Book Recommendation « Thread Started on Dec 21, 2003, 8:42pm »
i recommend the book Out of The Dust. I recommend this book because it's really interesting and a really good book. It's about this girl who has to live in a broken down house and has to suffer with dust because it doesn't rain a lot. But then her mom dies along with her baby brother. It's really sad, but very educational.
Don't cry because it is over,smile because it happened.

the book i recommend is call The Serpents Children by Laurence Yep. I recommend this book because it's about how a chinese family somewhere in China lived through bad times but they still stick together n this is a fictional story. also there are interesting parts, this book is for those who like to read books about Chinese immigrants and other stuff related to Chinese people.

i recommend The Time Bike by Jane Langton because haven't you ever wonder about time? How about trying to back in time or go forward? You could change the world if you could go back years ago or you could also mess everything up....But this book has all of those adventures and Langston describes every detail precisely and you feel like you're next to the character and feels what he/she feels. Even though I'm not done with the book, it attracts me so much I don't want to put the book down

I recommend the book The Boy Next Door by R.L. Stine to those who likes mystery and horror. This book is about how a boy has problems in his mind and hates girls who ~{!0~}behave improperly~{!1~} or dress improperly. This book has a mixture of mystery when the girls try to find out who the killer is that is killing girls. It is horror because the way the killer thinks and the way that he talks to himself is pretty freaky. For myself, I enjoyed the book because it was interesting and it is a Fear Street book.
