    olliebob's book review was featured in The Time of the Fireflies.
    If you loved Circle of Secrets, you will love The Time of the Fireflies! Larissa's family owns an antique shop. One day Larissa hears a phone ring, except it's one of the phones they sell to customers. One of the phones who's lines are disconnected. The voice on the phone tells her to find the fireflies and trust the fireflies. How was she supposed to do that? The real question was, how was she supposed to save her Mama and her baby sister who wasn't even born yet? She had to go back in time, and in doing so, traced her family's misfortune and tragedies all back to one thing. And you'll have to read the book to find out what it is. It was very sweet, and sometimes creepy, and I'd recommend it to grades 4-8, although it may be a little hard for younger readers. I LOVED IT!!!!!!

    olliebob's book review was featured in The Girl Who Could Fly.
    Piper McCloud could fly. This the reason her overprotective parents kept her shut away from the rest of Lowland County. She was always on the farm, except for Sunday, when she was rushed in and out of church. She wasn't even allowed to go to school! She was homeschooled (like me!). Until one day she decided she wanted to fly. She took a leap of faith... right off the roof! She flew! She practiced flying everyday, until... the Lowland County picnic. Her parents were letting her go! She couldn't wait to make friends, eat ice cream, and play with other kids her age. But then, during the game of baseball put on by the kids of Lowland County, Piper ran to catch the ball. It was just a bit to high and so... she flew. She caught the ball but nobody cheered wasn't this what they wanted? The people who had seen her fly told everyone, and when Letitia Hellion found out, she knew Piper just had to come to I.N.S.A.N.E. , her school for gifted children. Piper doesn't hesitate in saying yes, but Letitia now asks her not to fly for a while. If Letitia was helping her, why would she ask her not to do her favorite thing in the world? This book was AMAZING! You can really relate to Piper! It was a beautiful book that kept grins and tears on my face! I recommend it to absolutely anyone and everyone, no matter how old or young! Seriously, read it! Like right now.

    Anyone who loved The daring Book for Girls like I did, needs the companion, The Double-Daring Book for Girls! It's filled with how-to's, tips, and boredom busters! It covers everything The Daring Book for Girls didn't, but that daring girls still absolutely have to know! My copies are so worn out they are starting to fall apart from use! Seriously, a hunk of pages just came off the binding, high praise for any book! XD Every daring girl should have a copy handy at all times!
