Grumpy Monkey

Grumpy Monkey

By Suzanne Lang

I did not really like this book. I only read it because the title sounded fun and it was on a summer reading list. It's about a monkey who is very grumpy. Everyone thinks he's grumpy but he says, "I'M NOT GRUMPY!" It ends with his friend being grumpy because he danced with a porcupine and got spikes on him. So they are both grumpy.

Serendipity and Me is a sweet, heartfelt book about a girl named Sara whose mother died driving in a thick Tule fog. Sara has wanted a kitten since she can remember, but cats have always been a 'no' in her household. When her mother died, Sara's father retreated into a state of deep sadness, bringing Sara with him, and every time she tries to talk about their family, he breaks down and goes to his room. To top it all off, Sara is set to star in a school production of Peter Pan as Wendy, with Garrett as Peter Pan, but a week before the play, she comes down with a bad virus. A cold, gloomy night, a miracle of a kitten bolts into their door, leaving Dad speechless and Sara finally with something to hold on to. The only thing is, can Sara convince her dad to let the kitten stay? I would recommend this book to anyone who loves cats and just wants something soft to hold onto.

Kitten's First Full Moon

Kitten's First Full Moon

By Kevin Henkes

I read this book to my brother. I like how the illustrator did a good job adding to the author's words. I've read it a few times.

Where's Walrus?

Where's Walrus?

By Stephen Savage

I give this book 5 stars! It has just pictures. Depending on the pictures, you can make the story say what you want. The pictures tell a story. After we read it forwards, we read it backwards because there were no words. Everyone if my family took turns "reading" it backwards and forwards.

Misty's Twilight

Misty's Twilight

By Marguerite Henry

This book, titled Misty's Twilight, is a very good and classic book by a famed author named Marguerite Henry. This story takes place after Misty has died, many years after the book before it. A doctor named Sandy has had a lifelong dream to see the horses on Chincoteague. When she finally takes her dream vacation, (with her children) they end up taking home four little Chincoteague ponies, one of which a direct descendant of Misty of Chincoteague. She then breeds with a great stallion, and the foal, a filly, is named Twilight. She is good at everything she does, but the question is, good enough? Find out if her future is to be a cutting horse, a jumper, or a competitor in the fine art of dressage. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes horses and classic books.

National Geographic Kids Chapters: Lucky Leopards: And More True Stories of Amazing Animal Rescues (NGK Chapters)

National Geographic Kids Chapters: Lucky Leopards: And More True Stories of Amazing Animal Rescues (NGK Chapters)

By Aline Alexander Newman

This book was full of very nice pictures and had three different animal stories. In this book, you will read about two leopards, a turtle and a bird, and how they are saved. If you are interested in animal rescue stories, then this is the book for you. In every story, there is a different animal, and the author talks about how it was saved in three simple chapters. This is a book written for young readers, but I still enjoyed reading it and learning all about the amazing animals and the people that saved them.

The Treasure Seekers (Thea Stilton and the Treasure Seekers #1)

The Treasure Seekers (Thea Stilton and the Treasure Seekers #1)

By Thea Stilton

I don't really read Thea Stilton books anymore, but this one definitely caught me off guard. First off, this is a new book, which I love. Plus, the plot is very intriguing: while in Scotland, the Thea Sisters come across a mystery from almost a century ago, that takes them to all sorts of places. There's some mystery, plus tons of fun. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery, but also a few laughs.
