Hope H.

My name is Hope, the types of books I like are fiction and mystery books. Why I like mystery so much is because they actually let you be a detective for a moment. Why I like fiction so much is because I like made up things.

My favorite book is baby mouse beach babe. Why I love it so much is because it is about a mouse and it is going to the beach to go on her summer vacation. The setting of the book Is a place were I would like to go, it is at the beach.

My goals as a reader are always have a book with me even if I am on the bus, trip, school especially, at home, and in the car. Another one of my goals as a reader is to always have a book never just sit there at dear time. The other goal is to always try to read at least four Mark Twain books a year or when ever I can. Well you have heard all of my goals as a reader.

Hi, my name is Hope. The book I am currently reading is Ghosts of Fear Street. It was published by Pocket Books. It is a fiction book. The book is about this boy named Will Kenny. But everybody calls him Will the spill because every Thursday his school has spaghetti and he always drops his lunch and it gets all over him. The coolest boy in school asks Will if he wants to sit with him. And his name is Chad. He asked Will the weirdest question; he asked him if he ever wanted to be someone else. And he asked Will if he wanted to switch bodies for just an hour. And he thought really hard about it. But you have to read it yourself to find out.

The book that you talked about sounds awesome to read. If you like that book you should try to read Summer of the Sea Serpent because you said that you like mystery books and that is a awesome mystery book to read. Also I wonder if you like fiction books because they have some really good ones at the Liberty Public Library?

Hope that sounds like a really great book. I would really like to see if Will switches bodies with Chad. What I am really wondering is why Chad is wanting to switch bodies with him, and why he is even talking to him. -Marressa

Hey you yea you, Hi my name is Hope and I am currently reading is Swamp Monster of Third Grade. By Dadey, Debbie Swamp Monster in the Third Grade Little Apple Books, New York 2002.
This book is a Fantasy fiction. This book is about this swamp monster and he always gets in trouble for spying on the humans. And then he really wants to try to be like human being, so he signs up for school and he can’t eve talk any of the kids cause they all are scared of him. And every day at school he goes back to his swamp were he lives you will be amazed at what he does. And one day he thinks he changed to a swamp monster to a real kid. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
The part I didn’t really like was when I read that that when he morphed into a swamp monster in middle of class, I didn’t like it because I just thought it was weird. The part I liked the most was when he changed into a kid because now he can be like a normal kid and that is what he wanted. One thing I would of changed about the book is that the book would of went a little faster like the events would of happened, but that is just my opinion, I really like the book the way it is I just wished that It went faster.

If I ever have achance and I am done with my other books I promise that I’ll try to read it.Oh that book sounds like great. Keep reading it and find out what happens.

Yes, David i have read Abduction. My favorit part was when the dad came and got the little boy by conning him into it. I wish i could read it again, but i am already reading Ghosts of Fear Street, By R.L. Stine. it is an Goose Bumps Book. I love to read Mark Twain books. My favorit year of Mark twain was last years. Why I liked it so much is because it had Old Willis Place, that was another of my favorit books, and they had Abduction. Abduction and Old Willis Place are hard to choose from. I would, It is to hard to choose. I am going to say they are as good as the other. Do you like Mark Twain?

Wow Hope Blizzard of the full moon sounds like a really good book to read but I have not read a magic tree house book for a long time. And it is one of the newer ones that I have not read before. I think that you should read the Sea of Monsters it is the sequel to the Lightning Thief and is a really great book.

The Last Holiday Concert, Andrew Clements, U.S.A, 2005
Hi my name is Hope, and the book I am currently reading is The Last Holiday Concert by Andrew Clements. It is about this kid named Hart Evans, and he shot his teacher with a rubber band because his other teacher was put out of his job because he can’t afford his art or even his own classroom. So one of his former students is doing the last holiday concert, to help raise money for his former teacher. Then once he got up and ready for his concert every thing goes wrong. But you have to read the book to see what happens next. - Hope

Roy, Ron. The Panda Puzzle. New York. Stepping Stone book, 2001
This is a Fantasy fiction,
This story is about a little boy and this panda. The little boy’s mom took the little boy to the zoo and the panda is acting up, running into fences, and making loud noises. And the zoo keeper knows why he is acting up. First she spots something weird in her cage it is an alarm clock with a news paper wrapped around it, the zoo keeper reads the news paper aloud to every one at the zoo. It says “the panda at our local zoo has been stolen” every body in the audience started talking. Something big happened next you will have to read it to find out.
One comment about this book is, I like fast books and this book goes fast to so I love to read it. The other comment about this book is that it has really good pictures and word choice.
I liked it when the little boy caught every thing on video tape, I mean if something big happened at my zoo like that I would love to get it on tape. One part of the book I didn’t like was when I read that it was the news paper was covering a alarm clock, they could have used something else besides a radio.- Hope

Hi my name is Hope and the book I am currently reading is The Tale of the Desperanx. It is a fantasy fiction. It is about this when this mouse is born and his name is Desperanx, he changes every thing, but you have to read it to find out what he changes. The part I didn’t really like was when the dad said “he can’t live with his eyes opened like that.” It is sad and I kind of like mice. They are cute but only at the pet store I mean if one is on the loose in my house then I will be crazy, the part I did liked was when I read that the mother was had him, it was so cool. Well you have got to read the book it is awesome. You really have to.-Hope

Gross A. Tiberiu, Elly, USA September 2007.
Hi my name is Hope and the book I am currently reading is Elly, it is a biography book, and it is about Elly, her mother, and her little brother Elly was only 15 when she was deported by cattle car to Auschwitz, Birkenau. As soon as she got to Auschwitz, a shoulder directed her to the right. You have to read the book to see if she survives the Holocaust.
What I liked about the book was when the book said that Elly’s mother went to things that survivors do. What I didn’t like was when the book said ell’s dad died. I don’t like it when people die.-Hope

Hope I loved the book The Tale of Desperaux. It is one of my all time favorite books. I am so glad you liked it. My favorite part of the book is the fact that Desperaux is different than the other mice. That is my favorite part because in my opinon I think every single rat, or mice, is the same. It is cool to know that a mice can be different than other mice.
