  2. Hi! My name is Helen. I read The Mysterious Benidict Society. The book was about 4 very gifted kids who passed 'hard' tests. They join Mr. Benidict, Rhonda and Number Two on a heart-racing journey, sometimes staying out of trouble by the skin of there teeth. This book is very exiting with many twists and turns. I recommend this book for advanced readers. I couldn't stop reading this book!

  4. I read Harry Pottter And The Goblit Of Fire. This book was by J.K Rowling. i loved this book because it was full of adventure and each chapter felt like a diffrent adventure. All of the words made me know what was happening in the book.I liked this book because it was adventurous and full of suspence. I can not have one reson to not like the book. some of the main charecters are Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Cedric Diggory, Victore Krum, Fleur Delacour, Voldemort. i would recomend this book to third graders and up because i think a second grader would get scared in some parts of the book. I hope you read this book and enjoy it just like I did.

  6. My name is Kaylee and I read the book Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The thing that I liked about this book is that Harry finally gets a better chance to kill Voldemort[or visa-verse:and Voldemort has a better chance of killing Harry]. I also liked this book because Harry Ron and Hermione just nip their way out of being killed by Voldemort. I couldn't find anything I didn't like about this book. It was truly wonderful. Just like my teacher Mr. Wasil. I would recommend this book for people who are 8-100 years of age. You should read all of the other Harry Potter books.

  7. My name is Elyse Hensley and I read Harry Potter and the Chambers of secrets. I liked it because the ending was very exiting and the part when Harry is at the Dursleys. I did not like how mean Snape is to Griffindoor and when Ginny is being used by Tom Riddle or Voldemort. It is Ginny's First year at Hogwarts and the Chamber of secrets has been opened again. The last time it was opened was 50 years ago. Harry suspects that Draco Malfoy did it but the answer is for you to figure out. In the end Fakes Professor Dumbledore`s phoenix saves Harry[with its lifesaving tears] because the basilisk bit harry. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure, a lot of reading and magic. In the book the people are Professor Dumbledore, Maganigal, Snape the kids are Ginny, Ron, Fred, George, Hermione and Harry and their game keeper is Hagrid.

  8. My name is Stephanie Mossop and I read Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K Rowling. In this book, a contest called the Tri-Wizard tournament is taking place at Hogwarts, the school of witchcraft and wizardry. Two other schools, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons academy of magic come to Hogwarts for the tournament. For each school a single student is selected to compete in this series of magical events. There are three extremely dangerous tasks in this tournament. for this reason, the Ministry of Magic has a rule that no student under the age of Seventeen should be aloud to put forth their name in the Goblet of Fire. somehow, Harry's name got put into the Goblet and he must compete. I liked this book because it is action packed and full of suspense.
