Book Review: Redstone Junior High; Zombies ate my Homework, Book 1 Feat. Pixel

 Title: Redstone Junior high; Zombies ate my Homework Book 1

Author: Cara J. Stevens, Fred Borcherot, Minecraft

Have you ever thought that looking like the other kids are the best? If you do, then read Redstone junior high! 

This story is about a farm girl called Pixel who looks different from her 30 brothers and sisters. Her siblings all tease her for being different. But when she arrives at Redstone Junior high, a lot of other kids tease her as well. She thought she was not going to make any friends, but a person with no abilities and looked different came up to her and they talked and laughed. They realised that being different wasn't a problem, and they become best friends.

I like this book because it would teach people not to tease others. Everyone should be nice to each other and work together. So, I will rate this book 10 out of 10.

Book Review: Dairy of a Minecraft Creeper; Book 7 - By Adrian

 Title: Dairy of a Minecraft Creeper Book 7; Genius Juice

Author: Minecraft, Mojang

Have you ever thought that being smart is the best thing ever? Then read Dairy of a Minecraft Creeper book 7 Genius Juice!

This book is about a Minecraft Creeper named Jasper drinking a juice that he thought it made him smart, and outsmarting his friends all the time. People always say that it is not fair that he got smart straight away and all the other people had to study lots of things to become smart, including his human friend, Stu. He wins 2 rounds of Junior MobIQ, a Minecraft test that tells people how smart Mobs are. But at the end, Stu read the label of the juice and told him that the juice didn't actually make him smart. He got very embarrassed and didn't want to enter the final round of Junior MobIQ, but his friends forgave him and told him to enter. When he won, he had to make a speech to tell how he felt being smart. He said "Being smart isn't an instant thing, it's all about the hard work you put in, and that the Mobs around me are the best in the Overworld."

I like this book because it teaches kids to not be bossy and say that the other kids are not smart, because working together is the most important thing. For example; Don't say things like "Oh! You got that question wrong! You're not as smart as I am!" Or "Ha Ha! You can't make the cake I asked for!" 

If I would give this book a rating, I would give it 10 out of 10 because it teaches people to not say that they are the smartest.

Book Review: 100 Things to Know About Planet Earth - Adrian

 Title: 100 Things To Know About Planet Earth

Author: Jerome Martin, Darran Stobbart, Alice James, and Tom Mumbray

 Have you ever wanted to know interesting facts about the earth? Then read 100 Things to Know About Earth!

This book is about all kinds of unusual facts about the earth and land. It also has lots of information for adults and children.

There are lots of things I like about this book.  

For example: 

1. The world's biggest waterfall is an underwater waterfall. The Angel falls is the highest waterfall on land. But the Denmark Strait Cataract waterfall is actually the highest waterfall in the world. The Angel falls is 979 meters tall, but the Denmark Strait waterfall is 3.5 Km tall. 

2. The oldest thing on earth is older than the earth itself. NWA11119 is a grapefruit sized meteor formed about 4.56 Billion years ago. Earth was formed about 4.54 years ago.

3. Africa is bigger... Or smaller...  than Greenland depending on your map. In most maps, Greenland looks bigger than Africa. But Africa is actually 14 times bigger than Greenland. Because making a flat map of the earth is like peeling the curved surface of the ball - It just won't lie flat.

4. The Boring Billion, Was a billion years of nothing. Between 1.8 - 0.8 billion year ago, earth experienced a billion years of total stability. One scientist termed this time "the dullest time on earth - or the Boring Billion. 

5. You don't need an umbrella to shelter from Phantom rain. When the air on the ground is especially warm, rain drops can evaporate as they fall, so they never reach the ground. Weather experts call this virga, but it is also known as Phantom Rain.

If I was to rate this book, I would give it 9 out of 10.
