So far in the book Garrett has has to go to a camp hale in the army because his parents died because of  smallpox’s.  In the book Garrett had to take a shower in sted of a ice cold bath and he is with his uncle Skeeter. When he was taking a shower he started to cry because he was not with his parents who lived in Texas. So far he has fallen off the t-lift at least five times and also heart himself.He also has to deal with stal bread and coffee grounds in his coffee. He also had to learn to sky from the start. 

I realy like this book a lot. If you were to read this book you would like it if you like ww2.  This is also a good book because of all the action in the book.If you were in to ww2 you would really like this book. This is also a good book to learn who fighting in the war. It also has some family members in it. It is a very good book I wanted to read this book another time I would.

In the book Darth Paper Strikes Back  by Tom Angleberger. Two kids start out in seven th grade they get in a lot of trouble for having Darth Paper and Origami Yoda. Dwight and Tommy go to McQuarrie Middle School  and are in danger of going to  CREF. They also writing a case file so when Dwight gets shipped off to CREF. Principal Rabbski every does not like her at all. Also in the book all the kids get in trouble a lot by there teachers. In the book there is a lot of gossip. This school is very crazy with origami and star wars. Tommy goes to a school board meting. if he does not go his fiend to CREF. Each person has there own thing they like about school and teachers.

This is one of the best books I’ve read this year. This book has at least 20 chapters.  If you like books that are about origami you will like origami Yoda you like this one. I relly loved this book because when you finish the book it shows you how to make YODA and DARTH PAPER . If I were to put this book anywhere in the library I would put it with the graph novel shelvs.

Amy, Dan, and Nellie are on a quest to find 39 clues about their family history. In the first book they got two clues. There grandmother gave them two choices either $1,000,000 dollars or one clue.When they got out Philadelphia Mr.McIntyre sent them a black light to use to find hidden massages on papers Ben Franklin wrote. They flew from Boston to Philadelphia to Paris. Dan was starving at first when they got there After a while they got something to eat at one of the cafes. Dan sold all of his collectable  cards and comic books. Amy  does not like wearing Fancie clothes. The starling triplets are snotty in the book. Mr.Mcintyre  is the lawyer and helping out on their quest. Their grandmothre’s house got burnt down after they got the first clue. The first clue said “Richard S______.”  The charters you should watch out  for are the  Holts which are very active and very pushy, Alistair which makes him sound nice but he is on both the good side and on the bad.

I really like this book because there was a lot of mystery. The characters go through places that they go through are the catacombs to find the clue leading to the second clue.   

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes books about famous places around the world.
