It was such an amazing book! It was so hard to stop reading it! My favorite part in the book was when ollie had to do the dance that her mom made her do. When ollie tries to make friends she finds out that Nina is part Thai as well. This was a very interesting book that I hope other people will read too.

"Swim Team" by Johnnie Christmas is a graphic novel about a girl named Bree who just moved to Florida. Bree is very thrilled for the first day at her new school, Enith Brigitha Middle School, but joined the only elective that fits her schedule, Swim 101. She detests swimming and even worse, everyone else can swim except her. She hates that she can't swim, and her neighbor, Ms. Etta, begins to give her swimming lessons. Surprisingly, she makes the team and she gets better each day. See what consequences she faces. Overall, this book is fun and an easy read. I didn't like graphic novels, but "Swim Team" changed my mind.

Harbor me by Jacqueline Woodson is a fiction book. The book was mainly about the narrator of the story, Haley, and her discussions with her friends. As part of a special class, Haley and her six classmates go to the ARTT (A Room To Talk) room every Friday to talk amongst themselves (without a teacher). At first, all the children have no idea what to talk about in the room. However, as time goes on, they start to open up about their lives and the many problems in the world. Talking with each other helped the children feel better about their own problems and even make new friends. Personally, I would rate this book a four out of five because the book itself was very meaningful and thoughtful but I think that it was a pretty slow book in comparison to other books that I have read before.

Great

I like it because I love fireflies. The pictures looked cute and nice. I like a lot how the book ended. I like it because Luke saves the other fireflies.

I love how in each escape room, there is a problem or conflict that the characters face to struggle. It is either with their friendship or just trying to get out of the room itself.

One Christmas Eve, Dr. Julius Kane and his kids, Sadie and Carter, use the Rosetta Stone to [accidentally] unleash five gods. The kids' uncle, Amos, takes them to Brooklyn House. When the 2 kids leave Brooklyn House they will learn spells, escape demon fruit bats and fight gods! This is my favorite book because I like Egyptian Mythology!

I would give this book a 5 star rating because I love how in this picture book there is mini chapters. Also I love how in each mini chapter there is a new story about John, Gramps, and Grams!

I did not really like this book. Because I feel that the author made it a little bit confusing to read because of the perspectives.
