Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card

  Wow, this is an awesome book!  Exciting, sad, happy, interesting are some of the words to describe this book. For this post, I was thinking of writing some of the good things about Ender's Game and then letting you guys leave comments. For example let's say I wrote " This book is very inspiring." You may leave a comment that says " What is inspiring about this book?". I will answer your questions on my comments page.

1. My favorite characters are Ender and Valentine.
2. Ender has gone through a lot of hardships in his life.              
3. Ender killed the biggest enemy on Earth when he was               eleven.
4. Ender didn't mean to kill the biggest enemy on Earth.
5. Ender's brother, Peter used to skin squirrels alive and watch them die.

Please don't forget to leave comments. I am getting lonely. :(

Enjoy the movie trailer for Ender's Game. If you watch the movie remember to read the book too!

Poppy - Avi

Oooh! this is a really good book. My favorite character is the main character, Poppy. She is a very daring creature for a mouse. I mean when you picture a mouse you don't picture it holding a porcupine quill and stabbing it into a great-horned owl's talon. Right? Or left?

      My least favorite character is Mr. Ocax, a great horned owl. If you read this book don't be fooled by his "niceness". Here's why, in the beginning Mr. Ocax says he is protecting all the mice in Dimwood Forest from porcupines, when in truth he is afraid of them!

Ivan the One and Only - Katherine Applegate

This is an interesting book. It is written in poem form but DO NOT BE FOOLED! This isn't a poem so if you don't like poems you will still like this book............ I hope.

   My favorite character is Ivan ( obviously) and I don't really have a least favorite character. Although sometimes Keep (the person who took care of Ivan ) was a little mean to Ruby (a baby elephant who lived in the mall with Ivan).    There are some sad parts in the book like when Stella, the elephant, dies because her foot is so badly infected. Also, when Ivan and Ruby have to leave Keep's shopping mall and go to a zoo. 

    Thankfully, like a fairy tale all goes well at the zoo. Ivan gets to see Ruby everyday and he even gains leadership of the gorilla pack.

   Here is the book trailer for you to watch

   

                                                                                      

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian - Sherman Alexie

I like this book a lot, but if I were the author I would not use bad words at all!

My favorite part is when Junior makes the best steal in school history during the basketball game. There are some sad parts in the book. I feel very bad for Junior when his Grandma, sister, and his dad's best friend died. The strangest part is his sister was burned to death and she didn't even feel it because she was too drunk!

The Wolves of Willoughby Chase - Joan Aiken

              This is quite an interesting book! I am so happy this was one of the hundred books! If you ask me why, I will tell you because it is a very intense book. Some characters like Mr. Grisham are in disguise. The saddest part in this book is when Bonnie finds out her parents died! You should totally read this book! I like/loved this book because it was very intriguing and interesting!

If you liked this book you most definitely love the other books Joan Aiken wrote. http://www.joanaiken.com/ 

    

The Twist from The Strange Case of Origami Yoda

If you have read The Strange Case of Origami Yoda then you will know what I am talking about. And if you haven't read the book yet then read the book before you watch this video.

You all remember at the end when Tommy ends up doing the twist with Sara at the school fun night? Right? Well I was looking up some videos on YouTube and I saw a video for the Twist. So I decided I would post it on this blog because we all have read the book. Right?

The Strange Case of Origami Yoda - Tom Angleberger

What a good book! I am very glad this book was one of the hundred books. Why you may ask? Well, I had read this book before and I had really enjoyed it the first time.  So I was excited to read it again.  My two favorite chapters are Cheeto Hog Story and The Embarrassing Stain.  This book is so funny because of the stunts origami Yoda makes the guys do.

If you liked this book you will definitely love the others in the series. Just click on the link to see the books in the Origami Yoda Series
