Love, Stargirl

Do you like to read books and letters? If you do then Love, Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli is one of the best books you'll ever read!! You may have heard of Stargirl which is the book before this one. Stargirl, the main character in the story, is a homeschooled highschooler who is sad and confused. She is like this because she got dumped by her boyfriend. Now I know this sounds simple but there is more to it then you think. She got dumped before she moved to Pennsylvania, but she still loves him and still doesn't understand why he stopped loving her.     Love, Stargirl is an amazing story about how a teenager deals with the obstacles of life. And one thing that makes this book even cooler is the format the story is in. It's written in letters!! So if you want to read a soul-satisfying story, start reading this book NOW!!

Kooks in the Cafeteria Book Review

If you like comics you should read the Comic Guy series of comics! It's a short book, but its very funny. Guy's math class was so boring, he fell asleep! Sad, isn't it? His best friend Molly makes the same excuse as Guy. They end up in the cafeteria where the mean Mrs. Wolf works. She's in her office for most of the time. While Guy isn't in is dreadful punishment, he's on the newspaper. (With evil Zoe) He needs to find a story, a really good one! It took awhile but he found out!     I really like this book because it's very humorous. I just got it yesterday and read it really quickly. Comic lovers would die to read this book! You can get this book from any book store. There's also a little reading involved! Reviewed by Makenzy, Grade 4 Posted by Student on 2/13/08; 9:33:22 PM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss

Journey to Topaz Book Review

Journey to Topaz is about a little girl who's father is taken away by American police. They were a family from Japan. Their family was a very lucky family because they moved to America when the war had begun. It was against the Americans and the Japanese. Soon their brother had a great opportunity to go to Utah to help a very profesional doctor. They were out of food and they were starving. Luckily they had some very nice friends who gave them tea and cookies. They offered them a trip to go to Utah too.      You should try reading this book. It is a very sad story. It is partly about the author. It happened to her when she was not that old. Try it! Reviewed by Stella, Grade 5 Posted by FATIMA JELKS on 2/13/08; 1:44:29 PM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss
