The Jagaur Stones: Book One Middleworld

The Jaguar Stones: Book One Middleworld is a  mixture of Indiana Jones and Harry Potter. Its packed with adventure and is almost scary at points. Its one of the best books i have ever read. It was written by a friends of my parents which gave me more of a boost to read it I even got bookplates and bookmarks all signed! I was really excited about that. 

I think that the main character, Max, is a lot like Max G., a previous student of Maggie's because he is an average teenager who is addicted to video games and pizza--and a lot more of Max G personality. I  learned so much in the book without even realizing it. I find myself knowing Mayan hyroglphs  and Mayan history.  They have a little section at the end that tells you all the stuff you have learned. I recomend  this to anyone who likes a page turner ( a book that is so exciting you could make a cliff hanger on almost every page).

  1. I love your connection to Max. That, along with your connections to Mayan history made me want to read this book right away. Thank you so much for donating it to our classroom, so other kids can enjoy it, too!
