More Books That Are Good

Wabi Sabi  by Mark Reilstein

This book is about a cat that doesn't know the meaning of its name.   This book would be better if it took place in the jungle.  I would like to ask the author what will happen next because I don't understand the last part of the story.

The best part of this book was...it came with a CD and I got to listen to it on the computer.

Alec's Primer by Mildred Walter

A girl taught a boy named Alec how to read because he didn't know how.  But no one was supposed to teach slaves how to read.  If I were a character in this story I would want the boy and his family to be slave free.

The Haunted Castle on Hallows Eve by Mary Pope Osborne

My favorite part of this book was when Jack, Annie, and Teddy turned into ravens.  Because it would be fun to be a raven.  But it would be difficult because I would get sea sick flying at ten thousand feet.

Rodrick Rules by Jeff Kinney

I am reading another book by this author because... it super duper drives me nuts.  If I could ask the author a question, I would ask...how do you write your books so funny?  This book is really silly.

Listen to the Wind by Greg Mortensen

There were some poor children in Afghanistan who didn't have a school.  A man named Dr. Greg helped them build a school even though we are having a war there and there are bad guys there.  But these people were good guys.  This story would be different if the story was in Florida because in Florida every kid has a school.  

The author wrote this book to teach about other children in this world and for his friend Haji Ali.    This book made my mom cry.  I don't know why.  

I learned that for twelve dollars a kid there can go to school for a whole year and some kids in America give their pennies to Dr. Greg so he can build more schools.
