“This story is about a tough, scruffy, greedy, fearless, scary pirate. He was very upset when his parrot died and he could not stop crying. Even though the pirate was very tough, he cries just like everyone else cries.

I like this book because it uses repetition in its words, which is a good tool when reading to young readers. It uses adjectives to describe the pirate such as scary, tough, fearless, and greedy and it can be used to teach about descriptive words when talking about a person. Lastly, this book teaches readers that it is okay to cry sometimes, especially when you lose someone that you love.

My favorite quote from this book is, "All pirates cry, and so do I."

I would relate this book to How I Became a Pirate by Melinda Long and Do Pirates Take Baths? by Nadine Bernard Westcott because all of these books are about pirates and aimed for young readers. ”

“This story is about a koala named Koala Lou, who was loved by all of the other animals, but most of all by her mother. One day, Koala Lou's mother became too busy to tell her how much she loved her and Koala Lou became very sad. She decided that she would enter the Bush Olympics and win an event so that her mom would tell her that she loved her again.

This is a great story about a different kind of animal that children may not know much about. It teaches about family values, love, and friendship. It also teaches about dedication and strength.

A quote from this book is "She saw her mother in the crowd and imagined her saying again, Koala Lou, I DO love you! and her heart filled with hope.

I would relate this book to Mem Fox's Possum Magic because they both are about exotic animals and family values. ”

“This is the story of a possum who becomes invisible. One day, he decides that he wants to become visible again and Grandma possum helps him find the cure that will make him visible. The two go on a culinary tour, eating foods that might help to make baby possum visible.

I enjoyed this book and I would use it in my classroom in the future. This book teaches students about different cultures and foods. It also teaches about family qualities and love. This book gives possums a positive image and allows children to become familiar with an animal they may not know a lot about, even though it is a fictional story.

I would relate this book to others such as Where the Forest Meets the Sea by Jeannie Baker because they both deal with Australian topics.

A delicious quote from this story is, "Because she couldn't be seen, she was safe from snakes, which is why Grandma Poss made her invisible in the first place." ”
