I Dream of an Elephant Book Review



Title: I Dream of an Elephant
Author: Ami Rubinger
Illustrator: Ami Rubinger
Age of Reviewer: 5 Years Old 

Favorite Character:
 I liked the orange elephant because I like orange.

Why I liked this book:
I liked the funny part with the purple elephant.  It was funny cuz it showed just her bum. (Mom liked that the kids got to finish the sentence with the correct color, and it all rhymed.)

Why I didn't like this book:
Just nothing. I liked it all.

Clarice Bean, Don't Look Now Book Review

 


Title: Clarice Bean, Don't Look Now
Author: Lauren Child
Age of Reviewer: 10 Years Old 

Favorite Character:
I like Clarice Bean because she has a normal life like everyone else, and she's really funny.  She usually gets in trouble from her teacher at school because she just doesn't pay attention.  Her friend, Betty, moves away to a different place on the other side of the world and Clarice Bean misses her.  That's like me, missing one of my friends who moved to California.

Why I liked this book:
 I liked that Clarice Bean reads Ruby Redford books and kind of acts like a spy a little.  She heard talking behind the bike shed and she was listening to what they were saying without them knowing she was there.  Then she ran off because she heard a bully's voice and she thought something was happening, but she was wrong.  It was very spy-like.

Why I didn't like this book:
This book is thicker than the first Clarice Bean book so it took a long time for me to read it.

Ten Apples Up On Top Book Review



Title: Ten Apples Up On Top!
Author: Theo. LeSieg
Illustrator: Roy McKie
Age of Reviewer: 6 Years Old 

Favorite Character:
The tiger was my favorite because he could hold more apples than the other ones.

Why I liked this book:
 I liked when they be friends.  Because it's happy.  And I liked when the apples exploded.

Why I didn't like this book:
I wish there wasn't so much fighting.
