Summary: Cool Book
Review: The story Something Upstairs is a very thrilling story in which Kenny the main character moves to Providence, Rhode Island from southern California. Providence is a pretty old town. One day Kenny pried up the attic door. He saw a fancy. He later found out the fancy's name is Caleb. Caleb is a slave who was murdered, but he doesn't know who murdered him. He's asked Kenny to investigate his murder. Kenny said he would investigate his murder. When Kenny is investigating Caleb's murder he finds out that he is supposed to murder Caleb. At the end of the book you will be surprised to see what happens.
I would recommend this book to who ever dreams about going into the past, and investigating a murder that you feel was impossible to have happened.

Summary: The Review of Somethings Upstairs
Review: This book has action and mystery. I recommend this book to 5th graders. About 10 year olds should read this. This book is easy to read. From my expirence, 5th graders like mysteries. In this book Kenny, a boy, and Caleb, a dead slave, have to find Calebs murderer. Or else Caleb will be trapped as a dead slave forever. With that, there is tons of action between the characters while the book is going. It is a mystery because they have to guess on who the killer is. If they are right they have to kill him/her. Then kenny will go back to his world and Caleb will be free.

Summary: Something Upstairs, by Avi
Review: This book is a good read for kids just starting the young adult readers book. It is about a boy named Kenny Huldorf, who had just moved into a new house in Providence Rhode Island. He is living in a house that was owned by many different people, 12 families to be exact, dating back to 1636 the day it was built. His parents give him the attic for his room, though he does not know there is a little room at then end of his room. It was used for a slave living quarters. One night when kenny is asleep, he hears a noise comming from the room, he came to investigate and he saw some of his boxes moving across the floor, and under them was a little glowing stain, with two hands sticking out. Eventually a whole body had emerged and kenny was in shock. Kenny has seen the ghost that haunts his new home. He realizes that this boy was a black slave, and trys to talk with him, he only disapeers though. So the next day kenny went to the historian in the library and got information on his home. He finds out that there were slaves once living in his home. The next night he sees the ghost again, but this time when he goes back to go to his bed, its not his bed...or his room. He had traveled back in time to the time of the boy...Caleb. He ran outside saw the new world, and was amazed, nothing was the same, but yet everything was the same (if that makes any sense to you). He reaches in his pocket for his dodgers key chain closes his eyes and he is back in his time. Caleb finds out about this, and asks Kenny to help him find how he died...find his murderer!

Summary: my favorite book
Review: This book is one of my favorites. I read it when i was in 5th grade. Its a very suspencful book with a lot of twists and turns. The author chose a very good set of caracters. What made this book so exiting was that it was very sucpencful and there is no way that you can put the book down. The vocabulary is not too hard so you can focus on reading the book and not worry about vocbulary. This is one of the best books I have read!

Summary: Simply the best
Review: This book is surely one of Avi`s BEST. It is a story of a boy that moves to Providence,RI They move to a well over a hundred year old house. Kenny the (main character) discovers small rooms connecting to his room and soon learns that slaves once lived in them in the 1800`s, then he discovers a rather large red stain in the wooden floor, then he discovers something rather creepy about it and let`s say meets a rather friendly guest one night in the small room and something shocking then happens to Kenny goes back in his room after chatting with his guest, and the rest I may not tell you for you have to dscover it for yourself and I, eleven find it simply the BEST
