Delaware (Delly) Pattison is bad, wrong, trouble.
She never means to be those things, it just happens. It’s not her
fault that she finds surpresents or that she enjoys going on
Dellyventures and no one else likes these things.
One
day Delly has a feeling that a surpresent is coming her way. However,
she is disappointed to discover that what she thinks is her surpresent
is just a new kid in town, Ferris Boyd.
Ferris
Boyd loves to play basketball, but does not like to be touched nor does
Ferris Boyd talk. Delly decides to make Ferris Boyd her project. Delly
decides that if she befriends Ferris Boyd then she will no longer be bad, wrong, or trouble.
Becoming Ferris Boyd’s friend will help keep her out of trouble and
hopefully get her more Delly Days, but can she do it while defending her
new friend and herself.
Katherine
Hannigan does a wonderful job telling Delly’s story. Delly begins the
story always getting into trouble and being quite selfish. However, as
the story progresses you see Delly begin to grow by becoming Ferris
Boyd’s friend and by beginning to do things for others. Nevertheless,
Delly soon faces a difficult decision and must decide to either stay
quiet or help a friend.

The Genius Files: Mission Unstoppable by Dan Gutman
Meet
Coke and Pepsi! Twins who were chosen to be members of the Young
American Geniuses, a special division of the Genius Files. The only
problem is--they didn’t know they were chosen to be members and now
someone is out to kill them.
In the course of several days and several hundred miles, Coke and Pepsi have had to jump off of a cliff wearing wing suits, escape from a burning school, climb their way out of a sand dune pit where they were left to die, and visit the largest ball of twine to save it from an attack.
The first in a series, Mission Unstoppable, is an action packed book perfect for any reader who loves adventure. Follow along with Coke and Pepsi as they make their way cross country to save themselves and other members of the Young American Geniuses division.
