Little House on the Prairie - Plum Creek - Laura Ingalls WIlder

This is one of my fav books in the series. The family moves again and I think in this book Laura and Mary get in ALOT of trouble. This post's talk is how to tell a good book from a bad book:
1. Does it have a summary
2. Do you like the genre
3. Do the first few pages seem interesting??

The Little House on the Prairie series - The Little House in the Big Woods - Laura Ingalls Wilder

This is an awesome book. Plus it has a series!! which makes it even better. My fav character is Mary, but enough with this boring stuff! It's time 2 talk about this posts how to. This time our How To will be.........How 2 tell if a series is going 2 be good!!

1. Read the first book in the series.

2. Decide if it's good and ask yourself, does this book intrigue me?

3. KEEP READING!!!

Alice's Adventure in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll

I hate this book!!! Although it's a classic and it is a great lesson I just think it's really boring. Here are a few reasons why:
1. It's super long! If they make such a long book they could at least make it interesting.
2. It's a super childish book.
3. It doesn't hook me, if a book doesn't hook me in I WILL NOT read it.

Three ways to know if it's a good book:
1. Do the first page seem intriguing (even if it's one of those books that are boring until the middle. You should at least feel interested.)?
2.. Does the book seem your type? do you like fantasy? Is the book non-fiction? If so this book is totally not your type of book.
3. The third one is up 2 u, what do u like in a book? Tell me in your comments!!

Because of Winn-Dixie - Kate DiCammilo

Because of Winn - Dixie is an AWESOME book about a girl who meets a stray dog at a groccery store called Winn - Dixie. The girl's mother ran away when she was born and her father didn't like dogs. What would she do without Winn - Dixie? Find out when you read the book!

Here's the Movie Trailer:

Diary of a Wimpy Kid - The Ugly Truth

  This is a great book. In this one Greg takes this health class and finds himself stuck with an egg. HE is instructed to take the egg home for one day and keep it safe. Can he do it? Naah. He ends up putting the egg in the fridge and his moms scrambles it for breakfast!! I think that's exactly why I hate eggs!!

Diary of a Wimpy Kid - Hard Luck - Jeff Kinney

I hope you guys all like Diary of a Wimpy Kid cuz I'll be blogging a lot about them. In the last book ( If you don't remember it's The Third Wheel) Greg wants to go to the Valentine's Dance but he doesn't have a girl to go with him. He finally gets a girl named Abbigail to go with him but he has to take Rowley with him. IN the end the "date" totally doesn't work out. Greg has to spend all his money that he had earned on dinner and Abbigail starts flirting with Rowley. So in this book Rowley and Abbigail ( yes I said Rowley and Abbigail) have become a couple! That basically ruins the whole friendship thing between Greg and Rowley. Anyway Rowley and Abbigail win the cutest couple award which ticks Greg off even more! But then get this Abbigail breaks up with Rowley! Even after winning the cutest couple award. That basically puts Rowley and Greg's friendship back in order and they all lived happily ever after. RIght? Maybe not.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid - The Third Wheel - Jeff Kinney

Ah..... what a nice break from classics. I really like these books because they're a mix of a real book and a comic. The most hilarious part has to be when the Mad Panster pantsed Vice Principal McRoy. 

There was also another funny part. It was when Uncle Gary buys this shirt shop from a guy and turns out all the words on the shirts are misspelled!

Mr.Poppers Penguins - Richard and Florence Atwater

This is quite a funny book! Between fighting penguins and a poor man traveling all around the world, you won't be able to tell what's real and what's not! There are 12 penguins living with Mr. Popper, his two kids,and his wife. The strangest thing is that Mr. Popper is able to support that many living things when he is a house painter.

I thought you guys might enjoy the movie so here is the trailer.

Caddie Woodlawn - Carol Ryrie Brink

The strange thing is I just found out this is a classic. What happened was that I brought the book to school  and one of the teachers remarked, "Oh' you're reading that book, I read it when I was a little kid!" Well, I wasn't that surprised because a lot of the books on the list are classics but still.....

Anyway I just got a little side tracked. This book is pretty interesting and I really like that Caddie (the girl this whole book is about) is friends with the natives that live near her home in Menomonie, Wisconsin. They're actually called savages but I like to call them natives. Her mom is afraid of the Indians. Whenever Indian John (one of Caddie's friends) visits Caddie, her mom always gets scared and gives him whatever food she has available because she thinks he will kill her family. 
Oh which reminds me, I absolutely positively have to tell you one of the things Caddie's mom says." I don't know how you are friends with these savages but if they eat like Indian John does I am positive we will be eaten out of the house." It might not be the exact quote but what she says in the book is something along those lines. 
If you are wondering about Caddie's personality she is a tom boy and she likes to fix clocks!
