The Cricket in Times Square

The Cricket in Times Square

By George Selden

When Chester Cricket lands in New York, he has no idea what's going on or how he got there and is scared out of his wits. Then, a boy named Mario finds him and takes him to his newsstand where his parents agree with Mario to keep it. When they leave Tucker, a city mouse, comes to visit the cricket. Chester tells him his story and they have some meatloaf together. This book is very funny, entertaining and inspiring and tells us that fame isn't everything.

The Wizard of Oz

By L. Frank Baum

I actually listened to this book as an audiobook but I really enjoyed it! I usually don't enjoy classics but I found this was so easy to understand, and the plot was really fun. I thought it was cool to finally know how the wizard of oz ended and overall I really enjoyed it.

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

By Douglas Adams

I really liked this book, the sequel to The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Although I almost felt it could have been two separate books. None the less, it was funny and creative especially when they get to the restaurant... The end really makes you want to read the next book in the series and is really suspenseful It can be slightly confusing at a few spots but overall it was a great book.

Prisoner B-3087

Prisoner B-3087

By Alan Gratz, Ruth Gruener, Jack Gruener

This book Prisoner B-3087 is an amazing book with full of determination! This book is based on a true story! This book can let you realised that if you never give up then even you encounter impossibles situations eventually you will overcome it. From this story I learned about life lesson, your life might be miserable and had no hope but if you never give up and has a strong mind at the end you will succeed. This book really touched my heart,this book is basically about a boy named Yanke, he is a Jewish, at that time the Nazis have control most of Europe . Everything he have and everyone he love is taken away from him. Yanke himself has became a prisoner and he has a number (B-3087) tattooed on his wrist. Yanke trying to get his family out of the concentration camp and also get him self out of the living hell, because in the concentration camp he is destiny to face to death by anytime. He is trying to survive thought the concentration camp. I personally think this book brings me and teaches me and also help me understand same important lessons in my personal life, I am struggling on my grade, because I didn't have the mind of determination, I am kind of giving up, but from this book I've seen this whole thing differently and make my mind to do the impossible to improve myself. I would say this story have clearly stated the struggles of the people to survive in the concentration camp, I can feel like I am in the concentration camp and have the a big problem to be resolved.I need the determination and strength to overcome my problems instead of escaping from them. The book is writhed in a very special way with advance word choice, the content of the book, the story structure of the whole story and with the simple sentences to bring and shows out the whole idea of this book. I recommend this book for 6th to 8th graders!
