Newspaper Page TextWallowa County Chieftain Letters to Santa wallowa.com December 21, 2016 D3 Wallowa I recommend The Tale of Des- pereaux to everyone 3rd grade and up because it has a great theme. It’s not bad to be different from everybody. The main characters are Despereaux, the princess and Despereaux’s mom, his dad, and a rat. Recently despereaux got in a dungeon because he loved a person. Will he get out of the dun- geon? You have to read The Tale of Despereaux by Kate Dicamillo. Jose Mendez If you are looking for books for ages 10+ get the Inheritance Series by Christopher Paolini. They are filled with action, adventure and betrayal. Eragon finds a dragon egg and then the adventures begin. I personally liked them a lot and I think that other book lovers will like these books. Lucas Hulse one of them is going to betray her and one of them is going to die for her. In the second book they are taken to the sea by sea crea- tures, then Jack meets his sister. In the third book you will find out who will betray her and who will die for her. I love this series! Sophie Moeller If you are looking for books for your kids, you should buy the magic tree house books because they are easy to read and are good books. They are about two kids that go to a tree house in the woods and it brings the kids to a place from the books that are in the tree house. Chance Pendarvis I recommend Crispin and the Cross of Lead by Avi for a Christmas present. It is a New- berry Award Winner. If you get this book it will teach your kids about the life of a boy in the 1300’s. It is about a boy named Crispin running from soldiers. This is a life and death situation all crammed into a book. Lucas Power When you were a kid did you like fairy tales? Then you should get The Half Upon a Time series by James Riley for kids in fourth grade and up. There are three books in the series. Half Upon A Time, Twice Upon a Time, and Once Upon The End. The char- acters are Jake, May, and Phillip. They are always going on adven- tures. The first book they meet the wicked queen. The wicked queen tells Jack and Phillip that Do you want to have a great Christmas present for your chil- dren, grandchildren or anybody? Well I recommend the Floors series. The first book is called Floors, the 2nd book is called 3 Below, and the last book is called The field of Wacky Inventions. These books are about Leo Fill- more and Remi Fillmore. They go on a lot of adventures but Leo and Remi have to watch out for Mrs. Sparks! If you want to know more, look for the Floors series by Patrick Carman. Jadyn Tanzey I think the Little House series by Laura Ingles Wilder would be a good gift for Christmas. These books are really good books; the book that I am reading is called Little House in the Big Woods. These books are about Laura’s adventures back in the olden days. This is a really good book. So if you want a good book for your kids, get Laura Ingles Wilder. Kenna Salas I recommend the Land of Elyon series by Patrick Carman. It is all fiction so if you don’t like fiction your out of luck. This book is about Alexa Daley, she is a teenager and is trapped in- side a world of evil. Before the walls went up everybody was free to roam around the forest and explore. This series is fun and adventurous. Alexa explores the world of Elyon inside and out from Bridewell to The valley of Thorn. To find out if she escapes the walls try the Land of Elyon series. Cecilia April I love The Wings of Fire se- ries! They are the best books for 3rdgraders and up. The main characters are; Clay, Tsunami, Glory, Starflight, and Sunny. Now I will tell you a little bit about each dragon. Clay is nice and a good fighter, Tsunami is fierce and a little bossy, Glory is a kind of a smart aleck but still nice, Starflight is super smart, and Sunny is sweet and doesn’t like to fight other dragons.
