed in Hong Kong. The three kids, Bowen, Knox and Lea stay with their mom in America hoping to hide from the virus. The siblings need to learn how to get along and help their mom, but before long, the kids miss their dad and find ways to earn money and buy him a ticket to America. On the other hand, the virus is scary, people in America are also starting to get infected and cruel things are happening to other races. The main character and middle child, Knox, is a kid with ADHD and not the best relationship with his older brother Bowen. Bowen and Knox are constantly fighting and criticizing each other. While Lea is too young to know what is exactly going on. In the book New From Here by Kelly Yang, the kids learn to keep their family together and understand what was going on.
I think my favorite character is Bowen, because in a way I feel like him.  In the book, we learn Bowen is constantly impatient and mad because he can’t control it, but really he’s sensitive and hard on himself. I think Bowen is a very important character because he helps show a sibling rivalry between Knox and Bowen.

Charise is very curious which gets herself into trouble by doing things that her parents tell her not to do and she going to far away from home. In the end Charise learns that she is dangerous and apologizes to Daniel and that make it up to each other.

If I could ask the author one thing it would be were you like this to your brother when you were younger. I would ask her this because a lot of times when the authors name is the main charter’s name they usually base it off of real times in their lives.

Every year in Quill teens are sorted into 3 categories. The strong smart Wanteds go to the university to become governors and teachers, the Necessaries stay to do the farm work for the Wanteds, and the creative and artistic Unwanteds get tossed into the Great Lake Of Boiling Oil. On the day of the sorting, twin brothers Aaron and Alex Stowe await their fates. Aaron is  hopeful of becoming a Wanted, Alex knows his chances are slim. He was caught drawing with a stick in the dirt. In the gray, stark land of Quill, that is pretty much a death sentence. When Alex and the other Unwanteds face their death, they discover a buried secret that might just save their lives. If I could ask the author, Lisa McMann one question about the book, it would be, What inspired you to write this book? If I could spend a day with any character in The Unwanteds, I would chose to spend the day with Alex’s art teacher Ms. Octavia the Octogator. I would ask her to give me some magical art lessons like Alex receives in the book. I hope you read The Unwanteds and love it as much as I do.

Out of my Mind is a book about an 11 year old girl named Melody. Melody is disabled and she can’t walk, talk, write, or go to the bathroom. But Melody has a photographic memory so she remembers everything but can’t tell anyone. Melody struggles because everyone think she is dumb because they think just because her body is messed up her head is messed up.

I think that the author Sharon Draper named the book out of my mind because Melody is stuck in her mind on the cover it shows  her goldfish, Ollie jumping out of a bowl. I think this really represents the bowl as Melody, and Ollie as her mind. I think its this because Melody is stuck in her mind and wants to get out of it. That is why I think the cover is perfect.

After starting to be included in other classes Melody finds a device that finally lets her communicate.

The one and only Bob is written in verse, and is about a orphaned dog named Bob. Bob snuck into a mall and made his home there until the mall shut down. He gets put in a pound and on his last day there, a girl named Julia adopts him. Bob meets and elephant named Ruby, a gorilla named Ivan, and Julia’s family. Just when Bob thought he was having the luxury life, a tornado hits when he is in the zoo, releasing a dangerous wolf into the wild. Bob hears his so called dead sister’s bark, and escapes from Julia’s arms to try and save his friends and find his sister. Will he save them, or will he die trying?

My favorite character in this book is Ruby. She is an elephant in the local zoo, important enough to be on the cover. I like her because she is always optimistic, even when times are tough. When the tornado hit, all she wanted to do was save other people before herself. Even during rough days, she pushes through. She is always happy, and calls Bob “Uncle Bob!” And Ivan, “Uncle Ivan!” 😁. She loves her home at the zoo, with all the other elephants. I mean, who wouldn’t love a life of luxury with all of your friends?

In the book there is a girl named Melody who can’t walk or talk. Everyone thinks she is dumb and she isn’t she is really smart she also has a photographic memory so it make her even smarter.  The book shows the challenges she goes through and the things that makes it easier for her. It shows how she learns how to talk my favorite character is her little sister Penny because she is funny and sassy. One thing i would change about the book is that she wouldn’t be bullied. I think it is a great book and you should read it

This is a great book and i think you should try it out.

After Nora blackmails Riley to go  on the cyclone roller coaster ate Coney Island Riley has a Stroke and is rushed to the hospital and is paralyzed. I think that the title of the book is not very good because only one chapter in the book they are on the cyclone. I think a better name for the book is stroke. This is because most of the book is just about the stroke. When they are not talking about the stroke they are talking about relation ships ruined by the stroke.

Ellie meets a strange, cranky and weirdly looks familiar boy. He looks a lot like grandfather! He is now living in their house. On top of that she found out that her fish she got preschool had died thirteen times. Her best friend is now going volleyball and does not have time for her. She misses her fifth grade. However, she meets a boy named Ram who helps Elle’s grandfather with a science experiment.

I like Ellie. She is a funny and interesting character.she is always wondering and always has something to say! We are same like that. We are also different because I don’t have a grandfather who needs to steal something that was his and all just to be famous!

They are both not human, they are both very powerful beings. And they each have a story of where they feel different from the the others.

She wonders if their world is really as perfect as they say it is. But the even bigger question is what is the only ‘banned’ ability and why was it banned?

In the book Restart by Gordon Korman  a kid named Chase does not remember falling off a roof, losing his memory, and waking up in the ER in a coma. When Chase goes back to school he realizes he was a leader  of a bully group that bullied a kid all the way to boarding school. Chase fells guilty, he does community service when he does not have to. Along the way he finds interest in a old man.

I think the book title fits the story because the book is about chase falling off a roof and losing his memory. It’s almost like he’s “restarting”. And book is called Restart.

In the first book of the Land of Stories, Alex and Conner Bailey, two twins realize that there is a land of stories, and their grandmother is the fairy godmother. In the last book, Worlds Collide, the two worlds are colliding, the fairy tale world and NY,  and Alex eats a magic dust that makes her evil. With witches and Conners fairy tale friends trying to occupy NY, things are hard, but with an evil Alex somewhere in NY, things get harder, but the worst thing accord… Alex feels upset for the people she hurt, and can’t control herself, because witches are controlling her. Important: The last book is best, but you need to start with the first book.

Conner is one of the main characters, and he is really good in finding a solution to a problem, and the solution is really creative, just like me.

Circe’s path intertwines with many greek myths, most those during the Greek Heroic Age, the most notable of them being the Odyssey, all from the perspective of the Great Witch of Aiaia, Circe.

If could spend one day with Circe, I would want to learn her witchcraft. I would wander the showers of Aiaia, and go to the great mountain where Circe casts her protection spell every month.

City Spies  is about a girl who is an orphan named Sara Martinez. She is a hacker and gets in trouble and is on trial. However, she is recruited for a group of kids spying for Britain. She says yes! She is training for huge mission with the rest of the team while trying to get all of the team to accept her. While new challenges come up Sara has to work together with her team to try to save the world! If you like action, realistic fiction and books about spies you should read City Spies by James Ponti. Also it is a series so if you like the first book you can keep reading!

If I could spend one day with a character from City Spies I would spent it with Sydney. I think this because she is very kind and welcoming. I would want to be with someone like that not someone that would take a while to welcome me. Lastly, she is a spy which is pretty cool.

Twelve year old Sophie Foster is a telepath (so she can read minds.) So school comes easy to her. Because of her abilities Sophie got moved up to be a senior in high school. But Sophie is still a kid even though she is getting scholarships from Ivy League colleges. Sophies whole life changes when her class goes on a field trip to the museum and Sophie meets a strange boy. The boy tells Sophie that she is an elf. Not human an elf. Soon Sophie has to leave her whole life behind to go to a new world. Sophies learns what bigger things she will face.

The book keeper of the lost cities reminds me of the book Harry Potter. Because in both first book's of  both series Sophie and Harry feel like they are not related or part of their families though Sophie’s family does not treat her cruel like Harrys family. Later in the books Sophie and Harry are told that they are not human. Harry and Sophie have to live in new worlds and go to new schools. Sophie and Harry are also both orphans but Sophie did get adopted from her new family in her new world. These two characters are both really similar because they both go through very hard things but still they both always con our it.

In Restart by Gordon Korman, 8th grader, Chase Ambrose falls off of his own roof, and suffers amnesia, meaning that he can’t remember anything. When he finally gets back to school, he starts to learn about who he was. Chase is shocked. He happened to be the ringleader of a bullying group containing him, and his two friends Aaron, and Bear. He also finds out that they bullied a kid all the way out of school, and got sentenced to community service by a judge. Chase is disgusted, but he starts to find new hobbies, with the people he used to bully. Aaron and Bear are horrified, Chase also finds joy in doing community service, and is especially interested in one old man. The question still remains though. Will Chase gain his new friends trust, even after he made school exile for them, or will his new friends leave him, and Chase must restart again?

One thing that makes me admire Chase is that he pushed himself to change. He was forced to change, not by anyone else but him. He changed out of his own disgust in who he was that he wants to separate two different eras. Who he was, and who he is. He also is not affected by his old bullying buddies trying to push him to be the same, he ignores them and also turns on them. He blocked out everything else and just focused on trying to separate the old Chase away from the new Chase.

Out Of My Mind by Sharon M. Draper book review by Rory S. 5H

# data[].attributes.body
Out of My Mind is about a girl named Melody who has cerebral palsy. That means that she cannot move her body fully, and cannot communicate. She learns to communicate with a board with words and phrases written on it. But, the board doesn’t fully help her say what she’s thinking. Since she’s disabled, everyone thinks she’s dumb and doesn’t know anything but Melody is actually very smart. She goes to school at Spaulding Street School, and is in the classroom H-5 with other disabled kids who can’t be in a regular classroom, and Melody knows everything that they learn. Later in the book, she explains more about her life with a disability.

I think Out of My Mind is a good title for this book because Melody actually is out of her mind because she can’t tell people what she’s actually thinking. All of her thoughts are trapped in her head and she can’t tell others what she wants to say. The board doesn’t have everything that she needs, and she will probably never be able to tell people what she actually thinks.

Percy Jackson is an ordinary boy living in Manhattan, well he’s not that ordinary. Percy always gets kicked out now his schools, he needs to be in boarding school to be protected. He gets attacked by many monsters, for example his Pre-Algebras teacher and soon a mystical creature and many more, he has to live life on the edge to survive.  Soon he finds out he's a half blood, half human half god. His mom risks her life to save him, all of this is evidence he doesn’t understand his life or who he is. He knows what he has to do and is always going on crazy adventures with his friend.

My favorite character is Annabeth Chase. She risks her life to save what matters most to her while also saving Olympus, humanity and her friends. She’s smart, strong, mysterious yet relatable.

There are 5 books in this series 100% would recommend.

I don’t think the title of the books is a good one because its not really about keepers, its more about the lost cities. I think the part about keepers shouldn’t be in there because they only come up a couple of times. If they were more important, wouldn’t they come up more?

This is the story of Jude, an 11-year-old girl from Syria, who is forced to leave her home and start middle school in the U.S., a country that she doesn't know at all. Jude has to flee with her mother when the war in her country gets too close to her home. She leaves her father, older brother, and best friend behind and moves in with her mother's brother's family in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Jude worries a lot about her brother who is fighting in the war in Syria and she feels very lonely starting middle school in the U.S. and struggling to learn English. At first, Jude is shy but also angry about the way she is treated, especially when she experiences racist comments and mean behavior.

I really liked the main character, Jude. She is brave and strong. She faces lots of challenges but she tries to be courageous by remembering her brother and the war back home. I liked reading about a character whose home is so different from any place I've every experienced and I admired Jude for trying to be strong for the people around her.
