Zoe Flick's book review of 100 CUPBOARDS by N. D. Wilson
In 100 Cupboards, Henry moves from Boston, Massachusetts to Henry, Kansas to his aunt's and uncle's because his parents died. He couldn't stand all the scratching and thumping on his bedroom wall. He peeled of the plaster and found 100 cupboards that lead to different places. Then, Henrietta, Henry's cousin, got lost in the cupboards. Henry did manage to find her, but they got a bit of a surprise when they got back.
I recommend this book because it's action-packed. It's also really suspenseful. Everyone likes an action-packed and suspenseful book, right?

Zoe Flick's book review of BUNNICULA by Deborah and James Howe
Have you ever heard of a fanged rabbit? Apparently, in Bunnicula, there is. When Pete, Toby, Mrs. and Mr. Monroe go to the movies, and Toby finds a bunny under his seat while watching Dracula,Chester, the cat, became suspicious. Chester decides to find out why all the vegetables are turning white.
My favorite part is when Chester takes Mr. Monroe's shaving towel, ties it around his neck, to look like a vampire and warn the family about the "dangers" of Bunnicula. He starts to growl and lie down like a .... well, like a thing.
I recommend this book to people who are up for a good mystery. I also rate this book a five star story. You actually might think that Bunnicula is really a vampire....

book review by Anzhela Page
HELP! I'M TRAPPED IN OBEDIENCE SCHOOL, written by Todd Strasser, is an entertaining story full of laughs. It is humorous because the author turns a human into a dog and a dog into a human. Plus, each chapter is more exciting and funnier to read than the last!
The main character, Jake Sherman, together with his friends Andy and Josh, accidentally press a button on a machine that turns Andy into a dog and the family dog, Lance, into a human. Andy now sticks out his tongue and pants, chases cats, and perks up his ears at lots of sounds. Meanwhile, Lance eats human food, watches TV, and walks upright. The boys need to keep the problem a secret and figure out how to switch them back. At the end of a tiring few days, the boys finally solve the problem and everyone is back to normal. Or are they?
In my opinion, HELP! I'M TRAPPED IN OBEDIENCE SCHOOL is a five star story. Everyone from the age of eight to one hundred will enjoy reading this bow-WOW book!
