 * Nicol Walker

 * Raina Telgemeier
 * 213
 * My favorite part is when Raina graduated from Aptos's Middle School.
 * I dislike the part when Karin and Nicole made fun of Raina because there was tooth paste in her backpack. So she went to get a snack. Karin and Nicole grabbed her skirt. Galloped to the bathroom. She cried and cried . Emily and Kaylah tried to cheer her up. It was not working. So she yelled at Karin and Nicole and they were not friends any more.

Caleb G. A Strong Right Arm The Story Of Mamie "Peanut" Johnson. By Michelle Y.Green 105 pages. I like that Mamie kept fighting for her rights to play on the boys baseball team. Mamie did not want to play softball because she did not like the way the girls pitched. I did not like that the boy's baseball team did not let her play because she was a girl. But the boys did not know that she was a really good pitcher. I give it 4 stars. Baseball fans would love it.

Ryen G. Who Was Albert Einstein By Jess Brallier 102 pages My favorite part is when Albert and Elsa get marred and have a baby boy. I think the baby looks cute. I did not like the part when Albert died because it is so sad. It is so sad because his wife died and his sister died ,then his son moved out. So Albert died alone when he was writing his last letter. I give this book 5 stars

Lexi Melia surfur of the centry 48 pg My favorite part in the story is when Duke slept in and the judges said that he couldn't compete because he was too late. His competitor stood up for him and he got to race. I did not like how people treated Duke because of his dark skin. I give this book 2 out of 5 stars because it wasn't really my favorite book.
