Pendragon-The Book Series

This is a nonstop thriller, and can be read by anyone, boy or girl. I read the first one, and then I was hooked. I finished the series, and I have introduced a couple to the series. One of them finished the first two in a day or so, and she too is hooked. I have never read a book that is so good, and has a great story line. I think DJ Machale, the author, wasn't expecting so many people to read and love his books. This is a 10 out of 5.

The Adventurers-The Game

This is a fun game with an Indiana Jones feel. You are trying to collect as much treasure as you can and get out of the runes. There are many things that allow you to die or be trapped. Walls might close in on you and sandwich you to death. A giant boulder could crush you or trap you. You might risk going over lava to get ahead of the boulder. You might be on an old bridge and it could snap under you. Or you could fail getting off a river, leading you to death by a bottomless waterfall. If you get out alive, you should be proud. Luckily, you get another explorer if the 1st on dies. I give this an 8 out of 5.

Summoner Wars-The Game


I had a lot of fun playing this game. It has phenomenal art, it's easy to play, and it has a good concept. The rules are really easy to understand. There are four teams-Elves, Goblins, Dwarves, and Orcs. The Orcs are all about strategy. The goblins can appear all over, making them hard to deal with. This is a definite 10 out of 5. Enjoy it yourself!

A Christmas Carol-The Movie

This movie is really funny at some parts, but if you are young, you might get scared. It startled me a couple times, but it was very good. I only had one problem with the movie. The sound is blasting loud. The CGI is really good, and unlike some other movies, the eyes looked great. Jim Carrey plays three characters, even though most sources say he plays four. I give this movie an 8 out of 5.

Heat-The Book

This is a baseball lover's dream come true. It is a great book; when I was reading it I couldn't put it down. Mike Lupica is a great author, and if you have read any of his books, you know what I mean. I like the obstacles he makes the main character, Michael Arroyo, face. I give this book a 7 out of 5.


Scrappers-The Game

It's a frenzy on the factory floor!!! This is a great game where your goal is to create an invention. I really like the art design on the game, but the rules are a little bit confusing. Once you get the basic idea of the game, it's really fun. I  recommend this game to all kids and kids at heart. I give it an 8 out of 5.


WALLE-The Movie

This movie is quite funny, but it has a message. It is quite suspensful, and the captain of the ship is very funny. Maybe I like him so much because he's fat. Another awesome character is the cricket. Twinkie! If you've seen the movie, you know what I'm talking about. I've seen it twice, and I'd like to see it again. The credits are funny, too. I'd give this movie an 8 out of 5.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl-The Video Game

This is probably the most outragous video game ever! Some of the character are suckish, like Mario and Peach, but most of the characters are really good, like Kirby, Luigi, and Lucas. The best things about the game are the characters and the arena choices. They give you about 20 places, plus you can customize at least 30 of your own. I'd rate this game a 10 out of 5.
