Summary

"Well, when you've got a family of vampires living next door, surf bum zombies living down the road, and the local shop is run by a witch, anyone would have trouble setting in." Luke "determined" his parents shouldn't have suffer because of what he is set out of to find a way to get out from Scream Street. His "mum" and dad can go bake to her their safe normal life.

The characters of this book are Luke Watson, Cleo Farr, Resus Negative, Dixon Samuel, Skipstone, Sir Otto Sneer, Alston and Bella Negative, Efa everwell, Doug, Dr Skully and Mr. and Mrs. Watson. I feel most caring towards the characters of Mr. and Mrs. Wastson. I say that because they were forced to go to scream Street even thought they are normal people and they are really scared of everything. The ending of the book was elected and I wouldn't have preferred a different ending because I really like the types of books that have an ending that makes you want to read the next book.

This book looks interesting because when I read the first two chapters, it seems that Tommy Donbavand (the writer of the book) use good descriptive language in the first two chapters that put a clear image in my mind and makes me feel like I'm in the book.

Q3 #3 Summary of the book "Out Side In"


Summary

There are times that 13 years old Lynn wishes that she could do just that, right now. Her feckless New Agley mom has just ended her relationship with solid, "dependable clive", lost her job and worst of all, totally forgotten to get Lynn’s passport, so Lynn can’t go to Choirfest in Portland. Marooned without her BFF’s. The Vancouver teen finds an unexpected friend in Blossom, a mysterious girl who saves her with the Heimlich at the stop. She leads Lynn down something of a “rabbit hole” to her home, a cozy, makeshift shelter in a park and where she lives with her dogs, her two brothers and a man called “Fossick”,  who is not her father legally or biologically but who is thoroughly devoted. 

This book is written in second person. I know this because it don't say "I" that much in the book, it only shows names. For example "Jean and Shakit tried on their outfits and Rob said they looked beautiful and scary". That is how I know this book is  written in second perspective.

Summary

Beast was allergic to pies. It worked, now he only had the problem on how to het the pies. He staged another play with his friend Chipmunk in front of Mr. Mollena, the cooking teacher. Chipmunk told her that  he was close to his birthday and his mother wouldn't be able to bake him a blueberry pit fir his birthday. Ms. Mollena was very sympathetic and decided to make her class cook 25 blueberry pies and let Chipmunk pick out the one he wanted; that night, after the pies were made, all of the Rotten School students "except the girls" snuck to of the dorms for the contest. To make the long story short, Beast won and there was a LOT of mess. Sherman handed the watch to Bernie and celebrated with his friends; just in the middle of the celebrating with his friends, in the middle of the celebrating, Ms. Mollena walked in. She was furious on how all the pies were missing because they were going to be used in a fundraiser, to avoid getting in trouble, Bernie donated the golden watch to Ms. Mollena, she thought, it was generous, but she made him do a fundraiser. To avoid getting in trouble. Bernie donated the golden watch to Ms. Mollena, she thought it was generous, but she made him clean up the cafeteria anyways, Bernie felt bad that he didn't get the watch, but he felt great that he beat Sherman in a contest.

The book is written in first person. I know this because in the book it says a lot of I. For example "I started to eat my breakfast", "I have to have it.", "I won the bet." So this book is in first person writing.

Q3 #2 Rotten School The Big Blueberry Barf-off !

Summary

 In my book, there is a kid name, Bridges is the main character. One day he was walking out in the Rotten School campus and saw Sherman Oaks, he is the enemy . He was showing off his new watch, which had 42 functions and was made out of gold. Bernie would do anything to get the watch. He tried to trick him many times to trade watches, but Sherman was to smart. What was even worse to Bernie was that April May June was hang in out this Sherman. After a while Bernie decide to try to het the watch through a contest, a pie eating contest. He was going to make Beast go for his team because he could eaton stack of pies in one minute. Bernie told Sherman about the idea , but he refused because he knew it was a trick. Bernie had another idea. He staged a little play in the cafeteria to make Sherman believe that Beast was allergic.

What I think about Bridges is that he is a sneaky boy. I say that because, he tries to take Sherman watch by playing tricks on him. There are many way to get a watch like Sherman but he is just doing it that hard way. Maybe if Bridges just ask his parents to get him a watch like that he’ll be happy. I know this because in the book it states “ they’re having dance lesson at the Student Center in Saturday.” That means he wants to get closer to the watch.
