    The book The Westing Game was a slow book to read. In my opinion this book was very boring. The author wrote in a view of multiple groups and often in the view for a single person. The author had extra fluff that was not relevant to the story. For example, “J.J. Ford was the biggest tipper in Sunset Towers… “I saw someb-b-b…” Chris Theodorakis was too excited to stutter out the news to his brother.” (page 14) The constant switching of characters and character groups without a well written…

    the waddle of a very happy penguin. I stopped for a fleeting second to admire the world around me. Rows among rows of the thing I loved most, books. My tiny body gazed up at the shining lights that surrounded me, practically squealing with delight at the sight of the thousands of books that covered the walls. Unfortunately however those thousands of books I could not read yet, so I waddled over to the flamboyantly painted red fire truck practically screaming for attention. Along my little…

    once said, “The books that the world calls inmortal are books that show the world its own shame.” If every book had some kind of blood or speak of death etc, we would have almost every book in the world banned because of it. Some books are banned because opinions or religious beliefs are different. Mice and Men has been on the list for banned books on the list repeatedly and some people still believe that it should be a banned book but I believe it shouldn’t be a banned book. In the book, George…

    school. On this particular vacation, I had gotten my hands on one of those books that you just can’t put down. I quickly learned the art of walking and reading at the same time. I was good at avoiding collisions with other people. Correction: other people were good at avoiding collisions with me. They basically stayed out of my way, which reduced the risk of a collision. Although I occasionally peered over the edge of my book to anticipate and calculate my route and its obstacles, the people…

    reading anything except books accommodating fairies. Otherwise, I couldn’t sit still long enough to get through the first chapter. Through school so far, we hadn’t done a significant amount of independent reading, but fourth grade was a fresh year with brand new expectations. I sauntered into fourth grade without a worry in sight, hoping to continue my weekly reads of The Rainbow Fairies. However, fourth grade wasn’t how I imagined. When it came time to choose a silent reading book, I searched…

    experiences One of the first books I remember reading is The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. I remember reading this book with my mom often, and was so intrigued by Eric Carle’s use of his tissue paper art to illustrate the book. After we read this book I wanted to see more of this artist’s work so we bought many of his books. The second most read book that he wrote that I remember reading was Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? My mom would constantly bring home books by him and we…

    like to disagree why books are constantly being banned or censored but no one can person really have a good understanding why they are banned. People say that books influence our thinking a lot, well maybe too a little too much. Somebody assassinated John Lennon for being a phony which was a word used by the main character a lot in the Catcher in the Rye. When the police asked why well the assassins showed the book Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. Maybe this is why this book was absolutely…

    couldn’t read something because others your age weren’t mature enough to read it? You’d be upset, right? The school board wants to do something similar, they want to ban books that “aren’t suitable” for young readers, just because they think that most middle schoolers aren’t mature enough to read about sensitive subjects. I believe that books with sensitive topics should not be banned from public school libraries, because it should be up to the students’ parents what they are and aren’t allowed…
