One Day and One Amazing Morning on Orange Street Review

One Day and One Amazing Morning on Orange Street
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Who would think that an entire book could be written about a simple orange tree? The author drew me into the lives of the residents of Orange Street, and I never wanted to leave. The children who congregate under the shade of the tree are likeable, smart, and flawed. Ms. Snoops, the oldest resident on the street, is likeable, smart, and flawed as well. Overall, One Day and One Amazing Morning on Orange Street is a beautiful and clever novel.

Kira-Kira (Newbery Medal Book) Review

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and say that Cynthia Kadohata's Newbery winner "Kira-Kira" is a book that you either love or a book that you loathe to the fullest. Well, I'm a thirteen-year old and I enjoyed it to the fullest. And what really bugs me is that it is ADULT reviewers who are saying this book is too depressing for children. ADULT! Have you people ever heard of Bridge to Terabithia. It was just as depressing, if not more (though, brilliant I might add). I'm not even gonna mention last year's Olive's Ocean.
I'm a reader and fan of E. Bird's reviews, but she's got this one all wrong (well, except for maybe the bear trap part). Thank you Amazon, for letting a teen vent!
