Dragon Slayers' Academy #14: Pig Latin - Not Just for Pigs! by Kate McMullan
Reviewed by Elizabeth
"Ello-hay aisy-day." DSA #14: Pig Latin - Not Just for Pigs! is a very trustworthy book. Wiglaf goes with Daisy to Erica von Royale's beautiful house. Although, sadly, Erica's father is sick. He came down with the chicken pox. Can a "doctor" help the king? Read DSA #14 to find out.
Dragon slayer in training, Wiglaf is often described as an animal lover, hates the sight of blood, and likes his family. A little bit. He thinks of himself like those three things while other people describe him as funny, hero, and a true friend.
Kate McMullan is the author and made not just the #14 book creative, she made them all special. From #1 to #19 it's a fun, crazy, and adventurous series.
DSA #14 is a very good book. Almost better than all the other ones. Daisy is steaming hot to what happens in this book. Zelnoc, is Wiglaf's wizard he meets along the way. But he might not be "perfect" at spells all the time.

The Last Olympian reviewed by Allison
The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan
Hyperion Books
Reviewed by Allison
"When all else fails, I am all that's left. Home. Hearth. I am the Last Olympian."
When Percy, and all of his friends are on a quest to stop the Titan Lord Kronos, things go wrong. Friends lost. Bad things come among Camp Half-Blood when Luke Castellan, Percy's evil enemy, sacrifices his body for Kronos to rise.
This mythical, and romantic story has humor, betrayal, trust, and possibly death.
The Last Olympian has an unforgettable cast of characters, Percy Jackson, a very humorous and brave demigod, Annabeth Chase, a kind an hopeful demigod, Thalia Grace, the bravest of Artemis' Hunters, Grover Underwood, a courageous and brave satyr, Tyson, a very loving and brave cyclopes, Rachel Elizabeth Dare, a mortal that becomes something very dangerous, Luke Castellan, an evil, but forgiving demigod, and many more brave heroes.
The Last Olympian is a book full of war, death, and evilness. Rick Riordan did an excellent job making the story fantastic! Rick really pushed himself to make a great story!
The Last Olympian is an awesome book full of death, hope, perseverance, power, loss, trust, friendship, and betrayal. Readers will feel like they're a demigod fighting in the war after they read this book!
I recommend this book for ages 9+.

Dragon Slayers' Academy #1: The New Kid at School by Kate McMullan
reviewed by Danny
The New Kid at School is about a young boy named Wiglaf. His horrible family sends him off to a dragon slaying school. All his father wants is the money and all Wiglaf wants is to get away from his family. The problem is that Wiglaf could never kill anything. He can't even listen to the word "kill!" Will Wiglaf be able to last a day at this school with his pig Daisy? I think DSA #1 is a great book for people 7-12 and i think you should read the DSA series.

DSA #9 is about Wiglaf and Angus finding a dragon egg and trying to keep it a secret and only Erica and Angus know about it. This is a very good book for ages 8+.
I really think that the author did a good job on this book and I also like the illustrations for this book. They make me feel like I'm in the story. This is probably my favorite book in the series so far and I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
So if you like books with good drawings and are easy to read then you will enjoy this series!

The Percy Jackson series is a wonderful book series, but my favorite book in the series is The Last Olympian; I think this because there are so many twists, turns, ad problems that happen in the previous books that get solved in The Last Olympian.
This book, by Rick Riordan, includes intensity, adventure, and even a little humor. The characters in this magical, magnificent, wonderful book are Percy, Annabeth, Grover, Tyson, Luke, Thalia, Kronos, Poseidon, Typhon, Rachel Elizabeth Dare, and pretty much all the other people who either are gods or are just enemies. There are about 300 pages in this book.
This book makes you smarter; such as learning about Greek gods and goddesses, and mythology - which doesn't sound GREAT, but it really is if you read the book.
Rick Riordan is a great author who is talented in many ways! Rick won awards for the writing in these books! So my suggestion is open this book NOW! But you have to read it in order (start with The Lightning Thief!).

Big Nate is the awesomest series you will ever read. Nate is a funny and a nice kid but he is not so well in school. Big Nate is a cool, funny comic. Nate's friend is Francis. Francis is a really nice friend and he is very funny.
The author uses great illustrations and details. Some of the books are how to draw Nate and other characters. The message of the book is to be nice to your friends and trust your instincts.
I recommend Big Nate for 8 and up. Big Nate is a book filled with adventures and it's funny. That's why I like Big Nate. you will love the fiction picture book!!

Dragon Slayers' Academy #19: Little Giant--Big Trouble by Kate McMullan
Reviewed by JP
Dragon Slayer Wiglaf of Pinwick and his friends and also his brother Dudwin go on a special mission to save Angus and Wiglaf's pet Worm. Worm is a dragon that Angus and Wiglaf found but no one knows about a dragon living in DSA. He lives up in the DSA library. But one day there's some trouble?
Knights Noble Conservatory is coming to slay Worm so Wiglaf his brother and friends come to save worm, but then there's even more trouble a "giant" one? Something big takes Worm. Does Wiglaf have the chance of getting Worm back?
This has a theme of teamwork and friendship. Wiglaf in the story shows that he could actually be a Dragon Slayer and Dragon Saver.
This interesting prediction story shows a lesson about loving, caring, and trusting. It's also showing ideas during the story like trust, hope, power, courage, and loyalty. The author is trying to make readers think of what's happening. I think this book should be ages 8 to 11 for kids who like journeys and predictions and great fantasy books. This book is a key or metaphor for friendship because they were all together as a team to help save Worm or will they turn into big "giant!" trouble stew?
In this book I like the illustrations and thought you will too!
This is a great series that you must read.
