  8. Im reading a book I like called,"Abduction."
    At Least I think the book Abduction is a entertaining book because it's not persuade, it doesn't want you to buy anything or get anything. It's also not inform because the book doesn't give you facts about anything. I think the author tried to make the book entertaining because the book tells interesting stories. While I read, for example while I was reading a page it said," Puppy Kisses! Puppy kisses! The old dog,wriggling with happiness, slurped the boys face. This is obviously emotions and emotions are entertaining when they have nice big words.

  12. Little Woman
    This book is about 4 girls and their mother and nanny. Their father is in world war 2 as a chaplain. Suddenly when a lot of things go wrong the family starts to split more and more each day.

    A hard word is governess. Governess actually means A lady who works in a school with small children. He used this word other than nanny or guardian because it has more concept and difficulty.

  16. Roller Girl

    This book is about a girl that tries out for a roller derby camp and her best friend goes to dance camp.

    I think the authors purpose in this book is that maybe if you try something new you will like it and you will make new friends. Also that even though you go to different places in the summer you can still be friends with you best friend.

  17. The book I am reading is Regarding the fountain. My book is to entertain you because it tells a funny story. One thing that is happening is they are only eating beans the and kids at lunch just throw them out. They need a new sink, so the principal wrote a letter to the man who makes them and said "could we have a sink that saves the beans at the bottom. I thought that was funny.

  18. oday I read Big Nate FROM THE TOP! It is about a kid named Nate and he goes through his life. He has his friends Teddy and Francis, his arch enemy Gina, and his Dad. Also, Nate has a sister Ellen. Nate plays a lot of sports. The books are really funny. He broke the record for getting MOST DETENTIONS. Or as if people think that. This is entertaining me because it is a comic book that is funny. One funny part was when people egged Nate's house at halloween.

    This book is about a girl named Jessie who's mom is a nurse. Lots of people are getting sick lately. Jessie's mom is getting stressed because of it. Jessie's mom tells Jessie that they are living in a different century.

    The author is trying to entertain you with a thrilling story. I know this because it isn't a true story, so it is not inform. It isn't persuading you to do something, so it isn't persuade.
