Dork Diaries

Dork Diaries

By Rachel Renee Russell

This book is about a girl named Nikki. In this book Nikki has to ice skate  in gym for a fundraiser and whoever was the crowd favorite got a  $10,000 check. Nikki is embarrassed a lot because her dad drives a van with a termite on top of it.

One event that happened in this book is that Nikki finds out her crush Brandon works at Furry Friends, the pet adoption place. Another  event is that their princess sugar plum costumes get taken and they get locked in a room but get out and go out as clowns.

I really liked this book the reason why is because it's funny.It is funny is because there is always something wrong with Nikki everyday. I really think if  you like drama  that you should read this book and maybe the rest  of the series.

Stick cat Had no ideas at first but Edith did, she jumped up and said I know and said we could use these napkins and use them as parachutes because there building was higher. Stick cat said there is no way I'm doing that are you crazy. No are you Edith said. No stick cat said but I have a plan we could use the napkin to slide down on to Hazels window. Edith said ok but my idea is better. So then they went on with stick cats plan Edith grabbed 2 napkins and went to the window.

Fablehaven: Level 4.8

Dinosaurs Before Dark

Over the summer I read Dinosaurs Before Dark written by Mary Pope Osborne. It is a fantasy book about this brother and sister named Jack and Annie who find a tree house in the woods with a lot of books inside. Annie is a very brave and daring person while Jack is a little bit more nervous and scared throughout the story. Annie is brave because in the book she is the first to climb the rope ladder and explore the treehouse while Jack seems too nervous to follow her up.

One of the most important events in the story is when Jack opens a dinosaur book and the treehouse begins to spin. When it finishes spinning they realize that they are back in the time of the dinosaurs. Another main event in this story is when they are being chased by a dinosaur that could potentially eat them!

Finally, I really enjoyed this book because I felt as though the story came to life. Dinosaurs are one of my favorite animals and this story shares some facts about them that I was unaware of. I would recommend this book to others because it was an easy read that keeps you wanting more! I am very excited to continue the series.
