Mr. Shaw 6.7.10 Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the wiki, Danielle. Glad you enjoyed it. Five house points for blue!  //Izzy 6.3.10 I agree with you too. It was fun writhing on other peoples page.//

__**Samantha 6-3-10 Danielle, I liked the wiki too! Everything that you wrote down in your comment I agree with! Well, Im glad you enjoyed it as much as I did!**__

Danielle 6/2/10 I think the wiki was a really good thing to add to our fifth grade. It let people talk about the book they are reading instead of just reading the book and never talking about. It was fun writing on others peoples page and having them write back to you. I also liked it when we had assignments that we didn't have to talk about the book we were reading because there were some really cool ones. The wiki was awesome.

//**Meredith 5-31-10 Danielle that would be a great book for summer. If your going to camp it would be even better. I go to camp with my cousin and other friends. I could see how things would be bad for Jemma my first year at camp I went with a friend that I didn't like being in a cabin with but I made other friends and i could see that Jemma will probably too.**// 

Sarah W Meg and Charles are not the same age. Meg is in 6th grade and Charles is in preschool. They are a lot alike because they are siblings. (Not that I am anything like my sisters or brother). But in the book, maybe the author made the book like that for a reason, maybe to relate to her own childhood. That was just a guess though. Charles and Meg are alike because they are both a little strange and out of the ordinary. If you haven't this book, I suggest that you do because even though you can read it in two weeks or less, it is still a great adventure story and it is very fun to read!!

Danielle 5/25 This week the book I would say is a good summer reader is the book Jemma Hartman Camper Extraordinaire. It is about a girl named Jemma that goes to camp with her best friend but her best friends cousin comes a long and ruins it for Jemma. This is a good summer reader for one reason because it talks about friends at camp trying to have a good summer and summer is about being with friends. Another reason why it is a good reader because it talks about a lot of great activities that you do at camp that you can't do in the winter and it gets you excited to do those activities. The last reason why it is a good summer reader is it has a lot of experiences you might have gone through at camp the year before and it brings back some wonderful memories.Thats all for today see you all tomorrow.

//Mr. Shaw 5.13.10 Very good response, Danielle. I appreciate the thought and effort that you put into it, and the way you explained your reasons with examples from the story. I also like the name of the character that you chose. :-) ** I am awarding the blue team five points for your response! **//  Emily L 5-12-10 I also read Lunch Money. Andrew Clements is one of my favorite authors so I have read tons of his books. Tell me how you like it!

Sarah W Thank you for suggesting that book to me but I already found a book. When you finish Lunch Money, then you might want to try reading it. It is called A Wrinkle in Time. I forgot who wrote it but it is a girl and her last name is L'engle or something like that. I also read lunch money but I read it a while ago so I don't remember what it is about but for now, from reading your comment, I have a pretty good idea of what the story is now.

Danielle 5/11/10 I am reading Lunch Money by Andrew Clements. So far it is about this boy named Greg who likes to make money.He would always save his money when he got it and he would try to do several different things to earn money. He is obsessed with money that is basically all he thinks about. There is another character her name is Maura Shaw. She has been copying Greg for a very long time I would like to be friends with her for a couple reasons. One because when her and Greg were younger he was selling lemonade and then she started selling lemonade for a lower price and he lost half of his costumers. Then he told her to stop copying him and she did. But she thought a little bit and decided to sell pot holders for a cheap price $2.00. She sold 6 to one of her costumers and then went to another house and raised the price so I would want to be her friend because she could help me get out of sticky situations. Also she is in a very high math group which shows she is smart and if she is smart she can come up of good ideas and you could always use a good idea if you are stuck. The last reason why I would want to be her friend is because she knows how to stand up for herself ,she would go right up to someone and show them up and stand up for me and I would do the same for her. That's who I would be friends with in this book. See you all tomorrow.

Hannah 5-7-10 That's the same eleven birthdays that i read. The description for that is below what you read. The author is wendy mass for that book.

Mr. Shaw 5/5/10 Nice response, Danielle! These are two books that do have many parallels, and you've found some good ones. Both of these authors have a gift for capturing the funny side of family life.

Danielle 5/5/10 I am still reading Anastasia On Her Own by Lois Lowry. The book I am going to connect it to that have read this year is Double Fudge because in both books there is an older sibling and a younger sibling and the younger one is annoying to the older one but they still love them. Also In Anastasia On Her Own, Sam has been asked to lie to his mother and not say anything about having the chicken pox. In Double Fudge, Fudge lies about is Fudge Bucks being real. I know that one was asked not to lie and the other just lied but they both lied whether they were told to or not. I love both of these books because they are funny and exciting. In both books I think the little brothers are so cute they always do funny things Sam drew lines connecting his chicken pox and Fudge made a code that every word was spelled backwards. That's all for today.

I remember the Sam-Anastasia books from 3rd grade. It was so funny. Anyway, I think I read the rest of the books. For Joey and Meredith: Yeah, Sam is.
 * Noah 5/2/10

Meredith 5-2-10 How old is Anastasia? When my mom goes out of town and my dad is still here my older sister doesn't do what my mom would normally do, so I think it's kinda funny. I know Joey said this but is Sam from all about Sam. **

Joey 5/2/10 Is Sam the Sam from All About Sam? I love those books. If it's the same family I would think it's good.

Emily 5/2/10 That sounds like a good book. I need a new book do you recommend it?

Danielle 5/1/10 I am reading Anastasia On Her Own By Lois Lowry. It is about a girl named Anastasia and she has a little brother named Sam. This is a fiction book so the conflict was that their mom is always forgetting to do things and is stressed out. How they resolve it is. The dad and Anastasia male a family schedule so everybody knows what they need to do. Other things that have happened in the story so far is the mom drew illistrations for a book and she has to go out of town for ten days and Anastasia is in charge of doing all the things the mom normally does while she is gone.

**Meredith 4-25-10 I think the first one because it doesn't have anything to do with a grave yard.**

Sarah L 4-25-10 I think that the lie is 2 because the baby prorobly can't walk and if she can't than how would she walk out of the house.

Emily 4/25/10 I think that the lie is 2, the baby was a ghost.

Danielle 4/21/10 The Graveyard Book 1.The baby walked out of the house on it's own. 2.The baby was a ghost. 3.There was a guy who came in wearing a black coat and carrying a knife.

mikenzie 4-18-10 so hows the book it sounds good i really want to read the book.

Danielle 4/14/10 I am still reading Jemma Hartman Camper Extraordinaire. It is an amazing book. Even though I haven't finished it I would give it 4 stars for many reasons. One is that it is written really well all the problems come together into one big problem that makes the book interesting. I like how it is about two girls who are best friends then another girl gets in the way of there friendship. I also like that there is another girl who is a little weird but knows the whole situation and she is supporting Jemma and being there for her.I like this book a lot because it talks about fun things I did at camp also. See you all tomorrow.

Bella 4.14.10 That book sounds really good I will look at it!

Danielle 1/11/10 I am reading a book called Jemma Hartman camper extraordinaire by Brenda Ferber. It is a book about this girl named Jemma and her best friend Tammy who moves away and they agree that they are going to go to overnight camp together during the summer. When they get to the place where they get on the bus Jemma finds out that Tammy's cousin Brooke is coming to camp with them and she is not happy about it. I have not finished the book yet but I really like it a lot and can't wait to find out more.

//Emily 4-10-10 I read Ramona Quimby age 8! I liked the book and I recommended it to my cousin but she didn't want to read it.//

Danielle 1/25/10 For this wiki comment I think that a book I would recommend to read over spring brake is Ramona Quimby age 8 and I would recommend it to my sister because she is also 8 years old. Also because she has read other books in the series and she liked them. Another reason why I would recommend this book to my sister is she is a really great reader and even though it is about 180 pages I think she would be able to finish it because she loves to read and loves this series. Also I have read the book and to me it sounds like a book that she would really enjoy a lot.

//Jeremy 2/25/10 I am also reading this book. Danielle, I agree with you I would not want to live in those times! Since I am white and a male I would probably have a slaves. I would not want one I would feel like I was a bad person. Do you agree?

Jack M 2-24-10// //this book sounds very compelling for new readers. And sence the british would not hurt a woman isnt that showing that they are not that evil at all.//

Danielle 3/15/10 I am reading War comes to Will Freeman by James Lincoln Collier and Christopher Collier. It is a wonderful book. Things that have surprised me about the Revolutionary War is that some African Americans were on the British side and not the Americans side. Also I didn't realize how much more powerful the British was and I can't believe we defeated them. What I have learned about the Revolutionary War is that the British soldiers would not hurt the women. Also that the British made all the laws without asking the colonists if it was a okay law. I would not want to live in those times because women and blacks were not treated equally. Even though I am white I wouldn't want to live there because I still would have to take orders from the men. Also I want my freedom and Independence and I would not get it back then. The last reason why I would not want to live in that time is that the things I have and the activities I do were not invented and I would be bored. They didn't have ipods let alone pens to write with they probably used ink and paper. They wouldn't have basketball and if they did the girls most likely would not be aloud to play. I like the book so far because it has a lot of suspense.

//Toby 3/11/10 I think that sounds like a good book But is it scary.

Izzy 3/7/10// //I didn't like th City of Ember because it wasn't intresting and I thought it was boring. I also I didn't like it because there was no action. I thought it was confusing because it went from one place to another. For example it went from the pipeworks to the city. I didn't find any interesting parts even thogh I did not like it. mikenzie 3-6-10 i really want to read that book it sounds so good.//

3/4/10 Danielle I am using a homework coupon this week.

//Izzy 3/3/10 week of Feb.21-28 (late) I would be upset if I overheard someone that I had my birthday with every year saying that he doesn't want to have their birthday with me anymore. How would you feel?//

2/25/10 Danielle I am still reading **11 birthdays by Wendy Mass.** In the chapters that I have been reading since the last time i wrote a comment Amanda and Leo have there seperate birthday parties which went horrible for Amanda the whole day was bad for. First she woke and there was something in her room but it was a balloon but she was still scared but she found out it was a ballon. Then when she went downstairs her dad was very very sick and her mom had to work so she had to take the bus to school. After that her friends didn't even notice her on the bus. Next she had to take a pop quiz an got 86% on it. Then she had cheerleading tryouts and didn't make the team but her best friend did. When it is finally time for her party she wishes she wasn't having a party because most people were going to Loe's party and she was having a really crummy day. Plus she had to were a itchy dress that she hated and shoes that were too small on her. The next day is Saturday so she thinks. First she was woken up by her alarm that she thought she turned off last night and the ballon was in her room in the same spot again. She thinks it is a joke and that her family was trying to trick into it being Friday but she quickly discovers its not a joke through the whole day she is reliving the same way she did the day before which was a horrible day. The next day it happens again except she pretends to be sick and doesn't got to school or have a party or anything. Since her last birthday when Leo said that mean stuff about she hasn't spoke to him at all she hasn't even looked at him. But the next day she goes to school and Leo passes her a note in class to meet her somewhere before lunch and she does. Then Leo says that he has been reliving the day too and it is also his birthday. They still don't know why this is happening but I think that it is happening because this is the first year they haven't had their party together and if you remember in my last comment I said that there was alady who said they would have there birthday party together every year and since they didn't they have to relive the day until they do have there party together. That is just what I predict. The setting takes place in the past but it doesn't say the year or anything but it is in a town which they don't say the name of so I donn't have much to say about the setting but I really like the book so far.

1/21/10 Danielle I am reading a book called **__11 birthdays by Wendy Mass.__** It is about a boy and a girl who were born on the same day and put next to each other in the nursery. This woman named Angelina saw them next to each other in the window and when both of their parents came to see them she told them that they would spend every single birthday together. The mothers didn't think they were but the told the woman that they would anyways. The boy was named Leo and the girl was named Amanda. One their 1st birthday Amanda's mom booked it at this place called The Magic castle birthday party palace. Then when they got the man said that there was another party booked also and that family walked right in when he said that and it was Leo that little boy's party. Year after year they had there party together but on there 10th birthday Amanda overheard Leo talking to some of his guy friends and his guy friends were saying why do you have your party with that girl every year and he said because my mom makes me and she doesn't have a lot of friends. When she heard that she ran out of the house. The next year the night before her birthday party she was thinking about how she would not be celebrating her birthday with him this year. This reminds of the time and this is still going on every single year of elementary school I have been in the same class with Andy Chaet kindergarden through 5th grade.

1/13/10 Danielle I am reading a book called **//__Someone Named Eva by Joan M. Wolf.__ It is about a girl named Milada and she lives in Czechoslovakia she lives with her mother,father,older brother,little sister,and her grandmother. Milada loves to look at the stars so on her birthday her dad gets her a used telescope. In the town for three years now the Nazi soldiers have been there. Milada and her family are not Jewish but one night the Nazi soldiers came to their home and said pack up so things and we'll meet you outside. the grandmother gave Milada a pin of hers to remember her by just in case she would never see them again. Then her, her mother, baby sister, and grandmother were taken somewhere away from her father and older brother. Next the women were taken to a school there all of there things were taken away including her telescope. Then they were taken to another school were they were there for three days then they took Milada to this room with other kids that also had blond hair and light colored eyes. Then some lady made them take off all of there cloths and several doctors checked them out then she was brought back to her mother. Here is a cause an effect since she had light colored eyes and blond hair that was the cause and the effect was she was chosen to be in this thing were she would turn into a German girl so she was taken away from her mother and sister and grandmother and they were all crying. But she still had the pin her grandmother gave her. She was taken to this camp where she had to learn German and become a German girl. They told her that her family had been in an allie air raid and they were killed but she knew they were all still alive she did not believe them one bit. The next day they renamed her Eva. She was at the center for two years before she was adopted by a German family. That is all I have read so far. Happy Valentines Day!!! //**

//Andy 2-7-10 Danielle sounds like you like ghost storys. Also what are some ways Molly realizes how hard Heather's life is. How did Heather almost die. Sounds like a good book over all.//

Danielle 2/7/10 I finished Wait Till Helen comes. In the last couple chapters I read Molly and Heather fall into a hole in the Haunted Harper House which was the cause of the effect that they found out some things about each other. Molly realized that Heather has had a pretty hard life and that she was a little hard on her. Heather realized that Molly and her mom and brother Michael were not trying to steel away her dad they were trying to help them both by all of them becoming a family and not being sad. Another cause and effect happened before they fell in the hole.The cause was Molly saved Heathers life and the effect was that Dave smiled and realized she wasn't trying to scare or hurt Heather. I loved this book. The last book i read was Time for Andrew and that was also a ghost story and I also loved it. From reading these two books I have discovered that I really like to read ghost stories because they are intense an it makes me want to keep reading. ** (+3 HP) **

//Sarah W I really do not like the book so I am going to stop reading it because we don't have to read partner books anymore. I think that Meredith is not going to read it anymore, considering that she thinks that the book is kinda boring. If you want, you can keep reading it though if you like it!! Who is your favorite character because you didn't answer me last time I asked. I like Molly for 2 reasons. 1. She seems like she could be our age and be our friend because she seems nice. 2. I have a friends named Molly and Molly in the book kinda reminds me of her. I hope that you like the book more then me! BYEE

mikenzie 2-7-10 That book really sounds scary but it sounds intrsing and good maybe i will read it. but intell than i am going to read your respones.

Meredith 1/31/10 Danielle who do you like the best in the book? I don't like the book very much it is kinda boring to me. do you think it is scary that Heather and Helen have the same initials H.E.H? I feel bad for Molly because her mom doesn't even take her side. Do you feel bad for Michael and Molly because they have to live with Heather? I know how they feel because I have a little sister too.//

//Sarah W So far, who is your favorite character?? I think Heather is funny because she is so bratty but I like Molly the best because she is the most like me. She is probably the most like you, also. By the way, Meredith, I know her name is Heather but in Danielle's comment she wrote Helen so it kind of through me off and I didn't understand it so I wrote Helen by accident. Do you feel bad that Molly and Michael have to live with Heather?? I do. I also feel bad that they live near a grave because graves scare me soooooo much!! Well, next time you read my comment, please answer my comments!! BYE!//

1/30/10 Danielle: I am reading __**Wait till Helen comes by Mary Downing Hahn**__ still. In the chapters i have been reading since my last wiki Heather has gotten Molly and Michael both in trouble some more. She also claims that Helen is her friend but she is the only one who can see her. When Molly was looking for Heather one day she saw her by the grave with the same initials as her and Molly heard her talking to someone but nobody else was there so Molly was a little freaked out but she got over it or did she. Heather saw her spying on her and had a real hissy fit. Then the next day Heather was over at Helen's house or that is what she said this made Molly freak out even more. Then she went to go check out the house but she went with Michael. Michael wanted to go inside because it was starting to rain but Molly was scared she went in anyway. She said it looked like the walls were going to fall down. One night Heather had a nightmare it was about a fire the that her mother was killed in. She started screaming and woke Molly up so Molly went over to her bed and tried to shake her but she was still screaming by that time Michael had come into their room with his mom and Dave. Dave woke her up and held her tight and blamed the bad dream on Molly and Michael saying were you talking to her about the fire and they didn't but he still blamed it on them. This book is a little bit different from Time for Andrew it is a different type of ghost story. But i still like it. But they are also similar because they are both ghost stories and they both give some suspense which i like when i read books.

Meredith 1/24/10 Sarah I read your question and I do fell bad for Molly and Michael because I would not want to move somewhere in the country in the summer. The little girls name is Heather not Helen. I think the other grave is Helen's so just to make it clear her name is Heather. I think the book is good and we are now getting to the good part were the ghost might come soon!

Sarah W Don't you feel bad that Michael and Molly are moving?? I also feel bad because Helen always gets away with everything and Michael and Molly don't. It scares me with the title Wait till Helen comes and the little girls name is Helen and I think that the girl in the picture that is a ghost is Helen. I am going to finish the last chapter now so bye and have fun reading the rest of the book. I can not wait until we have to read more and we have more clues to discuss!

1/23/10 I am reading **//W__ait till Helen comes by Mary Dawning Hahn__//**. It is about a girl named Molly and a boy named Michael who's mom gets remarried and the man has a daughter and her name is Helen and she is a really mean little girl. She gets away with everything and is mean to Molly and Michael. Now that she is there stepsister they have to start getting along but she just doesn't want to give them a chance. The moms name is Jean and Heathers dad who is now Molly's and Michael's stepdad is named Dave. In the story the family decides to move into the country into an old church. When they go there Molly and Heather go on a walk and they discover a graveyard in their backyard. So Heather not scared at all goes inside and starts dancing around and calling out " Molly is afraid Molly is afraid." Molly really was afraid so she ran back to the house. When Heather came back she was whining saying that Molly left her all alone even though she wasn't alone she still said it to get Molly in trouble. But Molly didn't get in trouble. After dinner the whole family went to the graveyard to look around Molly was scared but she clung to her mom very tightly. When they went back inside Heather was complaining of being tired and then she had a complete meltdown saying that she hates Molly and Jean her stepmom and Michael to so she was put to sleep and Molly's mom said try to be a little nicer to her. The next morning the kids go to the graveyard and this man is there he mows the lawn once a month his name is Mr. Simmons and he talked about some of the people in the graveyard and he put flowers on his moms,dads,and younger sisters graves. Then Heather found this grave away from the graveyard that said H.E.H may she live in peace and she was 7 years old when she died the same age as Heather is now. Also it had the same initials has Heather has Heather Elizabeth Hill. Thats were I am going to stop tonight.

1/14/10 Two nights ago I finished //__**Time For Andrew by Mary Downing Hahn.**__// Since the last time i wrote a comment Andrew and Drew switched places. So Drew went back in time as Andrew and Andrew went forward in time as Drew. They switched places because Andrew was dying of Diptheria so they switched places so Andrew could get better medical assistance so that he would live. When Drew got to Andrews time Andrew's sister Hannah thought that Drew was Andrew so she thought that Andrew wasn't sick anymore. Andrew is really great at marbles so Drew and Andrew make a deal if Drew can beat Andrew at marbles he gets to go back to his own time so it takes him weeks to beat Andrew and when he finally does he gets to go back to his time. When he gets back to his own time Hannah and Andrew visit but they are old men and women because it is 90 years in the future. That's how the book ends.

Sarah W Hi Danielle! This weekend we should read until chapter 14 in Time for Andrew. I really can't wait till I finish the book and discuss it with you and Meredith a little bit more each time we read. Good job writing your response thing and make sure to check out mine!

Brandon 1/7/10 I am also reading Time For Andrew I think the book is great I cant wait to see what happens.

Bella 1/7/10 I think i have read that book a long time ago but if not it sounds like a mystery, right? Wellit sounds good and i will be sure to take a look at it! BYE BYE!

I am reading a book called __//Time for Andrew by Mary Downing Hahn.//__It is about a 12 year old boy named Andrew and is going to go live with his aunt for the summer while his parents are in France. His aunt is not married lives with her dad in this old,scary,creepy,gross,icky house. It is were her whole family lived at one point in their lives. So it creeps Andrew out a lot but he tries not to show that he is scared and stuff. He tries not to show it because when he first got there he overheard his dad telling his aunt that he was a insecure, worried, scared of monsters little boy. He wanted to show his aunt that he was tough and stuff. The next day him and his aunt went into the attic and found some old pictures and one of the pictures was of a boy who looked just like Andrew but he was wearing different cloths. It was his aunts first cousin and his name was Andrew also which scared him a little bit but he still didn't show it. The aunt has a cat named Binky and at night when Andrew was scared in his bedroom he call Binky and he would comfort him so he wasn't as scared. That is all that I have read so far so you will find out more about it later. P.S I am reading this with Sarah W. and Meredith.

// Jeremy 1/6/09 I think that book sounds really... sad because he loses his whole entire family and he is being tortured by this little girl! I think that Jack will find his family and it will be happily ever after.

12/14/09 Meredith I think that would not be a good idea to give the book to Carly because she could do a lot with the information that gives you. But she would probably like it I have read it and it was good. This book would be a great book to give her for the holidays. // //

12/14/09 I have read a book called Double Fudge this year by Judy Blume. I liked this book a lot and if I had to pick a person to give it to it would probably have to be my sister Carly because she is just like Fudge and they would be really great friends because they are a lot a like. I think if they meet they would be perfect for each other they are both annoying to their older siblings. I think my sister would like this book because it is really funny and she likes funny books. I think that this would be a good book for her but it might give her some ideas of how to be evil so I will have to sleep with one eye open.

12/9/09 I have been reading Sheep By Valerie Hobbs. It is about a Border Collie named Jack, Well that's the first name he gets. He gets so many different names I stopped counting in the middle of the book because I couldn't remember all of his names. Jack lives on a farm with his brothers,sister,mom,and dad. Border Collies are known for herding sheep so his dad teaches him how to herd sheep. When he learns how to herd sheep pretty well a conflict happens the barn that is on the farm that he lives at burns down and the farmers don't have enough money to pay for him and his siblings so they take him and his siblings into a big truck. Along the way on there drive his brothers and sister kept disappearing. When ho woke up from sleeping they were gone. It didn't say were they went but I predict they were taken to different pet shops. Then he was put into a pet shop and he was in a cage and he cried and whimpered so much. Then one day he was let out of the cage and into a little girls arms and was taken away in a car to a huge house. The girls name was Penelope she liked to dress him up like a little baby and take him around in a buggy. She named him Blackie. I don't want to give away the whole story but what I will say is that this is not going to be his last home or second to last or third to last or even fourth to last home and it will also not be his last name. 11/29/09 Meredith Charlie and the Chocolate factory is one of my favorite book. I also saw the movie but the book is way different. If what happened in the book happened in real life Charlie would have been so happy because there was only I think five in the world and to be the last one that would make his day. The rest of his family thought he would not get the last ticket but he did!

Izzy 11.29.09 Charlie and the Choclate Factory sounds like a very yummy book. I am reading Harry Potter and Harry Potter is a fantasy also. I liked the movie Charlie and the Choclate Factory, but I never read the book. Maybe sometime I should read the book//.

11/29/09 I just finished Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. I think it is a fantasy. I think it is a fantasy because It feels like you could have just dreamed it up. Also because most of it is not realistic. A kid could not live if he or she fell into a big pond of chocolate then got put into a huge container with no air in it because he or she would need air to breath. After Charlie found the golden ticket I still felt sorry for him because he really had nothing else besides his family. He was always so hungry but his family couldn't pay for more food then they already had. If I were Charlie I would be hungry, cold in winter, hot in summer,sad,skinny, and lonely. If I were an adult and really rich I would give money to Charlie and his family.

//Mr. Shaw 11/21/09 One of my all-time favorites, Danielle! Roald Dahl had a gift for writing imaginative stories. I've heard them over and over but still enjoy Charlie, Danny Champion of the World, and others by RD.// //Have you seen both movie versions of this book? Many people prefer the first one with Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka.//

11/20/09 I have been reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. It is about a boy named Charlie Bucket and him and his family are very pore. He loves chocolate, and every year he gets a chocolate bar for his birthday. He was annoyed because he walks every day past this huge Chocolate factory. I think that this is a wonderful book. My favorite part so far was the part where Mr. Wonka the owner of the Factory decides to let people into his factory and Charlie is one of them because he found this golden ticket in a chocolate bar.

P.S I have already seen the movie but the book is still different in many ways.
