The Forests of Silence
The Lake of Tears
City of the Rats
The Shifting Sands
Dread Mountain
The Maze of the Beast

Deltora safe from the Shadow Lord.

Dragons in our Midst series by Bryan Davis:
Raising Dragons book 1
The Candlestone book 2
Circles of Seven book 3
Tears of a Dragon book 4

Captain says: I like the two people that have dragon powers so they are fully dragon and fully human - they call them anthrozils. Billy is able to breathe fire and Bonnie has wings.

The Second Deltora Quest series by Emily Rodda:
Cavern of the Fear
The Isle of Illusion
The Shadowlands

Captain says: I like how they go to the Shadowland Arena and they look for the pirran pipe. Pirra is now the Shadowlands.

Captain and his dad want The Deltora Quest to be made into a movie...they love it.

July 2010
Gone-Away Lake by Elizabeth Enright
Return to Gone-Away by Elizabeth Enright

Captain says: Both books are really exciting because they found lots of old houses and they got to live in one. And then they get to see some people who used to live there when it was a lake - but now its a swamp.

Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain

Captain says so far: I'm enjoying reading it because he goes and lives on an island, and find some murderers.
