HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Oh my gosh! It's Halloween! I love Halloween for so many reasons!! I don't even know where to start! I'm kind of surprised that this year (of 2015) Halloween is falling on a Saturday.
  I'm exited for tonight because I get to go "Trick or Treating" (well what do you expect? I'm only 9!). Tonight I'm going to go Trick or Treating with my Cousins! Me and 1 of my cousins (possibly 2) are going to be (sorta) matching! I'm going to be a Gryffindor witch (from, you know, Harry Potter) the 1 cousin who is definitely going to (sorta) match me is going to be a Ravenclaw witch and the 1 who might (sorta) match me is someone you already know, Twenty One might be a Slitheren witch. My little bro is going to be a pirate.
  Another cool thing about are having his birthday party tomorrow(!),  then again it is also my birthday party too, but that's a story for another day (probably tomorrow).
  So that's why I love Halloween.

My Brothers Birthday Is Today!! + I am scared

  Hi, I wanted to say that it's my brothers birthday!! In case you don't know who my brother is (which you should because he's mentioned in my "About Me") his name is Speed Boy and today he turned 4!
  I feel so sorry for him! I don't know if you know this but today we almost got hit by a tornado(!) and all the bridges are flooded!! Also, school got canceled and we had to come home.
  OH MY GOSH!! I am so scared we are on a tornado watch and at my school (before it got canceled) we basically did a tornado drill except it wasn't a drill! All I could think was to pray so this is what I prayed, "God, I'm so scared, for me and my family!! Please let Mommy, Daddy and Speed Boy be okay! I want my Mommy!
  After the whole tornado drill thing we did regular school for about 2 more hours before they said that school was canceled and we all had to go home. They said we had to go home then partly because the buses wouldn't run in the weather and partly because only half the school showed up anyway.  
  So that's my story so far today.

                                 Bye Sincerely Dani 

                                        

Bad Kitty vs Uncle Murray the Uproar at the Front Door


Title: Bad Kitty vs Uncle Murray the Uproar at the Front Door

Author: Nick Bruel

Summary:
Kitty's owners are taking a week off and leaving Kitty and Puppy at home. So who's going to watch them? Good ol' Uncle Murray, star of the Fun Facts feature of previous Kitty books―the guy you thought knew everything about cats. Think again! It isn't long before Uncle Murray is driven to near madness by shenanigans of epic proportions.

My Review:
  Good ol' Uncle Murray still has a lot to learn about cats, like not to use them as pillows or dish rags* heh heh*. Dude if your going to pet sit a cat you really should know.
  I liked this book, it was funny, has wit, and has Good ol' Uncle Murray as not just some random cat fact guy.
  You should get this book.

My Rating:
(Though it had some violence) 5 stars

Title: Bad Kitty Gets a Bath Novel 1

Author: Nick Bruel 

Summary:
 Pet owners beware!
Bad Kitty really needs a bath, and she is forced to take one in this hysterical new illustrated how-to for young readers. The following are some items you will need for Kitty's bath: one bathtub, plenty of water, dry towels, a suit of armor, a letter to your loved ones, clean underwear (because stressful situations can cause "accidents"), an ambulance in your driveway with the engine running, and, oh, yeah, you'll also need Kitty . . . but good luck with that! Kitty is at her worst in this riotous how-to guide filled with bad smells, cautionary tales of horror, and hopefully by the end . . . some soap.

My Review:
This book is HILARIOUS!!!!! This graphic novel tells of Bad Kitty taking a Bath. Uh-oh I have a cat but not a cat shaped bathrobe! "Gulp"!

Judy Moody was in a Mood Book 1 Review


Title: Judy Moody was in a Mood Book 1

Author:  Megan McDonald

Summary: 
"Judy Moody was in a mood. Not a good mood. A bad mood. A mad-faced mood."

To start, Judy Moody doesn't have high hopes for third grade. Her new desk won't have an armadillo sticker with her name on it. Her new classroom will not have a porcupine named Roger. And with her luck, she'll get stuck sitting in the first row, where Mr. Todd will notice every time she tries to pass a note to her best friend, Rocky. An aspiring doctor, Judy does have a little brother who comes in handy for practicing medicine, a cool new pet, and a huge Band-Aid collection. 


My Review: 
I liked this book. It really showed the moods of this 3rd grade girl that (in her eyes) has a lot of problems. I did like this book, and I think 3rd graders will too.

Clarice Bean Spells Trouble Review


Title: Clarice Bean Spells Trouble

Author: Lauren Child

Summery:
Clarice Bean seems to be in nonstop trouble these days, almost as much as Karl Wrenbury, who is the naughtiest boy at school. If only she could be more like her favorite book character, Ruby Redfort, girl detective, who is very good at getting out of trouble. The problem is, Mrs. Wilberton is planning a spelling bee, and just thinking about it gives Clarice a stomachache. But when Karl Wrenbury has a family problem and gets into really big trouble, Clarice does something utterly unexpected, altruistically proving Ruby Redfort's maxim "Never let a good pal down."

My Review:
Lauren should be proud of her 2nd kids novel in the Clarice Bean series, Clarice Bean Spells Trouble. This book is funny and actually brings up some good grammar questions, like "why isn't you spelled U?" and "why isn't why spelled Y?", the world may never know. I LOVED THIS FREAKING BOOK!!!!!!

My Rating:
5 Stars

Ivy+Bean Book 1 Review

Title: Ivy+Bean Book 1

Author: Annie Barrows + Sophie Blackall

Summery:
The moment they saw each other, Bean and Ivy knew they wouldn't be friends. But when Bean plays a joke on her sister, Nancy, and has to hide quickly, Ivy comes to the rescue, proving that sometimes the best of friends are people never meant to like each other. Vibrant characters and lots of humor make this a charming and addictive introduction to Ivy and Bean.

My Review: 
I liked this book but I feel like its showing kids you can be bad without much consequence. Other than that it's a good book. I really liked how soft spoken Ivy is not just soft spoken, thats all I'm going to say. I want to know what you think, tell me in the comments.

They take him to Camp Jupiter and he is put to a quest by Ares, the god of war. Percy, Hazel, and Frank must go to Alaska and free the god of death, Thanatos.

The Lost Hero Reveiw



Title:The Lost Hero

Author: Rick Riordan

Summery:

Jason has a problem. He doesn't remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she's his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they're all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for "bad kids." What he did to end up here, Jason has no idea--except that everything seems very wrong.

Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he's in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn't recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on?

Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What's troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper's gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are all--including Leo--related to a god.
 


My Review:

Awesome!!!!! Rick is 1 of my favorite authors. I loved this book for multiple reasons,it was funny, it has everything a demigod would want. I couldn't put the book down. Also just a heads up, Piper is absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maximum Ride Review



Title: Maximum Ride the Angel Expiriment
Author: James Patterson

Summary:
In James Patterson's blockbuster series, fourteen-year-old Maximum Ride, better known as Max, knows what it's like to soar above the world. She and all the members of the "flock"--Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gasman and Angel--are just like ordinary kids--only they have wings and can fly. It may seem like a dream come true to some, but their lives can morph into a living nightmare at any time...like when Angel, the youngest member of the flock, is kidnapped and taken back to the "School" where she and the others were experimented on by a crew of wack jobs. Her friends brave a journey to blazing hot Death Valley, CA, to save Angel, but soon enough, they find themselves in yet another nightmare--this one involving fighting off the half-human, half-wolf "Erasers" in New York City. Whether in the treetops of Central Park or in the bowels of the Manhattan subway system, Max and her adopted family take the ride of their lives. Along the way Max discovers from her old friend and father-figure Jeb--now her betrayed and greatest enemy--that her purpose is save the world--but can she?

My Review:

Max and the Flock are simply hilarious. I ate up every word,sentence,  and chapter till the end. It had a good pace and whenever James Patterson said "these pages fly" he was right. It felt as if I couldn't put the book down. If you know a Middle Grade person or are one read and tell other people about it.

5 stars
