The Horse and His Boy by C.S.Lewis
The Horse and His Boy was about a boy named Shasta, who is the son of
a fisherman. A man with a horse came along and asked to stay with them
and rest. The stranger offered to buy the boy from his father. Shasta
heard about this and was sad. He decided to run away. He found out that
the horse could talk because he was from Narnia, so they both left together
for adventures in Narnia and the North.
This book is part of a series called Narnia - the third book. I suggest
you read the ones before it before you read this one, so it will make
more sense.

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkein is a fantasy book. It is about
hobbit named Bilbo Baggins. He is going out to steal gold from a dragon.
It is an adventure book and is very suspenseful. I recommend it and the
whole series.

The book Redwall by Brian Jacques was an excellent book. Redwall's abbey is a peaceful place until Cluny the
one-eyed rat comes to conquer it. A brave mouse named Mattias courageously
sets out to find the lost sword of Martin the Warrior.
This is a great book for someone who likes fantasy/adventure stories.

The Wind Singer by William Nicholson,
is a fairly new book that not many people have heard about. It takes place
in a different world, and is about twins, Kestrel and Bowman. In the city
where they live, Aramanth, families are placed in different classes due
to what they like. The rules are strict. Kestral and her brother do not
agree with this system, and the set out to find the "voice" of
the Wind Singer, a structure in the middle of the city.
Spiced up with plot twists and interesting creations and characters, The
Wind Singer is a fast-moving suspenseful book. I recommend it to
fans of Lois Lowry, JK Rowling, and Philip Pullman.

The Wild Road by Gabriel King is
a book where animals can talk and it takes place in the wilderness. I usually
don't like these kinds of books, but this is one of the few I like. It is
about a cat named Tag and he was chosen to save the king and queen. It's
a complicated book considering a lot goes on at once. It is a good book.

The Two Princesses of Bamarre by Gail
Carson Levine
This book had a lot of thought put into it. It is an adventure book about
a girl who battles to show her courageous side when a loved one falls ill.
I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy, adventure, or a really
good book.

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster,
I think, is a great book. It is about a boy named Milo. He always has nothing
to do, so he is always bored. Then, one day, when he gets home from school,
he gets a present. It is a tollbooth. He goes through it and has an exciting
adventure in a far away land. I extremely recommend this to you if your
like fantasy stories.

Wrede starts in a boring kingdom called Linderwald, where Princess Cimorene
is forced to sit through "princess lessons", etiquette, and what
not. Princess Cimorene does not want to have lessons. She wants to fence

princess.

I think that the book The Mouse and the
Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary was a good book. It is about a mouse
that lives in the walls of a hotel. A little boy stays at the hotel and
has a little toy motorcycle. The little mouse Ralph sees the motorcycle
and loves it. My favorite part of the book is when Ralph rides the motorcycle
down the halls and down the elevator. He even gets chased by a dog. I would
definitely recommend it.
