Charlie Bone and The Time Twister by Jenny Nimmo
I recommend this book to the kids that like to read about fantasies. I like this book because it has adventures. You get to read about the people who are endowed with special powers, and who are related to the Red King, the person who gives them powers.
Review by Lalise of Strathmore
Star style by Sienna Mercer – from the My sister the vampire series.
I like the way she describes the characters as some of them are vampires. It is fun and exciting to read.

Warriors: The Lost Warrior by Erin Hunter
This is an awesome manga. In the Warriors book Dawn, a beloved warrior, Greystripe, gets captured. This is his story of finding his way back home. The start of a three-part manga series, it really shows how much Greystripe means to Firestar and ThunderClan, and to StarClan. This is his story of a new life, new rivals, new friends… and a new love. 4 stars.
Review by Alex of Johnsonville
Have you ever wondered how Scourge became Scourge? How he became a blood-thirsty killer? Maybe it is the last thing you thought about. His life wasn’t always how it seems. Every cat gets to tell its story, and this is Scourge’s hour. This is an awesome manga! Erin Hunter has worked and thought hard on this book. It’s amazing! 5 stars.
Warriors: Omen of the Stars #4: Sign of the Moon by Erin Hunter
This is a very gripping book. It has all sorts of secrets packed inside, and unexpected surprises! Some cats from ThunderClan go back to visit the Tribe, where Brook and Stormfur have a happy future. Jayfeather finds something big, and an old friend dies. 5 stars. You rock - Erin Hunter!!!
