The Greedy Triangle

The Greedy Triangle by M.Burns  reviewed by D.F. and A.C.


One day the triangle was feeling down, he felt he wanted more in his life so he decided to shift shapes. He turned in to many different shapes. He went to the shape shifter many times until he had so many angles and sides that he couldn’t keep his balance. He was sad because he couldn’t tell his friends about some new adventures . We liked this book because it teaches shapes and we love to read just like the quadrangle.

Reviewed by K.G., C.J.H., Z.B.


Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is about a fourth grader named Peter. It’s about how his brother Fudge keeps getting him in trouble.  Peter won a turtle at Jimmy Fargo’s birthday party while every one else got a goldfish. Peter brought him home and his mom freaked out because she did not like turtles. When Peter brought his turtle into his room Fudge came and Peter said “Don’t touch Fudge.” Peter named his turtle Dribble. Peter loved his turtle like a friend. But Fudge thought he was a toy. Read more to see how much trouble Fudge gets Peter into. We liked this because it’s very funny and kids our age like funny books.

Dork Diaries

Dork Diaries: Tales of a not-so fabulous life by Rachel Renee Russell
Reviewed P.M.



Nikki is a girl who no one understands. Mackenzie is the girl that doesn’t like Nikki too
much. The two girl joined an art show, read this book to see who won a $500 prize.
I like this book because it is very funny. I think people would enjoy this book. It is almost like real life because it has real stores like Walmart & PetSmart in it.
