Jones fell asleep and Joel let his caterpillars out onto his lap. Joel lost one caterpillar; it was on Old Mr. Jones face. Ricky slapped the caterpillar off of Old Mr. Jones; Old Mr. Jones woke up.

Rating: 5 / 5
Main Characters: Sara-Jane, Titus, Timothy
 
Report:
I really think its a great book! Its a mystery book.
In the book, Timothy drew a picture on the sidewalk for his teacher.
Sara-Jane, Titus, and Timothy saw a drawing with hearts, question marks, and flowers around it.
They thought a grown up drew it. In the picture it said, "QXWILLXXYOUWQQMARRYWWXQMEWQ"
It was from someone named Joe, The teacher's boyfriend. A girl named Jessica, got jealous and erased
the drawing. But Timothy got it on paper and copied it down and they told the teacher and the

Report:
I really think its a great book! Its a mystery/funny book.
In the book its funny because it goes, They where sitting on a cute little
bench in front of cute little shops. I like that part. Sara-Jane gets a riddle book and asks
Titus and Timothy the Why Did the chicken cross the road joke. Then Sara-Jane
turned around and saw a giant chicken. They went into a bakery shop called
The Little Red Hen and one of there friends, Liz, came in the back room to get her
costume on and it was gone! The owners nephew, George, went in the back room,
got dressed as a chicken and jumped up and down in front of drivers ed class.

Title: Mandie And Mollie & The Angels Visit 
Author: Lois Gladys Leppard
Illustrator: Chris Wold Dyrud
Rating: 5 / 5
Main Characters: Mandie, Mollie, and Celia
 
Report:
 
I really think its a great book! Its a mystery yet adventures book.
I would say the books about...but I think I'll let you figure it out.
The book isn't that long, but it looks long because there's the story, and
then a play for people who liked the book that they wanted to do it on
their own. This book has bad English (like ye, and goin'...you get the hint)
but there's normal English too. Like all Mandie books its talks a lot about
God and the Bible.

 


Title: Prayer Is... For Me! 
Author: Christine Tangvald
illustrated by: Tony Griego

Rating:

 
Book Report: I think this is a good book for everyone, mostly children 7 and under. It teaches you that God wants you to pray, and that He loves you. It teaches you that God can help you through anything and everything and that you can talk to him about ANYTHING. It says you can say long or short prayers because God listens.

Cambria's Review:

Title: Prairie Dog Town
Series:
Animal Friends
Author:
Janette Oke's
Illustrated by:
Nancy Munger

Rating:


My Report: This book is great! Prairie Dog Town is funny, interesting, and full of fun! It also has the Prairie Dog family (the one it talks about) helping each other to get stuff done. Flick seems brave and he is the one telling the story also. I Just want to say one more thing, while I was reading this, It seemed like I was actually seeing what I was reading.

Cambria's Review:

Title: Maury Had a Little Lamb
Series:
Animal Friends
Author:
Janette Oke's
Illustrated by:
Nancy Munger

Rating:


My Report:  The name fits with the book perfectly! Maury is a little boy and I guess there ewe had triplets but the ewe didn't want triplets, so after a while, Maury had the baby lamb. In Chapter Four they name the little lamb, they named it Shandy. The name Shandy fits with the lamb. Its a great book! Its one of the best books I've read, its even better then Prairie Dog Town!

Cambria's Review:

Title: Astrokids - Wired Wonder Woof
Cambria's Ratings:

Characters:
Miko, Buzz, Mir, DeeBee, and Tag

My Report: If you ever read any of the Astrokids books that i have, you'll know this one is the best! Lots of Biblical Truth and Adventure! M.A.C makes funny jokes sometimes. Captain John Long Silver tricked Mir to come to a tour when he wasn't going to. That's what started this whole "mess". Its good and really funny

Cambria's Review:

Title: AstroKids, Miko's Muzzy Mess
Rating:
Main Characters:
Miko, Buzz, Mir, DeeBee, and Tag
Information:
Five friends learning Biblical Truth through out-of-this-world adventures aboard space station CLEO-7

My Report: I think its funny, at first there having a problem with blobs, then the muzzies come along, and Miko feeds them Chocolate and they multiplied. Then, after they multiplied, they turned into Muzzies with Wings, or what Tag renamed them, Fluzzies. DeeBee is basically the "Bible Teller" in this story. I sort of got scared about the muzzies and fluzzies dying, but it happened that they did not die *sighs* few, and i glad they didn't! Other Characters doesn't really do much, but Tag and DeeBee and...maybe Mir, sure does
