Revolution

Revolution

by Deborah Wiles


In Greenwood, Mississippi during the summer of 1964, Freedom fighters arrive from the northern states to register African Americans to vote. It's a tumultuous time for our nation and for Sunny, the main character. Her life is turned upside down with the arrival of a new step-mother and step-siblings. She starts acting out and gets caught sneaking into the community pool after it's closed. During her swim at the pool, she literally runs into a mystery boy and they're lives become entangled throughout the summer. It's compelling historical fiction about the Civil Rights Movement in the South, choosing right from wrong, and young people standing up for themselves.

This book is mostly a funny book that some people can relate to
like if you are in middle.

First, some of the main characters are Nate, Teddy, Francis, Gina, Mrs Godfrey. Some not so important characters might be mr. Rosa
Nate’s Dad, Arthur, miss. Clarke, Mrs. Shipulsk,

Second, What really the problem is he is starting to get bad grades and gina is happy about that because they are enemies so that starts a big fight that leads them into student council but Nate is just trying to beat gina at something so he does not beat gina.

Suddenly, he tries his best in class and he is doing much in class plus his grades are going up he is now much better than Gina in

Because of Mr. Terupt

A Story of One Amazing Class
Image result for because of mr.terupt book

            “Seven kids, one class, and one amazing teacher.”
This quote came from the book “Because of mr.terupt”. Seven kids named Danielle, Peter, Alexia, Jeffery, Anna, Jessica, Luke, and last but not least Mr. Terupt, these people make up a class in 5th grade. These remarkable characters main spend the school year in the class and in the hospital.

These kids have to suffer because when snow started to fall, the seven kids were told that they could play outside by Mr. Terupt. One kid threw a snowball, which was the biggest mistake of his life, he put Mr. Terupt in a… coma.

These kids did not only have to suffer Mr. Terupts coma-problem but have to suffer their own problems. All seven kids solve their bullying problems and somehow solve their parents problems.
I feel that the author tried to tell you that bullying does not solve anything, and that not always to rely on teachers or parents to solve problems for you. The author is trying to say YOU can fix your own problems, and to help others with their own problems (sometimes) to help find a solution.

I really like this book because every night my dad would say  “Lights out!”  While I was still reading the book. So I would turn off the lights but, take out a flashlight and keep reading! This shows that it is impossible to put this book down until you know what happens to not only Mr.Terupt, but you start to really wonder what is going to happen to the kids!

If you ever want to find out what happens to Mr.Terupt and the kids, go to a public library or bookstore  (or order online) “Because of Mr.Terupt”
