Read through all the Fudge books -- some out loud and some independently
Rest of the time, usually Peanuts and/or non-fiction out loud such as DK books on World War I. WW II, Money, etc

Shiloh Season
Shiloh was a very touching and heartwarming book about a boy named Marty in West Virginia.
I would recommend this book to people who like dogs and also to hunters.
This book also focused on drinking too much and how it affects people's minds and behaviors.
By the end of the book, Shiloh begins to like Judd Travers.

Loser by Jerry Spinelli
This book was about a kid that got nothing right.
This book was sort of funny because Zinkoff the main character did not even mind when people laughed, kicked or teased him. At the end of the story, he turns out to be a tough kid he stayed out in the snow for seven hours looking for a little girl named Claudia who was missing.

Flush
It was sort of disgusting and sort of funny and sort of sad and sort of depressing.
It was about this guy named Dusty who was dumping crap into Florida's clean water and so this boy named Noah had to break the case because his Dad sunk the Coral Queen because there as illegal dumping.
I liked this book a lot!

Sounder
This book was a little sad because the dog is hsot and loses an ear and eye and a leg. It tells about the hard life of a boy who could not read. His Dad went to jail because he stole some meat so his family could eat. The Dad was put on a chain gang and after he was released from jail he came home but then a few days later he died. The boy was the oldest in his family and had to take care of his younger siblings.

The Borrowers Avenged
This is the last Borrowers -- it was creepy how it ended because they said "Are we safe? Are we?" from people. The borrowers were little people. I loved their adventures. They were all my favorite especially Arietty and Greenpea and Spiller. I liked Spiller because he was adventurous.

Arabel and Mortimer
The illustrator for this book was the same as for Matilda. It was a funny book. It was about a funny bird, Mortimer, who did almost everything wrong. He ate some pills for seasickness that caused drowsiness -- this made him sleepwalk. He ripped out the parts and demolished a sewing machine. He also destroyed a LawnSabre (lawnmower). He gets in trouble most of the time. Arabel is a small girl who is his owner. She loves him anyway.
