Lots of Reading..


"The Girl Who Could Fly" by Victoria Forester... loved it because of a wonderful imaginative plot and a battle of good and evil...



"The Thirteen Treasures" by Michelle Harrison... good because of the evil fairies who play havoc with Tanya.
"Neil Flambe and the Aztec Abduction" by Kevin Sylvester. Not as good as the "Marco Polo Murders" as it jumps around quite a bit and you have to concentrate a bit more but still
very entertaining character. Neil is competing in a cooking contest in Mexico when his friend is kidnapped and he tries to find her before it is too late.

"We the Children" by Andrew Clement whom I love.. but this book feels very unfinished... like they wanted to do a series so just stopped in the middle but not even at a critical point.

Benjamin 's school is going to be demolished but on this particular morning the janitor presses an old coin into Benjamin's hand along with the instruction to save the school. And then the janitor dies. More of a mystery occurs as the assistant janitor is not whom he seems and is watching Benjamin and his friend Jill as they try to figure out how to stop the wrecking ball..
