====5/27/10- Summers coming and some books //I// recommend are... definitely The Clique Series (for girls), Any Andrew Clements book, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid! Now I will give you tiny summaries of the books I recommend. My favorite story from The Clique is "Dial L for Loser" it is about a girl named Claire Lyons, who becomes a major super star in her movie Dial L for Loser. Her friends Massie and Alicia, //also// auditioned for the main lead too. Though Alicia didn't get the role because she was too pretty, and Massie didn't get the role because she was too determined. 3 words to describe this book would be: Jealousy, Pride and drama-tastic. My favorite story of Andrew Clements is "The School Story" It is about a writer, Natalie Nelson, who wishes to get her book published, but her mother works at the publishing place "Shiply Junior Books". Natalie doesn't want any special treatment so she goes by a pen name, Cassandra Day. With the help of her friend and her teacher, Natalie/Cassandra found a way. 3 words to describe this book would be: Caring, passionate and trustworthy. And finally my favorite book from the Diary of a Wimpy kid series is the 4th book. It is about Greg trying to have a fun summer, but with his mother nagging him to go outside and being banned by the country club, it is not easy. He makes fake adds for mowing lawns and it does //not// work out. Also he tries to save money for a dog he can choose of his choice... or so he thinks. 3 words to describe this book would be: advantage, self-centered and puppie-love!

====5/12/20- My author is Lisi Harrison... You probably would have guessed that. Lisi's real name is Elyse, but she she likes to be called Lisi. Anyway Lisi was born in Toronto, Canada. She went to Hebrew school till 9th grade. Lisi said her parents tried their hardest to make her unspoiled and she was never really knew the latest styles, so I think she is most like Claire. She went to McGill University, which she calls the Harvard of Canada. Before she was a writer, she worked at MTV for 12 years! She wrote her first Clique book while working in MTV, just in case her being an author didn't work out. And finally in June 2004 she quit MTV and became a full time writer! And now in Laguna beach she spends 8 hours a day writing fantastic books, such as; The Clique, Alpha and Monster High! I love Lisi Harrison.==== Stat. Aqua Aardvark Alliteration! <Highlight!

3/3/10- I am reading __The Clique Summer Collection:Claire__ by __Lisi Harrison__ __.__ Claire is in Orlando (a.k.a Orland-ew according to Massie) Orlando is Claire's hometown before she moved in with Massie. So anyway, Claire meets up with all her old friends, Sarah, Sari, and Mandy but Mandy calls her self Amandy because she thinks is sounds teenager. But when Claire gets there, she starts to notice that she is EW (extra Westchester). Claire changed a lot since she moved. Honestly I think she //needed// to change, it was for her own good. Cause: So when Claire got to Orland-ew, effect: she noticed she was way more judgmental sort of like Massie. And when the Miss Kiss pageant comes up and she's a judge, she thought she was on a lucky strike untill... Massie comes to Orland-ew! She acts like a baby to the full fat welcome cake! Though when Massie hears about Kuh-Laire being a judge, cause: She become a contestant in the Miss Kiss Pageant and effect: Claire must choose between her old friends who like her for who she is OR her new friends who like her for how she's changed... Maya is 99.9% out!

2/26/10- I finished my book __The Clique Summer Collection:Massie__ by __Lisi Harrison__ It is about Massie (obviously). At first she was in a nice horse camp, but not just any horse came, she went to THE horse camp off all time (says her). But then she got kicked out for cheating. I do think that is unfair, it would be acceptable for her to be kicked out of the competition. But out of the camp! Totally wrong! So when she gets home and her parents have heard about her little scandal, she had to... I can't even say it! MASSIE BLOCK HAD TO GET A SUMMER JOB! Now thats unfair! Isn't it enough she has to get kicked out of the camp! But of course Massie finds her way out! Bye Bye!

2/16/10 entry 4- Hi Kenzie and Tali. The Trolls is so good! I love reading a chapter every night! Too bad were almost done with the book. I think Aunt Sally favors PeeWee (Frank) over Melissa and Amanda. What do you think? I favor Melissa because when ever Amanda or PeeWee doesn't know a word that Aunt Sally says in one of her stories, Melissa always knows the meaning of the word. I think it was funny when Amanda didn't know a word and then Melissa told her it and then said "Now shut up!" and Aunt Sally said "Such language!" I also think it is scary how Maud shot 80 cougars(A squirrel and John!). I am exited to learn more about the TROLLS! Because thats what the next chapter is called! Maya out!!!

2/11/10 entry 3- Hey Tali and Kenzie. In our book The Trolls I am so happy Aunt Sally finally told the three kids about the disgusting, ugly, stupid trolls. THEY HAVE NO MOUTHS BUT YET THEY TALK! Yucky! I do not get how the germans gave Mrs. Gunderson to the trolls and the dog just disappeared creepy right? I think its funny that //now// the kids want beans, //after// Aunt Sally had so much fun with her beans. I didn't know it was possible to have FUN with something healthy! I'll write more later bye! Maya out!!!

2/10/10 entry 2-** Hi Kenzie and Tali. I like** The Trolls **. But I don't like the name. (Tali and Kenzie know why...) I don't think Melissa and Amanda are treating PeeWee (Franks, as Aunt Sally calls him) nicely. I think they treat him like a baby. He is only six, right? I am at the same point as you Kenzie. When Aunt Sally tells PeeWee, Melissa and Amanda the story about the germans who MURDERED their dog. Freaky Right! I'm not exactly sure why Aunt Sally made PeeWee a treehouse. What do you think. I think with might be because PeeWee is the only boy and he needs his privacy, I guess... I am exited to find out what comes next. I'm scared to know what the trolls //are. // Thats all for now. Maya out!!!

2/3/10 entry 1- Hey Tali and Kenzie! I finished Half Magic! My favorite character is Jane because in one chapter she wish's to be in a different family (she wish's it twice!) and I can relate to that because sometimes I wish I lived in a new family. I agree with you Kenzie, the author does describe everything well. They make every kid different which makes it interesting. We should pick a new book. So exited! I'll write something later! Goodbye!


 * 1/28/10**- Now I am reading __**Sealed With A Diss**__ in **__The Clique__** series by **__Lisi Harrison__ this is the 8th book in the series. It is about the main characters ** (Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan & Kristen) get invited to an 8th grade party with the alpha of 8th grade, Skye Hamilton. In the previous book, Skye gives a key to the main characters. (A key to the secret room "It's Not Easy Being Mean). Massie has to get Chris Abeley to go to the party with Skye or else Skye will confiscate the key from Massie and the Pretty Committee (The main characters) But there is a slight problem, Chris Abeley likes //Massie...// So you can imagine how tough it must be to get him to like //Skye.// My favorite part so far is when Massie is talking to Skye and she says. "Skye, are you a Diesel turtleneck poncho?" Skye said no and then Massie said. "Then why are you trying to pull one over me?" My favorite character is Massie because around her friends she acts all confident and fearless, but inside Massie is sincere and cautious. That it for now, wait for my next entry and I'll nock your socks off! :)! Bye!


 * 1/21/10**-I'm reading a book called **__Dial L For Loser__** in **__The Clique__** series by **__Lisi Harrison__** this is the 6th book in the series so if you read my other entries you will notice that I've read a lot from the last entry, from the 2nd to the 6th! Anyway I'm getting pretty deep into the book and so far, the main characters (Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan & Kristen) went to a popular talk show with VIP passes because the talk show host is Dylan's mom, Merri-Lee Marvil. The show is called "The Daily Grind", and by the name of the show, I think you could guess what it's about. So far my favorite part is when Masssie says to Claire, "Kuh-Laire, do I look like a deck of cards?" Claire says, "No." And then Massie said "Then why are you trying to shuffle me?" Massie says a lot of stuff like that. But that's just Massie. That's all for now! BYE BYE :)!

Julia 1/17/10- I loved that book!!!!!!!!! I read it again and again!


 * 1/13/10**-I am reading a book called **__Best Friends For Never__** in **__The Clique__** series by **__Lisi Harrison__** if you read The Clique series, then you would notice that I am going out of order. On accident I read the 3rd book first, then the 1st, now the 2nd. Nick and Leah are two people that remind me of two characters in my book. Nick reminds me of the character Cam, he is not a main character but I know enough about him to compare him to someone. Cam is sporty, funny and a really cool //guy//-friend, and so is Nick... Leah reminds me of a character named Kristen. (if you look at my last entry you'll see her characteristics.) Kristen is sporty, smart and has a nice sense of humor. So does Leah. Tune in later for my next entry!

//__Here are the clues for the book I'm reading.__// 2. The main characters are girls. 3. They go to a school with all girls! 4. 1 of the girls are "//poor//". 5. They are all in 7th grade.**
 * 1. There are 5 main characters.

Leah 12/27/09- I'm only on the first one, but I can't wait to go on! Keep up the good work!!! :)

12/10/09 Jacob- This book sounds good. It is really cool that all of her siblings have big talents! Your doing a great job!


 * 12/17/09**-Currently I'm reading **__Revenge Of The Wannabes__ in __The Clique__ series ** by **__Lisi Harrison.__** The main characters are, Massie, Claire, Alicia, Dylan and Kristen. Massie, Alicia, Dylan and Kristen are best friends. Well they //were// until... read the book to find out! Massie's characteristics are snobby, self centered, bossy and powerful. I think she's like a queen. Claire's characteristics are shy, timid, observant and thoughtful. She's more like the queens slave because Claire always does what Massie says. Alicia's characteristics smart, stylish, healthy and sneaky. She's my favorite. Dylan's characteristics are always eating, caring, judge mental and friendly. She's cool too. Last but not least, Kristen's characteristics are, amazingly smart, caring, secretive and sort of funny because she has a hilarious laugh. Kristen is secretly poor but the only person that knows is Claire...for now.


 * 12/10/09**-Right now I am reading **__Other WIse Know as Sheila the Great__** by **__Judy Blume.__** It is about a girl named Sheila and she is going into 5th grade. She hates dogs! I can NOT connect to that because I LOVE dogs! Anyways Sheila lives in an apartment and for the summer she gets to live in the Eagrens house. She met a girl named Mouse but her real name is Merle. Sheila goes to a art camp for dancing, singing, sculpturing etc. Thats all I know for now. But I'll type more later. I recommend this book to EVERYONE! Because its an easy read and entertaining!


 * 11/5/09**- I'm reading **__The Amazing Days Of Abby Hayes__** by **__Anne Mazer__** It is about a fifth grade girl named, Abby Hayes. All of her siblings have big talents, her younger brother Alex is a computer wizard, her older sister Eva is amazing at every sport but soccer, her other older sister Isabel is a star student. All Abby was, was a good writer with tangly red hair and dark blue eyes. So Abby tries to become a super soccer player. She joins the team, and after a few game, she did pretty good. I think Abby will become very good in soccer. I recommend this book to a good writer, someone who likes soccer or someone who just likes a good book.


 * 11/28/09**-I am reading **__Lizzie At Last__** by **__Claudia Mills.__** So far, Lizzie whom is the character, is a nerd, and she knew that it was true. So the day before school started, Lizzie's aunt Elsbeth took her to a local Gap and, Lizzie had a totally new wardrobe! Then when school started, Lizzie made friends! I think this book is about accepting yourself. I like the way Lizzie's best friend "Alison" likes Lizzie no matter what she wears. And I think thats a true friend. I recommend this book to someone who likes to be their self or wants to be their self.


 * 11/19/09-**I am almost done with **__Lunch Money__** by **__Andrew Clements.__** In the beginning the main character "Greg", created a comic book collection, called Chunky Comics. Chunky Comics are little comics, that Greg made over summer. But then his neighbor Maura, Copies his idea, and they have a big fight including blood! Believe it or not, now Greg and Maura are working together on Chunky Comics. I'm pretty sure that Maura likes Greg and Greg likes Maura, but I'm not sure because they always fight. I like Maura better then Greg, because Greg is obsessed with money. I recommend this book to someone who likes drama, because boy does this book have drama!

Sam-12/9/09-I like Drama thanks for letting me know I'll try and find it.
