Week 10 Challenge 2016

It's Week Ten of our Summer Reading Blog Challenge.  How is your reading going?

Are you wondering what to read during the last two weeks of our challenge?  Our bloggers have some great book suggestions to share with you.

I am reading a Judy Moody Predicts the Future. Judy's mom brought a cereal box. The cereal box had a mood ring as a prize. Judy had to eat seven bowls before the she got the mood ring. The ring also came with a small paper which had the instructions to explain the color and the moods. For example: purple is joyful on top of the world; dark blue is unhappy or sad; light blue is happy or glad; red is romantic and love. Every ten minutes she would look at the ring to see what mood she was in (it said purple purple purple all the time).

I read a book called The Hero Two Doors Down. This book is about a boy named Steve who loved baseball. His favorite team was the Brooklyn Dodgers. When Jackie Robinson moved to the team, he lived two houses down from Steve. He got to know Jackie really well. Steve got to know Jackie so well that for Steve's birthday Jackie got tickets so his whole class could watch a Dodgers game. When the Dodgers won the 1955 world series, he sent him a team autographed ball. If you like baseball I think you should read this book.

Week 9 Challenge 2016

It's Week Nine of our Summer Reading Blog Challenge.  How is your reading going?

Are you wondering what to read next? Read the recommendation that Kailee wrote.

Lego Elves: Quest of Keys

Emily Jones was in her grandmother's garden. When she went to a tree to sit down, she fell through it. She was very confused. Then she found fire, earth, wind, and water elves. They all explained to Emily the only way to get back home was to find four keys to open the portal again. Can she do it? You'll have to read Quest of Keys to find out.
