Two For One


We went to the Village last night for the fireworks, so I didn't get a chance to post Olivia's review.


Here is yesterday's and today's


The Unauthorized Autobiography of Lemony Snicket


The Unauthorized Autobiography of Lemony Snicket is by Unknown. It is about the V.F.D., Beatrice, and coded messags. Part of it is the anwer to: Who is Lemony Snicket? The book has 13 sections. The sections have photos, letters, and one even has a secret meeting!


This book wasn't a story. It was kind of like the books where they tie loose threads. In this book, I learned who Beatric is. I also learned the V.F.D. code. "Disguise Training: Required Materials: Face". I thought that was funny.
I would recommend this book to people who like the series A Series of Unfortunate Events.
Artemis Fowl: The Graphic Novel
Artemis Fowl was written by Eoin Colfer and Andrew Donkin. It was illustrated by Giovanni Rigano and Paolo Lamanna. Artemis Fowl is about a boy who has been searching for the peopl (fairies, dwarves, elves) all his lif (which is quite short, even though he's a mastermins at 12). Finnally he finds a fairy, and to get her book, (it's kinda like their Bible). He gives her a antidote to some disease she has. Using that, he captures a fairy. And holds he for ranso,. The fairy's trie to rescue her, but Artmeis will only give her up for one thing.
Some of the reasons that Artemis Fowl The Graphic Novel is better than regular Artemis Fowl is because: One you can actually see Artemis and Foaly. Two, it's more comical. Three, you can see the inventions Foaly has. And Four: it's Awesome.
I recommend this book to people who like fairies, goblins, etc.

Graphic Novel page 2


It reads:
panel 1: The next new moon...... "Jimma better be in position!"
panel 2: And then....
panel 5: "You're lucky I won't kill you"

I don't know if it will work for you, but when I click on the picture, it enlarges it.

Olivia's Book Review

The Tales of Beetle The Bard is by J. K. Rowling. It has several short stories in it. Some of the stories are "The Warlock's Hairy Heart", "The Three Brothers", and "The Fountain of Fair Fortune". My favorite story is "The Three Brothers".

One of the reasons that I liked this book was because it has a variety. In "The Warlock's Hairy Heart", it is about an evil wizard. In "Babbity Rabbity and Her Cackling Stump", a foolish king tries to kill all the wizards. In "The Three Brothers", the three brothers get gifts from death because they twarted death. The youngest brother who was the wisest, asked death for something so death couldn't follow him. "And death, most unwillingly, handed his own cloak of invisitbility".

I would recommend this book to people who like Harry Potter.
