If You're Reading This, It's Too Late by Pseudonymous Bosch





Pseudonymous Bosch has hit another home run with this book. Cass and Max-Ernest are back and this time they have a monster to stop. When they are about to take the other they get into trouble again. I liked how Pseudonymous made the chapters into a countdown. I liked how he left chapter 13 in this time. I hope his next book is just as good as thees two. I like how he uses oddball characters. He books are all ways good. It is really late so I can't really think much right now (just kidding). The way his books are like he is going to die if he tells you what happened is funny.
I give If You're Reading This, It's Too Late by Pseudonymous Bosch a five out of five. I recommend it for the ages 10 and up.

Hide those ears till next time and I will see you in the funny pages.

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney

Photobucket

I love this book for a couple of reasons one: this is funny stuff stuff. Two:this seams like real life and with a couple of twists makes it even funner. Three: the way he rights this is SO cool. It start with Greg Heffley staring a journal(the diary). Hoping to get famous off of this he starts to writ about his year. About how he loses his beast friend and how he got him back. How the stinky cheese all most runs his life, how he tries to run for school president, and all the stuff in between. Jeff Kinney writing is really good. I like the styles of comics I hop to get my hands on the next book. I give Diary Of A Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney a five out of 5.

I recommend it for the ages 8 and up.

It is one of the best book for any kid who likes fantasy, christian books. I give The Door Within by Wayne Thomas Batson a five out of five.

Manga Bible by Tyndale, NEXT

Photobucket



This is a new bible from Tyndale and NEXT. This Bible is for people who do not like to read the Bible but like to read manga or just comics. Manga is a style of comic book, and is pronounced mong-ga. It is the second most popular style of comic in the world, which would make this Bible very appealing.

It has three different comics. The first comic is about the story of Creation and tells about the father of Isaac. The next manga is about Joseph and talks about the Bible up until the prophet Isaiah appears. Finally, the last comic is all about Jesus.

Each one tells a little about the bible. Each comic whets their appetite and gives just enough to hopefully make them want to read it. This Bible reads well and it is written in the New Living Translation. Some people think this translation is much easier to read, and it’s a good translation for people who are just beginning to read the Bible.

I sure like it and I think it is great. It is for 8 to 80 and beyond. I give The Manga Bible by Tyndale NEXT a 5 out of 5

See you in the funny pages!

MANGA METAMORPHOSIS

Photobucket


This is the second book in the manga bible series. This what happened after MANGA MESSIAH, the first book in this series.

This is about the apostles and how Saul became Paul. It's really good at showing us his life and what he did after God changed his heart.

These books make the bible come alive. It makes me what to read my bible more to find out all the stuff they could not put in "Manga Metamorphosis".

This book is for ages 10 and up. I plan on reading the entire series, and on reading the Gospels to learn more.

I give MANGA METAMORPHOSIS a five out of five.

See you in the funny pages!

The Curse Of The Campfire Weenies by David Lubar

Photobucket



"The Curse of the Campfire Weenies" is the third in the installment of Weenie books. My mom bought it for me at our school's book fair. This is the first one I have read so this is new for me top.

I have heard a lot about these books. It was so good, I read this book in one day.

"The Curse of the Campfire Weenies" is full of creepy and funny tales. They include "From Mr. HooHaa!" to "Forgotten Monsters". From my point of view, this book is good.

It is amazing how David Lubar comes up with these ideas.

So bottom line if you like slightly warped, creepy, and funny tales this book is for you. I recommend "The Curse Of The Campfire Weenies by David Lubar for ages 10 and up.

I've already told my mom I'd like to have the other books in this series. We'll see if I get them!

I give it a four out of five.

See you in the funny pages!

Strange Journey Back by Paul McCusker

Photobucket


As the cover says this is four books in one, so this is four reviews in one.

So let us get started. If you do not like Adventures in Odyssey you might not like this one. Who doesn't like Adventures in Odyessy, though?

Try this book out; you might start to like it. Fans of Adventures in Odyssey will love this book and will know many of the characters.

The stories in "Strange Journey Back" are about Mark Prescott. Mark just moved to Odysseyk and he does not like it there. He starts to go on adventures and make new friends. Mark deals with a lot of the kind of stuff we deal along the way of our lives.

So final word is this a great story. It is for ages 8 and up.

I give it a 5 out of 5.

See you in you funny pages.

This book describes the opposite sex. For guys we need this book. They have surveys of what girls think. They ask all kinds of teen aged girls what they really think.

I like this book because it tells the truth about girls and how to get along with them better. I asked my mom about this stuff and I found out it was true.

This book will help guys understand the opposite sex as well as they ever can understand them. I recommend it for ages 13-18.

I give For Young Men Only: A Guy's Guide to the Alien Gender by Jeff Feldhahn and Eric Rice a five out of five.
