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).
Jaelyn R., Grade 3

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.

I connected to this book because I have never had rice before but I tried it just like Sam did with his green eggs and ham. ~Rayne B., Grade 2

I like this book because its funny and my connection is I have tried green eggs and ham before when I was in Miss Taylor's class in kindergarten and I liked it. I also like that the book has lots of rhymes.  ~Jasmine A., Grade 2

I predict the ninjas will fight the Grundle and defeat him. What do you think will happen? Read Ninjango: The Green Ninja to find out.
Gary C., Grade 3

Ever After High: The Storybook of Legends

I just finished reading Forever After High: The Story Book of Legends written by Shannon Hale. It is about the children of people from fairytales (Evil Queen, Prince Charming, Snow White, etc...) The Evil Queens daughter, Raven Queen, wanted to write her own legend instead of following the Evil Queens but she did not know that it could also affect the daughter of Snow White, Apple White's story.

If you are wondering what book to read next, check out what Aubrey, Paige, Chloe, and Lucy had to say about their books.

This week I am reading Magic Tree House #20: Dingoes at Dinnertime. Jack and Annie found a little joey (which is a baby kangaroo), and they wanted to find the joey's mommy. When Jack and Annie try to find his mommy, they discovered a wildfire. Then they went back to the spot they found the joey. They heard a slapping noise, and it was the mommy! We have three chapters to go yet!

Aubrey D. Grade 2

I am reading a Doc McStuffins: Bubble Trouble. It is about three friends who were playing with bubbles. A girl named Alma refills up the bubble maker. When they turn it on, the bubbles don't come out. My favorite thing about this book is that they can fix the bubble maker, because they show Alma what to use and what not to use.

Paige H. Grade 3 

I just finished the book Bunnicula: A Rabbit Tale of Mystery. It was AWESOME. In the book a family brought home a bunny that had glowing red eyes and fangs! There was a cat named Chester and Chester thought the bunny was a vampire. I would love to have a pet like Bunnicula!

Chloe M. Grade 4

I am reading The Last Hope, which is in the WARRIORS series. My favorite character is Firestar, because the other characters trust him. Firestar is also brave and strong. He won't do something he doesn't agree with. That is why he is my favorite character.

Week 6 Challenge 2015

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

If you are wondering what book to read next, here are a few suggestions from Gavin, Hunter, and Kailee, and Kelsea.

Check out this video about the rainforest!

I read Magic Tree House Fact Tracker: Rain Forests. I learned about plants and animals that live in rain forests. There are very big plants in the rain forest, and some are even bigger than bicycle tires! There are animals in the rain forests that haven't even been discovered or named yet! Rain forests are being destroyed by people and animals are becoming endangered. Rain forests give us a bunch of stuff that help us live and stay alive like food, medicine, and clean air. 

In Magic Tree House: Afternoon in the Amazon, Jack and Annie go to the rain forest in the present day, but if the rain forests become extinct the author will have to change the book so Jack and Annie have to go back in time to see the rain forest. The most important thing I learned from these books is that we need to protect and save our rain forests!

Gavin T. Grade 2

Here Comes the Strikeout by Leonard Kessler

I am reading Here Comes the Strikeout. In the book Bobby strikes out and his friend helps him out by teaching him how to hit the ball.

Hunter D. Grade 3

Owl Diaries: Eva's Treetop Festival by Rebecca Elliott

In Owl Diaries: Eva's Treetop Festival Eva wanted to put together a festival but she needs to ask for help from her friends. Asking for help is something that she does not like to do. Will Eva get help so she can put on the Festival? I really like the book because it teaches you that there's nothing wrong about asking for help.  

Kailee F. Grade 4 

Starring Jules (As Herself) by Beth Ain

So far in Starring Jules, the movie that Jules is in got postponed and they have to wait to start filming the movie. The movie was postponed because the main lead got something in his eye.
