Happy Friday, guys! Onto the weekend and onto the micro-book reviews:
1. Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scott O’Dell
Just reread with friends. Karana was more stoic than I remembered; pragmatism helps you survive.
2. Prisoner of Time by Caroline B. Cooney
Didn’t grab me like the first two books. Devonny’s great, but ending felt random.
3. What Makes Day and Night (Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out Science, Stage 2) by Franklyn Mansfield Branley
Was big into question-and-answer science books when I was young. Loved the art/photos in this one.
4. Words Fail Me: What Everyone Who Writes Should Know about Writing by Patricia T. O’Conner
More about the technical aspect of writing than the creative side. Don’t remember much overall.
5. Mathemagic (Childcraft: the How and Why Library #13) by World Book-Childcraft International
I would actually read a book about math. Let that sink in for a minute.
