Go Figure!: A Totally Cool Book About Numbers

Think numbers are hunks o' junk? Think about it, and you'll realize that you just called something that can be interesting, cool, and even kinda fun crud.  Did you know that division by 0 is impossible because you end up with a conclusion that shows that 1 is equal to 2-which is impossible?  Or that you can use the number 1,089 to read people's minds?  Or that a doughnut is topologically equivalent to a mug?  Believe it or not, it's truer than true, and I'm no liar.  This book shows you Möbius strip magic, the math in the paintbrush, and how mind-bustingly huge, Huge, HUGE, a Googolplex is. 

All I can say is that it was just a blast with a Googolplex of reasons!  
This person put something to astonish anyone that had to do with math in the pages of this book to make them want to keep reading it.

It showed some of the same stuff as The Great Number Rumble, but way more other stuff (there's no 1,089 revealing the mind in the Great Number Rumble.)

Warriors #3: Forest of Secrets

Warriors has returned again! In this 3rd Book-of-a-one-of-a-kind-series, (☺) Fireheart mainly tries to prove his suspicions. My favorite part is the end, as it always has been. Then, Fireheart finds out that Tigerclaw, whom Fireheart has always been suspicious of, was trying to KILL BLUESTAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!☠
Fireheart had always been incredibly loyal to his clan, and was NOT willing to give an SOS. Why the HECK would he let bluestar die‽ He greatly wounded tigerclaw and defeated him. but, (*dun dun duh!*) Tigerclaw the outlaw was still alive. I predict that this Tigerclaw-outlaw thing will turn up in Book 4 (which I need to get from the library!)

I think being loyal means not doing a thing against your, in this case, clan. I strongly think about both my family and my class at school: this means I'm loyal to them. For example, when I walk Fiona to school, I am making sure she is safe. That's kind of being loyal, which is pretty much just taking care of her. But I guess that's a part of loyalty.

Secrets Of Droon #01: The Hidden Stairs And The Magic Carpet

Once upon a time, whenever it was, three kids named Eric, Neil and Julie went down in their basement to get a soccer ball to play a game of soccer--not very interesting yet, eh?

They, for no absolute reason, opened a little room's door--like about the size of a closet perhaps. And they discover a magical stairway that only appears when you shut the tiny room's door. This discovery starts out confusing when they accidentally shut the door on Julie and she say she's falling. And after that she comes back without the ball and they think she got hit on the head by the ball because she's acting kind of wacky. But soon they discover that this was no lie and she didn't get hit on the head by the soccer ball. It was a staircase into the magical world of Droon.

As they descent the magical staircase step by step they know, just know, that only magic and adventure awaits them.

The book was slightly easy for me, but I like having books that I can read quickly. Plus it gets a lot more stuff on this blog and I have to do a blog post one time each week! Anyway, easy and fast to read doesn't mean it wasn't interesting. My favorite part was when they got to the disappearing tower of Galen (hey, there's a boy in my class with that name! ) perhaps because one of the kids slammed into something that wasn't there, if you get what I mean, because that's funny, isn't it? Oh, I slammed into some air! :) It wasn't generally funny, it was interesting, but most books have to have a little bit of humor to be interesting (at least books that have a story in them).

This is the first book in a series and I definitely want to read the next and the next and the next and the next....Of course, I don't like this as much as my super-cool Warriors books, but they are interesting just the same.

Anyway, you've GOT to read it! Ooh, what's in this little room here? Wait a sec, don't shut the-BAM! AAAAAH! (*falls down magical staircase*)

The Mighty 12: Superheroes of Greek Myth

The Mighty 12 is a book about 12 gods/goddesses of Greek myth. They are so powerful that the author calls them superheros on the cover. Their names: Zues, Poseidon, Hermes, Hera, Hephaestus, Hades, Dionysus, Athena, Artemis, Ares, Apollo, and Aphrodite.

These "Super-Gods" are explained in Poetry. I think the reason the author wrote this book like that was because he both wanted a unique book and it just seems to fit in like an lubricated puzzle piece!

I think Zeus is probably my favorite god. The reason I like him most is either he is the leader of all these super people or that I just paid the most attention to him. I think the reason I paid the most attention to him is that I both thought that there was some important mythical dude that threw lightening bolts in some kind of religion or else I just noticed that above the poem it said "God of All Gods". It's because he's the leader then.

Warriors #2: Fire and Ice

Warriors is back again! First, let's recap: Fireheart, then known as Rusty, chooses to leave his twoleg (that's what the Clan cats call People) home and joins Thunderclan. Then he becomes known as Firepaw. In the end, he proved himself a Warrior cat by helping to strip Shadowclan of their leader, Brokenstar. Anyway, Fireheart (he earned that name proving himself) continues life as a Warrior. The most important part (to me) was the battle Thunderclan fought to protect Windclan from being driven from their territory--Again. Fireheart fought off many, many, many Riverclan and Shadowclan cats. Shadowclan gave up, and then Riverclan. Thunderclan had saved Windclan--Again!

The Warriors books are probably the most interesting books I've ever read! The author is definitely an animal lover. She either came up with the teriffic topic while daydreaming or saw a cat that looked like Fireheart. She really seems to know how to put some excitement into things, because she makes Fireheart be an astonishing warrior. And I'm glad about that since the excitement keeps me reading.
