  2. Title: Tink, North of Never Land

    This book is about Tink in search of pixie dust to give her friend, Terence. It was better than most Disney books I have read.

    I give this book a 4 because it kept me wondering what would happen next. It kept me reading and I finished the book in only 3 days.

    The book could be longer and include more details. I would read more books from this collection.

    In A Tale Dark and Grimm two children named Hansel and Gretel, you might know them, go on a mysterious journey to find nice parents. Along the way some pretty weird things happen to these weird children. I like how the author sometimes had bold letters with him talking to the reader.

    Author: Adam Gidwitz

    Could you imagine getting your head cut off or cutting off your own finger, well in this book it all happens. This is an exciting book that will keep you flipping pages to the very end. So if you are a fan of gore and blood this is a great book for you. This book has nine great stories that two little children follow. When I was reading this book I felt like I was right there in it. This is my favorite book I have read all year. I rate this book a 5 stars

    This book holds many stories of the life of Hansel and Gretel.One story a witch met them,and then they get lost.Hansel had gotten tosee and meet the devil.Gretel met and almost became best freinds with a murderer.On a scale of 1 to 10 this would be an 11.I must warn you though if you read this book to younger children then you will be up all night with a scared child.

  15. Title: A Tale Dark and Grimm
    Author: Adam Gidwitz

    A story of Hansel and Gretal, become bloddier and violent. Which is the true tale of these two fairy tale kids. I recommend this book for people that like thrills and adventure. There is violence, so its not for little kids. The story will keep you reading because it keeps getting better and has a chapter that seems like its not meant for kids my age.

    I rate this a 5 star book. The highest rating for a book I have ever read.

  16. Title: The Magic Tree House Dragon of the Red Dawn
    Author:
    This book was about Jack and Annie. They meet a person named Basho. They are best friends through the entire book. Together they battle a dragon that is said to control the clouds. There was a terrible draught and a fire started.

    I give this book a 4 star rating. It was pretty good but I didnt like is that it didnt give a lot of detail about Basheo and where he came from.

    I recommend this book to others if they like fairy tales and enjoy dragons and battles.

  20. Title:A Tale Dark and Grimm
    Author:Adam Gidwitz
    This book is a very scary version of Hansel and Gretel. Now, I know you might be thinking that it's probably very easy to make it scary. Well, it is. In the beginning of the story, their parents had a servant. His name was Faithful Johannes. They call him faithful because everybody knows that they can trust him no matter what. Now, they have a son. He becomes the new king. They tell Johannes to not show a specific room. In that room, was a picture of a golden princess that he would fall madly in love with her. Now it's up to you to figure out if Faithful Johannes will keep his word and not show the new king.

    This book was about a garden fairy named Lily who wandered into the forest and found an unknown seed. When Lily planted the unknown seed it grew fast into a a big, brown, stinky plant. Half of the other fairies wanted to get rid of the plant. Finally, a fairy named Iris found that the plant is an Ever tree with very delicious fruit. So, they kept the plant to eat.

  26. Title: The Trouble with Tink

    I chose this book because it looked fun, creative,and magical. I rate this book 4 stars for being inspiring and adventurist throughout the book. I only gave this book 4 stars because detail in the end of the book. To make this book better I would have told if Tink fixed the bathtub and if Tink and Peter made up. I compare this book to Lily and the Pesky Plant. Lily and Tink both face a challenge and overcome the problem. When Tink lost her hammer everyone in Pixy Hollow except for Terrence thought she lost her talent. Terrence had hope! We need to always have hope in our life!

  27. Title: Beck and the Great Berry Battle.

    I chose this book because it was the last book in my set. I rate this book 4 and a half stars. I rated this book because of detail and creativity. To make this book better I would have included if they got the hummingbird nest back. I compare this book to all of the fairy books in this series. They all have different stories to tell and each book adds another character(fairy). This book is about when fairy Beck is hit by a falling berry. Beck is told that there has been a war going on over a hummingbird's nest going missing. It turns out that it was all a misunderstanding. Grandfather mole had thought the nest was a hat so the chipmunks did not steal it like they thought.

    H.C. Anderson


    This book was about seven different kind of fairy tales in one book. My favorite two are the fir tree, ugly duckling, and the . The fir tree was about this little tree who sat in the middle of the forest with other trees, then each fall someone would come and cut all the trees down but the fir tree was the only one who was sitting in the middle of the feild. Then one year a family came along and saw the lonley tree and brought it home. Then magicaly during the night grew into a christmas tree. The ugly duckling was about a mom swan that was having babies, while she was sitting on them she had gotton really upset that her baby eggs would not crack. So then that afternoon she had all of her baby ducklings but one. Then later that night the other egg opened and was not as pretty as the others. I am going to give this book a 4 out of 5 because not all the book was intrusting. You have to remember they start with once upon a time!

  30. TITTLE:A TALE DARK AND GRIMM
    BY:ADAM GIDWITZ

    This book is about a fairy tale but a very, very, different fairy tale. In this book the main people are Hansel and Gretle and they both run in to weird things. All there tying to do is get back to were there parents are and i do have to say I dont think any person would do what Hansel and Gretle do, not even on one of those crazy tv shows like FEAR FACTOR. Any ways if I were you and you wanted to read this book I would be careful because there are some creepy weird gross things in this book but I give it a 8 out of 10 star rateing.

    This book has seven fairy tales in it. My favorite story was The Ugly Duckling. In this story there is a mother duck and she is tired of sitting on her eggs. Her eggs start to hatch and she gets so excited! There is still one big egg left and she gets angry because it won't hatch. But as she is thinking the egg starts to break! She is thrilled and she wants to go swimming. She notices how big the duckling is and it doesn't bother her. Other ducks make fun of him, even his siblings. Soon his mom starts hating him. So he runs off! There is more to the story but I am not going to tell you. This is a good book and I give this book 5 stars!!
