Primer written by Jennifer Muro, and Thomas Krajewski, and illustrated by Gretel Lusky
When I first picked up the book Primer from the Great Brook Valley branch library, I wasn’t really thinking of anything other than it was just very colorful- but after I read the first chapter I was hooked and wanted to read more. The girl Ashley in the book was very different and unique in a great way though. This book is very adventurous, cool, and vibrant. But I kind of felt bad for her that her dad was in jail and at the end of the book I was very cautious because her dad said to the TV he would see her soon. Now I’m hoping that means there’s going to be a next book so I can read it because I love this book! It’s now my favorite book ever!🙂

A dog goes to the ocean and causes trouble.
Favorite part: The dog stuffs litter in a sea monster’s mouth.

Star Wars Jedi Academy: Return of the Padawan by Jeffrey Brown
It was good. It was funny. I laughed out loud. I enjoyed the Jedi tests. It was funny because Roan keeps bumping into stuff when he uses the force. Roan had to learn not to close his eyes when he uses the force. I learned not to be a bully.
