One day in 1911, students and visitors sat in a park. They were relaxing and calmly studying. No one knew that the worst workplace disaster was about to happen. This book tells about the Triangle Fire. I liked it a lot! It had a lot of interesting facts that I would have never known if I hadn’t read this book. It was sad because of the tragedy. [I Luv Queen]
Flesh and Blood So Cheap
February 10, 2012 — falconmediaSurviving Extreme Sports
January 31, 2012 — falconmediaThe athletes are daredevils that survive many different kinds of stunts. One example, balancing on a powerline, is just one of the stunts. Keep in mind that these daredevils are professionals and have lots of experience. I liked this book because it has so many cool stunts. The book also has pictures that show what the athletes are doing. It is a pretty exciting book! [anonymous]
Surviving Stunts and Other Amazing Feats
January 13, 2012 — falconmediaDaredevils are performing crazy stunts all over the world. For example, a guy ate metal and not normal food.
A karate instructor broke 8 bricks in half. One of my favorite scenes was when a guy was free running. My favorite character is Juha-Mati Rasanen, who has superhuman strength. What surprised me was a guy that was water skiing with his feet and gripped the rope with his mouth. Danny Way jumped over the Great Wall of China while skateboarding. [oooo]
The Raven
January 12, 2012 — falconmediaA man is in his house sitting down in his chair trying to stay awake, but suddenly he hears a tapping at his chamber door. He was very scared because he didn’t know what it was. When he heard it again, he looked out the door and saw the raven. The man got even more scared because he was thinking about his lost Lenore. Every time he asked the bird “Why are you here?” it said, “Nevermore.” My favorite scene was when the narrator opened the door and the raven said “Nevermore.” [Abigail#7]

January 9, 2012 — falconmediaThis book is about feudal societies and what it would be like to live in a time when castles dotted the landscape. It describes knights, lords, kings and more! It was very informative about the Middle Ages, easy to understand and an easy read for all ages. [No12345]

Pyramids and Mummies
December 16, 2011 — falconmedia
The Egyptians believed they lived in the best land in the world. They believed the spirit could live forever if the body was mummified. My favorite section was about making a mummy. I also liked how they dressed the dead. The book was interesting because it had a lot of pictures. Someone who likes history would also like this book. Also, one of the most interesting parts of the book was about the animal mummies. [Mexican lover]
A Farm Through Time
December 16, 2011 — falconmediaThis is an informative book about a farm through the years. It shows pictures of the farm from the Middle Ages to the present day. It talks about the roles of different farm workers played, the clothes they wore, and how the surrounding countryside changed. Each page is illustrated with a different part of the farm.
This book was okay. It would have been better if each illustration was of the same part of the farm, instead of different parts. That way I could have seen the little differences over the years. Also, I didn’t like how it dragged out the Middle Ages, but skipped straight from 1900 to 2000 – I’m sure a lot of changes happened then. Overall this would be a good book for someone interested in history. [rkd]
World War II
December 15, 2011 — falconmediaIn this book one can learn everything about World War II. It tells about the Manhattan Project (a.k.a. the making of the atomic bomb) to the German Panzers. I thought it was a good review of World War II. It talked all about the basics of the war in detail. It also had really cool pictures of weapons and other things used in the war. You should definitely check out this book if you want to know more about WWII. [Changes are great]

December 6, 2011 — falconmediaAre you a risk-taker? Adventurer? A normal person stuck in a hard-to-handle situation? This book shows the steps you’ll need to survive – steps I would never have thought of doing for some situations. The most shocking ones are how to wrestle alligators, jump onto a moving train, and defuse a bomb. I recommend this book to travelers, adventurers, and people who are curious about how things work.
