Summary: The Mystery Behind the Stage:The Master Puppeteer
Review: This book is a good way to teach social studies. It explains in novel form a culture that is foreign to most students in the United States. Besides being a good novel, it also has the elements of a good mystery. The ending is unexpected and shows that the love of a friend and a mother is cross-cultural.

Summary: UNBELIEVEABLE!
Review: This book was so good, it is actually unexplainable. I am reading it for a class, but the first day I got it, I read the whole thing. It puts you in so much supense, that you cannot stop reading! This book tells the story of fuedel Japan(my fav. country) and about a boy named Jiro, who has many flawless adventures. He has an amazing friend named Yoshida Kinshi(who, by the way, is way older than him) who helps him throughout the book. Shows the true meaning of friendship. Un-describable.
