Middle Grade Books

The Dragon's Tooth"-This book was written
by N.D Wilson and published by Random House Children Books 2011, a division of Random House, Inc. A strange man visits the main characters: Cyrus, Antigone and Denial Smith, living in the Archer Motel, their world turns upside down. Their Hotel burns down, and the kids find out about a secret society, and the important role they will play in keeping it alive. The book takes us on a visual journey through a world where vivid descriptions and adventure meet. Mr. Wilson's words paint a lucid picture of his world and characters while adding the right sprinkle of action. The book is a page-turner that middle grader will really get into. If your child loves great characters, fantastic worlds, mystery and action this book is for them.

"Infinity Ring, a Mutiny in Time. Book 1"- This book was written by James Dashner and published by Scholastic Inc. 2012. Imagine a world where history has been changed and the future of it depends on two geeky kids. Our main characters are 11 year olds Dak and Sera. They see their world, change after they perfect a time travel device. They learn about two top secret societies: SQ and The Hystorians that have been fighting for centuries over control of humanity. The two friends fight the evil society SQ by going back in time and fixing breaks in history with the help of The Hystorians. In this book, the children assist Columbus in surviving a Mutiny at sea. The story is full of humor, fantasy, history and puzzles which work together to create a living world. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

"Infinity Ring, Divide and Conquer, Book 2"- This book was written by Carrie Ryan and published by Scholastic Inc. 2012. This imaginative world is revisited by a new author that connects both books closely together. Our main characters have a mission to travel back in time and stop war between Vikings and French leaders. Their first attempt to change history fails, and they find themselves in the mist battle. A bit later, under different circumcises the children finally succeed in fixing the break. They bring peace to both sides. The Characters and story jump off the page. The story is a wonderful combination of everything children will like.


Thank you very much everyone and I hope you find these Middle Grade Books fun reads for your children. I will see you in the next update.

  Author spotlight 2021 Book Review   "Welcome to Washington Fina Mendoza" by Kitty Felde is a well written book with a fun story and lovable characters. The voice was the most realistic girl's voice I have read. The combination of  of mystery, and comedy made this book amazing. It not only a wonderful emotional story, but it also was a great view of both Washington DC life and the different role family plays in someone's political career. It did have a few minor hiccups with editing and page changes, but the book defiantly is a wonderful read for anybody and deserves a rare five star rating from me.               Kitty Felde   Kitty Felde’s debut novel Welcome to Washington Fina Mendoza (Chesapeake Press, 2020) is the story of the ten-year-old daughter of a congressman from California who solves mysteries on Capitol Hill. The book got a rave from Kirkus Reviews (“A lively mystery with a touch of spookiness, an intriguing setting, an appealing family dynamic, a

I had the great pleasure of meeting these two upcoming authors and asking them some questions. Mrs. Nan Whybark   My real name is Nanette, not Nancy. I like the informality of Nan though; as my grandpa always called me Nan Louisa (Grandpa pronounced it Loo-eye-za).   I had a golden childhood, and sadly I hear that is rare these days.   My grandparents were a huge presence in my life. From them I learned sewing, bread making, quilting, piano skills, how to ride a bike and play marbles, and the wonderful taste of homemade root beer on a hot summer day.   I learned to love the smell of roses, crisp, ironed linen sheets, fresh bread and warm apple pie. There’s so much I could tell about my grandparents! I had lots of pets too. Hamsters, mice, rats, rabbits, dogs, cats, fish, ducks, snakes, lizards—all wonderful in their own way. But I’ve always wanted a dragon. I have a room full of dragons now, but still none of them are truly alive. Maybe someday! .   I have lived in Washi

About me and a few book suggestions

     Hello folks and welcome to my new blog. let me tell everyone a little about me and then I will add a few wonderful  books for the teachers and parents out there.      I was born in Moscow Hospital in the mid seventies and left Russia to find religious freedom in the USA. When we applied to leave my parents lost their jobs right away. We had to wait three years until America opened her doors to us.     We came here in 1981 invited by a local temple to a city in New York called Mount Vernon. I learned the language in just under six months, because my sister and I got invited to sleep away camp within one month when we arrived in the States. I was six and she was eight. All I can say it was the most horrible sleep away experience I ever had. Everyone made fun of me and I was almost forced to eat a live frog, it tasted a little salty. I can look back at this and laugh now but imagine how a little boy would feel.      The years went by and I went through the American School system a
