I'm back(yet again)! K, so Addy here with my review on the book Turtle in Paradise, by Jennifer L. Holm. The book is about a girl named Turtle who gets sent away from her mother whose working for a woman who doesn't like kids. Turtle goes to live with her Aunt Minnie and 3 cousins Beans, Kermit and Buddy in Key West. But not even the Florida Keys are paradise during the Great Depression. In 1935, money is low, jobs are scarce and Turtle finds that the people themselves are down-right mean. Only with the help of her bitter-sweet cousins and unlikely friends will Turtle discover that you don't need money to be happy; you need your family.

Hey guys this is Elizabeth! I'm going to write another book review for you! The book I'm going to review is Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine. Kathryn Erskine has created a wonderful book filled with extremely sad moments. Mockingbird is about a girl with autism. This girl has the by far hardest life ever! She has no friends and is made fun of due to her autism. Also, her brother has just recently passed and her mother passed years ago! Though she has an extremely hard social life and family life (her brother was her only friend) she is still extremely smart and can draw almost anything. By the time she was about 8 she was reading adult books that her dad was reading. I really recommend reading this book! It is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Sup, people! Addy here with my next book review. Okay, so the next book I will be informing you about is Love, Aubrey, by Suzanne LaFluer. So basically the book's about a girl named Aubrey who's mother left her on her own after her sister and father die in a car crash. She moves in with her Grandmother and meets new friends who help her readjust to her new life. This book was absolutely amazing because it was sad and gripping(I LOVE sad stories)and really reached out to the reader's heart. On a scale of 1 to 10, Love, Aubrey gets a 10. Be sure to keep reading our posts!

Hey guys it's me Elizabeth!!!!!!!!!!! My next book that I'm going to tell you about is a book called Bear Dancer by Thelma Hatch Wyss. I didn't like this book one bit! Truthfully I would give this book at the most 2 stars. I would only give it two because it lacked detail, but at least it had some sort of plot. It was very confusing to me because of the lack of detail. I definitely would not recommend it. P.S. When Addy posts and it says my name, she does it from my password but on her computer. :)

Hey Elizabeth here, my first book that I am going to tell you about is Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls. This is a heart felt book about a boy and his two dogs. Their relationship touched my heart. The 3 main characters are Billy and his two dogs Little Ann and Old Dan. This trio would do anything for each other. The definite theme for this book is friendship! I would personally give this book 5 stars. I hope you will love it as much as i did!!!!!!! p.s this book is a must read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
