He gets beat up when he's a kid until he makes a deal with his bully. He teaches the bully, Mitchell how to read and write and Mitchell teaches him to fight.He stands up to the other boys with Mitchell's help.

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.

Dragon Slayers Academy Review

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. by Bertha, Grade 5 Posted by Evan Nichols on 11/5/07; 9:22:14 AM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss

Our Only May Amelia Review

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 Grade 5 Posted by Evan Nichols on 11/5/07; 9:11:11 AM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Review

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! by Jackson, Grade 5 Posted by Evan Nichols on 11/5/07; 9:06:52 AM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss

Akiko and the Great Wall of Trudd Review

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! by Kenny, Grade 5 Posted by Evan Nichols on 11/5/07; 9:00:08 AM from the Book Reviews dept. Discuss
