My favorite book is Froggy Goes to School. I like it because Froggy goes to school and has fun.
~Colby, 4
My favorite book is my Winnie the Pooh book. It's my favorite because it has four stories about Winnie the Pooh. My favorite is the honey-tree one. (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree) I like this one because at the end Winnie the Pooh gets shot into the honey tree.
~Dakota, 7
My favorite book is Daniel Boone by Janet Riehecky. He was a great pioneer. I like to hear about stuff that happened back in those days. The book said he wanted to live in Kentucky.
~Jontel, 6
My favorite book is "The Little Engine That Could" I love this book because it lets me know that no matter what is happening to me I can do anything if I keep trying my best, and in the end I can say "I knew I could,I knew I could"!!!
~Abby, 5
I like the book David and Goliath by Leonard Everett Fisher. I like this book because I like when David fought and won against Goliath.
~Elijah, 6
My favorite book is the American Girl: Kit Series. I love this series because it shows how people lived during the Great Depression and how they overcame their struggles. Not only did I learn about history, but the way that people solved their everyday problems.

This is the hardest question anyone could ever ask a bookworm like me. I could more easily make a list of my top ten favorites than just one favorite. But since it is so hard to chose, I will just pick a book I have recently read. LAD: A DOG by Albert Terhune is a really good book. Its about this collie who lives in New Jersey. He is so trustworthy and obedient to his Master and Mistress that it is inspiring! Lad goes through many dangerous and exciting adventures. He even saves his Master and Mistress's life! This story is based on Mr. Terhune's own beloved collie, Lad. :)
~Jessica, 13
My favorite book is Henry Huggins series by Beverly Cleary. I like it because Ribsy reminds me of my dog Annie.
~Caleb, 10
My favorite book, so far, is "Little Pilgrim's Progress" because I enjoyed reading about how to deal with troubles we encounter in our lives. The book is easy to read and it is written in a way that made me stop and think about my own life and personal experiences.
~ Preston, 14
My favorite book is Elsie's True Love, from the A Life of Faith series. It's my favorite book because there's love, confusion, and excitement, blended together nicely. It's also a great book because it's Christian.
~Rebecca, 11
My favorite book is Prince Caspian of the Chronicles of Narnia. I like the mysterious adventures that seem more real than any other book I have read.
~Jacob, 9
My favorite book is Encyclopedia Brown: Detective Boy. I like it because it has exciting mysteries. You get to become the detective while trying to solve the mystery. It makes reading fun and exciting. I like learning about new things and this series gives me topics to talk to my parents about. Some of the topics, I would not have thought up on my own.
~Sarah, 9 ½
