Four great books for kids

"Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey" by Jill O’Conner
If you love chocolate raise your hand! Yup, that would be just about everyone. So, if you like chocolate and other sweets as much as I do, you’ll love this cookbook. It is full of amazing, delicious recipes for everyone. Try the Heart of Darkness Brownies on page 17. They are to die for – just ask my fellow staffers.

"Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer
This series is fantastic! Stephenie Meyer has an engaging writing style that just sucks you in and the romance, suspense, and supernatural twist will keep you up all night. You WILL be thirsty for more!

"Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy" by Gary D. Schmidt
This is the best children’s book I’ve read in the last two years – just read it!!! This story, which is based on historic circumstances, delves into the meaning of race, religion, social pressure and the sometimes foggy world of right and wrong. Powerful and moving, this book will keep you thinking for at least a week.

"In the Heart of the Sea" by Nathaniel Philbrick
This book is the amazing and heartbreaking true story that inspired Moby Dick by Herman Melville. It is historical, haunting, at times harrowing, and ultimately hopeful – definitely a wonderful read.
