This book is the next step of The Land. If you have read The Land then you need to read this book. It is about two boys and these white boys who are racist and dump a dead skunk down the only water the state has. Which is the Logans well. The Logans are black. I don't want to tell you everything. You have to figure it out by reading this amazing book. Read The Land first. Then the well. Next up Roll Of Thunder Hear My Cry. Don't forget about Let The Circle Be Unbroken.
This story is full of everything. It tells you about how it was in the early nineteen hundreds. The story shows how much the world has changed. Would you want to live in a world with non-stop killing because of your skin color? It wouldn't be like it is now. Take Sequoia as an example. Fatima, Grade 5

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!!

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!

Do you really want to read a good book? Well you've come to the right place! This is a book about this girl Miley and her two friends, Lilly and Oliver. Miley has a secret that she is really Hannah Montana. So in this book Miley has a class play and Lilly and Miley have to choose partners so Lilly chooses a guy (I forget his name) but now Miley has to choose Oliver. So after school Miley and Oliver go to Miley's house and start to rehearse what they're going to do for the play. There is just too much to tell you about!
Now is this book only for girls? Nooooo it's not. Anyone can read it! If I were to rate it on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest I would say probably an 8 or 9. I really like it!!! It is awesome! If you're out there reading this book review and you think its a good book and you don't know where to get it then go to google and look up "Hannah Montana Hold On Tight." So look it up now!
Thanks for reading this review!

Want a book all about mystery? Then Jigsaw Jones The Case of Hermie the Missing Hamster is the right book to read for fun or even in class. Once you read one of the chapters of this book you will get into it so fast. Even if you are in class reading this book and your teacher tells you to put away your book, you will just keep reading.
This is about this boy who is good at solving every single mystery his classmate tells him about. His name is Jigsaw and he has a partner name Mila and they are just in 2nd grade. One day, there was this boy who needed help to find Hermie, his hamster, back. So he asked Jigsaw for help. Did Jigsaw get Hermie back?
I give this book a two thumbs up because it gives a little hint each chapter you read. Everybody will start liking this book because the author describes each scene with descriptive sentences.

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!

Don't watch TV, don't be lazy, and read this book. Do you love adventures books? Then you will love The SpiderWick Chronicles! SpiderWick Chronicles are some of my favorite books. Trust me, you are going to love them! There are five books. Get them all! The people in the story are Mallory, Simon,and Jared. SpiderWick is about three kids that move to their great aunt's house because their parents have a divorce. But there is something that is way too strange. So Jared starts looking for stuff. All of a sudden he found a secret and a book filled with real creatures. Jared had never seen them before. Simon loved animals so Jared showed it to him but he had never seen them before either. They find all of these different creatures like fairies, and elves.There is more to it but you have to read the rest of the crhonicles to know what happened next.

"Dinomummy" has arrived! We are the first of the Oakland Public Schools to obtain this book. Hah! Sequoia rules! This is the story of the first dinosaur fossil to be discovered with its skin, musculature and tendons still intact, enabling revolutionary research as to its true size, life habits and cuz of death. It was discovered by a Yale University student who found his first dinosaur fossil near his hometown of Marmarth, South Dakota when he was only 6 years old! Kids rule, two! Yay! Mrs. Harteneck will create a sign-up sheet for this and some other new books (such asyoul Can Draw", "Backyardigans Treasury", "Star Wars", "Disney Tales of Fun and Friendship", "Just Like Dora, "Funky Fashions" and "Disney Princess Tales") which have turned out to be wildly popular beyond her expectations. First come, first served. One week time limit, beginning January 7 for Dinomummy. (It would be unfair to let one preson have this book over the winter holiday.) If you want a preview, you can watch "Dino Autopsy" thiss Sunday on the National Geographic Channel (according to the S.F. Chronicle). SEQUOIA STUDENTS LOVE SCIENCE!

I recommend Jigsaw Jones: The Case of the Detective in Disguise because it is a wonderful book. You could learn
different kinds of code in this book. In this story there are two
situations that the detective and the friend have to find out about. This
story is about this detective that was in disguise and the detective
and his friend had to find out who kept on stealing the brownies at the
friend's store. The other thing about the story is that there is a kid
that thinks that he could try to find the person who stole a
football. The person who stole the brownies was...

The book I am writing about is The Accidental Cheerleader. It is a
really good book. It is funny, exiting, sad and really interesting.
I don't know about you but I really enjoyed it and I think you will too,
especially if you like funny, and exciting books. You may find this book
in Borders, your local bookstore (The Laurel Bookstore), the library or in school book orders.Tell your parents to
take you to borders or the library today and look for The Accidental Cheerleader!

My favorite book is Dragons Slayers' Academy:Class Trip to the Cave of
Doom. I like it because it's funny when they do silly things like their
coach gets scared out of his wits when he finds some frogs in his tent. Another silly part is when some of the kids in the group "Bloodhounds"
have to carry their coach after he becomes a looney. The coach had
called himself Queen Mary. It's also funny when the bloodhounds had
to tickle their headmaster to get his hands off of some gold being
sucked down from something.
I'm not sure about you, but I really enjoyed it. If you can't find the book, go to a nearby library in your neighborhood or a town.

Dear Book Lovers (and children bored from watching T.V.),
I
have some great news!! During the month of September I read one of
the best books of all time. The name of this masterpiece is Our Only
May Amelia. Our Only May Amelia is a touching story about a young girl
in a settlement who is the only girl in Nasel,Washington. She
has to deal with 7 brothers, her grumpy Pa, and chores.
It is sweet and
sad, and VERY heart warming. I would really recommend this story for
all ages. It's a great story to sit down and read, or it could be read
to you by an adult. Personally I wouldn't read this story at night
because of one scary part, ( you'll have read the story to find out
what it is though). So go to the library and pick it out, borrow it
from a friend, or go to book store a buy it. I promise you, if you like
historical fiction books, or are just looking for a new book to read
you WILL enjoy it.
Sincerely,
Simone

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, by Roald Dahl, is a great book. I like this book because it is funny. It was funny when the large boy
fell in the chocolate lake. Also it was funny when that girl turned
into a very fat blueberry. I like the part when you can take the Wonka
bar out of the T.V. There were lot of people that were getting Wonka bars
for the golden ticket.I like the part when the people went on the boat
ride. Well that is all I have to say! Go read this book!

Boys and girls of Sequoia. I want to tell you about Akiko and the Great
Wall Of Trudd. It is about these travelers trying to save the prince
and they end up at a great wall. So they climbed the great wall of Trudd and saw a restaurant that was empty but a person that serves food.
He gave free food and jackets because he never saw customers in a long
time. So he served him monkey brains, nasty bagels, raw fish and
something like that.
When they were finished with their meal, they went to a cold place icy,
snowy too. They kept traveling to Alia Rellaptor castle. Then they were
there finally. When they were at Alia Relleptor. they were on a new journey.
This is a great book. You will absolutely love it!

Heeeeelllllooooooooooooooooooooooo Sequioa Elementary!!!
Here's an extrordinary book for all you kids. It's called The
Extraordinary adventures of Ordinary Boy. This book is filled with
action, friendship, and mystery. It's all about ordinary boy and about
his life without powers when he lives in a town where everybody has
superpowers.
I think the book is a good book for kids. When you read this book it
will blow your mind away. Also, there is a special twist in it.

Dear Sequoia Schoolmates,
This is old time book worm. You may not know about
this book but William Shakespeare wrote it. This play is very old. If
you like romance and action read this book. There is a tragedy. If
you don't know what tragedy means don't read this book. Romeo and
Juliet fall in mad love. Romeo ends up in a battle. Now remember this
is the middle ages. Don't forget you can ask me any time.
I give this book 5 stars. 5 being the highest. This the second best book that William Shakespeare wrote. You have to READ THIS BOOK!

Dear Sequoia Schoolmates,
This is a really good book. It is about a boy who sprains his arm. It is called The X'ed- Out X-Ray.
The boy falls off a horse. The x-ray got crossed out because the doctor
stole the necklace and hid it in Dink's cast (Dink is the one who
sprains his arm.) The doctor hid it in Dink's cast because the doctor
didn't want to get caught.
This book is fantastic!!! I give this book a 100 out of 100!!!!!!!!!! You should definitely read this book!

Wassup kids?!? This is Donald the bookworm telling you about Animorphs #46.
This book is totally awsome!!! The story of 4
morphing teenage kids, an alien who also morphs, and a
boy-turned-hawk who can also morph. They have to fight an evil
alien race called the Yeerks.
In this book, the animorphs have to get to special outposts. They
are each 7 miles out to sea, and 2 miles apart. The only way they can
get there is to fly in a jet. The rest of the story, well, find out for
yourself.

Hi, my name is Charlotte,
I am reading a book called The
Borrowers. I recommend this book because it feels like you are one of
the characters. If you like fantasy stories you will like this book.
The Borrowers are called the Borrowers because they borrow things from
people. Would you like to be a little person who lives in your own
house? Well, if you do, then this will tell you the story of three
small people (or borrowers) who live in somebody else's house.
One of the main characters is Arritey, who is about seven, and likes to
go borrowing. She meets a boy on her first time borrowing. They become
friends. The boy gives Homily (the mom) and Pod (the dad), and of
course Arritey, things from an old doll house. That's why I like this
book.

Hey students of Sequoia. This is Jordan and I'm writing about The Ghost
at Dawn's House. This book is about Dawn living in this very old house
and trying to find a secret passage. She reads a book that she borrowed
from her friend about mysteries. With her friend's help, they find a
pathway that leads to her barn downstairs. When she and her friends
find it, they slide down it. When they have to go, they go from her room to the
barn in order to get home faster.
I recommend this book because it has
very interesting chapters about what she went through during school,
after school, and at home. Read the book to find out exactly what
happens.

My favorite book is Horrible Harry and the Dragon War. I like this book
because it is very funny and exciting. The summary is there is these 2
kids are having a drangon fight so they know which dragon is the best and
there is an American dragon and a Chinese dragon.
My questions are how did they make the paper dragons? How did they make
it breath fire? When they made the paper dragon
it reminded me of when I make oragami. I am sure you will enjoy this book!

Hello my name is Sidney and I will be presenting to you a report on
my favorite book. It's called Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
I really hope you like it because it's a really great book. It is also
a really really really funny story.
You should read this book because there's lots of magic and fantasy
involved in this story. It makes you want to read it forever. It's
very scary and sad if you like scary or sad stories. It also for some
reason makes you think is Harry Potter going to be all right, how is
he going to survive, and how does Harry put up with the Dursley's evil
behavior?

Matilda as you all know is a movie. But before that it was a book. Personally I think the book is better. There's alot more details., and it really makes you feel like your there. The athur of the book is very good at writing. You can read it or have it read to you.
It's for 3rd graders to read by there self, I think because there some very challenging words in the book. You might think eh.. reading is so last year,but it's really really interesting!

Geronimo Stilton is a great book and a great author. It's about a mouse that runs a newspaper called, "The Rodent's Gazzete". He goes on lots of adventures and gets into lots of trouble. He has over 21 books. I think that his creative writing is really inspiring.
He won an award for his second book, "The Curse of the Cheese Pyramid." I think his books are fantastic!

It is a book about a bird who only lives in Katroo. It comes to your
house and you have to know the secret hand shake. He picks out a
birthday present for you.
Why I recommend this book is because it is written by Dr.Seuss.
One of my favorite others. He has written many books. Like one of his most famous books The Cat In The Hat.

Little house in the big woods is a great book and a never ending adventure about a little girl named Laura. She is 5 and her sister Mary is 6. Ma and Pa are grown ups. Oh and Pa tells the best stories like the one about the pig and how it got on their sled. That was one of the funny stories.
I recommend this story for third and forth graders. You will like it because it has a good plot. If you like stories about kids you will love this book.

Hey, you third graders! So have you heard of Harry Potter? Well I
have read almost all of them and from my point of view they're very
exciting! If you like fairy tales that sometimes have violence and
scary stuff then you're in perfect shape to read it!
You may not want to read it at night, but every other part of the
day is good. If you're like me, you might start reading it nonstop.
Then when you have a very hard assignment it will be hard to stop
reading (but you can do it!).
Anyways, if you have already been reading them and you finished the
6th and you want to know when the 7th is coming out it will come out on
July 7, 2007. But if you haven't been reading them then you should
really start!

The Egypt Game, by Zilpha Keatley Snyder, is a very exciting book. It's
about a girl named April from Hollywood. Her mom is a singer. Her mom
is on a tour. So April is living with her grandma that she hardly
knows. I like this book beacause its about a girl from Hollywood which
I think is exciting. April and her friends use recycled materials to
make their Egypt costumes.

Junie B. Jones, by Barbara Park, is about a girl who is great and
funny. Even though she is in first grade, she can use some outstanding
words.
It's a really cool book for you to read. It is the kind of book that
you can read over and over again. You will want to read this book.
