| I have always loved Roald Dahl's amazing stories, and this one was just as good as his others. I love the typical Dahlian nonsensical words that aren't fully nonsensical (my favorites being `babblement' and `catasterous disastrophe'). The book is written in a very child-friendly way, but can be enjoyed by all ages. Another particular part I liked was the theory about age, that humans are technically only half their given age, since half of our lives are pretty much slept away. It makes perfect ... Read More: |

| Speak is another book that I dove into knowing virtually nothing about it from the start. I knew it was in the "adolescent lit" category and that the narrator spent some time doing some artwork trying to express herself. I was not at all ready for the deeply emotional and heart wrenching story of the novel. This isn't by any means a piece of adolescent "fluff" like the flood of teen books flooding the market in recent years. Rather it is an intense exploration of a teenager struggling with alienation, self-worth, ... Read More: |

| This is the final book in the Starcatchers trilogy by Berry and Pearson. It was a satisfying and very complete conclusion. It was also a fast-paced, fun read.

The Mollusks are attacked by a vicious band of tribesmen called the Scorpions. Back in London, the Aster family is having their own issues. The mysterious contact that used to tip off the ...

| Man I love this book. But I always find it in the juvenile section. Have these people READ the stuff that happens? There is at least 1 death every 5 pages! Even if it's cute animals doing it, death is death. Good book though. Highly recommended. In my top 10 favorite list. |

| This is the rare instance where I've read the book but haven't seen the movie. You know, some stories are better in book form and some are better in movie form. After reading James and the Giant Peach, I believe it works better as a movie. It has more action than it does ideas, and I enjoyed the illustrations much more than the actual text, unlike Alice In Wonderland or Winnie The Pooh.
Dahl's prose seems a bit clunky in my opinion, but at least it should be easy for kids to understand. It's ugly in form, but not in function. It doesn't ... Read More: |
