What would you do if it was up to you to save your family's farm? When a factory farm is planning to move in next door and threatens the livelihood on the Three Oaks farm, save the farm is exactly what Elizabeth has to do. She discovers a talking otter (!) who tells her how to save Three Oaks. The otter is called Gaia, and is begging young Elizabeth to help save the farm. Will she just turn her back on the world and see her beloved farm and all the plants in it die? Or will she be brave and save her family's farm? Read Gaia Girls to find out!
My favorite part was at field day, when someone is teasing Elizabeth and she discovers her powers. She gets so mad that she sends a wave of grass at the bully, and knocks him over. She never knew she could do things like that before.
I would recommend this book to girls ages 9-15.

Brian's Return by Gary Paulsen
Brians Return is a book about a boy named Brian and he decides to return to the Canadian wilderness. Brian plans all the things he will bring on his adventure. But will Brian survive??
My favorite part was when Brian was packing up for his trip and he was figuring out what he should bring. Also I really like his visits with Caleb.
I think children who are 10-14 years old will enjoy this book
I think both boys and girls will read this book
