Junior Fiction Reviews

This book was such a fun read! I haven't read a junior fiction novel in a while and so it was refreshing to read something different. Although this book is aimed for younger readers, it has a wonderful message for all ages. I think Ivan and Bob have the best friendship. I am definitely going back to check out the rest of the series!

This book is so action packed and exciting! I really enjoyed the fast paced writing, the way the characters grew, and the fantastic mythology!

I loved how this book has a fun and random story plot line that makes it so fun to read. It makes it a great book for when you want to feel happy by the little things this book shares. And it is so fun to read with any sibling who loves ladybugs as much as you do! Overall, this book just has a heart - felt warm feeling for helping anyone realize how amazing the small things in our world make our world so special!

This book is about three children who have been raised by wolves, and the teacher who helps them learn how to be children. It's a fun mystery, and there are 6 books in the series.

I thought this book was really fun, even though I don't know a whole lot about Star Wars. The book introduces Dwight, who is the weirdest kid in middle school. He shows up at school one day with an origami Yoda finger puppet. Origami Yoda starts giving advice to students with various problems. Although the advice is usually pretty odd, the advice always seems to work. The big question is whether the advice is coming from Dwight, or whether Origami Yoda has a mind of his own... This book is available on Libby as an eBook and an audiobook.

I first read this as an audiobook, narrated by LeVar Burton from Reading Rainbow, on my pink mp3 player when I was little. I loved the way that Kenny described his family, “the weird Watsons”, and told funny stories about them. The writing was really genuine and entertaining. I recently listened to the book again, and it was a different experience. I noticed more of the historical context, and I understood the characters differently. I think the author shows them perfectly and realistically, especially from a child development standpoint. Reading about Joetta, Kenny, and Byron is like moving through the phases of my own life.

Bradley Chalkers is a bully and nobody likes him. Then, his school hires Carla, a counselor who gives him a chance and likes him no matter what he does. I love this book because the author wrote it very well, and he lets the reader see inside Bradley’s thoughts. He somehow makes the reader love Bradley the way Carla does.

It has magic, suspense and a little bit of romance.

It's meant for slightly younger or less experienced readers, but it still transported me to a different world where I got to see a new spin on an old story. I loved it.

I like books about students and teachers. This book is about a kid who turns a boring class into a fun one! Like all books by Gordon Korman, this is a fun one to read.

It is a fun mystery with a whole bunch of twists! A book that keeps you on your toes!

It's fantasy and adventurous and I like that.

It is such a fun book!  It has pirates, mermaids, water people and a cute little adventurous girl who visits a "new land". I read it to my granddaughter and she wouldn't let me stop at the chapters.

Queen Coral's (Queen of the sea wings and Tsunami's mom) first daughter Orca uses her powers to make a statue kill all of Coral's daughters and Tsunami protected Aulket from being killed.

I like these books because they are about mysteries.

I like this book series because it has dragons, fantasy and adventures.

An excellent reader and one of our Favorite C. S. Lewis Books.

It's spirit week at East High and everyone is excited. There will be dress-up days, a pep rally and finally the crowning of spirit week King and Queen. My favorite part is when they shout, "Go Wildcats!"
