The next review that was written by Basketball Dad on theMDsports was similar to the first one. He talks about how long it took to put it together and basically says you better give yourself a lot of time. He talks about his three kids playing with it and that they love it and get a lot of use out of it (Basketball Dad par.3)‚ which is one of my criteria. He is currently waiting for some replacement parts to be sent in to fix the rims that started breaking and says “I will update my review and add

The Silence of Six Silence of six‚ a book written my E.C. Myers‚ discusses the adventures‚ or rather the misadventures of max‚ a high school soccer player who dabbles in hacking. This book has almost no background information‚ or character build-up. Although it is easy to figure out exactly what is happening‚ it can be difficult to understand why the things that happen are happening‚ in the beginning. I thought this book was a good read‚ and it was also a quick read‚ seeing as how I am an unusually

4 to 12 years. The book is brilliantly written and full of suspense it’s as if your eyes are glued to the page. Its so difficult to accept what happened to this young innocent boy for no reason his mother just singled him out and treated him so badly compared to his two other brothers who she treated so well. This book is one that you will read over and over and never forget. “One Childs Courage To Survive” is the quote written on the front of the book and sums up this book extremely well.

Even though the book was interesting and entertaining‚ I dislike some features of the book. On a scale of 1-10‚ I would rate the book 4 stars because the story includes themes on violence‚ lack of equality‚ and even the corrupt use of power. First of all‚ brutality is portrayed by Napoleon because he requires innocent animals and even his rivals to confess their crimes and be murdered publicly. For example‚ according to Animal Farm‚ the text states‚ "Immediately the dogs bounded forward‚ seized
