Kids Books - Adventure Books

I recently read the book Leviathan and I loved it. The book was recommended to me by my teacher and I am really glad she did. The story is a two sided story about a prince who had to run away from home and a girl disguised as a boy in order to be a soldier. They both lost their parents and have no where to turn but end up together in the midst of battle. One of my most favorite parts was when one of the characters told the main character he really could inherit the throne and could have his life back and reading how the character really feels like actually going back out and finding a meaning in life again. A connection I had with the book was when I found out one of the soldiers was a girl but had to dress up like a guy, it reminded me of the movie Mulan. I recommend the book to people who like daring adventure with plot twists and unexpected trouble. Leviathan will keep you on your toes right up until the end.

This book is about two kids receive a bag of money from nowhere, and they only have a 2 weeks to spend them all before the money loses its value. I chose this book because I did not know what will happen to two boys if they got a million dollars to spend, and it is very interesting for me to read. The main character in this book were Damian and Anthony. Damian was Anthony's little brother, and Damian believed in saints a lot. Damian was talking about saints all the time. Anthony was Damian’s big brother, and he liked fashion things, such as toys and shoes. The major problem in the book was people were asking them to give out money, and there was a group of robbers coming for the money. My favorite character in this book was Anthony. Anthony was very mature, and he knew how to spend and handle the money. Unlike Anthony, Damian wanted to help poor people, but he used the wrong way. My favorite part of the story was when Damian and Anthony went to school and everyone were asking them to give them money in exchange of their toys. My least favorite part of the story was when Damian started talking about saints, and it just took forever for him to finish that without someone else in the book started a new topic. I recommended this book for people that likes to see how will people reacts in different situations, and guessing what will happen next in the story.

This series is perfect for horse lovers. I would recommend it to people who are truly dedicated to their horse, and work.

I looove this book, but it's not as good as the shows. I love the series so much that I want to be a power ranger samurai myself.

"...'Synergy, my dear girl. It occurs with paint and canvas but more so with people. Therein lies the wonder of friendship. Two small insignificant beings can suddenly master the world--or at least their own troubles--when they care enough for each other.'" Friendship is the key to overcome any darkness. Meet Claudia, a shy student, who's friends are paint and canvas. One day in a field trip, Claudia sees a boy with the "most awesome blue eyes" in an odd painting and starts introducing herself... however once Claudia had her opportunity to talk to another student, it looked like Claudia was hallucinating... making her seem crazy to her classmates... but in reality... Claudia saw what she saw... After actually meeting Pim (the boy with the nice blue eyes), Granny Custos (an original Artisti) invites Pim and Claudia... Pim tells Granny Custos his gruesome adventure about how Nee Gezicht cursed Pim after "spilling paint all over her dress," so in order to save Pim to be free from Nee Gezicht, Claudia must set out in an adventure... behind the canvas of each painting to steal the staff and to defeat the "Sightless one." Her weakness is that she is afraid of dying... and with the help of Granny's advice and "magic," they can help save the painted world and of course Pim... to actually eat food and be fill, and to actually sleep... After many betrayals that Claudia thought Pim said...they finally mend their friendship and with the help of the one and only Cash... they are set to defeat this horrible witch... Although many past judgements were stated about Pim, it shows that you should believe about what will happen and what is going on as the present and not focus on the past... After many traveling and actually meeting the witch... things become to pace a bit faster and weaves into this intricate web... I love how the author chose different and real paintings to describe each scenery... Also one bonus... there were footnotes on the bottom of the page which provided a lot of background history and information which gives a bit more "oomph" to the book... not only you get a taste of fantasy... you also get a taste of the history of each painting... Like who knew about the Rembrandt Van Rijn... and Rembrandt is a significant character in this book... I feel like I learned so much in one sitting... while going on this adventure with Claudia and Pim... What the author wrote is an amazing tale... once your inside a painting... everything that is in the painting becomes real... it's so amazing.. I can relate because I love art... and acrylic painting has been a specialty... and once you start painting... you're just hypnotized by the different shades and texture that you can do to paint in a canvas... I feel like it's basically about looking behind every story.. .because although things might look right... you still need to look behind the real picture... This heartwarming story will seriously bring a smile to your face... and you might even shed a few tears... (tears of joy/sadness)... I certainly did not see the ending about Pim and Claudia's future happening after the war... but overall this quick read is amazing... Aspiring artists, readers, and anybody who wants inspiration to not give up... this book is perfect for you... Enjoy!! :) Also... you might not see this coming... but nail polish remover is really helpful!!! :D

The book I read was Shadow on the Mountain by Margi Preus. The book is about the adventures of a true wartime spy. The main character is a boy named Espen who lived in Norway at the time of Nazi Germany. He hated the Nazis and decided to join the resistance. The resistance is a group of people who worked against Germany. He delivers illegal newspapers, radios, ration stamps, and many other illegal things. Things get even more dangerous throughout the book as the Nazis get stricter. I loved this book, it is a action packed and fun read. I could not put the book down because of the suspense and intense moments. It is written very well and is perfect for my age readers. There was very good detail and dialogue all throughout the book. Sadly this book is realistic fiction. All of this book could happen during this time in history. I'm sure there is many people who had to go through this during that time. Almost anyone can read this book, kid or adult it doesn't matter. But I would recommend this book to people who love intense and action packed books because that is what this book is all about. An internal conflict happens when Espen had to leave his family and friends for Sweden. He had to do this because he had so much information about the Nazis he couldn't stay in the area anymore. He was very sad when he had to leave them. An external conflict happened all throughout the book. It was always cold and snowy in Norway which made transportation very hard. Which that was what Espen always did. He delivered illegal newspapers and radio, etc. Overall this book was amazing and I'm very excited for my next Rebecca Caudill book!

I think this book is awesome, great, strange and funny and the author puts a lot of questions in your head. It is interesting. You world want to read this book and is not like a book that you like. It blows your mind.
