Best Books: A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
A Series of Unfortunate Events is a book series by Lemony Snicket. The story starts with Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire learning that their home has burned down. Their parents where killed in the fire and now they move from guardian to guardian, home to home with an evil man named Count Olaf following them, trying to steal their fortune.
Many people say that this story is not good for kids. These people are wrong. Even though many bad things happen to the children, the story really follows how clever the children are when trying to escape an evil madman. Reading how all of the children, even baby Sunny, solve the mystery is my favorite part.
Personally I love the series because it is full of imaginative characters and even though the books are kind of depressing the dark humor makes it better. People who love stories with clever children and love a good mystery novel than this is for you. I am currently on the seventh book and I think it is worth it to read them all. The mystery gets better and there are more clues in each book.

Epic Authors: George O'Connor
At the library I met with the author/illustrator of many graphic novels, George O'Connor. He is super funny and in his books he writes the great story and adds great illustrations to make epic books. He's most famous for his Olympians series, retelling the stories of the Greek gods. The Olympians books are the reason I love his writing.
The books tell Greek myths in an inspiring graphic novel format. The books are serious and some parts have jokes. My favorite Olympians book is Zeus: King of the Gods, because it tells about the dawn of time and how Mount Olympus was chosen. I also love Hades: Lord of the Dead, because it tells how you get to the Greek myth underworld. His books are for people who love Greek myths. I love the art work so much, I based a comic strip character off of how he draws the Cyclopes.
His next series after the last Olympians book which is about Hestia and Dionysus is Norse gods. Since I don't know much about Norse so I am looking forward to that.
The library class where I met him was super fun. We got to make our own comics from random slips of paper out of three hats. I got, "A talking cactus goes to buy a pony at Sesame Street"

Game On! Little Big Planet Part 3
Little Big Planet 3 finally came out!!!! Like usual, Sackboy is back battling the forces of evil, but this time he is not alone.
Our crafty (and yes pun definitely intended) hero is joined by Swoop, Oddsock, and Toggle. Swoop can fly and of course, swoop down on enemies. Oddsock is a dog who can run up walls and do wall jumps. Toggle can switch between Big Toggle and Tiny Toggle. Our heroes now face Newton, a new threat to not Craftworld but Bunkum. Bunkum is a new place full of more strange characters.
How will our heroes defeat Newton? Actually, I have no idea because I have not beaten the game yet. Soooo... anyways get the game on your PlayStation Systems and see our heroes defeat Newton.
GAME ON!!!!

Letter to Nintendo part II
Greetings Again Nintendo,
In August of 2013 I sent you guys a suggestion letter and posted it to my blog saying that you should make a Mario game with customizable levels. Here is a link to it . In your kind letter back to me you said you had nothing announced at the time.
Thank You,

P.S. Shovel Knight is AWESOME!!!!

I should be happy that you came out with Super Mario Maker but you made one mistake, you only put it on the Wii-U. I would love to play it and even review it on my blog but I only have a 3DS and Wii Mini. I can't afford the Wii-U so now I cannot play the game I've been waiting years to play. I am only 11 and not a game developer so I don't know why you made it only on the Wii-U. If you could please make it for the 3DS and I and all 3DS fanatics will be very happy. I will make so many levels!!!
Thank You,
Exploding Toy Box
