Kids Books - Adventure Books

My friend Teah recommended this series to me. Now I am happy she did! I love the boxcar children mysterys!

Where do I even begin? Honestly, I loved this book along with the preceding one, Shadows on the Sea. It was very informative about life during WW2 as well as the aftermath in later chapters of the book. Wendy definitely endured a lot more than Jill. So the first book was more of like a foreshadowing to the *actual* main character. That's how I see it. The story didn't really go anywhere with Jill, apart from the last 50~ pages of the book. But even then, it did not really add up. To summarize book 1: The girl, Jill, finds a hidden submarine, hides, calls police, but nothing happens because the submarine escaped. Mostly gossip around Winter Haven. And Nana's secret turns out to be.. well.. not all that confidential. It has you expecting something EPIC but Nana's secret is a total let-down. You're better off skipping to the end pages of the book to skip all that unnecessary suspense. However, despite this, I still very much enjoyed the story and how it was inspired by the author's own personal life, because Joan Hiatt Harlow (the author) experienced WW2... and it's so cool hearing her story. To Summarize book 2: In comparison to Jill's story, Wendy's involved active warfare, imprisonment, spies, and refugees for instance. There was a lot at stake. Berlin was way more intense than peaceful and cottagey Maine. I thought Wendy's relationship with her mother was intangible to describe. It was very.. complicated? To say the least. Wendy bounces back and forth from loving her mom to hating her mom etc. Wendy keeps a lot of secrets from Adrie (mom) because her mom a) works for a spy organization & b) very short-tempered. Because of this, this convinces a 15yo girl to take drastic measures and travel all the way to Sweden with a bunch of trusted strangers. Fast forward and now you have 19yo Wendy, who's identity is a complete mess (is she Jewish, German, American or all 3? Hard to say.). My only major critique is that Wendy did not meet up with Jill again, at least directly. I was very surprised that very little was mentioned about Jill. Although numerous times Wendy says Jill is her friend, I am not entirely convinced this is the case. Finally, I'm really confused about Barret. Again, DESPITE THIS, this couple-series is still GREAT. I was more or less nitpicking. I highly encourage reader to acknowledge the author's afterword. I may check out more of Joan's books but by far I consider Shadows on the Sea & The Watcher to be the best... this is the only series-type Joan has written, which tells you a lot about how much her readers loved the books!

This book is awesome, and it focus's more on the Isle. Mal daughter of Maleficent, got mad at Evie who is daughter of the Evil queen, for not inviting her to Evie's party, sound familiar? But now they are friend's, including, Jay son of Jafar, and Carlos, son of Cruella de vill. After some time in Auradon, they get messages, to go back to the Isle, but in different ways, Mal get's a text, Evie get's a comment, Carlos gets a Email, and Jay get a note. Want more? Then go read it yourself!

The book The Isle of the Lost written by Robert Venditti. I would recommend this book even though it's a comic. I think that the author made the characters act very alike with the movie. Even though some of them might have not seem real, the drawing is pretty. The story is base on the movie except the author kinda moved the things that happened around a little bit because in the movie, it is said that Mal's mother's cane was on the United States of Auradon, which queen belle and the beast are the ruler. But in the book, it's said that Mal's mother's cane has been on the isle of the lost and her mom had ordered her to get her cane back to her. While that time they had school on the isle of the lost and Evie was a new student. Mal didn't like her in the beginning and bullied her. But then she had an idea that would let Evie fall asleep for one thousand years because her mother's cane has a curse that the person who touches it would fall into sleep for one thousand years. So she decided to bring Evie with her and frame her. But who knows that during the adventure to find her mother's cane, Mal started to think that Evie might not be such a bad person. So when they finally found the cane and Evie tried to reach over to it, Mal pushed Evie away and touched the cane first to sacrifice herself instead of Evie. Luckily Mal didn't fall into sleep for one thousand of years because she was the daughter of the cane's owner. The curse didn't work on her, so she was very happy that she made a new fried but at the same time the cane disappeared. When all the kinds got home, their parents said the same thing to them that they were disappointed at them. They didn't feel bad at all, instead, they were all pretty happy about their parents calling them a disappointment. On the other side, Ben was getting ready to become a king and having meetings and solving problems for the citizens. I think what the book was trying to tell us that you don't have to become what others expect you to be, and what others think about you doesn't matter.
