Top 10 Book List Challenge

       

 1. WONDER by R. J. Palacio

   Wonder is one of the most inspiring books that I have read. This book really influenced me because August the main character had to go through so much in school and in general. He never gave up and thats one of the most important things to know in life. I thought that I had some trouble and that I was going through a lot but what I read form this story I now know that you should never think that your life is over and that you should never give up.

2. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time by Mark Haden

   This is one of my favorite books because, it shows even though people go through a lot and have to experience the most scariest stuff, he still acts like nothing has happened to him. Christophe Boone had to live his life thinking that his mother had died. Soon he finds out the most craziest and scariest things ever, and it comes from someone that he loves. To me that is a lot to go through especially to see how he deals with it.

3. The Grimm Conclusion by Adam Gidwitz

    The Grimm Conclusion is a really good book to read for fun. If your into tales, horror, action, and comedy then this is the book for you. I read this book in the summer and was laughing for most of the story.  Its really funny because the author puts in his own comments and of what he thinks of the tales. I especially like how your suspense gets up with the authors word choice. Its not that scary but it is very gruesome.

4. Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss

      Green Eggs and Ham "I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them SAM-I-AM." That is one of the many clever quotes that Dr. Seuss wrote. This book encouraged me to learn how to read faster. My dad bought me the entire series of the Dr. Seuss book. With Dr. Seuss I was able to learn how to read by age 6. I loved how Dr. Seuss used a bunch of riddles and tong twisting phrases.

5.Hatchet by Gary Paulsen
``
     If your into wilderness and survival books then you have to read this book. I really like this book because it shows a lot of detail. I read this book in 4th grade and to me it was really nice seeing how he lived in the wilderness by himself for a long time stranded with no where to go. He was practically in a remote island. Just to see how he dealt with it makes you think how you would survive in 1 year in a remote wilderness or island by yourself.

6. Brian's Winter by Gary Paulsen

    If you have read Hatchet and liked it and if you though it was over well its not. There is still 4 more books you have to read after hatchet. I loved hatchet and Brian's Winter because of all the action and the survival tips. Ive have never gone camping but this books makes me think if that is what it would be like if I went camping. After I read these two books Im making second choices about going camping. Although this book is full with action and survival it makes camping seem a lot more scary.

7. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by  Roald Dahl 

     I remember how much I used to love this book and how it got me so excited when the teacher in 3rd grade was going to read this book. I guess I thought this was such a funny book. Every day in school in 3rd grade our teacher at the end of the day would read it to us. I also remember how I would borrow the book form the library so I could have a copy of it while the teacher was reading it to us. I loved this book so much because it was about a chocolate factory. When I was a little kid I used to watch the movie and eat chocolate bars for like every minute of the movie, same when I was reading the book.

8. The very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

     I love The Very Hungry Caterpillar book so much because of the little caterpillar and, because the little caterpillar turned into a butterfly after it ate so many food. This book also helped me learn how to count while I was reading it. My dad would read this book to me every day at night . When he finished reading the book he would ask me to count all the way to 10. I was about 3 or 4. I think this book is great to help kids learn how to count and read.

9. Dying to meet you by Kate Klise, M. Sarah Klise

   This book Dying To Meet You is my favorite book in the series "43 Old Cemetery Road" because it is about a very cute old lady ghost and, she is very funny.  I love this book because it is the first one and, it explains the setting and it talks about the characters. This book is about a lady who wants to be an author but is not having success. Then a ghost who had the same problem of when she used to live starts helping out the old lady. I like how the ghost is so facetious at most points.
      
10. Over my dead body by Kate Klise, M. Sarah Klise

This is my second favorite book from the series "43 Old Cemetery Road". It is also the second book in the series. I love this book because it shows how the ghost and the lady never stopped working with each other. I love how the lady used to be so lonely but now she has a friend and, that is the ghost and, the little boy.  This shows that you are never too old to give up. It also shows that when you work together you could be more successful.
