Justine jumped for this one

If you like monkeys and jumping on the bed, this is the book for you!  The book I am talking about is Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.  It is a fiction book.  The book is also a nursery rhyme book by Eileen Christelow.  I can give you the first sentence.  “It was bath time so five little monkey took a bath.”  That’s what caught my attention.  This book teaches children a lesson.  If you want to know what the lesson is, you will have to read this book.

Linda-Mae recommends nonfiction

“OMG!”  That’s what I would say if I saw the Titanic. I can see and read about the Titanic in Finding the Titanic.  Go on an adventure with Robert D. Ballard, known as the author, and see the Titanic now.  Read about the experience of a girl named Ruth Becer on her adventure on the Titanic and see the sadness of thousands of people who lost their love and kids!  If you think I am kidding, try reading it yourself!  Oh, and it’s not funny at all because tons of people lost their lives on that fateful day!  So is you want to read Finding the Titanic, check it out in the library!

Bailey recommends a fantasy

Do you like fantasy?  I do so I read Diary of a Worm by Doreen Cronin.  If you like other books by Doreen Cronin, you will like Diary of a Worm.  Worm and Spider are the main characters.  Worm and Spider are best friends and they each teach something to each other.  I like Worm’s house with all the tunnels.  Worm is always messy and very slow and Spider is neat and bolting fast.  If you want to read Diary of a Worm, you can get it in the library or purchase it at the book store.

Do not open this book yet, it’s not done…Sorry, I really get into my books.  Okay, let’s start.  Do Not Open This Book!  is about a pig who is writing a book.  It is supposed to be done, but it’s not. So don’t open it like I did or you will hear a mean story about yourself.  There will be a ferocious rat with sharp teeth and it looks like he’s going to snap your finger off when you turn the page! Wow, that was a mouthful.  Anyway,  the mud rolling creature wants you to go away right when you open the book.  So remember, knock first or he will throw a fit!  Guess what?  Are you ready to hear what I am so excited about?  Okay, here it goes.  OMG! Michaela Muntean is a fab author! But before you run for the book, get this—Pascal Lemaitre does pigtastic illustrations.  Now go read the book!  You can borrow it.  It is in my browsing box.  I will go get it.  But remember, know first or we will all have to hear him throw a fit.

Nathaniel’s novel is funny

Have you ever read a Roald Dahl book?  Want to read a great Roald Dahl book?  Roald Dahl created an amazing story called The BFG.  The BFG has one main character and a lot of supporting characters like Sophie, the Fleshlumpeater, the Bonecrusher, the Maid Masher, and the Man Hugger.  There is a huge bunch of giants that will eat humans, but the Big Friendly Giant [BFG] is a nice one.  The BFG captures and collects dreams.  The setting changes from in a city to Giant country to Dream country, but they are all in England.  In the city, Sophie is trying to get to sleep.  When the BFG snatches Sophie out of her bed, the BFG bolts with her to Giant Country!  Near the end, they go to England. 

Here are some [other] books you can read from him [Roald Dahl]: The Twits and The Witches.  His books are always entertaining!
