What Do You Do With An Idea is an interesting book written by Kobi Yamada and Illustrated by Mae Besom. The book is about a boy who has an idea and at first, he didn’t like the idea and pretended it wasn’t his but it made him feel happy and cared about when he was close to it. So he decided to care for it and feed it or give it attention even though people didn’t believe the idea he liked it. Eventually one day he was with the idea and it suddenly sprouted wings and flew into the air and his idea was spread out across the world. In my opinion, I thought that this book was very interesting and had a good story to it. I think that the moral of the story was to always keep your idea’s or remember them and even write them down because one day they might to take flight and surprise others. All in all, I thought that this book had really amazing pictures to go with a really amazing story and I hope we read something from that author again.

Alfred Nobel, The man Behind The peace prize is a book written by Kathy-jo Wargin and illustrated by Zachary Pullen. This book is about the man who invented the peace prize, it starts off with him making an explosive liquid with a thought that it would be useful to the mining industry or military. Sadly, it ended up not being used for either of those. With help from his brothers and his dad, he managed to make a substance that could be ignited by gunpowder. He and his brothers began selling this to their homeland (Sweden).  They called this substance blasting oil. Eventually, orders started coming from all places looking for this substance. Luckily, as he hoped, people started using it for building rivers, destroying bridges and other good uses. When he was getting older, his brothers were testing the blasting powder when their lab exploded. They both died. The newspaper thought that one of the brothers was Alfred so everyone thought he was dead. When he really died he put the rest of his money towards a prize that could be achieved by making a significant peaceful action. In my opinion, this book was meant for 10-14-year-olds. I think that this was more of a teaching book than a funny book, but I also think that it told a good history of an interesting person. All in all, I think that this book was more a book about history than an exciting book but I still liked it a fair amount.

I think that this book was cool and it was also one of my favourite books we’ve read I hope we read something from this author again.

Spoon is about a spoon who feels like he is worse than all the other dinner utensils so he gets down. Eventually, he realized that he could do lots of stuff that the other utensils couldn’t so he was happy in the end. I thought this was a good book for kids between 5 and 10 years old because its words are minimal but it does have jokes that you might have to be a bit older to understand. All in all, I really liked the humour and cute pictures in this book, I am rating this book four out of five stars what would you rate it.

Stolen words is a amazing picture  book written by Melanie Florence  and illustrated by Gabrielle Grimard. This story was about a girl who had just made a dream catcher at school and now was walking home with her grandpa. She asked him what granddaughter was in Cree so he told her about residential school and how they took the words of Cree away from him. So she felt bad for him and gave him a dream catcher. The next day she asked the librarian for a manual about Cree so when she walked back from school with her grandpa she gave him the book and then it ended with him saying nôsisim is granddaughter. I thought that  this book was extremely heartwarming because the little girl probably made his day and I also felt bad because the grandpa didn’t get to spend time with his family and had his culture taken away. Overall this  story was very nice and had a happy ending
