yes,because they had to go through alot back then and Anne Franks diary tells us alot about what they did go through and how they got through it. So it just shows us that ower life time is really not that bad and we should be thankful for what we got.

My favorite book this year was Twilight. I loved the amazing love story and the way it made you turn the page. The best part about the book is the amazing description of things. Also, the suspense of the book made it the best.

My favorite author is Jody Picoult. Every single one of her stories make you want to keep reading and reading. They are a higher reading level, but the things that happen in them are usually very realistic, so they make you think. My favorite book by Jodi is the tenth circle. It's very suspensful and a good read.

My favorite book this year is called Double Identity, by Margaret Peterson Haddix. Haddix is also my favorite author. All of the books of hers I have read are great page turners. You won't want to put the book down! The books she writes are complex but when you figure out what is really going on everything is put together and makes the story so much better. The books of hers can seem real at times and at others they are great mysteries and you don't know what will happen next. In Double Identity there are many events that make you think and wonder what will happen next. I think most people, boys and girls, young and old, would enjoy these great books by Haddix.

My favorite book this year was "Pretty Pictures." This book showed that life is not all happiness, rainbows, and unicorns. The world is also dark and cruel. What surprised me the most is that the author killed the main character, and that's how the book ended. Like I said, it's not all rainbows

One book that I think was noteworthy was the book called "The Longest Ride" it's by Nicholas Sparks. I just read this book recently and I really liked it. One of my favorite things about it was that it made you actually feel how the characters were feeling. I really understood everything that the book was trying to say. This book had two stories in it, and then they connected at the end. It made me want to keep on reading. It had some conflicts within the character that made it even more suspenseful. Those are the reasons that this book is noteworthy.
