Kids Books - Adventure Books

This book is really good. It is a good book about friendship and being loyal to them to. This is a good book for people who like monsters and magic. I'm reading the series now and it is even better than this one.

Although the book progresses mostly on a lighter note, “Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer” focuses the spotlight on many taboo subjects for young adult novels. With central topics like feminism, racism, illegal immigration, political outbreaks, drug abuse, and child abuse, John Grisham manages to effectively prod at touchy subjects with so much subtlety within each subplot, that even with lots of murder, smoking, and court cases scattered throughout the plot, through the eyes of thirteen-year-old Theodore Boone, “Kid Lawyer” is surprisingly appropriate. And with all of these dark themes, it comes as no surprise that there is indeed a lot to learn in this book. Each subplot takes the reader into a new and unexplored road, and although a suspenseful cliffhanger is presented towards the end of the book, the author still manages to quietly tie all of these themes up. This results in the reader feeling like they’ve actually read a complete book instead of a book with several different subplots, although that is precisely how it feels while reading it. John Grisham’s “Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer” is many different things. Sometimes it’s a fight for justice, sometimes it’s a heart-wrenching story of family situation infused with drug and child abuse, sometimes it’s a guidebook on the court’s rules, and sometimes it’s about a murder-witnessing illegal immigrant’s unwillingness to provide the town with justice for fear of getting caught in the middle.

I do not recommend reading this book in public if you want to be thought of as sane: you will laugh with EVERY page, and as soon as you stop laughing you'll just start rolling on the floor again, until you're terrified and shocked and crying-- yet somehow still laughing uncontrollably. When sixteen-year-old Clary Fray (or is that even her real name...?) is thrusted into a whole new world where 'all the stories are true'--demons, werewolves, vampires, faeries-- she realizes that her mundane life to this point has been full of lies. She is a Shadowhunter, though she was not raised that way, and soon learns how to act like one while still preserving some of her own childhood innocence. She meets people with unforgettable personalities (You can't not love Luke, Magnus, Jace...)...and if you just turn the pages and read on, so will you. To me, this was a young adult version of the Harry Potter series--not that you can't read Harry Potter as a young adult :-) --with just the things a book needs: unpredictable plot twists, and much longing to be in this fictional world alongside these lovable characters.

“Two little dark figures, looking up. Are they looking at me? Is it him? This far away there's only one way to know. I point to the sky.” -Ally condie crossed. Do you like adventure, romance and a mystery? Then, Crossed by Ally Condie is for you because it's all of those things! This book is set on the rims of a dystopian society of the near future The protagonists Cassia and Ky switch off narrating the story. As a reader this structure worked well for me but in the end it got a little confusing because it became similar.The antagonist is the society. The plot in general was very engaging and suspenseful, I didn’t want to put it down. Always full of twists and turns as great or better than the first book in the trilogy this is the second book in the trilogy and makes me want to read the last one to know what happens. This book made me think about our world today and how we could have a similar society at some point.

After reading the summary for this book, I was ready to dive in with some anticipation for a good book. To start off, the details and imagery in this book were creative and thoughtful. There was so much excitement in this novel, and it felt like the danger would never end. One thing, however, that I wish the book had was more time to develop. I felt that the whole plot was a bit rushed, and that by the end of the book, I didn't really know the characters better than when it had started. This book is less a story, and more an event to tell about, and that's why I feel like I enjoyed it less. It is an easy read, but might be mildly scary for younger readers, so I would recommend the book for ages 8+

If you like stories of survival against all odds, where a group of people must fight nature herself in an epic contest of wills, then there is, in fact, a book for you. The Swiss Family Robinson by Johann David Wyss was published in 1812, but the age does not make it boring; it does quite the contrary. When the Robinsons fall victim to a shipwreck, they must fight in an epic battle of nature versus man for mere survival. Follow the story of this eighteenth century family as they salvage the wreck, build the magnificent dwelling of Felsenheim, discover, and thrive on the desolate island that is their verdant prison. One of the major conflicts is definitely the first rainy season they encounter, full of fierce hurricanes and storms. The other would be their constant battle against massive snakes, lions, and hyenas. The turning point in the book is when the family finally gets to the island from the wreck. The family faces a persisting threat of death on their remote tropical island, the location of which is not specified. The Swiss Family Robinson is exciting, and breathtaking in the description. What I like about the book is how consistent the author stays with the region they are in, (native plants, wildlife, trees, etc.,) and how easy it is to picture the island.

The book is played properly to the 6th novel, great graphics throughout the book. it has one mistake with it but everything else is awesome. it is about Moonwatcher and her friends to stop icicle and Queen scarlet, and find the lost city of the night. Hope you enjoy as much as i did. Happy reading.

The Alcatraz Escape is about Emily and James playing Garrison Griswold's newest game, Unlock the Rock. The game is very challenging and Emily and her friends have to work hard to solve all the puzzles.

AMAZING! I love everything about the book!

I started reading the Captain Underpants when I was in 3rd Grade. Now I'm going into the the 8th Grade and I practically grew up with the Captain Underpants series. The tenth installment in the series picks up right where the ninth novel left off, with the the time-traveling Tippy Tinkletrousers apparently having defeated the jovial hero. Luckily, the good guys and the bad guys both have access to time-traveling machines, so the story forms an intricate web of action that was entertaining to the reader. Over the course of the book, the characters relive historical events like the Big Bang, the extinction of dinosaurs, the start of the Ice Age, the world's first comic, and more. My favorite part of the books are the Flip-O-Ramas. They're actually really cool, and it makes the book seem more visual, even with the comical illustrations. I love Dav Pilkey's books, but I feel like this is the last Captain Underpants book that I will be reading in quite a long time. It had all the outrageous humor that I had remembered, and even though it's not in my reading range anymore, I somewhat enjoyed it. ~ifeelbookish
