The Chocolate Touch is about a boy that goes to a candy shop, and gets a piece of chocolate, and the next day everything he puts into his mouth turns to chocolate. But it gets worse when every thing his lip touches turns to chocolate. How will he get rid of it ?
This turns into an adventure in his own neighborhood!
A good book and this book shares a good sense of humor.
My book is called The Tiger Rising by Kate DiCamillo. This book takes place in the misty Florida woods.The main characters in this book are Rob Horton and the tiger. The tiger is a character who does not show up a lot in the book because the tiger is mostly in Rob’s head. One important event is when Rob’s mother dies because when Rob’s mother die’s Rob’s mood and personality changed for the whole book. Another important event is when Rob meets a girl named Sistine Bailey on his first day of school. This is a important event because Sistine is helpful and gives Rob evidence in the whole book. I really enjoyed this book because I loved the description poetic words in the book. My favorite part of the book is when Rob meets the tiger because Rob says that he sees the tiger rising. I would recommend this book to somebody who likes poems and art because there is lots of poetic words and lots of art stuff in the book. For example there are carvings of the tiger that they explain about.
I will rate this book four stars because I think the chapters were a little to short in this book but
any way it was a good book.
The Mouse and the Motorcycle is about a charming mouse named Ralph who lives in a hotel and a little boy named Keith who become friends over a toy motorcycle in the hotel in California. This peaceful story, toward the end transforms into an exciting adventure. an exciting part of the book is when Keith gives Ralph motorcycle. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes silly stories about friends who are an animal and a human. I liked this book and I hope you do too. I give this story five stars.
The Forgotten Door is a great adventure with many different twists keeping you on your toes.
Little Jon walks into a door/portal that sends him to a different planet (Earth). He falls and does not remember anything. But a family picks him up and drives him to their house and takes care of him. Later on they realize he can read minds and he tells people that in court when he gets blamed for stealing something. All of a sudden everyone wants to get a look at the mindreader. How will Little Jon get back to his own planet find out when you read it.
My favorite part is when everyone hears he’s a mind reader and gets scared.
Personally I did not enjoy the book so much.
I would rate this book 2 out of 5 stars.
I recommend this for 8 and up.
So if you like a cool adventure through space and a fun ending this is the book for you.
The forgotten door by Alexander Key,is in my opinion a fairly good book. The main character Little Jon fell through a portal that had been closed for many years. He meets the Bean family who helps him and doesn’t give up. The setting of the book is in New York at about 1960. Throughout the book, the Bean family finds out some secrets about where Little Jon come from and what he can do.
My favorite part of the book is when Jon goes to court because I find it interesting when people find secrets.
I would recommend this book to people who like suspense and mystery with a little history.
I would rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
I recommend the Great Brain series to readers that like adventure. I recommend the Great Brain series because the characters do things a normal day person would not do. The story is based in a small town in Utah. The “Great brain” refers to a very clever boy who has two brothers and a mom and a dad. The boy uses his cleverness get things from other boys that he otherwise would not get.So the book is about him and his brothers adventures. But sometimes he get in trouble with grownups for using his cleverness to get those things.So once again I reccomend the “Great Brain” siries to people that like adventure.
I would rate this book 5 ***** stars

The girls names are Oona Wong, Betty Bent, Luz Lopez and Deedee Morlock. The series is set in New York city.

My book is called: This Book Is Not Good For You! By Pseudonymous Bosch. It is part of a series. The first book is called : The Name Of This Book Is Secret. The second book is called: If You Are Reading To Late. The fourth book is called: This isn’t What it Looks Like. There is a fifth book.
The main characters are Cassandra, Cass for short, Max-Ernest (By the way that is one name) and Yoji, Yo Yoji is what his friends call him. The setting is all over the place because it is an adventure/mysteries book. The bad people are called The Masters Of The Midnight Sun.The two main bad people are called Ms. Mavuis and Dr.L. You find out in the first book that they look like they are 20 but they are really 200. The club that Cass is in is called The Terces. That is secret backwards because they are protecting a secret that the reader dose not Know about.
I would recommend this book to someone who likes mystery and adventure. I would rate this book 5 stars out of 5. *****.

Benjamin’s Book Review Of Gone Away LakeBy
Benjamin Winokur-Applebaum
The book that I just read is called Gone Away Lake! I finished it a little while ago but now I can finally write about it!! It is By Elizabeth Enright
The reason I liked this book is because it has one picture per chapter. So I know what the scenes from the book look like when I need a picture in my head ! I also like this book because they describe it from the perspective of a child named Portia who is exposed to be looked at as the narrator/main character ! I also like the book because it is in the perspective of two time periods now(35 years ago)and 5,555 years ago! Also another reason I like this book is because about five people are the feelings in the book and that one person is telling all of the people about it! I also like that it has a bit of make believe in it!!
The plot is that there are two kid’s Portia and Julian (main characters). The two kids find a lake in the forest and they then start to explore and have adventures in the swamp. But they also might meet some people or things that you would not normally see in real life or in a swamp !!
There are tons of interesting flashbacks and stories of that some people tell that they meet in the story !!There are lots of people you will meet in this adventure and lots of names of animals. So if you like animals this is your book and if you are a story or surprises lover this is also your book !!
I recommend this book to you because it has laughs and screams and tells you stories that are fake but seem real. It gives you tips about nature!! That is why I recommend it to you to read !!!!
This is why I liked this book. It is called Gone Away Lake for you who do not remember !! So if you like anything that I said in this book review you should check this book out because it is in the public library’s. There are two books in the series Gone Away Lake and Return To Gone Away!! My name is ben and this is my book review for you !!!!!!!!!!!!!
ENJOY
