Book Reviews
These reviews were submitted by the members of our Book Bites program. Join us on Thurs. at 12 for lunch and bring the book you are reading to share with the group. (For school age kids who are reading well on their own.)
 Dust City by Robert Paul Weston
Review by B-liz
You should read this book because there are goblins and wolves. My favorite part was when a wolf scratches the goblin.







Alice Miranda at School by Jacques harvey
Review by Melody
You should read this book because its odd, fun, and people scream on the floor. My favorite part was when Jancinta is on the floor screaming.





Marley: A Dog Like No Other by John Grogan
Review by Laurel
You should read this book because some of the parts of the book was funny. My favorite part was when Marley and his owners were driving in the car, and Marley jumped out the window when the car was moving.





 
The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
Review by Gabby
You should read this book because it's about a group of brothers whose parents die and they live on their own. There are socs and greasers. My favorite part was when Johnny stabbed Bob because he was drowning Pony Boy.






Cars: the novelization by Lisa Papademetriou
Review by William
You should read this book because it's a funny book. My favorite part was when McQueen rolled out of the semi-truck (Mac).

Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder
Review by Tara
I liked the book because wolves and panthers and bears roamed the deep Wisconsin woods in the 1870's. My favorite part was when Laura got her doll.


The Life of a Boy Named Bob by Sandy
Review by Sandy
You should read this book because Bob goes to school and makes a friend and sees her everywhere he goes. My favorite part was when Bob had a fight with his mom.

Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder
Review by Brittany
You should read this book because it is a really good book. My favorite part was when the Indians came in the house.



The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
Review by Chrissy
You should read this book because it's about a orphaned boy being raised by ghosts. This presents all kinds of interesting problems, since ghosts don't usually eat anything or need to find anything for a toddler to eat. My favorite part is the first sentence. "There was a knife in the darkness." Super creepy.
