The Misfits
by James Howe
Have you ever had trouble fitting in at school? Do you ever wonder how life would be without your friends? I’m reading a great book called The Misfits by James Howe about a boy named Bobby. He and three other friends don’t really have the greatest social life in school, getting called and not really being paid much attention to. As one wise Addie said “Until there is LIBERTY and JUSTICE for AWWLL….let there be TRUTH in SILENCE!” This quote by Addie, a misfit, really shows how she feels and I would definitely say the same thing if I was in her situation. This book really taught me to appreciate my friends if they are popular or not. Maybe The Misfits can teach you some pointers too!!

Will Penelope ever get the chance at living a life without ridicule?

You are ugly now on the inside,where it matters most,and if you ever lost your good looks,I bet you wouldn’t be smart or strong enough to get them back.” That passage was important because it showed how the inside is more valyble than the outside.

The book that I was reading was called Money Hungry by Sharon G. Flake. The character was named Raspberry. She is a very nice girl that loves money. She has red hair and freckles. The story take place at the projects. The main characters are Raspberry and her mom. The problem was mom threw out all of Raspberry’s money, out the window and the next day their apartment was robbed and they were moving back to the streets. It made me think about how money can change you because with money you think that you have power and stuff like that. I would recommend this book to I don’t know. The good part is when Raspberry wanted her money back.

I thought that the most interisting part was when he had a nightmare it would happen to him in real life. I would recomend this book to someone that like mystery and is into ghosts. This book made me think about how people can see ghost and how others can’t. “he waited while she looked carefully at the picturer. He just knew she was going to say yes.” “No she said.” That teaches people not to give up.
Queen Bee
One thing this book made me think of was about this girl being powerful and controlling everything like that page I read when she really want something. She brakes it or makes it come to her even though she wants to stop it and she can’t I also think that the girl is sicket and have vison. I also think that she moved schools because she wants to be populore and not be a loser like she was at here old school, so even thought I just started this book and wrote about I thought the book is going to be about all that because the tittle says Queen Bee So yes I do think that book make me think of all that. and I also think someone shold read this book because it is a teenage book to read and even thought it does not look cool you shouldl still get it because it is an entersted book to so that is why I think someone should read this about and see if they like it.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you were an orphan and you were left alone with a big mansion? One statement that really made me think about the book was when the mayor said, “There are tourists that are coming to Nods Limbs.” This made me think that there might be some tourists coming to the town. One detail that I really liked was when Edgar was making a giant fan. I would recommend this book to some one who like adventure and fiction books.

Tells a story about two characters who go adventure trips. The story takes place in a dusty old place called rattle snacks flats. The main characters are Annie and Jack.

The book has some good parts, for instants they take off on horses.
One thing about this book i really liked was it is not boring & doesn’t get boring. I think the author did a good job because she sold many more books.Tom sum it all up i just liked this book.
It’s Raining Benjamins
If you’ve ever heard of The Cheetah Girls, you might think that it is just a little girl’s story. After reading the book, It’s Raining Benjamins, I’ve learned that the Cheetah Girls dealt with the same teenage struggles as a normal high schooler these days. Boys, friends, and most of all, drama. Trying to make the big time and hit a record deal,, Chuchie and the other ones, Bubbles and Do re mi, must make money. Making their own Cheetah Girl neck wear and trying to sell it is a pain too. They come to many problems and even friendship breakers before making it. For example, when Bubbles stepped in dog crap. They all went to the school bathroom to wash her shoes in the exploding sink. All the pressure broke Chuchie down crying. Pressure from trying to sell the Cheetah Girl chokers, trying to pay her mom back for charging her credit card, and trying to hold their friendship together through all of the crisous. Will they work it out in this story? Or will the drama be too much to get through right now? I strongly recommend It’s Raining Benjamins to anyone who likes problems, conflicts, and lots of teenage logic.
Gaby that book sounds interesting and like its a very cool story i might read it.
I would recommend this book to someone who likes funny jokes like how to get a horse out of the bathtub is a funny joke like many others. I think the author tried to get that questions people ask everyday. The answers of the questions will always be funny. This book is good for funny people.

by Judy Allen
Did you ever wonder about monsters, ghost, or creatures of the night. The author describes the unexplained monsters and where the have been seen. Another thing mentioned in this book is the people who has seen the monsters and where they have seen them. I would recommend this book to people who like to get the chills. one of my favorite parts in this book is when the discrib big foot. one of the things that make me think is is this stuff really real. I think the auther was successful telling about this book because they made it seem so real. a sentence in this book is Professor Bender was one of many investigators who failed to salve the chilling mystery of the faces that appeard in the floor of the pereira family’s house.

Speak
by Laurie Halse Anderson
Melinda Sordino busted an end-of-summer party by calling the cops, so her old friends won’t talk to her, and people she doesn’t know hate her from a distance. The safest place to be is alone, inside her own head. But even that’s not safe. Because there’s something she’s trying not to think about, something about the night of the party that, if she let it in, would blow her carefully constructed disguise to smithereens. And then she would have to speak the truth.
Speak is one of my favorite books. In fact, it is one of the reasons I wanted to be a middle school Teacher Librarian. See, before I came to Niver, I taught elementary school for 4 years. Then, I was an elementary school Librarian for 4 more years. Then, I read Speak, which got me reading other Young Adult literature. That is a big part of why I wanted to work in a middle school…the books are so much more fun!

I think the author was successful in telling the story of the great ending. To sum it al up, I liked how she saw her mother and father.
