book coverBetter Nate Than Ever
Tim Federle

Nate wants nothing more than to leave his small Pennsylvania town, where he fits in with nobody except his best friend Libby, and become a Broadway star in New York City. When auditions are announced for E.T.: The Musical, Nate's got to go. But is he up to lying to his parents (and just about everyone else), navigating the big city on his own, and dealing with a bunch of snotty show biz professionals? This funny, heartfelt read will make you cheer for Nate as his world expands and he discovers a place he can truly fit in. Recommended for readers in grades 5 and up.

book coverBridge to Terabithia
Katherine Paterson

Bridge to Terabithia is about two children, named Jess and Leslie. They meet when Leslie moves into the farm next door. Together, they make a new world called Terabithia. You can only enter on an enchanted rope to get across the stream. I loved it because the characters seemed so real, even the music teacher Miss Edmunds.
