I loved this book. I hope you do too. On an island with only a little water and food to spare, the Swiss Family Robinson live for more than 5 years. There's a lot to read in this book. A big snake, a hawk, and more threats. One day they saw a hawk that they needed to catch. Soon the hawk caught a mouse and ate it. While it was eating, they blindfolded it and brought it back home so it could catch food for them. That's how they caught the hawk. Have fun turning the page with every new adventure.

I thought that Ramona and Beezus is a good book! You can learn a lot of stuff about sisters and what you should do and should not do with your sisters. When it comes to Ramona inviting her friends from school without asking or ruining Beezus's 2 birthday cakes Beezus is not sure she loves Ramona. When she talks to her mom and her Aunt Beatrice (her moms younger sister) it turns out that you don't always have to love your sister.
