Reviews

I found old book reports from when I was in 5th grade. Keeping my reviews true to what I wrote, and saving them in the year I would have read them:

If the five friends catch the monster of Malbery Ave., the boy's at St. Luke's will come to their party. The monster would boo old ladies and get their purses SPOILER: the monster was Thaddeus Taylor.
