"The Lovely Bones"


This is a story about a girl, called Susie, who was murdered by a neighbour (Mr. Harvey) when she was coming from school.
When she died, she went to Heaven and she was seeing everything that was happening in Land with her family and friends.
I think it's very sad, because she tells with all the detail the terrible time that her family was going through and the police couldn't find Mr. Harvey in time.

Batman


I would like to recommend the Batman comic book. He is a super-hero who is always trying to save the village from the villains. The book has a very interesting plot and you can spend many hours reading it.

Eragon


Eragon is a boy who chooses to be the knight of the dragon and beat the evil with both powers. It's a big book with many pages, and it's amazing, with a great journey and a great adventure. During the journey, they need to defeat some enemies, like monsters and evil magicians. Eragon and his Dragon make friends who help them defeat the darkness and the big evil magician.

My Sister's Keeper


"My sister's keeper" is a drama and suspense book that I really liked. It was about a girl who had cancer and she was dying and suffering a lot. So, she told her little sister to end her suffering and stop giving her part of her body. Anna, the little sister, sued her mother because she was forcing her to give the organs. While they were arguing that, the older child, died.
It was an emotional book, which I advise you to read.

The Freedom Writers Diary





I'm reading «The Freedom Writers Diary». I saw the film and I thought it was very interesting because it talks about discriminated people (black people) and they think that if they provoked a war, they would be respected. But a teacher is going to change their lives...

Donald Duck

The "Donald Duck" is a comic book that makes everyone who read it laugh a lot. Donald is a duck that makes stupid, but funny things. He has a lot of friends like Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, his nephews and his uncle that is very rich.
Donald Duck's comics are the best I ever read!

X-Men


I would recommend all the Marvel comic books because the plot is very interesting, but the one I like the most is X-Men, it has many cool characters with many powers and they are allways trying to save the world.

The diary of Anne Frank




I liked «The diary of young girl: Anne Frank»
This books talks about a Jewish girl who lives during the Second World War. She had to live closed in a house because she and her family were getting away from the soldiers. But, unfortunetely, one day she and her family were captured by the soldiers and people thought that they had died in a concentration camp.

The Last Song


"The Last Song" tells us the story of a destroyed familly. Ronnie, the older child, has been really angry since the divorce of her parents. After that, she and her brother (Jonah) have been living with her mother, who, on the last school day, told them they will spend the next summer with their father.
By this way, Jonah was delighted but Ronnie couldn't believe on what was happening. The true was that she was obligated to go.
As you can expect those were difficult holidays, with a lot of problems, love and bad surprises.

The little Prince


It's a story about a little kid who travelled around the universe looking for a friend.
He found a lot of people with different personalities.
This story doesn't have a special age to be read, but is full of meanings that we should follow in our lives to be sucessful.

The Chronicles of Narnia



We chose this book because it grabbed our attention . The writer is C. S. Lewis, we had already seen the film, and we thought that is a really good history, so we want to read the other versions of the story . This story talks about four children who travelled repeatedly to a world. In that world they felt they were more than mere children . They felt special, and saw the world with other eyes . Children are forbidden in that world . We can't tell the all story, because it loses interest. We recommend this book because you will be involved in the story and feel good and fascinated.







READ THE BOOK!

From Baghdad, With Love; by Jay Kopelman



We've chosen this book because we absolutely love dogs. The action happens in Baghdad with Marines that "fight" to keep the dog. This book shows that dogs can be, and are, the man's best friends. The book show us how a dog make a man felling happy and changes a whole life: it makes it fuller, happier, and mostly makes the owner have another prespective of live. We've never read it so we cannot advice someone o read it, but we're sure that if you are a dog's lover like we do, you'll love to read "From Baghdad, with love".

We'd like to read this book because it's a love story.

Sophie Jordan is a good writer of romantic books. It's a story of a love impossible.
