Color Me Dark, Patricia McKissack

Posted by

Image result for color me dark

Nellie must move. She and her family must go because things in the south for people of color are getting bad. Like her Uncle Pace who fought in war. There were no seats in the colored car on the train, so he sat in “white territory”. He was beaten and killed just for that.

Nellie is a interesting, articulate kid. It is so cool to see through this amazing kid’s eyes. not only is she an amazing kid she has an amazing story too.

 

This story really has a lot of emotion. It shows what Nellie feels and just through her journal you know everything that’s going on. I would recommend this book because something in it has a place in everyone’s heart. I give this book ⅘ stars.

Wrinkle In Time by Madeleine L’engle

Posted by

What were the three W’s going to do? Mrs. Who, Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Which. They are the wise women who have been living for millions of years. They also guided Calvin Meg and Charles Wallace (brother + sister except Calvin, just a friend) on possibly the greatest adventure through time and space ever.Image result for wrinkle in time

 

Meg and Charles Wallace’s dad was an amazing scientist but a year or so ago he was sent on a mission by the government. Meg Calvin and Charles Find the siblings father on a dangerous planet controlled by IT. IT is a giant pulsing brain having everyone under its pattern.

 

Believe it or not IT is not the  main problem or “villain”. It is a black thing that  is pure evil and has been terrorizing many galaxies for longer than the W’s have been alive.

 

They go through many adventures together and after a while they realize that they love each other. That is like their power.

 

If you want a spoiler read this if not, DON’T:

 

THEY FIND THEIR DAD!!!!!

I love this book because I love adventure. The book is basically just adventure. They toggle withe time, play with space. In fact they stretch through time with the 5th dimension.

 

I would give this book a 5/5 stars.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

Moone Boy, New I.F?!

Posted by

Moone Boy Blunder Years by Chris O’dowd and Nick V. Murphy

MARTIN MOONES HOUSE-CustServRep263 (aka Sean) stood there in the closet asking questions to the well known–well actually not well known Martin Moone. “You can come out of my closet you know,” said Martin. “Thank god,” said Sean. In an interview with Sean he said, “Martin looked like a pretty dopey but nice kid when I met him but I never expected for him to be my realsie (owner), nevermind that I never expected to be an I.F (Imaginary Friend)”

Sean is actually a customer service representative but he came to Martin’s house to see why he dug up his catalogue (which was because he wanted a new I.F.) Then Martin started asking for imaginary advice and hey became friends.

The tall bearded man was just there to ask questions not to get into Martins imaginary life. Yet he did and ended up being Martins I.F.

How could this have happened? The customer service dude and the crazy kid with a need for a man in the house become best friends!? Huh, bet you didn’t see that coming eh.
