Search the Library Catalog for this title   Meet Samantha : an American girl
by Adler, Susan S.
I liked this book. I liked when she met the friend next door.
[Children's Fiction American girls]

Search the Library Catalog for this title   Aliens ate my homework
by Coville, Bruce.
It was really good! It took some time to get into it, so don’t give up. But once you get into it, you can’t stop reading. I liked how the aliens came and landed in his papier-mache tub.
[Children's Fiction COVILLE]

This book is full of mystery. Law suits abused animals danger and so much more. I totally recommend this book!

Search the Library Catalog for this title   Ellie McDoodle : new kid in school
by Barshaw, Ruth McNally.
This is a nice book. I’ve actually had some of these experiences myself, like when Ellie enters the new school, she has to make new friends and she’s shy. She has different emotions which I can relate to. Yes I would recommend it, because it has interesting parts!

Search the Library Catalog for this title   A dog on his own
by Auch, Mary Jane.
I would give a five out of five to this book. I was super good, one of the best books I’ve read! It’s sad in the middle, but it gets happy at the end. It’s about a dog named K-10 and his two friends. They go on an adventure.

Search the Library Catalog for this title   The mark of Athena
by Riordan, Rick
It was really good. It’s the last of the Heroes of Olympus series until the "House of Hades" gets published. It has multiple characters, but the main character is still Percy from "Percy Jackson and the Olympians". It’s exciting and adventurous. I can’t wait to read the "House of Hades"!

Search the Library Catalog for this title   The house on the cliff.
by Dixon, Franklin W.
It was OK, but I never got really interested in it. I only read the first few chapters and then I gave up. It wasn’t exciting to me. You could try this book if you like books that have a very strange mystery that you eventually find out at the end.
[Children's Fiction Hardy Boys #2]

Search the Library Catalog for this title   The secret of zoom
by Jonell, Lynne.
This was very good. I’d give it five out of five stars. I liked how they had the "secret" of the stone Zoom and how it melted to a certain high pitch sound. Also how there were some things that were fuelled by Zoom.

Search the Library Catalog for this title   Encyclopedia Brown and the case of the secret UFOs
by Sobol, Donald J.
Bugs Meany gets fake photos of a UFO and sells them expensively to try to get money to prove that there are UFOs in the world. Encyclopedia proves that Bugs is wrong because the photos are supposedly taken by the army and the hours are not when the army are not at the army base. I liked this book.

Search the Library Catalog for this title   Encyclopedia Brown and the case of the carnival crime
by Sobol, Donald J.
It was good. He stops Bugs Meany and Wilford Wiggins as usual. In the carnival, someone takes someone’s shooting medal and someone steals teddy bears from one of the stands. Encyclopedia solves them all.
[Children's Fiction SOBOL]
