HEIDI

Heidi is a heart-warming, thrilling, sweet, cute, loving, and a VERY, VERY good story. I liked it so much and I’m sure if you read it you would like I too. It is about this 5 years old girl, Heidi. Her Parents died when she was one years old, and her aunty, Dete, started taking care of her since. But 4 years later when Heidi was only 5, it was the only chance for Dete to have a good job. So she planned for Heidi to live with her Grandfather on the BEAUTIFUL Mountains. Grandfather lived in a hut. And also who lived on the mountain in a different hut too, was Grandmother. But as Heidi lived on the mountains for at least 3 years, Grandfather had given more of a home, he has given her a life filled with love, warmth and care right on the mountain. But she needed to go to school, and this is where it changes…

DOGS DON'T TELL JOKES by LOUIS SACHAR

Meet Gary Boone, who is most likely to become a stand-up comedian (well at least he thinks so). He goes to school at Floyd Hicks Junior High School and currently is in the seventh grade (according to the book). He loves telling jokes, nearly everything he says is a joke and everyone calls him Goon, not the teachers obviously but he does tell them to.

Even though he tells jokes not many people laugh at them, only his dad, Angeline and her family. He was in the fifth grade when he met Angeline, she was 8 years old but put in the sixth grade because she was smart, thew smartest person in elementary school. She told him that he was the funniest person in the world, so to him it didn't matter if nobody laughed at his jokes. She moved though, to Manusec School in Nebraska where she learned astrophysics and nuclear chemistry. You still see more of her in the story.

He doesn't seem to be so popular since everyone doesn't play with him at recess and lunch. Although he tries to join in playing football, all he does is just hike the ball, nothing more.

But then an opportunity came along, a talent show to celebrate Floyd Hicks birthday. He was completely into it, the first to sign up but something goes wrong...he quits. Why? That's for you to find out.

Soon I will be invincible

This book is not like all those old superhero novels in the: Villain robs bank, Hero shows up and beats up Villain, Villain goes to jail for the 14th time style. No siree. This book actually puts you in the shoes of a Villain and a hero in the 21st century. No more masks and capes. The beginning of the book puts you in the villain Doctor Impossible's shoes and how he breaks from prison, then the next chapter puts you in the shoes of the newly formed cyborg Fatale as she recruits herself into the creation of the superhero team, the New Champions, and so on. This book is definately reccomended, 'cause its like a breath of fresh air from all those Marvel antiques like Spiderman and the Fantastic Four.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning thief by Rick Riordan.
The the story of an a boy who he thinks he was ordinary until he found out who he reall was in his biggest adventure ever.

This story is really good because we just finished our greek myth nad in this story includes all greek myths!!! Cool huh??? :D

Dogs don't tell jokes by Louis Sachar

Im not sure where the story gets its name from. 

But in the beginning, a boy called Gary W. Boone, tells jokes all time. He has always waned to be a standup comedian but everyone doubts him as they say his jokes aren't funny. They even call him 'Goon'. His hopes are  all up until he sees a poster for a Talent show. Gary signs up straight away. He is so keen on winning the talent show as the first prize will be $100. So Gary practices everyday at home instead of finishing homework. The night before the great Talent show, a girl called Angelina, a close friend of his, phones him up to say that she felt something bad was going to happen. Something VERY bad...

I would really recommend this book because its really humorous. the author is also Louis Sachar. This book is in the library too!

A.L.I.E.E.E.N

To me,there are four types of Graphic novel. The first one is an adaption of a book or a film. The second one is a retelling of a historical event. The third one is meant for humor and comedy. The last one is from different countries.(ie: Manga) However, this book is unlike any other graphic novel. It doesnt fit in into any of the groups. This book, as said by the author, comes from outer space. Don't believe me? Read the book! There are no words in this book, not any English words, that is. This book is in alien language. Don't belive me? Read it! For a book in an undecipherable language, there are not many that can explain the story with little or no words, even if it's not English.

This, is one of them. Never before have I read a book so bizzare in my life. These stories of the aliens are so weird, yet it makes you want to read more. It can get gory, but that is probably the only downside. I can't believe little alien kids read this!!

A book that thinks out of the box in illustrations, storyline and and plot, I liked it alot.

You would probably like it too.

animal farm 

this book is about animals rebelling against humans. Mr Jones (the owner of manor farm) and his men are very nasty to the animals so one day old Major ( a pig on the farm) calls all the animals together and tells them to rebel against Mr Jones. three days later Old Major dies and the animals get so fed up with Mr Jones that they attack him. He gets so scared he leaves the farm. the animals, very happy and excited then work together to build animal farm. at first there were seven commandments and he most important on read 'all animals are equal'. the pigs , who are very clever take over, the two main ones are Snowball and Napoleon. Napoleon then kicks Snowball out and tells the animals that he is secretly working with Mr Jones. Later on in the story many animals are found to be working with Snowball and they are killed. Clover, Boxer (horses) and old Benjamin (a donkey) are sad to see that what they had started out to do became a disaster. after a while the humans come back again and Boxer is badly wounded he then dies at a horse slaughter place, while Napoleon tells everyone he was actually in the hospital. Pigs started to move into the farmhouse, they started drinking alcohol, wearing human clothes, getting up later than all the animals but worst of all they were dealing with the humans. when most of the old animals had past away and there was only clover and Benjamin left they read the commandments again and it read 'all animals are equal,but animals are more equal than others'

animal farm is a great book and when it was written it was based on the communist party in Russia. characters such as Snowball and Napoleon were based on real life people.

Astronomy 365

This book shows all the wonderful activities that happen during the year, but to do with the solar system or the universe.
For example, how often does Comet Halley come across the night sky??

I got this book in canada but I think you guys can get it Elsewhere

Skullduggery Pleasant: Playing with fire

The story line is very predictable. Even the blurb said:"You know how it is: you think you save the world, and then another villain shows up with an indestuctible monster and starts breaking things." In this sequel, Valkyrie and Skullduggery capture criminals and start a quest to stop Baron Vengeous from bringing back the faceless ones. Featuring all new characters, and untold stories, this book may be predictable-but the content is very gripping! I can't wait for the third book to be in our library!!!
