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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
