The Awesome Book
Our Only May Amelia, is a awesome book.It gives you a word about the pass and tells you how to be nice and not mean.I say that the middle and the end because of the drama and the effects, but the beginning is good also, but if you don't like the first chapter don't stop keep going.so take my word and read it,it's awesome and will teach you a good lesson for school. so tell your friends and family about this book.

A Good Book
Our Only May Amelia was a good book. It told you about the old days . Things I did' not like are that they used words that we don't use now like Chinoke or Nasle.It was a good story.I like I like how they use a boat instead of a plain

Great Book!
This book didn't look interesting to me when I was first recommended it, but about 50 pages in, the book was exiting and a fun read.
