__Rover Saves Christmas__ By Brian Brodye

This book takes place in winter in Ireland.This book is about four kids named Jimmy,Robby,Victoria,and Kayla that go to their back yard and see something running around. Santa needs thehelp of Rover the dog.He needs Rover to be a reindeer.

This book is really good. My favorite part is when Kayla slides down the stair railing and hits the wall,but she is okay because she has ten shirts on a puffycoat,snow boots ,and gloves.I recommend this book to ages 8-40 I recommend it to this age group because I'm 10 and my mom is 38 and we both laughed out loud.It's such a funny book!

About The Characters: Jimmy- he is brave funny mostly short.He is these things because he is not afraid of anything.He tells great jokes.he is like 4 foot 2 inches Robby-he is tall he is really smart mostly he is old .he is 5 foot 11 inches.he knows all his math just like that.he is 19. Kayla-she is so cute.she is cute because all she knows to say is who are you. Victoria- she is also cute because she only knows how to say bum-bum.

__Heads or Tails__ By Jack Gantos

I read this book __Heads or Tails__ by Jack Gantos. This is a book about a kid named Jack, who has a diary and writes about his life. His life is very weird. He lives in a run-down rental home. The rental home has a canal in their backyard,and there is an alligator that ate their dog. Jack has one brother,one sister, and a baby on the way. The brothers name is Pete and the sisters name is Betsy. Pete is a adventurous little boy who brakes his arm and he still does dangerous tricks like when he jumped out of his tree house window and landed on his butt,and didn't get hurt.Pete is a very risking little boy.Betsy on the other hand is a stuck up know it all,and she always has to be right no matter what.She had to be right when Jack thought UFOs were real.Jack is a boy that can imagine anything,for a example the UFO he can pictured the UFO just sweeping him up into space,and seeing the alien's. I think it's a great humorous book with great details. I like this book because it's not an ordinary book like any other book. The people aren't ordinary either. The people aren't ordinary because they do crazy weird things, like hiding in a tree drunk with a knife, or ridding down a slide on a skate board, and flying through a hoola-hoop on fire. I recommend this book to ages 10 or up.I think you should read this book because I think it's a funny book.It's a funny book because the things the people do in the story.Like the guy drunk in the tree with a knife.do you think he will try to kill Pete and Jack or will Pete and Jack get away. To find out more read the book.
