Bridge to Terabithia

By Katherine Paterson

Blurb by Matthew

Bridge to Terabithia is about a 5th grader named Jess, and in the beginning of the book he wanted to be the fastest kid in the grade. Then a came Leslie, a girl that is rich but doesn’t have a T.V. Leslie winds up beating everybody in the race and even Jess. But sooner or later they both become the best of friends and make a place called Terabithia where their dreams come true in a way. In Terabithia, Jess and Leslie fight imaginary shadow monsters and save Terabithia. Bridge to Terabithia was a wonderful book for those who like sad tales of two friends depending on each other. It was a pretty sad book and if I were Jess I would be also terrified.

The Convicts

The Convicts

By Iain Lawrence

Blurb By:  Matthew

Angry with Mr. Goodfellow for his family’s misfortunes, Tom Tim seeks revenge. They are a pour family that needed money.  But in his path there are threats and gang bangers that think he is someone known as Smasher a person they really dislike. Now they have sentenced him to a juvenile detention, and now he is stuck on a ship in the middle of nowhere and he needs to get off. The Convicts was a great book because it was mysterious. It was kind of hard to understand at first but in the middle and end was great. The voice of the characters had a really mysterious voice. People who are fans of mystery and action should read this book and will enjoy it just like me!

My Poems

Awesome

Games

Cinquain

By Matthew

You get so sucked in.

People are trying to beat you.

You just want to win.

You’re just waiting for your cue.

Freedom

Definition

By Matthew

Freedom is kids out of school, going to the park to enjoy life to the fullest.

Freedom is spirits that are relieved and free for the wind to carry them.

Freedom is life.

Camping Time

Limerick

By Matthew

My family and I were out camping,

And there were butterflies in my stomach.

I slowly walked outside,

Seeing the moon waving goodnight.

I slowly smiled and went in my tent.

My Favorite Brother

My choice

By Matthew

Leo is my favorite brother of all,

He will help you when you call.

He could be stubborn sometimes,

But he is nice most of the times.

When you get hurt he will care.

In games he is always fair.

You can tell he is a good brother.

I bet you would want another.

Even though he is small,

He is the best brother of all.

Red is for Remembrance

Red is for Remembrance

By Laurie Faria Stolarz

Blurb by Matthew

Red is for Remembrance about a girl that is depressed about her boyfriend’s death after the tragedy. Now Stacey is stuck in college learning boring stuff and at the same time hoping that Jacob is still alive. Now her nightmares are back and she is dreaming about a girl that she must help in order to save a mysterious boy. To save the boy it takes all the magic they have got. Could this mysterious boy be Jacob, you have to read it to find out.

This book was a really fun book to read because of all the suspense and violence in it. Some content like violence maybe inappropriate for some people but most people probably are going to love this series. But you must read the first couple of books. It is the Blue is for Nightmares series. There are five books total but I haven’t read the last one but  still I recommend this series. You will love this series it you like suspense and magic.
