“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!

Guess what book I read by Mo Willems. Knuffle Bunny! The main characters are Trixie, Mom, Dad, and, of course, Knuffle Bunny! The book takes place at the house, the cleaners, park, and neighborhood. Trixie’s bunny, called Knuffle Bunny, gets washed at the laundry mat. The book has a lot of funny pictures! Mo Willems has also written and illustrated Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus, another interesting book. Knuffle Bunny is a very good children’s book because it has easy words and short pages.
This fantasy book is very funny! Just think, this very good book is recommended to you so read Knuffle Bunnyby Mo Willems. (Read it page by page, too!) For more info, don’t go on your computer and look for www.readKnuffleBunnyfaster.org. That won’t help. I already tried! All you have to do is read Knuffle Bunnyat our school library. But if you can’t wait, buy it at our school bookstore. I don’t know if it will be there, so bring money just in case it’s there! Knuffle Bunny is a very strong character because all the pictures have Knuffle Bunny in them!
