A character named rosie from Rosie Revere, engineer is brave and persevered when her inventions din't work.

My favorite book is who was Michael Jackson Because it talks about one of my favorite pop singers and what he did. I always read books I've read already read before because I understand the books more and they always make me laugh just as hard. A character that inspires me is a girl named Maya who has a rare disorder but she never gives up and once lives her dream.

  13. It's kind of hard to say where I like to read because I read in a lot of different places and I like them all. The couch is nice.
    I like fantasy, realistic fiction, and astrophysics books. I like to read some magazines that I have subscriptions to like National Geographic and Boys Life. I also like old comic books like Kid Colt.
    My favorite author I would say is Erin Hunter. It's a group of people I think and there's also an actual Erin Hunter. I like Judy Blume and I also like Tui T Sutherland, she's a good author. My favorite series is The Warriors series about cats. They are in different cans that hunt and fight. It's really cool.
    Reading makes me feel good and I can picture what's going on in my head.
    The most challenging thing about reading? I don't know. Once you get me going on reading I don't really want to stop. Seeing how a story builds is so fun, I really like reading. But like I said, once I start reading it's hard for me to stop. Heh heh.
    My favorite book of all time is Firestar's Quest by the Erin Hunter group. It is about Firestar and his mate Sandstorm who go on a quest to right ancient wrongs and are in a long line of descendants of Sky Clan. I read alot of books again because pretty much every book I read I like. Firestar inspires me. He is a great and loyal leader and will help other clans and in a prophecy he was destined to help save his own clan. He has a deep connection to Star Clan.He gets prophecies when usually only medecine cats get prophecies. He's special.

    The genres I like to read are geographic and graphic novels. Graphic novels are funny and adventurous. The geographic because its about animals and their habitats.
    When I am not reading a book, I am reading magazines.
    My favorite authors are Jeff Kinney and Dav Pilkely. Jeff and Dav make the funny novels I like so much.
    My favorite series of books are Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Captain Underpants. I can understand the character in wimpy kid and feel like him sometimes.
    Reading at first makes me feel anxious but as I continue to read it makes me feel calmer and I enjoy the book.
    What I like about reading are cliff hangers, places in the book, some of the characters and a good ending.
    The most challenging thing about reading is not knowing how to say a word or knowing what it means.
    One of my favorite books is called Sharks Get up Close to The Oceans’ Most Feared Hunters because I love animals but in particular SHARKS!
    I have read books more than once before because they were good, or I had to.
    The main character in the book Captain Under pants inspires me to always believe in my abilities and my imagination.

    I like to read because it makes me feel happy and clears my mind. What I like most about reading is that I can learn new words.

I re-read books a lot especially Amulet and Captain Underpants. The Cat Kid from Dog Man inspires me because he always wants to do the right thing.

  18. I like to read somewhere quiet because I am more focused.
    My favorite genres are mysteries, fantasies ,sci- fi and comedies. Mysteries give you so much suspense and comedies are hilarious.
    I also, enjoy reading comic books and about nutritious facts. I get most of my nutritious facts from the back of food products.
    My favorite authors are Jerry Spinelli, JK Rowling and Dav Pilkey.
    The Percy Jackson series about Greek mythology is very interesting. The series takes parts from Greek mythology and makes it normal.
    Reading makes me feel excited. When reading you are able to take parts of the story and project it into your mind, as if you were in a movie theater.
    Pronouncing the words can sometimes be difficult because they may not all be familiar.
    Right now, I don’t have a favorite book. A lot of the books that I’m reading are very interesting.
    I like to read the Captain Underpants books more than once because they make me laugh.

  19. I like to read in my bed on the pillow because it’s very comfortable. I like to read fiction because it’s very fun to read, write, imagine. Comics are one of the things I read beside books.

  20. I like to read in my bed because it is very comfortable. I also have photos on my wall so when ever I read about something that happened in my life I just look up at my wall and remember it.

    I like to read fiction. The type of fiction that I like is fantasy because in fantasy any thing can happen. I like to read newspapers because they tell you what's happening in the world.

    I like J.K. Rowling, Road Dalh and Jerry Spinelli because all of their books make me feel like I'm in the book. My favorite series is Harry Potter because Harry meets so many characters and a lot of weird things happen to me. What I like most about reading is how strange things can happen at any moment.

    The most challenging thing about reading is understanding everything happening in the story. Sometimes the author uses a word you have never seen and you need to figure out what it means. Sometimes I re-read books because I feel like I missed something the first time.

    Hermione Granger is the character that inspires me most because she uses her smarts to help others get out of trouble. Someday I hope to be just like her.

  23. I like to read fiction books because when I read fiction it reminds me that I can write about anything and express my feelings. My favorite genres are mysteries, horror and action because each on has it's own element that make the book sound really good. I like to read comics because if it's about super heroes then it ads lots of details. My favorite authors are Gary Paulson and Jeff Kinney because how their writing is interesting. My favorite series is Diary Of A Wimpy Kid because that series is funny, interesting and creative. Reading makes me feel interested because interesting parts are what make the story. What i like about reading is that some books makes me feel I'm in the story. What I think is the most challenging is understanding some words and storyline. My favorite book is Hatchet because the story line is incredible. I have not read a book twice yet. In hatchet there was a kid named Brian and he inspires me because he never gave up and that tells me I shoudn't either.

  24. I enjoy reading in my bedroom on my beanbag and I enjoy reading even while I'm with my mom driving somewhere. It keeps me entertained in the car. I love reading all sorts of books. I like fiction and non fiction and I also like graphic novels.
    I like to read magazines about cars and comic books too sometimes. So far my favorite author is Max Brallier. But I have to check out some other authors too. My favorite series of books right now are Bones and Dog Man. They're scary and adventurous. I like that sort of stuff. Reading at first I thought was boring but my mom made me read everyday until eventually I liked reading. I liked feeling like I'm in the story sometimes and using my imagination. My mom says knowledge is power so I remind myself of that every time I get lazy and don't want to read and then just do it. When I'm done, I feel good and accomplished. I also learn new words when I read and that makes me feel good too. The only thing I find challenging about reading is reading a book I think is boring and not interesting. So far The Last Kids on Earth is my favorite book and I have plan on reading it again when I'm done. The main character in The Last Kids on Earth is my favorite. He reminds me of me, he's so brave and wild. He makes me feel like I shouldn't be afraid of anything.
