Diary of a Wimpy Kid Rodrick Rules
This book is the second book in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. Now, when I opened this book, I thought it would be the same as the first one. I thought it would be Greg, Greg, and more Greg. But boy, was I wrong. This book is mainly about Greg's brother, Rodrick. In this book he is the big chesee and the one trying to stay out of trouble. For example, when their parents go out for the night, he throws a huge party. He does a pretty good job cleaning up his tracks, but sometime later he gets caught. Now it makes me think, is the next book going to be about their other brother, Manny?

Mallory On Board
Anchors Away! At least that is what Mallory will be thinking about in this book. The excitement is rushing through the McDonald family. Except, there is one bump in the road for Mallory, or should I say a rock in the sea. Her two best friends' mother and father are getting married. Why is that a problem? Well as Mallory would say, "because their suppose to be 2 separate families!"
This book at first will made me feel bright and happy inside but, depending on my definition of sad, I could feel tears forming inside. That could probably turn my sunny day out of the picture. I think that it is true, what it says in the book, that there are good ships and bad ships, but there are no ships like friendships. There also is the feeling of being left out, like the extra one in the crowd.
To me, sad can have two meanings in this book. The meaning of bursting into tears, or the meaning of the feeling as if you were being excluded and letting the sadness build up inside. This book taught me a lot about those two meanings. Also that if you'rr ever feeling left out by a friend, you should always tell them. I would rate this book a 10+.

Shakespeare's Secret
I have read a lot of books , but this book is my favorite of all. This book is about a girl named Hero. That might sound a little strange for a girl name , but in a play by Shakspeare Hero is a girl who is very brave. Why is her name from Shakspeare? Well in the book Hero's father is a Shakspear expert. But that is a very triky job because her family has to keep moving. I would rate this book a 10+.

Franny K. Stein the Fran with Four Brains
This book is the latest book in the Franny K. Stein series. To me I think it is the best.Because it is the only one where she is really really really close to geting killed. O.k. i'll start from the begining. Boy I hope that I can make it. It's so hard to not give it away! O.k. here it goes. In this story she makes robots so that she csn be less busy and stressed out. But then they turn evil,and plan to take overthe world so that no one can get in their way of excellence.
