Dairy Of a Wimpy Kid The Last Straw


Greg Heffley a normal boy with crazy ideas. He and his best friend Rowley Jeffreson made a time capsule and put lots of neat stuff like vidieo games money and lots of other cool stuff. Or on valentines day he sent cards to everyone saying what he really thinks about them like... Dear James you smell. This book made me laugh just like the other books of this serie because Greg uses sarcasum. This book is probably the one in the serie with the most suspense because Greg's father wants to send him to a military academy and he dosent change his mind till the very last page.



Qs: What kind of school does Greg go to? ex. primary school, collage...

The Fugitive Factor

At first when I walked by this book in the library it didn't interest me. After, I heard that Gordon Korman wrote good books, and I saw that this book was written by him, I took it to try it out.

Finally the book was great! It was full of action and suspense with a little humour. When I was reading this book I really felt like if I was in the action of the book. From now on I will look forward to reading the other books of this series. It was great!

Question to class: Could you imagine your parents are in prison, but they're innocent, and you're trying to find evidence that they are? Also all the country is after you and a mysterious killer wants you dead, but you don't know why. How would you feel?


diary of a wimpy kid


characters: Greg is the main character in the book. I like him because his a sarcasim guy that whats makes him funny. His best friend is Rowley jefferson. Greg is not at all popular in his school he trys to be popular but always sink. Like if his in a contest he'll compare himself to the other and he doesn't win.
Rodrick older brother of greg. He's like rowley No BRAIN.
Summary: it's a boy named Greg that trys to be perfect guy.
Question: Would you like to live his life?

diary of a wipy kid


What I like about this book is the features ,example the writing is not perfect just normal.If the book did not have those little comics the story would be not as much funny.


In every diary of a wimpy kid there is a symbol the 1 book is the cheese (cheese touch) inthe 2 book it is rodrick it goes well with the tittle Rodrick rules book 3 greg in his moms bathrobe book 4 a hand made of sand.


Jeff kinney puts some action people really do example book 3 when your cold and tierd you put your bathrobe, or when your dad is not in a nice mod and after he wakes you up then you fall asleep again and he is angry ... because personaly I fall asleep after my dad wakes me up.

Princess In The Spotlight


Being a teenager is hard aspecially when you're a princess teen. You have to deal with all the boyfriend/girlfriend stuff, drugs, being cool, (ect...)


This book is about a girl called Mia her mother is dating her Alderbra teacher. She also has a secret admire. There is another bigger problem her dad is king and he is jeleuse of her mom. I find that this book is outstanding book if you are at the stage of a teenager or soon going to be a teenager this book is REALLY GOOD book.


I would personatly give this book a 5+, because of some of the features are beging really really fun because of the way they talk about other teens. The two bff's are interesting they talk about other people in a good and bad way in there backs. If you are under 12 years old you would have trouble understanding the true meaings of this book.


Mia is the main character she is a little girl (14 years old teen) She isa really stressed girl this is one of the features you really feel her amotions just by reading this book.


Do you think she will servive the teen life ?

Freak The Mighty


When miss was presenting the book to the class, I was like ''no big deal it's a book like the other,'' but when I heard that someone in our classroom and said he ''liked'' it, I thought to myself it must be a very good book. When I started to read the book, it was so-so but a little while further in the story was way better! The only thing that was sad was the end, but I won't spoil it for you. I have only one thing to tell you, you must read the book!! Don't miss your chance!!

Matilda


One feature is the pictures.Roald Dahl, the author decided to include ilustrations. The point of view is the author which is the narrator. The text Matilda happens in my oppinioin in the present. The dialogue seemed real and was really descriptive.

The main chararcter is Matilda. She is 5 and a half years. Before entering school she already knew how to read, write and her multiplication tables up to 13.

The theme of the book is like a fairy tale. I think it tries to teach children to listen and respect people.

What do you think about the theme? :)

Double Fudge

My blog entry
The book I choosed is called Double fudge when I first saw it I thought it would be boring but I did not have any other books to choose so I chose this book. Fudge is suddenly obsessed by money when i say obsessed it's at the point he called himself mr. money even at school you should read his homework.When i started the book right away I found it funny, because of fudge the funnniest charater I think. One quotation that really liked was " Does brocoli change pee color " of course fudge said that. Let me talk about the author, Judy blume , judy is also a young adult writer like for Miss Beatty. If you want to know how Peter survives to fudge.

The Dead End By Mimi Mcoy


Suspenseful is what I call it! The story of a 12 year old named Casey that moves in a haunted house (but she doesn't know the haunted part yet!). I thought this book was written by a genius. In the beginning it seemed boring, just a classic about a girl moving and being all sad because she can't see her best friend. But when she moves in the house and all these things happen: ghost diary, weird boy, moving objects, electricity outburst, ect. the book became very interesting. What I preferred in this book was that everything linked with everything.

Before ending this blog post I will write a bout Millie. She is a very special character. She died when she was playing hide-and-seek. She passed away in 1939 on August 22nd. Casey (the main character) finds her diary in the old houses' attic. Millie is so interesting, when I read her diary I feel like I read her mind.

Matilda :)


This is the second Roald Dahl book that I read. What I like is his metaphors and introduction, where he talks to us and enters us into his book.

Most of his children books are fiction and teach children things about how people can act or think sometimes, like in Matilda and the previous book I read. This book has special was of telling messages, that aren't only of working well in school, but to never discourage and doing actions for things you would like to change (standing up).
The book "Matilda" talks about an absolutly brillant little girl of 6 years old that has never really got loved by her parents, but continued being brillant, without her parents paying any attention to her talent.

Double fudge

The book double fudge is about two brothers who are very differnt. Fudge is 5 and has a new pation for money, but attends to be rude and greedy with it.

My favourite character is Fudge, because in a way he riminds me of myself EXCEPT i did not have a problem with money, because when i was 5 i thaught 1.00$ was a million dollars!

What do you think Fudge should do to solve his problem with money?

Robots


we are lazy and do not want to work. so we created robots to help us in different ways. from saving live to playing. some robots are built to do dangerous jobs humain can't do. like "testing bombs" or "fire fighting" robots.


Cetain robots are used in war like "war planes" or "spy planes" some are little as a finger. some extradinory robots are gadgets humain weir like the "hal-5". it makes you have super humain powers like in "g.i joe" some can makes us control other robots with our minds!!! but still humains have the need to built so somethings can surprise you.

Islands

-Prologue:"For a heart stopping moment,the bow of the Pheonix pointed..."
-About the Author:"Gordon kormon..."
-Website:Visit www.scholastics.com/titles/island
-Summary:" Kids, 1 shipwreak, 1 desert Island"

Opinions:I think the book/story was good but not my favourit.The text seemed very realistic because of the words they used about the boat ex.the bow of the Pheonix.I like the idea of the title because it sets the book suspicous.

Characters:

-Luke:he is normal and always has great ideas,just like gordon korman.
-J.J:rich,snoby kid wnho thinks he can do everything,but has a heart sometimes.
-Will:Brother of lyssa who fights alot with her,but a great personality.
-Lyssa:Sister of will,abit snoby,dosen't get along with will,But i think her character dosen't get devloped alot in the book.
-Charla:Captain's "shou shou",has great ideas,and is very smart,dose well in many things.
-Ian:Quiet.Smart and not a trouble maker,Knows about many things.
-Captain:Likes to talk alot but dosen't like when others talk alot.
-Radford:snoby and mean,has in common with the character Mr.Sir in the book Holes.

Connections:

Self:I have a connection with charla...Always there to help and has great ideas.

Text to others:I think that radford has a connection with Mr.Sir in the book holes htey are both snoby and want to scare the kids and think there so strong.It also reminds me of one of my stories,the characters : J.J. was sneaky and mean just like my story "The third floor bedroom"The girl is sneaky and mean with her uncle.

World:It reminds us of the titanic and not everybody is perfect in the world we all have faults and we all do lie and do bad things that we regret.

Meaning:I think that the meaning is, when your in trouble somewhere lost with friends or people you don't know and don't get along with,Its time to work togeather to do things right.

Author:Gordon Korman is an author for over 35 books.He lives on long islands with his wife and son.For this series of books,he had to do alot of reachers,since its based on real people and real life.
