Oscar’s comments from the Class of 2015 group.

I just finished the novel, World Cup by the author Matt Christopher who has won the Sports Books award, and Boys' Clubs of America Junior Book Award. I would recommend this book to boys or girls who enjoy Soccer and who are into the back round of its tournaments. I really enjoyed the novel because it talks a lot about the the sport and how it was established. I would compare this Book to Soccer Halfback because it relates to how the sport began and why Jabber had such a huge passion for Soccer. Is there any way you can relate the Ball game that the Maya played back then to Soccer? Any similarities? How so? What are the differences?

Good review, I might want to read this book someday. It is difficult to imagine her living in that kind of society.

Great review Abraham, I remember reading the book with our tutor Mr. Rob but then some parts weren't as interesting anymore but your review made me want to read it again.

Good job, I have the book but it doesn't seem interesting as much as before. One of the few things I enjoyed about this series is the humor mainly because it is told from the perspective of Greg, the main character.

Great review, I read the first novel and it didn't seem quite interesting. Your review made me want to read the series and give the novel another chance. Do Amy and Dan Cahill find the ones responsible for their parent's death?

I just finished reading the novel Soccer halfback by the author Matt Christopher who has won the annual Milner Award, and Boys' Clubs of America Junior Book award. I would recommend this book to boys or girls any age who are interested in soccer and enjoy the sport. I would compare this book to the novel, Beautiful Game by Jonathan Littman because even though their told by different perspectives the main characters have an obstacle or a challenge to overcome in order for them to play Soccer. I really enjoyed this novel because it is similar to the novel , Beautiful Game because In Soccer Halfback all Jaccob wants to do is play Soccer but his family is pressuring him to play football because his brother Pete plays it and it was a sport his father played before he died.A tough situation is made even more difficult when suspicion of stealing a wallet falls on Jabber's shoulders. Now he has to tell his uncle that he's decided to play soccer once and for all and convince his brother that he's not a thief.If you really wanted to play Soccer but you are peer pressured to play football what would you do? How will you approach the situation? On the other hand, your brother is accusing you of stealing his wallet and will tell uncle so that you aren't allowed to play Soccer anymore, what would you do ? What can you do?

I started reading this book too but it wasn't quite interesting. Your review might get me to read it again. Great review.

Good job, sounds like it is in a perspective of a girl but you made it sound interesting. Good review.

This book certainly grabbed my interested. I might want to read this next. Great job.

Good Review Jocelyn, book sounds interested especially in the perspective of a boy in middle school. Good job.

I just finished reading another great soccer book by Deborah Crisfield the author of Winning Soccer For Girls, and Coaching Youth Soccer. I enjoyed reading Everything Kids Soccer Book because it refreshes my mind and expands my knowledge of soccer. I would recommend this book to boys and girls any age who enjoy soccer and are interested in expanding their knowledge of soccer. I would compare this book to The Beautiful Game because even though The Beautiful game is a team determined to win in The Everything Kids Soccer Book it touches pages on what to do in certain occasions with the ball. This author has won the Winning Sports For Girls award.

I just finished this wonderful book by Jonathan Littman who has won several awards such as The Outstanding Reality- Competition, and CSI . This author has other novels such as I Hate People, Ten Faces Of Innovation, and The Watchman. I would recommend this book to boys and girls any age who are into soccer because this book is in a perspective of a girl in a team who has a coach at first that expects very little of them but Thunder gets a new coach fresh out of collage who is determined to win. I enjoyed reading this book not only because it is in a perspective of girl but it tells you how they were able to overcome their obstacles to win the state cup. Why would parents complain to the coach if Thunder practiced in hail, sleet, snow, rain, and sunshine knowing that coach Emiria could lead them to victory? Why would of group of girls not get along if they are all on the same team?

Good review. Nice questions.

Good review, Can you imagine yourself being in her position?

I just finished reading another interesting novel written by Terry Trueman. This author has won many awards such as the Black Eyed Susan Award Nominee, Florida Teen Reads Nominee, Iowa High School Book Award Nomine,and IRA Teacher's Choice YA Evergreen Young Adult Book Award Nominee. I really enjoyed this novel because it makes the reader think about the situation that he is going through. I would recommend this book to boys and girl any age who enjoy reading fiction. Can you imagine your self being in a situation were people can't understand you and you can not control your voluntary muscles? What would you do? How would you feel? Terry Trueman has also, written other novel such as Inside Out,and Cruise Control.

Great job, sounds like an awesome gift, sounds interesting. Good job.

This book sounds interesting and I can not imagine myself without having education.

I just finished the 6th book in the series! Harry Potter and Half-blood prince just got even better. I enjoyed this book mainly because this novel has more action involving Lord Voldemort. I would recommend this book to anybody who is interested in fantasy boys and girls any age. Some other interesting book by the amazing author J.K Rowling, The Casual Vacancy, and Quid-ditch Throughout The Ages. Who do you think is the half blood prince in the novel? Is Harry satisfied with this? If not, what can he do about it? Does this prince have any conflict with Harry Potter? This author has won some awards such as Award Hugo Award for Best Novel Hugo Award for Best Novel Kids’ Choice Award for Favorite Book Nestlé Smarties Book Prize.

I just finished reading the 6th book of the Harry Potter series. This book was just as interesting as any other book in the series. I would recommend this book to boys and girls any age who are interested in fantasy. The author of Harry Potter has also written other interesting novels such as The Silkworm, and The Casual Vancancy. I honestly enjoyed reading this book because it gives the reader more detail like when Lord Voldemort was able to get into Harry's Mind. Why do you think Lord Voldemort would want to get into Harry's mind? Or how? Is this to give Harry a vision so he can kill him? J.K Rowling has a couple of Awards for her Books and for her such as Hugo Award For The Best Novel and Kids Choice Award for Favorite Books.

This sounds like an interesting book to read. Good book review Danny.
