Peter Pan (J.M. Barrie)

You know the story,but the original is much more complicated than the movie. For example, did you know that captain Jas. Hook has blue eyes except when he is about to kill someone? Or that whenever  a child says "I don't believe in fairies" a fairy drops dead? This book was very good. It was a bit hard to read, because it was all in old fashioned English. I really liked that the Neverland is in all our heads, but slightly different in everyone else's head.

The Goodfellow Chronicles, Book One: The Sacred Seal (J.C. Mills)

This book was AWESOME! It's all about a 10 year old boy who moves to New England so his parent's can open up an art gallery. On his first night he sees a talking mouse, who is actually - ---- --- ----- Jolly Goodfellow --- -- --- ----- ---. Sorry about the -----ing but if I said anything instead of ----,
 it would be an extreme spoiler. Anyways, Mr. Goodfellow helps Sam (the 10 year old) with a lot and tells him an extremely captivating story about his nephew Edgar. There's also something called the Hawthorne scroll and the Sacred Seal involved. The Sacred Seal isn't the animal kind of seal. It's the keeping things closed kind of seal.

Hook's Revenge (Heidi Shulz)

This was a really good book. It's all about Captain James Hook the dread pirate's daughter, who lives with her grandfather on her mother's side, going to a finishing school but ending up in the neverland getting revenge for her father, who was killed/eaten by the dreaded neverland crocodile. Oh, there's also that annoying flying boy and his mean little fairy. Why does he keep making that annoying "Cock-a-doodle-doo" noise?

Mister Max and the Book Of Kings (Cynthia Voigt)

Great book. I read the first two in the series before this one came out, and found out I needed to wait until fall, and forgot three weeks later. This was in 2013. I spotted it at chapters and thought "I need to read that." I was not disappointed. Max has discovered where his parents are being held captive. The problem is, he doesn't know how to rescue them. I couldn't believe his plan. I highly recommend this book.

28 Tips for a Fearless Grade Six (Catherine Austen)

Amazing book! I probably like it so much because I'm in grade six. Dave Davidson helps a friend overcome their fear of dancing, and then everyone is asking for help with their fears. Or threatening for help, in one case. It's really funny, and it's just a few sixth graders living their lives. Strangely.

Fake Mustache (Tom Angleberger)

Short, silly book. Sixth grader's best friend buys a fake Mustache and starts robbing banks and............. I'll just let you read the book. Oh, it has a, according to the short, slightly nerdy sixth grader, "cute" teenage cowgirl rodeo star, if that changes things. The subtitle is "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." Which pretty much sums up the whole book. Except that the "Mad Genius Criminal Mastermind" is that nerdy kid's best friend.

Seven: Between Heaven and Earth (Eric Walters)

Awesome book, a 17 year old and his six cousins each get a task from their recently deceased grandfather, adventurer David McLean. This book is the first of Seven, the series. DJ, the 17 year olds, task is to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. I really enjoyed this book, and I am going to see the author next month.

Connect the Stars (Marisa de los Santos and David Teague)

Definitely in my top fifty, which is saying a lot. I loved this book. From two seventh graders perspectives, a boy with a photographic memory and a girl who can tell whenever anyone lies. They both get sent to a wilderness camp as "memory boy" and someone who doesn't trust her fellow human beings, and come out completely different.

Frindle (Andrew Clements)

Amazing book! A grade 5 boy renames a pen a "Frindle" and watches it evolve until...... I won't say because that would ruin the whole story. Very good book for younger readers.

My Near Death Adventures: I Almost Died Again (Alison DeCamp)

Hilarious book! A boy who thinks out loud with a evil (according to him) cousin, an evil (I agree with him on this one) granny, who puts funny pictures in a scrapbook on a daily basis, trying to get rich quick. The second book in a series, it is just as good as the first one.

The Copernicus Archives: Wade and the Scorpions Claw,The Copernicus Legacy: The Serpent's Curse,The Copernicus Archives:Becca And the Prisoners Cross (Tony Abbott)

Very similar to the first book, still good. The time travel blackouts are quite interesting, and I'm not sure what's going to end up happening with them.

The Cookcamp (Gary Paulsen)

Very good. the main character is a five year old boy who is sent to stay with his grandmother, a cook for nine lumberjacks that are building a road, when she sees him see her "making sounds" with uncle Casey, who isn't actually related to any of them. His father is away at war. I really liked this book. It was all from a five year old's point of view, so it's all the things that are important to him. There's a whole chapter about him trying to get a chipmunk to eat out of his hand!

Dogsong (Gary Paulsen)

Amazing book, about an inuit boy who goes out into the arctic tundra with a pack of sled dogs to discover his song. I loved this book. The boy, Russel, doesn't like how people are living, so he goes back to living the old way.

Tracker (Gary Paulsen)

Very good book, about a boy dealing with the fact that his grandfather is dying. He follows a deer, and his life changes forever. This was my second book by Gary Paulsen, and I just got a boatload for my Birthday, so many more to follow.

Boy (Roald Dahl)

Awsome book! All about Dahls childhood, and lots of him being hit by a cane. It's really fun finding out about the inspiration for his books. Like the mouse incident at the candy store that inspired "Witches" and him testing chocolates for a chocolate factory that inspired "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".

The Copernicus Legacy: The Forbidden Stone (Tony Abbott)

First book of the Copernicus Legacy. Very good. Four kids and one adult trying to get 12 relics, being chased by the Knights of the Teutonic Order? How could I not like it! Quite confusing, hard to understand, but very good. I will have to read the other books in the series.

Artemis Fowl: The Opal Deception (Eoin Colfer)

The third book in the Artemis Fowl series. Opal Koboi is back, and wants revenge. Very good book, maybe my favourite in the Artemis Fowl series. Artemis and Butler have been mind wiped, and remember nothing of their dealings with the fairies, but now the fairies need their help more than ever to stop over and under the world from colliding.

Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident (Eoin Colfer)

Great book, second in the Artemis Fowl series. Starts with him getting an Email from his fathers kidnappers. Another great story about the fairy and "mud man" (human) worlds colliding.

A Walk In The Woods (Bill Bryson)

Very good book about the Apalatian trail. I won't put an age rating, but if I did it would be 18+. More than a few swear words, but well written. My favourite part was with Mary-Ellen. Great facts about the history of the Apalatian trail and the towns around it.

True Stories of the First World War (Paul Dowswell)

Very interesting book. I can't believe what all the soldiers did at Christmas! Personally, I prefer the Second World War, but this was still a very educational read!

The Screech Owls: Death Down Under(Roy MacGregor)

Good Book, Great series. A bit grisly, but also hilarious! Nish is the WORST! Nish is also the BEST! About a peewee hockey team from Canada going to Australia and playing against "The Wizard Of Oz".

Song of the Gargoyle (Zilpha K. Snyder)

Great book about medieval times! Although it is about a jester's son, it's not that funny. Very well written. I couldn't put it down. Zilpha Snyder is a very good author. She also wrote "The Bronze Pen" which was a very good book. Troff is scary, but awesome.

The adventures of Max and Liz: The Dreamer, the Schemer, and the Robe. (Jenny L. Cote)

Really good book. great version of the bible story "Joseph and his coat of many colours".
Book two of the Adventures of Max and Liz series. I will have to read the other books. Slightly strange, (immortal pets?,) but very well written, and true to the original joseph and his coat of many colours story. (by the way, if you study the cover carefully, you can see an egyptian jackal god on it.)
