Fellowship Of The Ring by J.R.R Tolkien.

About This book

This book is about Frodo (the ring bearer) who inherited a very powerful ring from his adopted father Bilbo Bagens. The ring has a mind of its own and every time you put it on it's power slowly becomes  more addicting. Eventually you cannot take the ring off because it takes over your mind! Souron (who made the ring to make himself very powerful) is trying to get the ring back no mater the cost. The fellowship which consists of Frodo Bagens, Samwise Gamgee, Merry Brandybuck, Gandalf the Grey, Arugorn, Legalas, Gimly, and Borumer must travel to Mordor to destroy the ring and keep Souron
from subduing and enslaving middle earth!

personnel opinion 

I liked this book because of the action scenes such as when they are in the mines of morea when they battled the ogres. I did not like this book because of allll the detail. Just to warn you the book refers to the Hobbit so you might want to read that first.

3. Recommended for 10+

I would rate this book 10 out of 10 Lava Bubbles!

The Action Bible by Daivid Cooks.

I got the Action Bible for my birthday and have already read it twice. It is a great book. It has many different Bible stories such as the story of Jesus, Goliath, and over 200 others. This book is just like a comic book. The art was done by a Marvel and DC Comic artist so I think boys would love it and learn from it. I also think girls would like it  (if she likes comic books).


Personal Opinion.

I liked this book because it's the Bible turned into a comic book. Who wouldn't like that!? What I didn't like was that it didn't explain things in detail like the Bible does. This book is good for ages 9 and up.

The Magnifcent 12: The Call by Michael Grant.

This is the first book in the Magnificent 12 series written by Michael Grant. It is about Mack MacAvoy a 12 year-old boy who is afraid of many things that most people are not afraid of, such as water and birds, but is not afraid of things some people are afraid of, such as bullies. This book alternates between the past and the future. After Grimluk (who is from the past) tells MacAvoy that he's one of the Magnificent 12, he helps MacAvoy find the others so together they can stop the Pale Queen from taking over the world.  

Personal opinion:

I liked the beginning of this book the best because of *spoiler alert* the bully pursuit that took place. The other action scenes were cool too! Even though I know it's a series, I thought the cliff hanger ending was lame. This is a good book for kids ages 10 to 13

Things moms would want to know:

1. Some violence and death.

2. No swearing.

3. Nothing inappropriate.

I would rate this book 7 out of 10 lava bubbles. 

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S Lewis

The book was about Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy. Stumbling into a wardrobe that lead them to the magical land of Narnia. In Narnia they ran into many magical creatures. Some good, some bad, and some evil. But the most evil creature of all was the white witch. She made it winter but never Christmas. The children needed to find Aslan the lion who was destined to defeat the evil witch.                                                             

Personal opinion:

I thought this was a great book for kids ages 8 to12. This action-packed book is full of adventure and suspense. I would give this a rating of 8 out of 10 lava bubbles.
