I love to READ!
I love to read! I just read The Land of Stories: The Wishing Well by Chris Colfer and fell in love with the interesting storyline. I am now on to the next book in the series: The Land of Stories: The Enchantress Returns and so far, I can't put the book down, it is so wonderful. I also reread The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate and have such deep affection for the main character Ivan. I think it is still one of the best books I've ever read.
I also am a big fan of picture books because they have so much to offer. My new favorite historical fiction is These Hands by Margaret H. Mason. It is an amazing story about African Americans who worked in the Wonder Bread factory in 1950s & 1960s and were not treated fairly. I also love, love, love The Day the Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt because it is hysterical. We just read Freedom on the Menu by Carole Boston Weatherford which is a powerful historical fiction story about the Greensboro Sit-ins.
Please make a post of your TOP 3 BOOKS of all time! Make a list of the 3 books that you loved so much you wanted to read them again. List a book you wished there was more to the story so you could spend more time with the characters. In your post be sure to list the title and author of each book.
My first favorite book would by far be Wonder because I like the drama and that the author gives each character a perspective of the story. My second favorite would be Out of my mind. But i do wish they would make a sequel to the book because they end at a spot where you want to keep reading. And my third Favorite is Inside Out and Back Again.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you Violet 100% Violet Wonder is a great book!!!
DeleteThe author of Wonder is R.J. Palacio Out of my Mind is by Sharon Draper and Inside Out and Back Again by Thanhha Lai.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorites has to be the Divergent series by Veronica Roth, because it is so interesting and hard to put down . Another series is the Percy Jackson and the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan, the books are mostly about adventures. I also like The Unwanteds series by Lisa Mcmann, it is a very surprising book. Also the Land of Stories series by Chris Colfer, at first I thought it would be all about princesses but, it's also about adventure. And I love Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling.
ReplyDelete1 I am that girl by Alexis Jones
ReplyDelete2 Percy Jackson 1
3 Percy Jackson 2
Both by Rick Riordan
I am that girl because it shows girls to be who they are and to knot worries about what they look like. And to knot bully other girls for what they look like on there out side. And Percy Jackson because its full of adventure and mystery. The second one because it always leaves you hanging when the chapter ends so you want to keep reading.

DeleteI like the book Out of The Dust by Karen Hesse it is about the Dust storm and a family needs help to survive.
ReplyDeleteI love "Because of Mr.Terupt" because it shows how characters change trough out the story and it has so much meaning emotion
ReplyDeleteI love Nory Ryan's Song by Patricia Reilly Giff. I did not want to put the book down it was really good. I wish there was another book about Nory's adventure in America. My second book is Because of Mr. Terupt by Rob Buyea. It showed how all the kids felt and them changing throughout the story. My third book is Theodore Boone the Abduction by John Grisham. It is a mystery. I wanted to skip to the end to see who did it but I did not so I could find out when I get to it.
ReplyDeleteI love the books The Last Olympian in the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan, Mickey and Me by Dan Gutman and Because of Mr. Terupt by Rob Buyea.
ReplyDeleteI thought the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen was a great book but I would put it in second below Daniel X by James Patterson, because Daniel X is a very detailed and touching book, and in third I would put Dogsong also by Gary Paulsen.
ReplyDeleteI just loved the book, The One and Only Ivan. Mrs. Gigante recommended it to me last summer and I could not put it down! Both of my daughter's also read this book and loved the friendship between the animals. Mrs. Gigante has great book recommendations and I look forward to reading more of her suggestions!
ReplyDeleteWhen I picked up as recommendation Out of my mind by Susan Draper I thought about how well it was written with great description and it was a super good book .
ReplyDeleteI liked Because of Mr.Terrupt
because it had a well developed characters and problem.
I also liked The Harmonica by Tony johnson because it had a happy ending unlike most historical fiction books.
I really like ALL of the books Mrs.Gigante picks
One of my favorites books are, The City Of Ember by Jeanne DePrau because, it has a lot of action and description in the dialogue.
ReplyDeleteI liked Because Of Mr. Terupt by Rob Buyea because it was welled written.
And my last book I like is The One And Only Ivan by Kathrine Applegate because,you can learn a lot of lessons in that book.

ReplyDeleteI agree Matt- the Rick Riordan are very engaging. One of my favorite Rick Riordan books is The Red Pyramid from the Kane Chronicles. My second favorite book series is Diary of a Wimpy Kid and my third is Wringer, a book that is disturbing because it is about wringing pigeon's necks but it is still very interesting.

ReplyDeleteI think that Mick Harte shouldve let his sister, Phoebe have the tatto because she might have never gotten anything in the box since she was hiding it from him
