Avengers

Avengers, adapted by Thomas Macri
Published by Marvel Press

The theme is work together.  The genre is fantasy.  In this book an agency called S.H.E.I.L.D. is to defeat Thor's adopted brother Loki the Trickster.  He tricks them by purposefully falling off of the Bifrost (a bridge) and lands on Midgard (Earth) to conquer it.  Now the Avengers assemble to stop him.  I like this book because the Avengers fascinate me.

The main character is Luke Skywalker, the book takes place on Hoth, space, Dagobag, and Cloud City.  The theme is probably betrayal and relationships.  The genre is fiction.  Luke Skywalker learns more about the force.  Luke becomes more of a Jedi.  The book was good and just like the movie.

Enchanted

Enchanted, by Jasmine Jones and Bill Kelly
Published by Disney Press

This story is about a girl named Giselle who is getting ready for her wedding with Prince Edward, the son of Queen Narissa.  On Giselle's wedding day a witch tricked her into falling in a hole that would take her to Manhattan.  Prince Edward hears of the news and will do everything in his power to marry his love.  He arrives from Andalasia in search of Giselle.
While Giselle tries to find her way home she runs into Robert, a serious lawyer who doesn't believe in fairy tales.  Robert and his daughter Morgan find Giselle and take her to their apartment.  The next morning Giselle shows Robert her dress she made out of his curtains.  Meanwhile, Edward and his "loyal" companion, Nathaniel, are looking for Giselle in Manhattan, and they are lost.
Prince Edward finds Giselle and she asks him to take her on a date, so they head out.  Edward's mother Queen Narissa will stop at nothing to keep Giselle from taking her place as Queen.  The next day at a party the little old witch gives Giselle an apple, and she faints.  The only thing that will break the spell is a true love's kiss.
Prince Edward tries a kiss and it doesn't work.  So the only person left is Robert, but is he going to make it in time?  Robert saves Giselle, but now the Queen is upset and she turns into a dragon and takes Robert away to the top of the building.
At the top of the building the dragon was roaring.  Giselle yells to the dragon, "I won't let you take him away from me."  The dragon laughs and says your fairy tale is over.  As the spire on the top of the building is binding, Pip, Giselle's loyal chipmunk, bounces on the dragon's head.  Giselle has her sword in her hand and tries to throw it as hard as she can.  It misses the dragon but catches Robert's sleeve on the spire.  Then the dragon loses her balance and falls off the building to her death.  Giselle ends up marrying Robert and Prince Edward marries Nancy, Robert's ex-girlfriend.  They live happily-ever-after.

The Little Mermaid

The Little Mermaid, by Disney's Wonderful World of Reading

At the beginning, the mermaid and the fish were talking.  Then the mermaid went out of the water.  Then the mermaid wasn't a mermaid any more.  I love the part when the mermaid was not a mermaid.

The Lion King

The Lion King

Scar tried to kill Mufasa.  Simba killed Scar.  He became the king.  My favorite part was when he became the king.
