Henry and Mudge get the Cold Shivers

by Cynthia Rylant

book report by Kate Vezzani

Fiction book

Henry and Mudge get the Cold Shivers is mostly about a young boy named Henry and his dog named Mudge,both of them get sick. It’s a boring day at home .In the end they’re a normal family again.

I like this book because I like the dog Mudge and think he is funny. Also Mudge is a saint bernard so is my dog .I am always so eager to turn the page.

My favorite part is when the sickness is over.

Henry is a kind and active boy but when it comes to sick days he is not active at all.

Fiction book.

The book is about kids that don’t want to be laughed at.

What I like about the book is it teaches you how people that were laughed at felt. My favorite part of the book is when they say don’t laugh at me. The main characters are a boy with glasses, a girl with braces, a beggar,and a boy that was born differently.

Miss Rumphius is mostly about a little girl who is named Alice and she wants to be like her grandfather. She is going to visit far away places,live by the water ,and change the world. And she does all of that when she grows up. Miss Rumphius changes the world in a beautiful way.

I like this book because it is inspiring. It is inspiring because it tells you need to cause it, you need to change the world some how in a good way.

My favorite part of the book is when Miss Rumphius changes the world by planting Lupines everywhere making the world more beautiful.

Miss Rumphius is a sweet person. She cares for others and helps. She loves children and the world.
