The Boy Who Spoke Dog 11 reviews Clay Morgan
Puffin, 2005
My 9 year old son loved this book.
+ The Boy Who Spoke Dog; a fairly good read. + a very thrilling book
I am a mother of two sons, ages 9 and 3. We read this book for eldest son's book club. He enjoyed it and asked to read "just one more chapter" constantly.

May Bird and the Ever After: Book One (May Bird)
+ May Bird and the Ever After + Rare fun, indeed.
What an incredible story. My nine year old is begging to read one more chapter every night. We have actually also read book two which is just as good as book one and possibly even better. I am so glad that book three is out and I am anxiously waiting for it to arrive. This book was great fun ...

Gilda Joyce, Psychic Investigator (Gilda Joyce) 21 reviews Jennifer Allison
Dutton Juvenile, 2005
These characters really have character - liked the story, too
+ Sparkling writing! + very interesting book.
Gilda Joyce is a little odd but downright likeable. Inspired by Harriet the Spy (like I was at her age) Gilda has 'career' plans. But Harriet only inspired me to carry around a notebook. Gilda's been inspired to be a psychic investigator.
While she likes to snoop, Gilda does not like to lie. In ...
