Join old echidna on his amazing and scary adventure in the outback along with an enormous shade tree. The outstanding book is written by Mona Green and is a fictional book. Old echidna has been treated terribly and decided to fight back against the native Australian animals in the outback. Even though everyone treated the echidna poorly I love how he never stopped fighting this book will definetly change the way you think of echidnas. The echidna and the shade tree is an exeptional book that I recommend to everyone from any age group reads.

Weird? yes, Not much words? yes, does this sound like a book for you? Fly Guy and Frankenfly is the name of this fiction book, written by Tedd Arnold. Tedd Arnold has only wrote the series of Fly Guy Books.

fly Guy makes a Frankenfly in the middle of the night, thinking his owner " buzz" would like it. But the question is, is Frankenfly real?

I think this book is actually boring, because the story line has no point. But the other story's are better. there is only one pointless issue, that is that Fly Guy makes a Frankenfly. This book doesn't happen in real life so pretty much it doesn't affect you, unless if you are a baby who is scared of a zombie fly.

My favorite part of the book monkey king vol.1 was when he can turn the staff smaller and bigger. The monkey king was born from a stone from monkey island and he got his name from the great wizard. There were no bad gus in the book.

The book was entertaining and funny because was tough and act cool. when he reads a book he doesn't need to look at the book! the monkey was acting weird in the temple so he had to leave. When he returns home nearly all the monkey was dead. Will the monkey king survive?

Animorphs

Have you ever wondered how being an animal is like ?This one of a kind chapter book was written by Katherine Applegate,she has written more Books like this one.Animorphs is a very unique book and I was intrigued when I first read this book.If you like animals and adventures this is the one for you!

I would highly recommend this book.It's about five friends Tobias,Marco,Jake,Rachel,and Cassie.They're on a mission to stop the "Yeerks" from controlling the human race and other alien races,but these five friends are very unique they can't be controlled by the "Yeerks" and best of all they can morph into animals!But there is one question.....will they save all people from the evil "Yeerks"?

I absolutely love this book.It is a very inspiring book,and it talks about teamwork and friendship.That's why I like it.

Do you like fantasy books? If you do I've got the perfect book for you. Harry Potter and the half blood prince. The author is J.K.Rowling. She has also written all the rest of the Harry potter series, fantastic beasts and where to find them, quidditch through the ages and the tales of needle the bard. Harry Potter and the half blood prince is a 607 page book with 30 chapters.

My favourite part is when Harry finds out who the half blood prince really is. As Voldemort's sinister forces amass and a spirit of gloom and fear sweeps the land. It becomes clear to Harry that he will soon have no choice but to confront his destiny.

The book was very high quality and interesting. There were parts when it was sad, happy and exiting. The book shows that you have to continue what you are doing no matter what happens. The book affected me by making me sad when the book was sad and happy when it was happy. At the beginning of the book it was a it boring but it gradually gets better.

What makes me me

If you like shortish picture books then your in luck.This book is about a girl called Akiko and a caterpillar. What makes me me. Written by Stacey McCleary and liiustarted by Sally Rippin. They both have other books.

What makes me me is a fiction book and is about a girl called Akiko discovering the life cycle of a caterpillar. There are no good guys or bad guys just Akiko and the caterpillar. The book is set in a very tall building in japan.

This book is very boring and because its about a girl that lives in a very tall building and a caterpillar. It raises no issuses and did not affect me.

Do you want to read about a grandma growing out of a roof? Are you crazy anough to think this is true? Do you like crazy medicines? This book is.... George's marvellous medicine! This book is by... Roald Dahl! He has written many books like... Charlie and the chocolate factory! This is a fiction book! So get ready to be mind blow! (Not really)

In this fun story there is.... George, Grandma, mr Kranky A.K.A dad, and mrs kranky A.K.A mum. I would say.. Grandma is EVIL!!! This story is all set at... you guessed it (or not) grandma's house! Yay... Anyway! George makes a crazy medicine for his grandma with all types of yucky stuff! Like animals medicine! Yuck! I think his grandma is horrible! And guesses what! So does George!

This is a really fun entertaining book for me and probably you too! Why? Because it's funny how he gives her a crazy medicine and puts crazy stuff inside! This book has possibilities at all! I mean? Who wants to be stupid anough to make this medicine and feed it to their grandma? Who knows what will happen! This book has effected me by making me laugh and think this is crazy!

This is an awesome book and I recomend this book for ages 8-12 years old! I think this book is fun and funny! I rate this book 12 out of 10! And just remember kids! Don't try this ta home!

If you are unlucky, read this book to know how to get lucky. the title is Goosebumps birthday party of no return, the author is R.L. stine he's made the goosebumps series , it's a chatper book.

There is only good guys, their names are Lee and Corey. so lee had a vulture claw and it gives good luck but Lee's one gives bad luck and his trying to find out why the vulture claw gives bad luck.

The book is kinda intresting because when you read it you just want to know what happened next. The book says that there is a rare chance to get beat up, I have got beaten up before.

This book is an magnificant book, you should definatly read this book. so grab this book and read it! Don't actually read it, it's really boring, so is suggest to go to sleep.

If you think that ginea pig town and other animal poens is about a town full of ginea pigs, well yor wrong. Ginea pig town and other animal poems is an exelwnt book...if you want to read poems that is.

Lorraine Marwood wrote this outstanding poem book,she writes other books like "star jumps" and "celebrating Australia-a year in poetry". I would realy recomend this book to anyone that likes animals or poems or animal poems.

Slavery, not having parents, friendless and a cruel master. What else could be worse? In the book Dragonkeeper written by Caroline Wilkinson author of the Dragonkeeper series, a girl is experiencing this. This wonderful novel is filled with facts however it keeps an enterteining vive to it.

A slave girl in the Han dynasty saves the life of an ageing dragon and accomponies it on a perilious journey to the Ocean, a mythical place which the dragon, Danzi believes that it will heal him. Pursued by a dragon hunter Diao and protecting a stone that must be protected makes the journey seem impossible. However, the girl and Danzi find the strength and courage to complete it. That is if they can...

I absolutely adore this book and read it till the heatbreaing end. This book carries endless possibilities from a shape shifting dragon who spits on clouds o ressurected wizards. It also changed my stance on my parents and realised I must be gratefull. I reccomend this book for anyone who wants a good book.

Do you want to read a book about a kid who thinks he's wimpy? Well if you do, keep reading and if you don't, I really don't care. The book I'm reading is Diary Of A Wimpy Kid Rodrick Rules. The author is Jeff Kinney and he has wrote the book series of Diary Of Wimpy Kid.

The book is like a journal so it doesn't say which chapter your reading. The main characters are Greg, his family and Greg's be friend Rowley. The story is set in Greg's School, his neighborhood and Rowley's house. I haven't finished the book yet so I haven't got a favorite part yet.

This book is really interesting and I would recommend this to any one who hasn't read it or pretends they haven't read it. There Ono bad guys or good guys. Just people... random people. Any way this book is awesome and I like it.

Would you like to read a book that has the title Nathalia Buttface and it is about the most EMBARRASSING dad in the world.that will be a great book for you if you would like to read a book that is about that.

As I said the title is Nathalia Buttface and tha author is nige smith and has made Fun-size Beano and it is a chapter book.

This funny book is about this girl she tells storys about how menu times her dad embarrassing her and the best bit is when she companies about a van.

This book is very interesting because I have never read a book like this how her dad embarrassing her and will give this book a 6.

Look out dragons!!
How to be a pirate is a fantastic book written & illustrated by Casadia Cowell. This fiction novel is great for all ages. Cassadia has written more than ten HOW TO series novels. My favourite part is someone trying to steal a frozen potato. The only enemy in this book is Alvin the treacherous. Thi book is very imaginative and entertaining because of all of the types of people,boats,and dragons. I would recomend this book to all. :D
