This book is really weird and I don't really recommend it, it's about five kids that take a shortcut throughou the mall one day and see aliens in flying saucers at a construction site. I know right, wow. Then an and alive prince stumbles out of a damged ship and gives them secrets they will never forget.........EARTH IS UNDER ATTACK! And these three teenagers that no one picked for any particular reason are givin the power into any animal they touch and they have to save the planet!
Wow.

Island of blue dolphins

For my children's classic I read The Island of Blue Dolphins. It's a story about an Indian girl  named Karana who is on an island that is shaped like a fish sunning itself around it there are lots of creatures like blue dolphins( of course) and otters and other animals. Her tribe sails to the east but they leave her there. For many years she waits for a ship to come and get her It's the story of how she grows up, making shelter, making weapons, finding food and fighting wild dogs. I found this book kind of boring acctually and it is kind of similar to Hatchet. I've never heard of this book untuil now and I wouldn't give a high recommendation but if you have nothing to do, be my guest.

I loved this book so much and I think that everyone in the class should read it at one point or another. Its about a boy named Ben. His parents one day brings home a baby chimp. They name him  Zan. They then start teaching Zan sign language when he is two months old. Ben goes through a pretty normal life with things at school homework and girls. Ben then becomes to really like Zan and Zan really likes Ben. Then Ben has to make the decision of beliving what he belives is true or what he is being told to keep Zan from a horrible fate.

Frankenstein

This book is wow. That's all I have to say. It's really awesome like i said in my other blog I really liked it. The part that I said when I was at a confusing fpart was when. The creator or Victor Frankenstien creates the monster. However the confusing part was when the monster killed his wife and then his dad dies of guilt. To me that part is really confusing. That' not spoiling anything  The book is still really getting lots of details that I missed.  I recommend this to everyone

Frankenstien

I really liked this book not just because it was a classic and not because it was just awesome. I loved this book because it was written well. I hadn't known what my favorite writing style was untuil now. It is very good, and it's also not like all of the Disney cartoons (if they have one about frankenstien) it's very good. ( I know I said this a million times but) this book is very good. I think everyone in the class should read this at one point or another because........it's really good. I think this book should very well stay a classic for the rest of time, it is on of my favorite books now. I think this book is a classic because it kind of shows a lot of things that happen to average people in their social life, and(as I said before) the writing style is very good.

Catcher and the rye

This book is really good. And I don't know how to explain it besides of Max said at the talk about the classic books. It's about a kid at a boarding school and then he goes and runs out to New York basically. It's really good and it's one of my favorite books and I think everyone in the class to get to read it sometime.  It's about 200 pages long  land not that many words per page so it's a pretty quick read.  It's written really well and it's really good book.

THE WORLD WITHOUGHT US

This is a pretty good book by Alan Weisman. I really like this book and i have no idea how he could have written it. There is a lot more than what I heard Linda talk about, ( at least what I heard I might have dozed off for a second) but there is a lot of interesting things in it including a chapter called : 'The World Without War' which is one of my personal favorites. I really like this book and i think you should all read it.
