ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is called The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. It is about a china (toy) rabbit named Edward Tulane who begins his life with a girl named Abilene who loves him dearly. The problem is that they are separated, and Edward finds himself in many different situations, with many different people, none of whom love him like Abilene did. It's a beautiful story about hope and love and loss and it's one of the few books that I've read several times. I love this book because it makes me feel just about every feeling - happiness, sorrow, fear, joy - and even some feelings I can't really name. If you haven't read it yet, I hope you do!
I have a series of favorite books its the Matt Christopher book cause there all about sports and my favorite book by him that i've read is ice magic cause its all about hockey and hockey is my favorite sport but i havent finished it yet but its my favorite book so far.

Deletemy favorite book is probably mathlete v.s athlete. Its about twins one of the twins is an athlete the other one is the mathlete. He is supposed to be just that but now they have a new coach and he wants him on the team because of his height.the main character are boys. The problem in the book is that the athlete is not happy about that.I love the book so much because its fun to read
ReplyDeleteKourtney, I loved "Mathlete vs. Athlete" too! The characters feel like they could go to Fisher Mitchell School, don't they? Did you know that it is the first book in a series, and there are two others? They are called "Double Dribble" and "Time Out."
Deletehi its Layla ... my favorite book is also The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane! Well I guess I don't have to explain the story. bye!
ReplyDeleteWell, what do you know! I'm so happy that you share my love for Edward Tulane. Have you read any other Kate Dicamillo books? If you haven't read The Tiger Rising yet, you should! It is amazing (like all of her books).

Deleteno I have not read them all
Deletebut I agree that Dairy of a Wimpy kid should be continued
My favorite book (book series) is creepypastas i will tell you one eyeless jack is the title it is about a man who sees some strange things ok lets get to the story a man wakes up to see another man standing over him he has a blue mask a gray hoodie and no eyes just empty black sockets with black goo in them he snaps a picture with his camera and the figure leaves he feels a pain in his chest to realize his kidney is missing where it was it was stitched shut ad he sees his half eaten kidney on the floor he go's back to sleep and wakes up to see his dead brother on the floor he run out of the house with his camera
ReplyDeleteWow, interesting! I haven't read any CreepyPasta books. It sounds like they are scary! I am not a huge fan of horror stories (I get bad dreams), but I do appreciate lots of action. Do you like other horror stories, or just CreepyPasta?
DeleteMy favorite book (book series.) Is fruits basket! It is a series of anime books. The main character(s) are: Yuki, Toruo and thats all I remember about the characters names. Now on to the story, in it Toruo was carrying a fruit basket and she wound up at a house, it was a pretty house too. In another part (or always almost) Yuki and his 2 brothers and dad turn into animals not the same animals they all have there own. the dad turns into a dog, Yuki turns into a rat, and 1 brother turns into a cat and the other brother turns into a rabbit. Its a great series of books they are really fun to read they always have twists turns and always funny parts ! little bit of sadness. But other than that its very good. there are 5 or 6 books in all?(I think). It takes place in japan. The books just brighten me up inside it is a mixture of happiness, sorrow and exited.
ReplyDeleteRiley, I have never read Fruits Basket books, but I enjoy anime very much, and your description convinced me I should give this series a try. I especially like the way you wrote that the books brighten you up, giving you a "mixture of happiness, sorrow and excited." My favorite books are those that make me feel all those things!
DeleteWARNING! WARNING! MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS! BEWARE!!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book is Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows. It's about when Harry, Ron and Hermione go on a search for horcruxes, so they can defeat the Dark Lord Voldermort. But when there comes a choice between the hallows and horcuxes, they have to choose defense or offense. Will they try to prevent Voldermort from getting the hallows and becoming more powerful? Or try to find horcruxes so they can kill him? Many other conflics come in their way, and they try to figure out the puzzle Dumbledore has left. It's adventure, fantasy, friendship, love, loss, and mystery. I love it more than any other book because it's so many things, and very intense. I dont think I would like it as much if sombody else wrote it, J.K. Rowling is SUCH a great author. It's a beautiful story, and I HIGHLY reccomend it.
Elizabeth, thank you for the spoiler alert - that is very considerate of you! Of course I love Harry Potter too. How can you not love Harry Potter? Have you read the whole series?
Deletemy favorite book is harry potter and the sorrserers stone the problem is that voldemort trys to take over but harry wins

ReplyDeleteMatt, I am so happy to see that Wonder is your favorite book! I LOVE that book (and you know I really love it because I wrote that in all caps).

He (Dub,) goes to Fossil Glen with her to find the ghost, and there class goes with them, but when Allie is chasing after her teacher's dog, the murder of the ghost who was haunting Allie tries to murder her, he falls of a cliff to his death.

ReplyDeleteWhen Allie is chasing her teacher's dog in the woods of Fossil Glen, the person who killed Lucy is in the same woods.
But as he is chasing Allie, he falls of the cliff near the edge.
And in the end Allie becomes a hero.

Andrew, I haven't read Ghost Magnet, but now I am curious. What is it about? Why do you like it so much?
DeleteI Liked Diary of a Wimpy Kid #6 . It was sooo funny. Greg thought he was going to a hotel and ended up in a cabin. He ran out of money at the amusement park. To find out more about this story you will have to read it yourself.
ReplyDeleteRussell, I like the way you ended your post with "to find out more about this story you will have to read it yourself." That will definitely make those who haven't read it want to! I enjoy the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series too. Have you read all the books in the series?
