  1. My favorite book was captain underpants and the purple potty people. The book is funny and is different than other novels. For example it is more like a graphic novel because every page has a picture and the animation is cool. Readers that like funny graphic novels, that like animation, that have a big sense of humor, and that like to see old people beat up bad guys that are only in underwear and a cape. If you want to learn more why I like captain underpants talk to Ben Kunkel during recess at school.

  2. My favorite book this year is "Inheritance" by Christopher Paolini.
    It's the 4TH and last book in the Inheritance Cycle. It's a really long story of how it leads up to that book, so I won't go into all of that. To put it into one sentence, a teenager named Eragon, his dragon, Saphira, and a rebel group called the Varden are trying to overthrow this evil, immensely powerful king named Galbatorix who is trying to have complete control of this country called Alagaesia, where almost everything takes place. I just started the book on Thursday, so I'm not very far through it, but so far, it's really good. There's fighting in practically every chapter. For those who haven't read the Inheritance Cycle, I recommend they should read it.

  3. My favorite book of the year is Dead End in Norvelt. It's about a boy with a overly bloody nose. He gets grounded for the summer for accidentally shoot his dads sniper. He goes to work for his neighbor miss Volker who writes the town obituary (obituary is when you anounce when sombody died and their life story) because her finger don't work any more. He goes through countless adventure and crazy stuff like his dad makes a plane. It is a amazing book

  4. My favorite book was Alabama moon. It's so good because it makes you curios what's going to happen next. It's about a boy and his father dies so he tries to go to Alaska. But the cops find him and take him to jail. Luckily he finds two new friends. Then they escape to the woods with a hole jail of people but they don't want to go. So he leaves with just his two friend and then more drama happens. Then you will find out why it's my favorite book.

  6. My favorite book this year is Among the Hidden. It is by Margeret Peterson Haddix and is a series of six books. It is about a future society where familys can only have two kids but sometimes third children are born. And the main charecter almost gets caught at least ten times, so there is plenty of action and it is one of those books where you don't know what will happen next so you can't spot reading until one o'clock in the morning.

  8. My favorite book this year is Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. I liked it because it has descriptive words and life like scenarios. The story is about a young boy that survives a plane crash. He survive in the Canadian wilderness. The people who would like this book are interested in survival and real life plots. The best copy is the hard back with great illustrations by Drew Willis.
