The book that I am reading is a A Mother to Embarrass Me, is every thing on the list. It's a really good book. There is one thing on the list that my book is not by my favorite author but it's still a good book.
The book I am reading is Dexter the Tough . My book fits in with this list because I am glad that I found this book and once I start reading it, I just want to keep reading on. I do get pictures in my head of what the setting looks like and what the characters look and act like.
I know what the book is about because the author, Margaret Peterson Haddix , does a very nice job of describing in detail what goes on in this book. This book is by my favorite author which is one of the reasons why I just want to keep reading on. She always leaves me wondering what is going to happen next.
The book that I am reading Stormbreaker is one of the best books I read by Anthony Horowitz. I plan to read the Alex Rider series. I also understand the book.I think that it is amazing how they use all of these cool secret gadgets and all of this other spy stuff. Last year Stormbreaker was recommended to me by a teacher and I started to read it but I did not get to finish the book. I enjoy the book because it is kind of like Spy X and I liked that series. I read it last year in fifth grade.
They catch a lot of fish for supper to eat. They like to go for a hike to bass lake to catch some fish to eat.
In the book Ghost Soldier I can hear the main character Alexander talk to people. I can see him talking to his friend Rich and I can see him running. This book is about war which is one of my favorite subjects.
This book is perhaps one of my favorite books. I can read almost all the words on each page and I can be entertained when I read for a long time, without getting bored and stopping.
Hi,Mr. McGuire! I'm writing to you to tell you about this great book I'm Reading called Dairy Queen . This book is perfect. I selected it by random and now I don't want to put it down. I would read in my sleep if possible.
The main character in my book is called D.J. Schwenk. She is a farm girl who was forced to quit her high school basketball team to help out on the farm. D.J. still gives 110%. If I had to quit my sports team in order to do chores, I know I wouldn't give 110% around the clock.
I think D.J. looks like a tall rough looking girl with short brown hair and a shirt with holes and tattered jeans. I think she has a Northern accent since she lives in Red Bend, Wisconsin.
I think this is a great book and it is for anyone.
I like the book Counting Stars. I am glad I got the book. I hate to quit reading my book because it is such a great book. I don't really want to take the book home and read some more because I want to save it for school some I can tell my friends about it.
When I read the book Counting Stars I get these pictures in my head like I'm there in the book like I'm the main character. I here voices of the characters talking in my head. I can read most of the words on each page that I read.
The book I'm reading is a poem book and the title is The Light In The Attic It is a good book if you like funny poem books I like poems and if you do look up that book.
The Book I am reading is Ghost Soldier The book I am reading fits in with the list because when the main character of my book looks out his window and sees the soldiers, I can picture what they look like by the way he describes them.
Another way my book I am reading fits in with the list is when I read the part where the main character saw the soldiers Mr.McGuire told us to stop reading and I didn't want to stop reading because I wanted to know what happened next.
I remember that book I read it in like five hours because i did not want to put it down. You made a good point if you start to read that book you will not want to put it down. Not even if you are hungery as can be and your mom or dad just made you food.
Cirque du Freak Is a great series. One book you will laugh and another part in the book you will be chewing on your fingertips.
I recommend this book to all the people who love vampires.
Matilda is a very good book because I like a very mysterious book and she is very adventurous and mysterious!I like the part when Matilda finally gets to go to school and she is the smartest one in the class.So miss honey told Miss. Trunchbull that Matilda needs in a higher class and Miss. Trunchbull thought she couldn't handle her so she said "cant handle the little brat huh"?!I recommend this book to all of you who like a happy,sad,adventurous and mysterious book because you will love it!
The book I am reading is Spy Gear The Secret of Stoneship woods . When I read this book I have a hard time putting it down after the time is up. Sometimes my mom has to have a crowbar just to get me to stop reading so we can go to town.
Another reason why my book is the right book for me is because when I read it I can see the pictures in my head. Like when the kids went to the stoneship woods they found a cement wall. One of the kids climbed it. I saw that as clear as a digital picture.
The next reason why Spy Gear The Secret of Stoneship woods is the right book for me is because I love reading spy books. When I read them and something happens and it doesn't tell you I stop and think for a minute and make a guess of what it is. Later in the book I usually find out if I am right or wrong.
The last reason why I love my book is because When I read I can hear the person talk like he/she is standing right there beside me. Like when Cyris talks all his computer knowledge I picture him with a kind of squeaky voice.
The book that I am reading, New Moon is 100% the right book. It is the kind of book that gets you hooked in the first chapter. I understand it completely and I would recommend it to anyone. It is everything on the list, no doubt!
Before I saw the movie Twilight , I already had a picture in my head of what Bella looked like. In my head, she was a very pretty girl with long black hair and a pale face, she wore jeans and a plain t-shirt. Her voice sounded like a teenager's voice with a deeper tone.
When we leave Language Arts I cannot wait for another chance to read my SSR book.I read it whenever I get my classwork finished early or on the bus.I seriously don't understand how people can hate reading, because I love it so much.
My sister, Hayley, had recommended this book to me. When she first told me about this book, I had thought that a book about romance and vampires would be stupid and cheesy! Hayley had told me to read the first chapter and if I was wrong then she was sorry, so I did and I was instantly hooked!
The book I'm reading is called Pippy Long stocking by Astrid Lindgren. the author does a really good job on giving details about Pippy Long stocking like were she lives. The book gives so many good details I get a really good picture every time I start to read.
Pippy Long stocking is a nine year old girl that lives alone in a house called Villa Villekulla. Pippy has a monkey called Mr.Nillson. Pippy took Mr.Nillson from her fathers boat and some gold pieces. She bought a horse with one of the gold pieces. The horse lives on the porch. Her mom died when she was just a little girl. She doesn't know were her dad is but she thinks hes on an island.
The book I'm reading is While No One Was Watching It is a very funny book, like when Frankie talked with his mouth full. I can picture it in my head food coming out of his mouth all over the table. It's like I'm in the book.
I hate to quit reading it it's so good I wish we had more time to read so I don't have to quit reading. I'm going to take it home and read it some more.
I am reading Horse Crazy. The book is about 3 girls that are crazy about horses. The book gets you hooked on it in the first chapter.Horse Crazy is a good book for me because I like horses.
I am reading a book called Melvin Beederman the superhero. I understand this book very well. I can picture what is going on in my head and see what things look like. This book is so good that I do not want to put it down. I usually can't find many books that I like as well as this one.
The book I am reading is called Ice Fire . It is a funny book. David is the main character and he makes jokes about dragons all the time. Like when he got a letter he didn't like he asked the clay dragon to burn it. And it is also sad because David's dragon, Gadzooks, almost died but David saved him.
I am reading The Fellowship of the Ring. It is a good book. This book matches almost all of the things on the list. When Frodo and his friends are traveling I can see them walking or riding horses, and when they are talking I can hear their voices. Whenever SSR is over I can't wait to get home and start reading again.
I am reading a book called Heart Beat . It is a funny book because the character Max is very funny. 1)He thinks his mom is carrying a alien in side her. 2) Every time he tries to do something his grandpa hollered at him to find out how his mom made something.
I would like to recommend this book to people that like poetry.
Spy X is the book I am reading. I think the author does a good job at describing to the reader what every thing looks like. Also the author does a good job at making his books interesting and luring the reader more and more into his books.
I would recommend this book to all people who like mystery books.
The book I am reading is I Am The Wallpaper . Its about this teenage girl that thinks she is like wallpaper, It's there but know one really pays any attention to it. After her sisters wedding almost everyone just stopped paying attention to what she said and did. And worst of all is that her aunt and cousins come to stay with her for three weeks! That's a handful. And she has to share a room now that's major pain to a teenage girl that needs her space!
I hate to stop reading when I get into the book because it is a awesome book, and I can't wait to finish it and see what happens to her and all her other problems. And when I am done I can read more and more books! I wood recommend this book to any one because think they would like it.
Messenger is a book with a lot of good details which makes it easy to picture things in my mind. For example when in the book it says that Matty and Kira sat by the fire and Matty watched Kira's hands sewing faster and faster until he could see a picture. I imagined the picture in the fabric and at the same time the nice sound of the fire in the background. Usually can not find books I am interested in because I am very picky but this book is a really good book. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes books that have adventures.
The book I am reading is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and it is a great exciting book that I hate to put down.
J.K. Rowling the author of my book makes so much action happen, that it feels like I am right there in the book just watching. Sometimes it feels like I just sit there and let every bad thing that happens, happen and I can't do anything about it.
I really enjoy this book and I really want to read all of the other books in the series.
The book I'm reading is Boys Are Yucko and it is a really good book for girls to read.
This book tells about this nine year old girl who thinks boys are yucko. The reason why this girl thinks this is because girls at school keep on teasing her.The girls keep on saying that she likes this boy when she doesn't.
I really enjoy reading this book. I think that every girl should get a chance to read a book like this.
The book I am reading is called My Brother Made Me Do It . The book fits in with the list because when I first read the cover I had two read it. I do picture what the main characters are like. I also picture what happens in the book.
When it is time to quit reading it gets right at the good part.
Double Identity is about a twelve year old girl, Bethany Cole, who got dropped off at aunt's house that she never knew existed, Myrlie. She noticed that things were weird a log time ago when her parents did and gave her everything that she wanted, and that her mom cried almost all the time. One night while she is staying at Myrlie's house the phone rings and Bethany picks it up. Her mom is on the other end she isn't crying. Bethany thinks that her mom is doing better. But when her mom starts talking to her instead of calling her Bethany she calls her Elizabeth, and when ever she tries to tell her that it's Bethany her mom just laughs and says be serious Elizabeth.She heard that name come up few times in her dad and Myrlie's conversation. But she never thought that her parents would bring it up with her that way.
Your Mother Was A Neanderthal is a great book because it is back in the stone age. It is funny when Mr. Hoot was trying to pull the secret lever. I do not want to stop reading. I only have 5 pages and I will be done. Then I will be starting a book called Wood Song.
The book I'm reading is Time Warp trio Your Mother was a Neanderthal. Sam,Fred,and Joe are trying to get Nat-Li out of behind a rock. The rock is blocking the entrance to the cave. The rock is blocking the entrance to the cave. Sam has the cave men help get Nat-Li out of behind the rock. Joe comes up with a great idea and has Fred and Sam get a log and a fulcrum to get Nat-Li out. But it never worked so now they have to come up with another plan to get Nat-Li out of the cave.
Stargirl is the book that I am reading. It is about a girl named Stargirl. She used to be home schooled and now is going to a public high school. She knows that she doesn't fit in with everyone else and she doesn't want to change but her boyfriend Leo thinks she needs to fit in with everyone else or know one will like her.
I would recommend this book to anyone! It's the type of book you never want to put down. You want to keep reading and reading and you have to force your self to put it down. I'm so glad that I picked up this book.I would love to read more of this authors books.
When I'm reading Stargirl I can picture the setting and the people. Sometimes its like I'm there with the characters. I understand most of the words on the page. I also understand what the book is about.
I hope you will at lest think about reading Stargirl . It is by far the best book that I have read!!
Brian's Winter is a really good book. It was recommended by a friend Sierra Wolfe. She said it was a good book so I tried it out. I like it when people recommend books to me because they know what books I'm interested in. I thought Brian's Winterwas a really good book like Sierra said.
I liked this book because it was one of those books that you do not want to put down after reading it in SSR. It's like that because it is a really interesting book to read. The reason that is there are many different kinds of questions in this book and also a lot of drama. This book is also a good action book.
My book Kidnapped is a fairly easy book to read. Kidnapped is a good book to read because the words are normally pretty easy to read. Kidnapped doesn't have lots of hard words. My book has about maybe twenty hard words in the whole book that is hard to read. When books like Kidnapped has easy words to read it makes the book so that you can understand it more and enjoy it more. Also if a book is easy to read it makes the book go faster.
My book Kidnapped was recommended by Hannah Caudill. I like when people recommend books because I know that if the the person who recommended the book liked it, odds are I'll like the book. I also like when people recommend books because the person tells you a little more than just what the blurb saids. When friends recommend book most of the time they are good because your friends know what you are interested in. Recommended books are the best.
The book I'm reading is Define Normal . It's a great action packed book. Once you pick it up you'll never want to put it down. When you read it makes you feel like your in the book. Page by page the characters express so much feeling to each other. As I read I could come up with a question for each page. It's a great book.
My book is called Heart Beat . It is a sad book. A funny book to but I already told you about the funny part. Now I am going to tell you about the sad part. 1)His grandma had died and now his grandpa moved in with Max and his mom.
I think your "blog idea" for the students is great. I am also very pleased by the list of questions to use after reading a book. I will use the list in the future when talking to Kennedy about her most recent read. I look forward to seeing more new ideas this year.
I remeber that book from last year. It was a really good book.
The book I'm reading now is called "The Football Hero" written by Tim Green. I relate to all of the listings accept for 6,7,8, and 9. Not 6 because I found it myself and 7 because I already know about football and 8 because this is the first time I've read a book by this author and 9 because it does not have a series.
