Recommendations for 2012 by..... HAYZIE!!!!!
1. Trash by Andy Mulligan
2. Once by Morris Gleitzman
3. Then by Morris Gleitzman
4. Now by Morris Gleitzman
5. Bathsheba Clarice de Trop: Chips, Beans and Limousines by Leila Rasheed

7. Bathsheba Clarice de Trop: Doughnuts, Dreams and Drama Queens by Leila Rasheed
8. Peak by Roland Smith
9. Theodore Boone by John Grisham
10. Hetty Feather by Jacqueline Wilson
WHY???
1. Trash is a great book that has been one of my favorites of this year. I truly loved it because of the format of the story. It was written from different people's perspectives. The adventures that Raphael, Gardo and Rat went on was just gripping and I couldn't put the book down.
2, 3, 4. Once, Then and Now is a great series that I couldn't put down because it was full of thrilling adventure and excitement. The cover on the books doesn't give the book away. Once has a picture of books burning. But from the actual story it is not the main idea. These books are great reads and I would recommend it to others any day.
5, 6, 7. Bathsheba Clarice de Trop is a great series of book that made me laugh so hard I nearly cried. Bathsheba Clarice de Trop goes through a whole lot of drama and she thinks she is a heroine and she also thinks she saved the president.

Review-Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer
This is an AMAZING Book, it is the first in a series of books called 'Theodore Boone'. This is truly the best book I have ever read. The second book in the series is called 'The Abduction' & is about Theodore's friend being kidnapped.
