Eyewitness Book: Dog

Eyewitness Book: Dog is written by Juliet Clutton-Brock. Dog is an informational book as I think you have guessed already and it is about dogs as you should have guessed. The book takes you through all of the stages of the development of the first dogs and puppy hood training and adult hood of your dog and it has sections about different categorize of dog. It is an all around good book about dogs but if you want to learn about specific breeds of dog or about certain stages of dogs or their development you probably do not want this book.

The Trouble with Tuck

The trouble with tuck is written by Theodore Taylor.  The Trouble with Tuck is a great book about a girl and her dog.  Her dog goes blind when it is only four and the girl tried  to do every thing she could do to help her dog.  She did do everything and anything for that dog but nothing worked.  This is a suspenseful story of a dog, a girl, friendship and trust.  A wonderful saga of what people do for friends.

MISS HICKORY

Miss Hickory is written by Carolyn Sherwin Baily.  This book is great!  It has wonderful pictures in black orange and white.  Fitting perfectly with the description.  Miss Hickory is a toy who is left behind.  She has to rely on great friend like wise crow to help her until she finds her happy place.  She has lots of friends other than crow and they all helped her at one time or another and they helped her get to a wonderful place.  That just shows how much friendship can do.

FALLING DOWN THE PAGE

This book is edited by Georgia Heard.  The book is a book of list poems.  All relating to school.  They are all fun to read but a little hard to read because the binding is at the top then you flip it up and over.  The poems are amazing and written by different people. It taught me a lot about how to write list poems even though it did not tell me how to write them.

Call it Courage: interveiwed with J.W

The author of Call it Courage is Armstrong Speery. The main character is Mafuta. The main idea is he is trying to make people think he is brave.  J.W likes it when the boy escapes from his home island, and when cannibals the people who eat other people are coming and he speedily swims away.

Little House in the Big Woods

Little House in the  Big Woods is a great book written by Laura Ingals Wilder.  It tells you a lot about the way pioneers lived.  When you take your time with the book it tells you a lot more than you think.  First of all some books about pioneers are not written by pioneers.  This book is written by a pioneer so I say a book written by a pioneer tells you more about pioneers than one that is not.

The main characters in this book are Laura, Mary,Ma, and Pa. This book has very good characterization you get close to the characters and you understand  the way that Laura is feeling. 

Charlotte's Web

The book is written by E.B WHITE (Author of STUART LITTLE).  The book talks about friendship. Wilbur has a lot of friends.  He is always nice, humble, and silly at times. Charlotte is a great friend who always thinks of others before herself.  Templeton is a nasty rat who collects lots of JUNK. I say Wilbur is a little babied  by Fern at the beginning of the story getting taken around in a baby-carriage but, because of all the other great stuff the book talks about I say it is a pretty good book.
