Inkheart by Cornelia Funke


If you like action, if you like a little death, and something puzzling, you should read Inkheart. Inkheart is a awesome book because people have weird names. The main characters are Meggie and Mo( Mortimer or Silvertounge). Inkheart is a good read for 4-5 graders. There are these bad guys who try to get Silvertounge to read gold out of a book, and it works! The bad guys were also read out of a book! It is a very fun book!

Football Genius

He knew it was wrong. It was wrong to sneak out of the house after midnight. It was wrong to take something that wasn’t yours, And even though he wasn’t that kind of kid , that night, he was doing both.
Thats 1 problem.
“At least I have a father” said Jamie Troys biggest enemy
Thats 2 problems. Could it get worse.
“So she works for the Falcons’’ said Troy
“I bet not” said Jamie
“Yes”
“If she can get the football on Saturday I will give you a football signed by Billy Johnson.
Problem #3 could it ever get worse.
Football Genius is such a good book that it will make you jump off your seat.

The Outsiders


The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton, is a book about a group of older boys.
It’s the kind of book that is Greasers vs. Socs (gang vs. gang). It’s more of a boy book but girls would enjoy it too. It’s about a boy named Ponyboy who has an easy, laid back life. Soon problems are flung his way and he and his friends and family have to deal with them. This is a book I suggest you read with an adult. I loved this book and I hope you will too.
