The Leanin Dog

This book is about a girl who is very lonely with her mother dead and her dad always out searching for food. Dessa Dean the girl finds a beautiful dog that saves her life and others too. Ever since her mother died, she was afraid to go outside. Some pages were happy and adventurous and some were so sad I almost cried. But don't let that little piece of info make you turn away. It gets really exciting the next few pages and so on. Will the Leanin Dog help her loneliness and get her outside again? Find out in the book The Leanin Dog.

Swordbird

This book was great. I couldn't put it down. The book is about two tribes of birds. The cardinals and the blue jays save birds all around the world by calling Swordbird, a great mythical creature in an old old book. A hawk was taking over the whole world getting slave birds and soldiers. Can the good birds stop him? Find out in the book Swordbird. I gave it four hearts because the beginning was hard to understand, but as you get closer to the middle it gets really good.     YYYY  

HATE THAT CAT

This book has some poems turned into a full story. The beginning of this book is sort of strange but when you get farther in you understand it more. I liked how the author described this particular story in poem. It is about a boy who thinks cats are mean and bad but soon gets a cat and realizes that cats aren't that bad. YYY
