Remarkable

Remarkable is about a little girl named Jane. Everyone has a talent but the little girl Jane. In remarkable there is a school named the gifted school because everyone has a talent. Jane does not go to the gifted school because she does not have a talent so she goes to a regular school. Jane has a teacher named Miss. Snitchabell. The school has a lot of teachers in it but none of them have any students except Miss.Snitchabell.

 

 No one knows that Jane has a teacher that is named Mad Captain Penzing the Horrific. Meanwhile Jane has a brother and a sister. Her brother is very good at painting and her sister is very good at  math. Jane is kinda sad because she does not have a talent but her dad is good at forgetting things which Jane and her mother dislike. But one thing is good is that her mom is a famous architect.

One night someone is at the door. That someone is named Captin Rojo Herring. He has a parrot named Salzburg. Jane's mom is building a bell tower but someone destroys it in the middle of the night. Captin Rojo Hering was a Captin but he is really a famous composer but he does not want to show it. 

It is a happy ending. I think that you will like this book because if you like mystery. Jane teaches me that you don't have to have a talent to be famous.

Maryellen Taking Off, American Girl

There was a little girl named Maryellen about to turn ten. Back then in 1945 they did not have birthdays  like we have now. She wants it to be something where her friends get dressed like a famous person. But she changes her mind and wants to collect money to save people from polio. Polio is a very bad disease and you can die from it. Meanwhile her sister Joan is planning to get married to her boyfriend Jerry. 

But on her birthday something goes wrong. In the summer Maryellen and her siblings go  on a camping trip. One night everyone goes to see fireworks except Maryellen and Joan. They stay home to watch their family dog, Scooter. Something goes terribly wrong and Joan hurts her ankle. At the end Joan and Jerry get married. 

Maryellen collects money by doing a show on how you should get your shot and why.  Maryellen's teacher one day said that there was a science club so Maryellen wanted to try it. 

I would recommend it. Because you can learn about the past. And Maryellen might be like you.

STAR WARS REBELS

In the story Rebels there were different characters in every chapter. So in the end of the story they all ganged up on one bad guy. In the end lots of characters died and I was glad my favorite character did not die. My favorite character was Ezra and he was a  Jedi. He was the one that kills the only dark Jedi.

A character that I did not like was the alien leper because he killed a Jedi.  The bad guys were trying to get the Jedi Ezra to die so that they would be able to take over.  But of course the powerful Jedi would not let that happen so he fought bravely. He needed help. That is how he found R2D2 and C3PO. So he let them come along.

Ezra was in his X-wing fighter and R2D2 is in the top of the X-wing. And he is helping Ezra see things that the pilot cannot see in the X-wing so if some one is coming to attack him he will be warned by the robot. The robot sometimes gets hit so the person driving the plane should know how to fix the robot and fix the plane.

My Life as an Ice Cream Sandwich

The book that I am reading is about this little girl and her name is Ebony Grace. She has a big mind and loves Space. Her mom's dad is Ebony's Gandaddy and he used to work at NASA. Ebony wants to be sent to space on a mission with her granddad to go to planet bom box in her imagination. Her mother said that Ebony had to go down to stay with her dad (her mom and dad are divorced). Finally her father said that he has had enough of Ebony's funny business and told her to stop talking about space because she would scare people. So she stops talking about space. In Harlem (that is where her daddy lives) she has some friends and they are called, The Nine Flavas. The Nine Flavas crew calls Ebony, Outer Space Ebony Grace. Which I think is mean. Back in Hutsundville (that is where her mom lives) her granddad is not doing so well. Ebony's dad has a friend named Lester and if you aren't careful he will sell you your own car. So Ebony's dad and Lester get into a fight. It has a very bad ending(the fight).

                                                                  I won't tell you the rest of 

                                                                the story because the book 

                                                                   won't be interesting but I hope

                                                                       You liked my blog!😉

The Week for Kids: Ancient Ball Court Unearthed in Mexico

I read an article in the Week for Kids and it is about a ball court that was uncovered. People used to play a mix of basket ball and soccer. And it is still played in Mexico today. The sport is called ulama. The people who play it wear special clothes.  Mayan and  Aztec cultures let their king show how  strong they are.  I wish the writer told me the rules of the game and how to play. Scientist might not of know how to play but the scientists might be able to ask the cultures how to play the game now.

Recipe for Adventure

This series I am reading is about two kids named Alfie and Emilia who have an aunt named Zia. Their aunt cooks magical recipes from different cities around the world like Paris, Hong Kong or Naples. However she even wrote about Philadelphia! They go to the different countries to have an experience and to see what it is like. And they have to tell a lie to the people there because if the people know what happened, they get into really big trouble. In Paris they almost got caught with saying their phone number wrong. The part of the book that really got me hooked is that the author gives a recipe or two recipes on how to make food at the end. And the food has to be from that country they go to. I have read Paris, Philadelphia, Naples and Hong Kong.
