For this activity, choose a book that you like and write a short review of it. In the review, tell us what the book is about and what you like about it.
On your blog, share your book review with a photo or illustration (drawing) of the book.
The book I am choosing to write a review about is Holes by Louis Sachar because one of my favourite books, it also is very good because it gives you clues to what will happen in the end. The main character is Stanley Yelnats. Stanley is sent to camp green lake in Texas. While he is at camp green lake he makes some new friends.
