Book Bites Book Reviews

Call Of The Wild by Jack London
Review by Paige
A dog named Buck who is now a sled dog and is called to the wild. My favorite character is Buck because he is the main character and is intelligent. I liked this book because it was very adventurous.

Maximum Ride, The Graphic Novel by James Patterson
Review by B-liz
Angel gets kidnapped and they try to save her. My favorite character is Fang because in my imagination he is hot! I loved this book because it is the best book every, but I hated the graphic novel because they got Fang's hair all wrong.

War Of The Worlds by H.G. Wells
Review by Tori
The Martians come to London planning to eliminate the human race. I do not have a favorite character because the book is more about the story than the characters. I liked this book because it shows how the human race is so infinitely small in the vast scheme of the world.
Old Yeller by Fred Gipson
Review by Paige
A dog, who's name is Old Yeller, saves a family more than once. At first Travis tries to find ways to get rid of Old Yeller, but when Old Yeller saves their lives he changes his mind. My favorite character is Old Yeller because he is a hero and an amazing dog who is trustworthy. I liked this book because ti was detailed and well written and is an amazing book. 

Vesper by Jeff Sampson, and Havoc by Jeff Sampson
Review by Katelyn
Emily is an anti-social person and one night she took on a different personality. She was cool and popular at night, but during the day she was back to normal. Emily tries to figure out what is wrong. My favorite character is Spencer because he is smart and funny and his nighttime personality is really focused. He isn't like Emily and Dalton when they act crazy. I loved this book because it has lots of suspenseful parts in it. 

Alex Van Helsing: Vampire Rising by Jason Henderson
Review by Katelyn
Alex was sent to a boarding school in Europe. He and his friends are nobodies. Then Alex sees his teacher and finds out he is a vampire slayer and so is the teacher. My favorite character is Minni because she is really cool. She is a really good fighter till she is taken away by the Icemaker. I liked this book because it is a good story and is funny.
