Terri Libenson is a very talented artist, writer, and storyteller. I was eager to see how she would overcome having a bat mitzvah (with only 8 months to prepare), middle school drama, and her best friend, Emmie’s, close friendship with someone else. My Review:I loved the Emmie & Friends series so much and this new book has made me love it even more! Becoming Brianna had me hooked from page one. Told in alternating past and present chapters, Bri’s heartwarming story unfolds over the eight months leading up to her bat mitzvah–as well as over the course of the big day itself. So why did she ever agree to something that forces her to learn a new language, give a speech, help organize a party, and juggle drama at school and home?! As the big event inches closer, Bri wonders if it’s all worth it. Chien Shiung worked so hard that a little while later, newspapers declared that she had been given a new title: The Queen of Physics! I like this book because Chien Shiung proved persistence and she tried her best and faced challenges even when things were hard.ABOUT :Middle school is full of challenges.Įveryone knows how much brainy Bri likes the spotlight (not). She proved yet another theory but for the third time, they got the Nobel Prize and she didn’t. Another two physicists Richard Feynman and Murray Gell- Mann needed Chien Shiung’s help. They won the Nobel Prize but again, she didn’t. She even cancelled her trip to China to see her parents in her commitment to her work. Chien Shiung helped two physicists Yang Ning and Lee Dao. Many people say she should have won the Nobel Prize but she didn’t. She proved other people’s theories right or wrong with her knowledge and studies. Then she traveled to Berkeley, California to get deeper into her studies of atoms. Later, she was chosen to lead the march to General Chiang’s headquarters. She went to the National Central University. She was chosen to lead their “underground group” a group to fight against the unfair government. At night after her classes were over, she read textbooks about physics and electricity and atoms. Shien Shiung learned all she could there and then she went to Suzhou, fifty miles away. Queen of Physics: How Wu Chien Shiung Helped Unlock the Secrets of the Atom By Teresa Robeson The Queen of Physics is about an Asian woman named Wu Chien Shiung. Overall, I think this was a great book and I look forward to reading the next one in the series. “Her skin was sallow, her eye sockets dark and sunken.” In this part, I think the author did a great job of describing the scene and creating a visual for the reader to see in their head. He held up his hands and found they were fuzzy and indistinct,” the book stated. My favorite part of the book was when Bob the nice titan brings Percy and Annabeth to Akhlys, who can make them invisible. Meanwhile, Percy Jackson and his girlfriend Annabeth Chase are falling down into Tartarus: a giant pit of doom where gods imprison their enemies known as the Underworld. The Heroes of Olympus, Book Four: The House of Hades, by Rick Riordan The fourth book in the second Percy Jackson series starts off when Leo Valdez, Piper McLean, Jason Grace, Hazel Levesque, and Frank Zhang are flying through an angry mountain gods area in their flying ship: the Argo II, and are getting pelted with giant rocks. That is the reason why I liked Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone. ![]() ![]() I liked this book because of when harry touched Professor Quirrell. He defeats Professor Quirrell by touching him and the stone was destroyed. After that harry see’s Voldemort again trying to steal the sorcerers stone (he is not really Voldemort and his Professor Quirrell with Voldemort’s head). It is an invitation to Hogwarts a school of witchcraft and wizardry. ![]() Then exactly on Harry’s eleventh birthday an expelled wizard (who is also the gamekeeper) named Hagrid smashes down the door and gives harry his letter. Then so many come in that they go into a houseboat. Then one day letters start coming in and his aunt and uncle don’t let harry see it. harry is sent to his aunt, uncle and cousin who are all very mean to him. The book was about Harry Potter (who is a wizard) survives when Voldemort (who is a bad wizard) try’s to kill harry. The title of this book is Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone by J K Rowling.
