Week of September 27th

We are a community of readers! Add a comment about whether the books you are reading "keeps you reading."
Consider:
  • Is the book interesting? Why?
  • Is the book about something that you already know a lot about? (For example Ian knowing a lot about sharks.)
  • Is the book one that someone else told you about?
Here's my example:
I am reading the book, Crash by Jerry Spinelli. This book has definitely been holding my attention. I find it interesting because the main character, Crash Coogan, is changing. At the beginning of the story he was more or less a bully. He is developing into a more caring, respectful person. This happened after his grandfather had a stroke. No one told me to read this book, but I picked it up because of the author. There has not been a book that I haven't liked that Jerry Spinelli wrote. 

Remember to:
  • Write using capitals and end marks.
  • Add details in your comment.

  6. I am reading Lucy The Diamond fairy by Daisy Meadows. I like it because it is about fairies that live in Fairyland. There is a bad guy in the book named Jack Frost. He tries to steal the diamond with his goblins. The diamond gives Lucy powers. My friend Gabby told me about this book. I like this book because it is an action book. The fairies always get the diamond because they work together to stop the goblins. I am glad Gabby told me about this series of books.
