INTO THE LAND OF THE UNICORNS, reviewed by Jonah.P

My book Into the Land of the Unicorns was fantastically exciting.  Cara, the main character, is very brave through her journey. She even jumped off the church roof to get to the Luster.  Two perfect examples of make believe in this book are that there are dragons and unicorns. There is a lot of make believe  in this story.  If you like reading really exciting fantasy books, then you will like this one.

Tonight on the great Titanic,rieviewed by Gabriella N

This story is about Titanic trouble with Jack and  Annie.  Jack and Annie are brother and sister and they go on exiting adventures!  The  magic tree  house brings them on the great Titanic.  Jack and Annie helped  Luicy  and  her  little brother  William and told them that they have hit an ice burg and to put their coats on.  If you like   Titanic books like me, this is a great book for you!!!     

Abigail The Breeze Fairy , reviewed by Abigail W.

This story was suspenseful because I didn’t know if the goblin was going to capture the girls.  In this story, the main character is Abigail the Breeze Fairy.  She was very brave to get the goblin and then to get the magic feather from him.  In this fantasy story, the two girls Kirsty and Rachel could turn into fairies, and then they could fly. There were big goblins.  If you like stories about fairies and magic, then you would like this book.

Attack of the Vampire Weenies, reviewed by: Maddie F

This book is both frightening and hilarious.  Some stories cracked me up, and some scared me.  This book is made of many stories and characters that you will love.  In a story called "Chirp", there is a boy that whenever he said "chirp" he turned into a bird and flew away for a few seconds.  He became best friends with a girl that whenever she said "meow" she turned into a cat!  I would recommend this book to people that don't get scared easily and who have a sense of humor.

A Good Night For Ghosts, reviewed by Emily F.

A Good Night For Ghosts is a very scary book.  Jack and Annie go on adventures in history with a different mission each time.  Jack and Annie had a magic trumpet that protected them when they were in an old shop with ten evil ghosts.  I would recommend this book to people who like scary books.

A Good Night for Ghost, reviewed by Kaila M.

A descriptive adjective for Good Night for Ghost is that it was good because it taught me how Louis Armstrong became famous. A sentence that describes the main character is that Louis doesn't want to play music, but Jack and Annie have to put him on the right track. They encourage him. An example of make believe is that there's magic in the story. Jack and Annie travel to the past. Another example is that a tree house can't spin. I give this a good recommendaton because if you like fantasy books it would be good for you to read.

Katie Kazoo Switcheroo; No Bones About It, reviewed by Rhiannon Z.

Katie Kazoo Switcheroo is an exciting book series about a girl who makes a wish on a shooting star.  Katie is a girl who gets other kids in trouble.  This book is a fantasy because you can’t switch bodies with another person. It is make believe to wish on a shooting and have your wish come true.  I recommend this book to kids who like crazy stories that make you laugh.

Mummies in the Morning, Joshua R

Mummies in the Morning was a fun and exciting story.It made me think of ancient Egyptian times.Jack and Annie had exciting imaginations.They were scared a lot, but always tried to find a way out.They made believe that mummies come back to life, and that ghosts ride off in ships on the sand.I think Mummies in the Morning is an adventurous book.

Freedoms Wings , reviewed by Sahim H.

Freedoms Wings is a helpful book because it tells about how a slave had to work so hard. The time this book took place was 1857 to 1858. One of the problems the main character needed to solve was how to go to Canada and have freedom with his family. I recommend this book because it tells me about a boy that's a slave with his parents and trying to get his freedom at Canada.

Magic Tree House: A Ghost Tale for Christmas Time, reviewed by Cole L.

A Ghost Tale for Christmas Time is a surprising book. Jack and Annie are smart kids and they have to help Charles Dickens so he will keep writing. One thing that is make believe in the story is a Magic Tree House where you can point to books and say"I wish we could go there" and you appear there. I recommend this book to people who like Magic Tree House books and Christmas books.

Day of the Dragon King, reviewed by Matthew M.

This book is full of adventure. Jack and Annie go on a mission to get the Dragon King.Jack and Annie are brave. They fought soldiers to get to where the Dragon King was. The book is make believe but the mission seems real and exciting. I would recommend this book to people because
it is really cool!

Stanley's Christmas Adventure,reviewed by:Kaylie B.

This book is a very special book because I have never read or seen one little boy change an adults life, like this book. The main character is Stanley. Stanley is a life changing and amazing boy. This book is make believe because a boy can't be flat. If he was, he would break all of his bones and there would not be anything in his body. I recommend this book to people who like kind and caring people. Also, people who believe in Santa.

Stanly And The Magic Lamp, reviewed by Rachel W.

My book Stanly And The Magic Lamp is funny and it's a fun book to read. The main characters are Stanly, Arther, and the genie. Stanly is the one who asked for wishes when he rubbed a lamp and found the genie. One of the reasons the book is make belive is because there is no such thing as genie's and you cant fly either. I recommend this book to kids of all ages and kids who like silly books.

Horrible Harry and the Purple People, reviewed by Jacob.A

I like this book because I like monsters and purple, and they had purple monsters in this book. Harry is a boy who sees purple people. The rest of his class thinks he is crazy because they can't see them. Harry needs to overcome this problem. He can't really see purple people. If you like monsters you should read this book!

The Fabled Fourth Graders of Aesop Elementary School, reviewed by Caleb, Kareena, Jake, Maya, Ceris, Zaniyah, Madyson, and Rohan.

The Fabled Fourth Graders is a silly and creative book. If you know Aesop's Fables, the book will make sense and be funny. Mr. Jupiter, the teacher, brings his worldwide adventures to his fourth grade students. He is always prepared for his students foolishness. Even though everything in the story could happen, we are certain the events are too crazy to come about. We recommend this unusual book to kids who like to learn while having fun.

Punished!, reviewed by Devyn H., Michaelia B., Rachel S., William S., Donovan Y., Adeline C., Cole L., and Keliese D.

Punished is a silly, mysterious and educational book. Logan gets punished for misbehaving, but it is not the kind of punished you might think of. Logan likes to do things at the last minute, but he must be clever to find a cure for his punishment. During his quest, he needs to use a magical camera, rubber band, and a bag to complete his tasks. We recommend this imaginative story to kids who like to get a laugh while they are learning.

Summer of the Sea Serpent, reviewed by Devin G

I think Summer of the Sea Serpent is an suspenseful book to read. Jack is the main character. He solves all the clues in the book. One example of make believe in the story was a giant queen spider that was huge. I think this book is an suspenseful book to read becuase there is a giant spider in it.

In The Ice Caves of Krog, reviewed by Adeline C.

In The Ice Caves of Krog is a funny book. Eric always perseveres because he never gives up on trying to defeat Krog. This book is make believe because Eric has magical powers and the world of Droon is very magical. If you like stories about magical worlds you should read this book.

Friends for Never, reviewed by Keliese D.

Friends for Never is an entertaining book because of all the twist and turns. Katie is an imaginative girl because of all the solutions she has to solve her problems. One example of make believe in this story is that Katie turns into Suzanne right before Suzanne's fashion show. My recommendation for Friends for Never is that if you love books when almost nothing inside could be true, try to read this book.
