I read "A Llama in the Family" by Joanna Hurwitz. All Adam wants is a mountain bike. But what does he get? A Llama! Adam is surprised and it makes a great story. I think it should be longer. But it's a great book anyway.

Another 10 year-old:
I read "From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" by E.L. Konigsburg. This book is about two children that ran away from home and stayed in the Metropolitan Museum. They find and do many interesting things in the museum, than find their way to Mrs. Frankweiler. What I like about it is that the characters do funny and sometimes ridiculous things, and they eventually get what they want to know.

Another 11 year-old:
I read "His Banner Over Me" by Jean Little. This book is about Flora Gauld who comes to Canada from Taiwan with her family to visit relatives. After 5 years the parents decide to go back home and leave Flora and her 2 sisters and brother to attend school while staying with their aunt, uncle and cousins. I liked this book because it is emotional and the author describes Flora's emotions very well. You feel like you are right there with her.

Author: Steve Perry, title n/a.
Comments: This book was of the science-fiction genre and it had lots of action. The suspense fueled your imagination of what would happen next. It captivated you and kept you reading until you found out the answers to all of your questions. I thought this book was very good but it was very lengthy. It was about 1 1/4" thick and the type was about 12-point. I would recommend this book to sci-fi readers and ones who have a lot of time on their hands. This book would probably be for the older readers. It also provides a challenge for the first time-big book reader.
Recommendations: The X-Wing series by Michael A. Stackpole.
The Tales From.... series by Kevin J. Anderson and other writers.
The Young Jedi Knights series by Kevin J. Anderson and Rebecca Moesta.
