The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy
by Lauren

The Penderwicks is a book you wouldn't want to put down! It has many different problems that happen at one person and many other problems that are happening at another person. I highly recommend this book!

The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy
by Sam

The penderwicks is about a family moving into arudel a huge mansion(they lived in a cottage out back). When they find a boy they want to get along with him and he wants to get along with the penderwick sisters but his mom doesn't allow him to. This story is full of risks by the penderwick sisters.

Princess Academy by Kristine
I thought that the book Pricess Acadamy was amazing.  It has very descriptive writing.  I thought the ending was very unique because it  had a surprising ending that had a strong emotion.  Miri, the main character was very confident in the story.  I also think that Miri and her family had a good chance of being the next royal family.  I  hope others will enjoy the story, too in the future because in the story it has some detail that you will enjoy.

Thunder from the Sea by Margarita
I read the book Thunder from the Sea. It was an awesome book. I thought that Tom was so brave to slide over ice with a pregnant women and a dog pulling them! I was so happy when I read that the Murray's adopted Tom. The best part was when Fiona had the baby.

Thunder from the Sea by Sam
I thought Thunder From the sea was an amazing story. I  also thought it had lots of surprises and decisions. It had many amazing adventures.

Worth by Sam
I think Worth is one of the best books I have ever read!!!!!   It is the best book I have ever read because something is always happening.  For example when Anemone placed an orange and a flower on the bench that Nathaniel sits at. Another time was when Nathaniel's leg got shocked by lightning and fell off.

Yankee Girl by Megan
Yankee Girl is a great book because you can learn that colored people are the same as white people. Another reason is that you can learn how back then they treated other people.The last reason is how hard life was back then.
