War and Watermelon / Rich Wallace

There in only one word I know that describes this book, strange.  (this is my opinion, you have your own.)  This book is okay, but if you want to read this book, you could.  Though, this book isn't that good, I still read it all the way to the end. (you have to if you want to see everything.)  -Katherine

Touch Blue / Cynthia Lord

This is an amazing book.  Tess's school is about to close down because there aren't enought students there, so, they ask some families to take in foster kids, and Tess's family agrees!  The new kid's name is Aaron, and Edon hates him and makes fun of him.  A lot of things happen and at the end Aaron and Tess are like brother and sister.  What I like about this book is how it shows a lucky sentence, and at the end of the book. (I laughed like crazy)  -Katherine
