I read the book Emily’s Fortune and I thought that it was great. I thought that it was great because it was really funny because of the way they spoke. I also liked it because they went on a fun adventure which is what I like in books. Other thoughts that I have about this book is that it was cool that all of Emily’s friends names went together to be ready, aim and fire. Another part that I liked in this book was that Emily and Jackson became friends and helped each other through the journey anyone that like adventure books will enjoy this book very much. Jackson especially helped Emily a lot.

ReplyDeleteI read the book Emily’s Fortune, it is a very good book and it is very funny. The book is about a girl named Emily and a boy named Jackson that have to get her to her aunt far away without the bandits getting her. It is also about Emily and Jackson helping each other along the way. It is also funny because Emily has a turtle that is Emily’s best friend; it was a good funny book. I think it is a really good book for 4th graders and if you like things that are funny, this book is really good.
I read the book Emily’s Fortune and I loved the book I loved the book because it was set in the past and I liked to read about the past. I liked the book because there was a lot of action in the story. My favorite part in the book is when Jackson helps Emily get to her aunt’s house and they because very good friends. I think this book is good for people who like action and good friendship.

Also the book was good because there where parts in the book that I really liked in it. But another reason that the book was really good because it was a really fun book to read. I would rate this book 5 stars because it was really fun to read.
ReplyDeleteI read Emily’s Fortune. I didn’t like this book. All it was about was a girl named Emily tries to get to her aunt’s house. I didn’t like this book because it wasn’t the kind of reading I like. I like adventure books I also like comedy books. Emily’s Fortune was neither of those things. Besides it wasn’t even my level book it was way too easy. Also some pages had only had a few ridiculously too big words. I didn’t see how that was a fourth grade level book, or even a third grade book. I didn’t like this book at all. The book was pointless, I love reading but this book just wasn’t good. But if you want to read a book about a girl running around the state you will like this. This book was about well I basically explained the book. So she meets a boy that teaches her to climb a tree. Dumb right, that’s why I didn’t like Emily’s Fortune. This is why I don’t like Emily’s Fortune.

I read the book Emily’s Fortune I really liked because it was a very jam packed it wasn’t slow moving.

This was a chilling story about 9 year old Emily and I enjoyed reading it with my friends.
