Miles to Go by Miley Cyrus

Review by Gianna Nitti

This book is about pop star Miley Cyrus' life from 6th grade on. It takes place mostly in her home at in the rehearsal studio where she works on her music. I liked this book because it was an autobiography and Miley wrote it herself. It is better than when other people write who are not sure about things. This was my kind of book and the only thing that would have made it better was if kept going to maybe 1,000 pages. I definitely give this book a 10 out of 10.

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Piggle Wiggle by Betty MacDonald

Review by Megan Cooper

Happy Birthday, Mrs Piggle Wiggle is a book about seven kids who have problems with their parents. The parents call Mrs. Piggle Wiggle for help and she uses potions to solve the problems. The book takes place in a town and the main characters are Mrs. Piggle Wiggle, Wag the dog, Lightfoot the cat and Lester the pig. My favorite part was Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's birthday party because on every page something really interesting happens. The only thing I didn't like about the book were all the problems. I thought there were too many problems happening in the story. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give it a 9.

The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes, Have Wheels Will Travel by Anne Mazer

Review by Gianna Nitti

This book is about a girl named Abby Hayes who wants new rollerblades instead of using her sister's old ones. It takes place mostly in the park at at Abby's house. I really liked everything about this story especially how Abby earns the money to buy the new rollerblades. I thought this book was amazing and give it a 10 out of 10.

Little Genie Castle Magic by Miranda Jones

Review written by Gianna Nitti

Little Genie Castle Magic is a book about a girl named Ali who has her own personal genie. It takes place at Ali's school, house and a place called Popplehoff Castle. This was a funny book because the genie did not know magic very well. The only part I did not like was when the genie went missing, I would have left that part out of the book.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I gave this book a 9.
