No, David!

No, David!

By David Shannon

When I was little, I loved to read these books, and they amazed me! I laughed so hard that I could cry! And now as I grow up, I forgot these books, but when I saw the cover today, it reminded me of a flashback, reading this book. And now I forgot the drawings in this book! I hope everybody enjoys this funny book!

Dear Beast: Simon Sleeps Over

Dear Beast: Simon Sleeps Over

By Butler, Dori Hillestad

In this early chapter book, we meet Andy, whose parents are not together. He has a pet dog, Baxter, at his mother's house, and a pet cat, Simon, at his father's. When his mother goes out of town on business, Andy and Baxter (aka Beast) have to sleep over at his father's. Simon is kept in the basement so that the two pets can be introduced to each other slowly. Simon starts a correspondence with Beast, telling him the proper way to do things. In order to make amends, Beast leaves liver treats along with his notes, but Simon claims not to like these. The two have an adversarial relationship, but slowly warm to each other. Their reactions to a terrible storm help solidify their friendship. Correspondence from other creatures in the area, such as Cheeks the squirrel, Stinky the Skunk, and Bubbles the fish is included as well. Beast's grammar and spelling are not as good as Simon's, but his enthusiasm for his significant life change is good to see. Simon is curmudgeonly and catlike, so is not enjoying being kept in the basement, liver treats or no! The letter format might encourage younger readers to start writing notes and letters of their own, and it would be delightful if they aslo illustrated their epistles. Atteberry's illustrations show a great range of amusing facial expressions on the pets, and are in full color. I love the pops of teal, mauve, and apple green. Beast's spelling difficulties are given an entire glossary at the back of the book as a "Doggy Dictionary", which seems a bit unusual for a beginning reader book. Beginning readers might be interested in correcting Beast's spelling, and the phonetic spellings might be easier for them. Animal stories are always popular with younger readers, and this book will appeal to reader who enjoyed Cronin's Chicken Squad, DiCamillo's Mercy Watson, Elliott's Owl Diaries and Messner's Ranger in Time, as well as this author's own Kayla and King series.

Fake Mustache: Or, How Jodie O'Rodeo and her Wonder Horse (and Some Nerdy Kid) Saved the U.S. Presidential Election from a Mad Genius Criminal Mastermind

Fake Mustache: Or, How Jodie O'Rodeo and her Wonder Horse (and Some Nerdy Kid) Saved the U.S. Presidential Election from a Mad Genius Criminal Mastermind

By Tom Angleberger

When Casper gets 400 dollars from his aunt for his birthday, he goes with his friend Lenny to Sven’s Fair Price Store to buy the Heidelberg Handlebar Number Seven (a mustache that can lead to the fate of the country), and Chauncey’s to buy a-man-about-town suit for the upcoming presidential election. That same night, a bank was robbed by a short man wearing a man-about-town suit that has a mustache. Then, the night after that, the Federal Gold Reserve gets robbed by the same man! Who’s the hoodlum? Signs point to Casper as the culprit, but is he? What happens next? A crazy series of events and betrayal lead to crimes and bank robbings by a criminal mastermind. What will happen to the presidential election? I guess you’ll just have to read Fake Mustache… What I thought about it: Fake Mustache was a great book. I like mustaches, so this was the book for me. I saw the word mustache and Tom Angleberger, and said “Why don’t I check it out?” It was the first Tom Angleberger book I read, and I will definitely read more of his books. I have heard many great things about him so I checked it out. I love the little “unheard of” twist Angleberger put on this book. I mean, you usually don’t hear about kids spending $200 on a fake mustache for a plan to become president. Or boys dressing up as cowgirl-Tv stars. While you’re reading this book, You just hate Fako more everytime you hear his name. Also, quite a bit of suspense. And wanting a sequel. Overall, a book worthy of a golden mustache. So, if you want to find out if the presidential election gets sabotaged, read this book!

Judy Moody and the Bucket List

Judy Moody and the Bucket List

By Megan McDonald

I challenged myself to read books from the Judy Moody series this month. So I started with this one because it is about a bucket list, a list of things to do before a certain time. For Judy, her list was before she began 4th grade. It is a fun book and easy read, especially for younger girls. I read this one in 2 days. What would be on your summer bucket list? My favorite part would be when Stink, Judy's younger, 2nd grade brother, help Judy understand contractions.
