  2. dear ms. dunn,
    One book that i have enjoyed very much is The Secret Life Of Bees, if you have not already read it ( which may be unlikely because it is so popular to readers) it would be a nice book to curl up and read over the summer, it is a thrilling adventure with comedy and drama, as a simple 14 year old girl seeks to find all thruth about her mother. unfortunately, both of the copies of it are checked out in the arundel liabrary, but i'm sure you coule find another one somewhere.
    sincerely,
    book lover

  11. Thanks for all of the suggestions. I finished The Mysterious Benedict Society and really enjoyed it. I also finished Scat by Carl Hiaason (he also wrote Hoot and Flush). If you enjoy adventures that usually include and few animals and a kid doing something they really shouldn't...you will like Hiaason's books!

  16. If you have an ipod touch or iphone (3GS works too) you can get "classics" from the app store. It gives you a lot of books to read. You can see the list of books on the description of the app on the app store. It costs .99

  19. Thanks so much for all of the suggestions!
    Jaylen - I am a big fan of the Percy Jackson series. I'm glad to you you enjoy it too.

    Xavier - I read the Underneath and particularly enjoyed the story line about the cat and dog. I had a hard time keeping up with the story line about the magical tree. What did you think?

    Matt - I agree, Old Yeller is a fabulous book. This is one that everyone should take the time to read at some point.

    I will get started on the Alchemyst and Peter and the Starcatchers. Thanks of the suggestions!
