"The Woods Are Always Watching" by Stephanie Perkins

The Woods Are Always Watching by Stephanie Perkins is about two teen girls going on their first camping trip.  They are best friends but will be separated when they go to different colleges in the fall.  What should be a fun time turns into a nightmare!  This book is good stuff!  I liked both girls and the story moved along.  (Gerard's review, 5 stars)

"Mr. Klutz Is Nuts!" My Weird School 2 series by Dan Gutman

Mr. Klutz Is Nuts! is the second book in My Weird School series by Dan Gutman.  In this book is all about the principal doing funny things to motivate the students.  The reader learns about incentives.  I liked that the students became concerned about their principal and were willing to learn without his incentives.  I enjoyed this one but it didn't make me laugh out loud like some of the others in this series did.  (Karen's review, 3 stars)

"Little Eyes" by Smanta Schweblin is a Strange One!

1.    

In Little Eyes by Samanta Schweblin people buy a Kentuki to keep them company.  It’s like a robot pet, but not all of them follow the wishes of their owners.  I thought this was pretty good.  It went to different people so I never knew what was going to happen next.  (Gerard's review, 4 stars)

My Weird School I Can Read! Series (Level 2—Reading With Help) by Dan Gutman

All the books in this series have large colorful pictures that little kids would enjoy with very little reading.  They are very short but are great for young readers. 

 Goes to the Museum

AJ and Andrea get to go on a field trip to the museum.  Although AJ is the one who usually gets into trouble, on this trip Andrea is the one who causes trouble.  It’s a cute story.

 Class Pet Mess!

The class votes on what pet to get for their class and snake wins.  This is pretty funny and also gives some interesting information about hognose snakes.

 Talent Show Mix-Up

The class is having a talent show and AJ doesn’t know what to do.  His talents really aren’t things he can do in a classroom.  He signs up last hoping to think of something.  It’s his teacher who recognizes his talent.

 Teamwork Trouble

Ryan is forming a curling team.  AJ says he wants to be on it, but Ryan already has enough.  When one of his players gets hurt, AJ comes in to replace him, but can AJ and Andrea play together without fighting?

"Dr. Brad Has Gone Mad!" by Dan Gutman (My Weird School Daze #7)

Dr. Brad Has Gone Mad! by Dan Gutman is about a counselor who does some testing on AJ to see if he is a genius and should be transferred to a different school for the gifted and talented.  Of course, AJ does not want to change schools.  He faked being hypnotized and later tried hypnotizing Andrea.  Things went really crazy from there.  

This book was okay, but did not enjoy it as much as the others by this author.  It didn't seem as believable so wasn't as funny.  (Karen's review, 2 stars)
