I'm not a Supermouse! By Chantika B

I'm Not A Supermouse!

By Geronimo Stilton

ISBN 9780545103756

(Ages 7-11) Recommend

This book is one of the many Geronimo Stilton books. The series has many books in it, this book is number 43 in the series.

When I picked it up in the library for the first time and read the first few sentences, my mind was already imagining the adventure that Geronimo Stilton was on. Some of the main characters in the book are Geronimo Stilton, Thea, Trap, Benjamin and Bruce Hyena. This book has 108 pages.

This book is about Geronimo and Bruce going on a big adventure around the wold. Along the way, Geronimo gets himself in to lots of trouble.

Along the way Geronimo has to do things he would rather not do. Geronimo gets him self into life threatening situations and Bruce has to help him get out of them.

In one of the places Geronimo needs a Jungle Survival Kit so he doesn't get killed or hurt.
               
Near the end something horrible happens to new mouse city and Geronimo has to help everyone out.

This is a really good book and I think you should read it.

The Secret of the Fortune Wookie by Kawa A

Title:The Secret of the Fortune Wookie

Author:Tom Angleberger

ISBN:978-1-4197-0517-5

Tom Angleberger has made five extraordinary books about this series. These books have a lot of detail. This book is about a boy called Dwight has to change schools because Origami Yoda and his friend Tommy are trying to make him come back. This book gives you an opportunity to imagine what they're saying.

Can Tommy save his best friend Dwight and Origami Yoda from going to Tippet High and make sure he doesn't get suspended for a year again? Can everything go back to normal? There might be a chance if you read this book. You might actually find out what happens and if they go back to normal will something else happen?

This would be a great book to read at night because it feels like you're in the place when you read the words. It's a really awesome book, the best I've read in the origami series. It even has an extra origami instruction inside.

I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have if you read it.

Pages-390

The main character is Ruby Redfort. Ruby Redfort was first introduced in Lauren Child's three award winning, best selling Clarice Bean novels. Since then, she has got many letters asking her for a Ruby Redfort series and here it is now.

She gets recognized for her smartness in an exam by a secret agency, a very secret agency, Spectrum.  She is given codes to crack. She can keep secrets? Right?

Big Nate Flips Out is a great book. It is about a boy who tries to get out of being a girls partner for a test. The great thing is as well, there are many more books about Big Nate that you will love.

He is in a school sport team competing with year 6's, he's partnered up with the same girl again and she's not a sport person, will he win the trophy for his team? Or will he lose? Read to find out more!!!   

Big Nate flips out has 224  pages in it, which is not much. There are no hard words in it and is easy to read. It is very entertaining, especially with the trouble he has with his teachers. This book is good for preteens.

I highly recommend this book. It should be on every library shelf.                                                  


The Cat on the Mat is Flat by Owen .C


The Cat on the Mat is Flat

 Author: Andy Griffiths

Illustrator: Terry Denton

ISBN-9780312535841

Ages:6-10 (Recommended)


The book was first published in 2006. The author Andy Griffiths writes funny books and this book especially is one of the funniest's of them all. I really like this book because of the silly parts of the book.

"The cat sat on the mat" repeats, it's easy to read it because of the short period of chapters and little stories.
 There is a rat with a bat and a very flat cat also a frog on a jet rocket-log and a snack-stealing yak-in-a-sack called Jack also a duck with a truck that sucks up muck All these and lots more can be found in this book.

The Cat jumped off the mat and chased the rat around and around the mat, the rat didn't like being chased by the cat for 3 laps, the rat said "That's enough of that and got a BASEBALL BAT. Then the rat started to chase the cat around the mat then cat got hit by the baseball bat, now the cat is FLAT!

This book is very exciting to read because of its Entertainment and its comedy. That's why I recommend this book for you.




Song For A Scarlet Runner By Tansy G


Song For A Scarlet Runner

By Julie Hunt

ISBN-978-1-74331-358-9

(Ages 10 +) Recommendation 

Song For A Scarlet Runner is about a young girl named Peat who lives with  her sister Marlie. They live out of  town in a place where the cows live. One day Peat is out in the paddock with the cows, when one of the calves run off. Peat follows him up to the gap. The gap is a big drop that has a small thin  bridge going across it. She notices something odd. The calf was behaving himself with a complete stranger.

Peat ends up in the marshes where she gets caught in a trap. She thinks she's been caught by the swamp hags,(terrible old lady's who capture children and make medicine out of them)when they're actually swamp aunties, (who are healers)and give Peat a warm welcome.

Song For A Scarlet Runner is a mysterious and adventurous book with lots of fun and scary surprises along the way. It has exactly 315 pages of fun filled excitement with lots of twists and turns along the way. She's safe and sound at home one day and on the run the next.

This is by far the best book I have ever read and I would definitely read it again,(which is not a normal thing I would do) so go ahead and give it a try I guarantee you will like it!!

I highly recommend this book to people who like a good page turner or twist. Just because it doesn't look like much on the outside, doesn't mean it's not interesting. So it just goes to show you really can't judge a book by its cover!
