The Good, the Bad, and the Silly
Illustrated by Tom Bancroft and Rob Corley
Published by Scholastic
The genre is fiction. The theme is do the right thing the first time. In this story Cowboy Larry, Botch, and Sunburn Kid have to corral 40 cows from one ranch to another as fast as they can. Along the way Cowboy Larry has to choose between doing the good thing, the bad thing or the silly thing. I like this story because it tells us that you follow God rather than the crowd.

Arthur and the Scare-Your-Pants-Off Club
Illustrated by Marc Brown
Published by Marc Brown
The genre is fiction. The theme is to make sure of something before you do it. In this book Buster, Arthur, Sue Ellen, the Brain, and Francine try to keep a parents group called PAWS from taking the Scare-Your-Pants-Off books from the library. To do so they get as many people to sign a petition against PAWS. I like this book because it shows that you should do what you think is right after you think about it.

Twilight Series
Bella Swan is a teenage girl who lives with her father in Washington. When she meets Edward Cullen she fell in love, she knew something was different about him but she didn't care. She has a best friend named Jacob Black he was a handsome, strong, motivated character. She always knew Jacob had a little crush on her, but she didn't feel the same way. When Jacob meets Edward they go on bad terms, and they can't stand each other. Bella thinks it's because Edawrd is her boyfriend and Jacob likes her. Well, it's more to that than she thinks. Remember when I said that Edward and Jacob were both different? Well Edward's a vampire and Jacob's a werewolf. Sooner or later they override their differences, and finally come together, the werewolves and the vampires to defeat the Volturi to protect baby Renesmee. I didn't tell you that Edward and Bella had a baby. That's why the Volturi want her because she's part vampire part mortal. Isn't that a series closer?

In the beginning of the book we are introduced to Katniss Everdeen. Katniss Everdeen is a teenage hunter that hunts with Gale. When they are picking the tributes for the Hunger Games, and Prim Everdeen (Katniss's sister) is picked, Katniss volunteers to take Prim's place. Therefore Katniss and Peeta are the tributes from District 12. The 24 tributes from the districts have to fight until death. The rules change that two people from the same district can win, so therefore Katniss and Peeta won. The rest you have to read for yourself.

The main character is Greg Heffley and this story takes place mostly at his house and school. The theme is probably being there for somebody. The genre is realistic fiction. One time Greg's brother, Rodrick, was sick on his sophomore picture day, then his dad sent in his second-grade picture. Greg's mom made a gingerbread house a week before Christmas, and said nobody could touch it until Christmas Eve Dinner.

Greg Heffley's mom gets him a diary that should be a journal. A slice of cheese has say on the school basketball court for a while and got rotten. This was a good book and the movie was just like it.

Published by Scholastic Press in 2012
This book tells stories from real people who were at the Titanic. These are real stories that explain the disaster that early morning. Some survivors in the book are brave enough to tell their stories and reporters enjoy learning about the fascinating stories of these people. This story also tells about the night that and how everything happened. People who survived on the Carpathia and more tell the legendary story about the iceburg, sinking, and dividing of the ship into two different parts and sections. I would recommend this to people who love reading exciting yet tragic stories.

Illustrated by Jeff Kinney
Published by Amulet Books in 2009
This story tells about Greg Hefley's summer. Part of it is good, as he spends time with his best friend Rowley at a country club, plays tennis with Holly Hills, and makes his dad proud. All of a sudden, his dad finds out he has no job, Rowley bans him from the country club, and Holly thinks he is Fregley. This is all terrible. Rodrick books a gig at Heather Hills's Sweet Sixteen and even hugs Greg. In the end, Heather gets dirty and mad, but the summer was enjoyable and bad all rolled in one. I would recommend this book to all kids of any age.
