I red this book called Don't look down 1 I think it is funny and I enjoy reading this book.i think it is a page turner and it is really intesting. And I also think it is a rollicking book and it is about a boy called Ricky he has a secret that he can do something but he can't do it all the times and he wants to be really famous. I think this book is for kids to 6-12 and I rated the book Don't look down 1 a 9/10.

It sounds like a good book just a bit of punctuation but good review.

Nice book review, although i think you should put more punctuation. I was wondering if the book was called Middle school my brother is a big fat liar, or it's called Middle school.

Middle School The Worst Years Of My Life by James Patterson.
This book is a real page-turner. It's a rollicking, and exciting choise of a book. This is a powerful book about a nucanced young boy named Rafe Khatchadorian, who's going into a haunting new middle school called Hills Village Middle School, with a cheaky diabolical plan to land himself in detention for most of the year.

It's the totally insane story of how Rafe:

Fought an overcame a sico-maniac teacher called the Dragon lady,

Sold his soul to the school bully Miller the Killer and brought it back, a ddollar at a time.

Fell in ''LIKE'' with the most popular girl in school, Jeanne Galletta.

He accidentally-on-purpose hurt all the people he cared about.

And when i heard this one i started gripping harder and harder on the book, in the book his mum meets a man named Carl(also known as bear) who meets Rafe and isn't all sunshine and rainbows.
He wrestled with a real life bear, repeatedly. IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

Then Rafe got his report card and he then realized that bear was out to get him.
I would say that this book is defently not a happy lyrical book. But for writing this book James Patterson is a Tour de force.
I would rate this book a 9/10 because, it felt good reading some of the poignant parts, aswell as the exciting parts.
Middle School The Worst Years Of My Life, by James Patterson.

The book I'm reviewing today is (Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Dog Days) and its a compelling story about a boy named Greg, who lives with his parents, older brother Rodrick and younger brother Manny.

It's about a young boy trying to find his way growing up, it's a readerable, powerful gripping book that said it is a good book for all ages.

I rate this book a 6 out of 10.

You rate the book quite low--but give the book a good wrap as you wrote nice things about it. What things and events about the book would you like for you to give a higher rating?

Do you love readable books, powerful words and deceptively easy pctures in a book? Well if you do Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Dog Days is the book for you. This book is defently a page turner and a gripping book because it is about a father and a son trying to have a better relationship so to fix that they get a dog to try and fix their problems. that said, the boys end up having a great bond together.
I rate this book an 8/10

Have you ever wondered if Shakespeare invented the word alligator? Or if it illegal to kiss in a Paris train station? Well if you have or asked something like that then bears can't run downhill is a book for you.
It a rollicking funny book written by Robert Anwood that is full of funny story's and facts that I found to be page turner. It is a readable book for both young and old people.
I found it to be amusing and interesting book that being said it is a book that you could read for 5 minutes or for a few hour

I read a book called dragons at crumbling castle by Sir Terry Prachet. It is a page-turner. It s multiple short stories in one. My favorite stories are tales of the carpet people and another tale of the carpet people. It is a book for every one. I rate it 9/10.

I've been reading this book called the dark rises it's basicly about a young boy named dillan and his family when they move into an abandoned old shack in the middle of the forest they think it's perfectly fine until dillan notices strange things like shadowy figures in the middle of the night crows telling him to get out and nobody believes him until they start to disappear one by one 10/10

Have you ever wondered what your school life would be like if your name was Weir Do? We'll Arnold Do bring that theory to life. This book is a readable book that is also a gripping page-turner that is suitable for ages 7 to 12.

Diary of a wimpy kid dog days is such a page turner as it consistently puts the main character (Gregory) into situations throughout his repeatedly changed summer.

I would definitely recommend reading this book.

I rate it a 7.5/10 for interesting problems, that can't be solved easily.

I am reading a David Eddings book called Seeress of Kell it is part of The Mollorean series and is the last book of the series.

It is an awesome page turner it has action, suspense, death, destruction, sorcery, love, humour and many more amazing things I have been glued to the whole series of books ( The Belgariad and The Mallorean) it has the best series of books I have ever read.

I rate it 9.5.5.5.5.5 out of 10.
