A) So far, 126 people have bought the book Miracle On 49th Street by Mike Lupica. The first 200 people get it for free. This WILL blow you away!!! So buy, buy, and buy, this book would make you want to fly.
B) The characters are Molly, her mom, Josh Cameron, his agent, Mattie, L.J., Sam, Kimmy, Barbara, her husband, and Bill Evens. The setting takes place in Boston, at Molly’s house, at Josh’s house, a hotel, at Barbara’s home, and at the children’s auditorium for basketball. The problem of the story is that Molly suspects that a famous basketball player named Josh Cameron is her father. Remember, the first 200 people get it for free!!!!
C) The Celtics passed the ball to Josh at half court. At first, he didn’t even dribble. Just stood there in his cool way, like he knew something that no one else in this loud, crazy place knew, looking up at the clock over the Celtics baskets. Twelve seconds. Ten. Now six. He made his move then, beating the man guarding him with his very first dribble, flying past him, looking as if he were on his way to the basket, ready to go up against the 76ers’ biggest guys once more, ready to beat them and the clock at the same time. Only he didn’t drive, seeing that the 76er’ had cut him off. Instead, he stopped about 10 feet from the basket, doing that even though he’d been going at full speed. Put the breaks on so hard, Molly could hear the screech of car tires. Three seconds left. He went up into the air. He was going to do it!!!! Go on and find out what happens.
D) If you so far like this book, buy it. Callers are standing by. The first 200 people get it for free. If you don’t call in time, still buy the book. Thank you.
''One of the best books of all time'' -Logan Learman(actor from Percy Jackson series) This year Percy doesn't get his way into trouble until he gets into a dodge ball death game against people who know the truth. Percy then heads to camp to find out that someone has poisoned Thalia's tree( dead daughter of Zeus). Percy , Annabeth , and Tyson Percy's new half brother go a all wild adventure to The Sea Of Monsters to save Thalia's tree so that the camp will survive. What will happen find out in Percy Jackson The Sea Of Monsters. Pg.278-279 She wasn't a camper. I didn't recognize her from any of the cabins. And yet I had the strangest feeling I’d seen her before….. ‘’It’s true,” Grover said, panting from his run up hill. ‘’I can’t believe…” . She was clearly a half blood, whether she was a camper or not. I could sense that just from one touch. I didn’t understand why everyone was acting so scared. I took her by the shoulders and lifted her into sitting position, resting her head on my shoulder. No one moved, not even Chiron. They were all too stunned. Then the girl took a shaky breath. She coughed and opened her eyes. Her irises were startingly blue-electric blue. The girl stared at me in bewilderment, shivering and wild- eyed.”Who-“ ‘’I’m Percy ,” I said. “ You’re safe now.” “Strangest dream…” ‘’ It’s okay.” ‘’Dying.” “No,” |I assumed her. You’re okay. What’s Your name?” That’s when I knew. Even before she said it. The girl’s blue eyes stared into mine, and I understood what the golden fleece quest had been about. The poisoning of the tree. Everything, Kronos had done it to bring another chess piece into play-another chance to control the prophecy. Even Chiron, Annabeth, and Grover, who should’ve been celebrating this moment, were too shocked, thinking about what it might mean for the future. “ I am Thalia ,” The girl said. ‘’ Daughter of Zeus.” Now if you see very hideous creatures attacking you or your best friend is a satyr then your a half-blood of The mighty greek gods Marshawn Frencha Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Sea Of Monsters
Miles Jackson Joes dad brings home some ugly lawn gnomes .His dad sets them up on the yard. The gnomes come alive and run through Moose’s dad’s yard and Joes dog gets blamed for it. Joe sets up a steak out and he catches the gnomes but his parents won’t believe him. Then Moose asked Joe what was he doing . They wait for the gnomes. The gnomes catch them. Joe tells his dad to come with him to catch the gnomes. Dad catches the gnomes and they were sent back. Apart that might make someone want to read this book is, ‘Well, I think the ornaments are cool,’ I replied. Someone had to defend Dad. ‘Come on, guys’ Dad urged, starting down the driveway. ‘Let’s go see if a new shipment of ornaments has come in.’ Mindy and I trudged down the sidewalk after Dad. As we followed him we thought- no big deal. It’s almost dinner time. We’ll just glance over at the ornaments at the store. We had no idea that we were about to start the most horrifying adventure of our lives. This is the way the story ended. Joe finally showed his dad that the lawn gnomes were actually alive. Chip and Hap argued about why they got caught. But if you could imagine it that would look like two little upside-down ice cream cones fighting.
Reading Part The book you are holding in your hands right now-assuming that you are, in fact , holding this book, and that you have only two hands- is one of two in the world that will show you the difference between the word “nervous” and “anxious”. The other book of course, is the dictionary, and if I were you I would read that book instead. Like this book, the dictionary shows you that the word “nervous” means “worried about something” –you might feel nervous, for instance, if you were served prune ice cream for dessert, because you would be worried that it would taste awful- whereas the word “anxious” means troubled by disturbing suspense, which you might feel if you were served a live alligator for dessert, because you would be troubled by the disturbing suspense about whether you would eat your dessert or it would eat you. But unlike this book, the dictionary also discusses words that are far more pleasant to contemplate. The word “bubble” is in the dictionary, for instance, as is the word “peacock”, the word “vacation”, and “the “ “author’s” “execution” “has” “been “canceled”, which make up a sentence that is always pleasant to hear. So if you were to read the dictionary, rather than this book, you could skip the parts about “nervous” and “anxious” and read about things that wouldn’t keep you all night long, weeping and tearing out your hair. But this book is not the dictionary, and if you were to skip the parts about “nervous” and “anxious” in this book, you would be skipping the most pleasant sections in the entire story. Nowhere in this book will you find the words “bubble”, “peacock”, “vacation”, or, unfortunately for me, anything about an execution being canceled. Instead, I’m sorry to say you will find the words “grief’, “despair”, and “woeful” as well as the phrases “dark passage way,” “Count Olaf in disguise”, and “the Baudelaire orphans were trapped,” plus an assortment of miserable words and phrases that I cannot bring myself to write down. In short, reading a dictionary might make you feel nervous, because you would worry about finding it very boring, but reading this book will make you feel anxious, because you will be troubled by the disturbing suspense in which the Baudelaire orphans find themselves, and if I were you I would drop this book right out of your two or more hands and curl up in a dictionary instead, because all the miserable words I must describe these unfortunate events are about to reach you eyes. Summary Three orphans, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are placed in the hands of their new guardians, Jerome and Esme Squalor by their parent’s bank accountant, Mr. Poe in 667 Dark Avenue. Within the chapters of this story, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire encounter a darkened staircase, a red herring, some friends in a dire situation, three mysterious initials, , a liar with an evil scheme , a guardian who works with the villain, and a secret passage way. Conclusion A Series of Unfortunate Events has been printed in 41 different languages, selling at least fifty-five million copies as of May 2007. Based on the series of bestselling books, you are invited to discover a world filled by imagination, ruled by invention, and strung together by a series of unfortunate events; I present you A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book the Sixth, The Ersatz Elevator. -Carlos
Christina goes to school off the cost of Main on an island where she is forced to take cover inside an abandon house after ignoring a “no wandering” rule. Deadly fog rolled in off the Atlantic Ocean and she was in trouble. With nowhere to escape she is required to survive on her own terrified, cold and hungry in a haunted house. Will she survive? Will she lose her mind? Will the Fog kill her? As with most horror stories somebody always thinks that they can get away with doing something they’re not supposed to be doing and survive like a little dare devil. After days of staying inside the haunted house the fog clears up and Christina leaves safely. I think Christina has learned her lesson. Always obey the rules! Favorite part “In the moon light the cupola glittered. She flicked the flashlight upwards and the glass turned black, reflecting like a mirror. Suddenly a huffing was screaming at her now, FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The ghost of the sea captain’s bride stood white frozen by

B) So far Meg Falconer has escaped from her capturers and is now in the wilderness fighting for her life. Her older brother Aiden Falconer and FBI Agent Emmanuel Harris are disobeying orders and are now searching for this young girl in the middle of a deadly blizzard, but will they get there in time before her own parents take off with what they think is the 3 million dollar ransom money to get their daughter back? As Meg searches for help and is recaptured by her kidnappers the FBI is trying to figure out why the only ally the Falconers have had since the parents were arrested lied to them. Could be that he is working with the kidnappers, or is he keeping a secret that the Falconers already know, but just haven’t figured out yet? This action packed story takes place in the woods, a cabin, the Falconer home, and a coal mine. The main characters are Margaret Falconer, Aiden Falconer, FBI Agent Emmanuel Harris, and Mike Sorenson, and John and Louise Falconer. Kidnappers Tiger, Spidey, Mickey, and Rufus Sehorn.
C) “It’s a collection for the ransom of a kidnapped girl-Margaret Falconer,” Sorens9on told her. “I need to know of a withdrawal has been made.” “He could hear the clicking of the keyboard as the woman searched for the right records. “ I don’t see anything,” she replied finally. “How recent was the transaction are we talking about?” “Within the last twenty-four hours. It would be a large withdrawal-something one the boarder of 3million dollars.” “3 million dollars!” the supervisor blurted. “No that’s quite impossible. I’m showing a balance of just under 1,000.” “Really? The agent asked bewildered. “They were trying to raise 3 million!” “That maybe so,” she told him, “but, unless there’s a change in the rate of donations, that kind of money will never be there.” “Are you sure you have the right account”? It’s a man named Rufus Sehorn. He might be using his Internet name- Blog Hog.” “We don’t have any name at all,” the supervisor informed him. “The only contact we have is and email address- user53418@privacynet.mc” it was as if the dazzling sun had appeared on the horizon after a long, dark night. User53418@pivacynet.mc Dot-mc! Macao! This was the secret address that had been sending the ransom demands to the Blog Hog site! Rufus Sehorn had been emailing himself!
D) Want to find out what happens at the end of this story? Well I’m not telling you, so that means you’ll have to go by this book just like the other 116 people that are in lover with this series. Well what are you waiting for go out now and buy and find out what happens!!!!!!
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a swamp like a werewolf? If so then you should read Goosebumps Werewolf of Fever swamp. The story is about a boy named Grady, who was dragged from his home in Florida by his parents to live near a swamp because they wanted to study animals to find out how well they will adapt to other environments. Grady was feeling like an experiment himself. Will Blake, a new friend of Grady's, starts to feed him scary stories about things that happens in the swamp, but somethings a little strange about Will. Grady adopts a dog for security and friendship. There's something horrible happening in Fever Swamp. It started with strange howling at night. Everyone thinks Grady's dog is responsible. After all, he looks like a wolf. Most dogs don't howl at the moon. Or disappear at midnight. Or change into scary creatures when the moon is full. Or do they? Page: 17 My favorite part I hit the ground hard, landing on my elbows and knees. My heart leaped into my mouth. I tasted blood. "Get up! Get up!" Emily was screaming. "It - it's got me!" I cried in a tight, trembling voice. The fluttering in my chest had become a pounding. again, I tasted blood. I rasied my eyes to see Emily laughing Laughing? "It's just a tree root," she said, pointinng. I followed the direction of her finger But what was the blood I tasted? I felt my aching lip. I had bitten it when I fell.
The main characters in Lost and Found are Darcy, Jamee, Tarah, Cooper, Mom, and Dad. The setting takes place at Darcy's home, at Bluford High School, on the streets. The problem of the story is Darcy's father left her and her family five years ago. Things start to get better in Darcy's life. All of a sudden, one day he shows up. Darcy and her family are really hurt because they haven't seen him in five years. Jamee's so hurt that she runs away, no where to be found. Darcy had been sitting on the bus bench for ten minutes when she noticed an old silver Toyota parked under a tree down the street. An overweight, middle aged man wearing a New York Yankees baseball cap sat at the wheel. Darcy could not make out his face through the dirty front windshield. He seemed to be looking in her direction, but she could not be sure. Darcy looked nervously. She wished the bus would hurry up and come. There was no one else on the street, and it was getting darker as the sun slid behind the horizon. Darcy was not even sure what time the bus was supposed to come. Usually buses ran every thirty minutes, but maybe this was a less popular route and they did not run that often. Glancing at the Toyota, Darcy was worried. What if that guy gets out of his car and comes walking over? What if he’s dangerous? What if he has a gun or knife? Suddenly the door of the sedan opened. The driver swung a leg out. He was getting out of the car! Darcy looked around the empty street desperately. Maybe she should just take off running. But what if he chased her? What if he had a gun and shot at her while she ran? She couldn’t out run a bullet! Darcy was about to sprint away when she saw the bus lumber into view. “Thank Goodness” Darcy sighed. Darcy, Jamee, and Mom, are reunited with their father/husband. Darcy begins a new relationship with Hakeem. Darcy also makes two new friends Tarah and Cooper. The family finds Jamee and she is taken to the hospital. She apologizes for running away and she is ok.

In conclusion i would give this book a 4 out of 5. I would give this book a 4 out of 5 because the lanuage was kinda confusing, But also I am not the only person who rated this book. Staurday review says: Their Eyes were wacthing god belongs in the same catergory with the works of William Faulkner, F. Scoot Filtzgard, And Ernest Hemingway that of enduring african liteature. Also Ralph Ellison said the book contained a a consistence simce of history.
A. I’ve learned that 9 out of every 10 kids want a book that is interesting and challenging book to read when they have to do a report or project on it. Do you want to be the dumb kid that does a picture book and get an F. if not, then I recommend that you read The Game of Sunken Places for the following reasons…… B. When Brian and Gregory get a letter from Gregory’s Uncle Max the trip is not what it seems. Uncle max does not know what century he lives in. The butler burns there clothes and give them clothes form the 1700’s. And the attic has this mysterious game called The Game of Sunken Places. The game is actually in real life and if they lose…… they die so Brian and Gregory are playing this game and along the way they meet woodland creatures and giants. If this summary does not make you want to read this book maybe this cut from the book will persuade you. C. If that summary does not make you want to read this book maybe this cut from the book will persuade you “Gregory nodded a prompt for them to creep forward. He stepped quietly across the threshold into the cavern. Brian followed. The light haired boy was as silent as a cat as he crossed the vast floor. His companion was as quiet as he could manage. The they saw Snarth. He was prone against a bolder. He was maybe 20ft tall, a huge warty ogre, eyeless his thick nose with 2 huge nostrils over a mouth two dirty yellow tusk. His massive limbs, draped with muscle and fat, were curled uncomfortably on his belly. He wore a skirt with furs. The two were very careful. They did not make a sound But still, the nostrils began to twitch. The golden hairs in them began delicately to wave. Then the massive head began to rock. And the beast sat up. Shaking its head and grumbling, “Mmm, mm, hm…” the giant crawled to his wearily feet. He sniffed at the air his hands out spread. The two boys froze with fear. Snarth sighed, and then grimaced. He rotated his shoulders a few times and turned both leg’s. Then with an insane yowl, he leaped across the chamber and tromped and stomped where the boys were; he stomped till he was sure there lives were gone. D. In the end Gregory and Brian end up winning the game and go home. Remember do you want to be the stupid kid reading a picture book? If not get The Game of Sunken Places today!

''One of the best books of all time''
-Logan Learman(actor from Percy Jackson series)
This year Percy doesn't get his way into trouble until he gets into a dodge ball death game against people who know the truth. Percy then heads to camp to find out that someone has poisoned Thalia's tree( dead daughter of Zeus). Percy , Annabeth , and Tyson Percy's new half brother go a all wild adventure to The Sea Of Monsters to save Thalia's tree so that the camp will survive. What will happen find out in Percy Jackson The Sea Of Monsters.
Pg.278-279
She wasn't a camper. I didn't recognize her from any of the cabins. And yet I had the strangest feeling I’d seen her before…..
‘’It’s true,” Grover said, panting from his run up hill.
‘’I can’t believe…”
. She was clearly a half blood, whether she was a camper or not. I could sense that just from one touch. I didn’t understand why everyone was acting so scared.
I took her by the shoulders and lifted her into sitting position, resting her head on my shoulder.
No one moved, not even Chiron. They were all too stunned.
Then the girl took a shaky breath. She coughed and opened her eyes.
Her irises were startingly blue-electric blue.
The girl stared at me in bewilderment, shivering and wild- eyed.”Who-“
‘’I’m Percy ,” I said. “ You’re safe now.”
“Strangest dream…”
‘’ It’s okay.”
‘’Dying.”
“No,” |I assumed her. You’re okay. What’s Your name?”
That’s when I knew. Even before she said it.
The girl’s blue eyes stared into mine, and I understood what the golden fleece quest had been about. The poisoning of the tree. Everything, Kronos had done it to bring another chess piece into play-another chance to control the prophecy.
Even Chiron, Annabeth, and Grover, who should’ve been celebrating this moment, were too shocked, thinking about what it might mean for the future.
“ I am Thalia ,” The girl said. ‘’ Daughter of Zeus.”
Now if you see very hideous creatures attacking you or your best friend is a satyr then your a half-blood of The mighty greek gods

Joes dad brings home some ugly lawn gnomes .His dad sets them up on the yard. The gnomes come alive and run through Moose’s dad’s yard and Joes dog gets blamed for it. Joe sets up a steak out and he catches the gnomes but his parents won’t believe him. Then Moose asked Joe what was he doing . They wait for the gnomes. The gnomes catch them. Joe tells his dad to come with him to catch the gnomes. Dad catches the gnomes and they were sent back.
Apart that might make someone want to read this book is, ‘Well, I think the ornaments are cool,’ I replied. Someone had to defend Dad.
‘Come on, guys’ Dad urged, starting down the driveway. ‘Let’s go see if a new shipment of ornaments has come in.’ Mindy and I trudged down the sidewalk after Dad. As we followed him we thought- no big deal. It’s almost dinner time. We’ll just glance over at the ornaments at the store. We had no idea that we were about to start the most horrifying adventure of our lives.
This is the way the story ended. Joe finally showed his dad that the lawn gnomes were actually alive. Chip and Hap argued about why they got caught. But if you could imagine it that would look like two little upside-down ice cream cones fighting.

The book you are holding in your hands right now-assuming that you are, in fact , holding this book, and that you have only two hands- is one of two in the world that will show you the difference between the word “nervous” and “anxious”. The other book of course, is the dictionary, and if I were you I would read that book instead.
Like this book, the dictionary shows you that the word “nervous” means “worried about something” –you might feel nervous, for instance, if you were served prune ice cream for dessert, because you would be worried that it would taste awful- whereas the word “anxious” means troubled by disturbing suspense, which you might feel if you were served a live alligator for dessert, because you would be troubled by the disturbing suspense about whether you would eat your dessert or it would eat you. But unlike this book, the dictionary also discusses words that are far more pleasant to contemplate. The word “bubble” is in the dictionary, for instance, as is the word “peacock”, the word “vacation”, and “the “ “author’s” “execution” “has” “been “canceled”, which make up a sentence that is always pleasant to hear. So if you were to read the dictionary, rather than this book, you could skip the parts about “nervous” and “anxious” and read about things that wouldn’t keep you all night long, weeping and tearing out your hair.
But this book is not the dictionary, and if you were to skip the parts about “nervous” and “anxious” in this book, you would be skipping the most pleasant sections in the entire story. Nowhere in this book will you find the words “bubble”, “peacock”, “vacation”, or, unfortunately for me, anything about an execution being canceled. Instead, I’m sorry to say you will find the words “grief’, “despair”, and “woeful” as well as the phrases “dark passage way,” “Count Olaf in disguise”, and “the Baudelaire orphans were trapped,” plus an assortment of miserable words and phrases that I cannot bring myself to write down. In short, reading a dictionary might make you feel nervous, because you would worry about finding it very boring, but reading this book will make you feel anxious, because you will be troubled by the disturbing suspense in which the Baudelaire orphans find themselves, and if I were you I would drop this book right out of your two or more hands and curl up in a dictionary instead, because all the miserable words I must describe these unfortunate events are about to reach you eyes.

Deadly fog rolled in off the Atlantic Ocean and she was in trouble. With nowhere to escape she is required to survive on her own terrified, cold and hungry in a haunted house. Will she survive? Will she lose her mind? Will the Fog kill her? As with most horror stories somebody always thinks that they can get away with doing something they’re not supposed to be doing and survive like a little dare devil. After days of staying inside the haunted house the fog clears up and Christina leaves safely. I think Christina has learned her lesson. Always obey the rules!

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a swamp like a werewolf? If so then you should read Goosebumps Werewolf of Fever swamp. The story is about a boy named Grady, who was dragged from his home in Florida by his parents to live near a swamp because they wanted to study animals to find out how well they will adapt to other environments. Grady was feeling like an experiment himself. Will Blake, a new friend of Grady's, starts to feed him scary stories about things that happens in the swamp, but somethings a little strange about Will. Grady adopts a dog for security and friendship.
There's something horrible happening in Fever Swamp. It started with strange howling at night. Everyone thinks Grady's dog is responsible. After all, he looks like a wolf. Most dogs don't howl at the moon. Or disappear at midnight. Or change into scary creatures when the moon is full. Or do they?

My favorite part
I hit the ground hard, landing on my elbows and knees. My heart leaped into my mouth. I tasted blood. "Get up! Get up!" Emily was screaming. "It - it's got me!" I cried in a tight, trembling voice. The fluttering in my chest had become a pounding. again, I tasted blood. I rasied my eyes to see Emily laughing Laughing? "It's just a tree root," she said, pointinng. I followed the direction of her finger But what was the blood I tasted? I felt my aching lip. I had bitten it when I fell.

The main characters in Lost and Found are Darcy, Jamee, Tarah, Cooper, Mom, and Dad. The setting takes place at Darcy's home, at Bluford High School, on the streets. The problem of the story is Darcy's father left her and her family five years ago. Things start to get better in Darcy's life. All of a sudden, one day he shows up. Darcy and her family are really hurt because they haven't seen him in five years. Jamee's so hurt that she runs away, no where to be found.
Darcy had been sitting on the bus bench for ten minutes when she noticed an old silver Toyota parked under a tree down the street. An overweight, middle aged man wearing a New York Yankees baseball cap sat at the wheel. Darcy could not make out his face through the dirty front windshield. He seemed to be looking in her direction, but she could not be sure. Darcy looked nervously. She wished the bus would hurry up and come. There was no one else on the street, and it was getting darker as the sun slid behind the horizon. Darcy was not even sure what time the bus was supposed to come. Usually buses ran every thirty minutes, but maybe this was a less popular route and they did not run that often. Glancing at the Toyota, Darcy was worried. What if that guy gets out of his car and comes walking over? What if he’s dangerous? What if he has a gun or knife? Suddenly the door of the sedan opened. The driver swung a leg out. He was getting out of the car! Darcy looked around the empty street desperately. Maybe she should just take off running. But what if he chased her? What if he had a gun and shot at her while she ran? She couldn’t out run a bullet! Darcy was about to sprint away when she saw the bus lumber into view. “Thank Goodness” Darcy sighed.
Darcy, Jamee, and Mom, are reunited with their father/husband. Darcy begins a new relationship with Hakeem. Darcy also makes two new friends Tarah and Cooper. The family finds Jamee and she is taken to the hospital. She apologizes for running away and she is ok.

“Gregory nodded a prompt for them to creep forward. He stepped quietly across the threshold into the cavern. Brian followed. The light haired boy was as silent as a cat as he crossed the vast floor. His companion was as quiet as he could manage. The they saw Snarth.
He was prone against a bolder. He was maybe 20ft tall, a huge warty ogre, eyeless his thick nose with 2 huge nostrils over a mouth two dirty yellow tusk. His massive limbs, draped with muscle and fat, were curled uncomfortably on his belly. He wore a skirt with furs.
The two were very careful. They did not make a sound
But still, the nostrils began to twitch. The golden hairs in them began delicately to wave. Then the massive head began to rock.
And the beast sat up.
Shaking its head and grumbling, “Mmm, mm, hm…” the giant crawled to his wearily feet. He sniffed at the air his hands out spread. The two boys froze with fear. Snarth sighed, and then grimaced. He rotated his shoulders a few times and turned both leg’s.
Then with an insane yowl, he leaped across the chamber and tromped and stomped where the boys were; he stomped till he was sure there lives were gone.
D. In the end Gregory and Brian end up winning the game and go home. Remember do you
want to be the stupid kid reading a picture book? If not get The Game of Sunken Places today!
