Stink Moody the Second Book by Megan McDonald book review by cooper

Posted by

The main character is Stink Moody. Stink wants to get a jawbreaker and NOTHING for his big sister Judy. The problem is that Stink actually wants the jawbreaker to break his jaw !!! But it doesn’t and he gets furious. The book takes place in Stink’s home and at his school.

One important event is that stink doesn’t break his jaw and complains about it. He writes a note saying that the jaw breaker did not break his jaw and they sent him 21,280 jawbreakers! Another important event is when Stink was writing another note and then he goes to school. When he gets to school his B.F.F Webster won’t talk to him. And when Stink gets home he finds Webster’s birthday invite and says to himself  “thats why webster is so mad at me.”

I like the book because Stink gets 21,280 jawbreakers ( lucky) another reason is because it’s funny. It’s funny because there are funny quotes like, “ Hey bug you’re not ugly just bugly.” I would recommend this book for 7 year olds to 107 years olds because it’s laugh out loud funny. I would rate this book stars.

Judy Moody Saves The World! by Megan Mcdonald (writer) and Peter H. Reynolds (illustrator)

Posted by

imgresThis is a great book because it is realistic and funny. Normally that does not go well together for me. Judy Moody likes to pretend she is a doctor and when she grows up she wants to be a doctor too so she has dolls to practice on and her brother to practice on too. Her brother is named stink and he is really annoying. Judy Moody lives in a small town.

She finds these crazy strips(crazy strips are band aids) that are have a contest and who ever wins it gets to put their idea on it. Everyone submits a design and who ever has the best design gets it to be the crazy strip of the month. You get a prize too. The prize is that you get a bunch of crazy strips and sunglasses.

Judy Moody has a project at school where everyone try to save the world. They all collect bottles and stuff that is from the rain forest. Did you know your pencil is from the rain forest. A lot of stuff is from the rain forest.

I loved this book. I would give it a four stars because it was really fun and interesting because I learned a lot of stuff that she learned. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes realistic, but funny books.

Charlie Joe Jackson’s Guide to Extra Credit by Tommy Greenwald

Posted by

Charlie Joe Jackson’s guide to extra credit is about a kid named Charlie Joe Jackson who is trying to get extra credit to avoid going to an academic summer camp. So in order for that to happen he has to get straight A’s and is allowed one B. Charlie Joe Jackson realizes that he can do so by getting extra credit in his classes that are harder. He goes to the gym teacher and asks how he can get extra credit in his class and he says… Ha, I’m not going to tell what awful thing he had to do you’ll have to read the book. And then he goes to the art teacher and does the same thing, and the art teacher says that he can by, guess what, I’m not going to tell you!

 

You should read the book!! I would give this book 100 out of 5 stars. Does he have to go to the awful summer camp or does he get straight A’s with one B? You’ll have to find out! I really like how Tommy Greenwald came to visit our class. It makes you think about the book in a whole different way.

Vordak The Incomprehensible by Scott Seegert (author) and John Martin (illustrator).

Posted by

vordak                Vordak The Incomprehensible is a great book. I love it because it is silly and goofy. Vordak is an evil villain. He is very smart and funny. He sometimes talks to himself. It is funny when he does it.  Vordak has an evil lair filled with creepy stuff. The book is him talking to you about what happened to him. He makes a bunch of inventions that work. He made an age reduction ray that makes things young again. He tried it on him, it worked, but it broke and he made him too young so now he has to go to school. My favorite part in the book was when Vordak went to school on the school bus to get to school. He has an enemy named Commander Virtue and he has a kid that goes to school at Farding High which is where Vordak has to go to school. There is some trouble at school though so Vordak does not like it. I like the books that are totally unrealistic like this one I recommend this book to people who like the books that are totally unrealistic and to people who like funny books too. I finished the book in less time than I thought I would read it.  I give this book five stars! Whoever reads it or has read it you are awesome!

LAWN BOY, by Gary Paulsen

Posted by

LAWN BOY is about a 12 year old boy named _____ (yes, he doesn’t have a stated name) and his family is broke. He is intelligent and thinks he is dumb.

As a birthday present he gets his grandfather’s old 10-speed lawn mower. So, not knowing what to do does the obvious: he mows his cute little, old, not very taken care of lawn.

[The old mowing companies’ boss ran off into paradise with his new wife.] While he’s mowing his lawn his neighbor walks up to him and from across the fence asks; “you mow lawns?…”

And thats where his summer gets exiting.

His first client, a start to a boring, but still exiting summer. While he is mowing the lawn, another customer asks for him to mow his lawn and it happens again and again and again.

Then he meets Arnold, ‘a 70s hippie guy.’ A client who can’t find 35$ and, gets him a small account in the stock market and… before he knows it, he’s sponsoring his very own boxer: Joey Pow…

 

All of the chapters have a title that you don’t figure out why it’s called what it is called in ’till the end of the chapter

This book is a quick (88 pg.) fun, sometimes cliffhanger, and just a plainly amazing book for a plane ride or car ride that will make you think the story has just begun, so read ‘LAWN BOY returns’ if you want the rest of his story! I would rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
