Big Mouth and Ugly Girl

By Joyce

Rating: ***** 5/5

Review: I thought this was a great book. It was all about a boys’ big mouth and a girl thinking she was ugly. It starts out when the boy, Matt, jokes about ‘blowing up Rocky River High’ and ‘massacring a few hundred people’. Two witnesses hear and tell their father, who tells the police. Matt gets in trouble. The girl, Ursula, actually heard what Matt said, and defends him. I think everyone should read it!

The Princess Diaries

By Meg

Rating: ***** 5/5

Review: This was a really good book. It is about a girl, Mia, who doesn’t know she’s a princess. When she finds out, she is forced to have princess lessons from the dowager princess, her grandmother. Although this has been made into a motion picture, it is totally way different than the real book.

Silverwing

By Kenneth

Rating: ***** 5/5

Review: Silverwing is one of the best books I have ever read. It is a great adventure that makes you never want to put the book down; I stayed up way past my bedtime reading it! Usually I don’t like any type of an adventure book, but this one changed my mind. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a good book to read.
