The Five Best Books I Read In 2017

The Five Best Books I Read In 2017

The first book was Wish By: Barbara O'Connor

  This book is really good. Charlie gets sent to live with her aunt and uncle because her parents can't take care of her. She meets a boy named Howard who becomes her friend. She finds a stray dog who she names Wishbone. I recommend this book for 5th-7th graders. 

The second book is A Whole Lot of Lucky By: Danette Haworth

 Hailee Richardson is not the richest or poorest person. One day her dad wins the lottery! Hailee has to get used to her life without being selfish and learning who her real friends are. I recommend this book for 5-8th grade.

Real Friends By: Shannon Hale and Leuyen Pham

Shannon has one best friend. But when its time for 5th grade, her friend is hanging out with the popular group. Shannon does not know who her real friends are. To find out more you'll have to read it! I recommend this book for 4th-7th grade.

Wings of Fire By: Tui T. Sutherland 

I don't know about you, but I really love dragons! Clay and his friends are trying to get out of their cave and go find their parents. This is a really adventurous story. I recommend this for 5-8th grade maybe even 9th.

Last but not least, Kira-Kira By: Cynthia Kadohata

This a really sweet book. It is about Katie life with her sister Lynn. Katie changes when a tragic accident happens. Read it to find out more! I recommend this for 6th-9th graders.

Book Review

          
          Today's book review is on LOST IN THE SUN   By:Lisa Graff



                                        

                  This book is awesome and a little bit sad. Trent hit a hockey puck that accidentally killed one of his teammates in hockey. He is having a hard time. Then he meets Fallon Little who becomes his friend. Trent realizes he might be able to start over. WARNING: There is a cliffhanger at the end!

Universal Studios

 I went to Universal Studios with my family after we went to Disneyland. I loved the Harry Potter broom ride and roller coaster. Universal has lots of 4D rides. In Simpson's Land, we got giant donuts! We went on a tour which was super fun! I sat next to my cousin and she loved it!

St. George

 On March 9th to 12th my family and I went to St. George. We stayed at my grandma and grandpa's house. We went swimming, we went to my dad's bike race, we went shopping, we went to the park a lot, we went to a dino park, and ate out. It was a fun trip!

Disneyland

In October 2016, a whole bunch of people from my family went on a big trip to Disneyland. It was super fun! We spent 3 days in Disneyland, and a few other days doing other things. We went on a ton of rides, met characters, did shopping, and a princess lunch. We had a nice hotel that served breakfast. We could walk from the hotel to Disneyland.

Endangered Animals

Here are some animals that are endangered. Sometimes we don't even realize some of our favorite animals are endangered. Here is a list of some species of animals  that are endangered. 

• Sumatran Elephant

      

• Leatherback Turtle

   

• Western Lowland Gorilla

 

• Orangutan

Of course there is millions more of endangered animals. There are websites we can go look at to help. You can also donate money to zoo's and things like that. I love animals!
