The View From the Cherry Tree

Summary: A Thriller
Review: "The View from the Cherry Tree" was a good book. If I were to rate it on a scale of 1-10 I would say 8 because it actually was entertaining, but I am not a reading fan. I liked the book because it could actually happen in real life, and I seem to like murder mystery books. The thing that bothered me in the book though was the fact that the beginning moved to slowly and I just don't like to read. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

Summary: Stay with it and the thrills will come
Review: "The View from the Cherry Tree" may seem a bit dated in a few of its inessential details now, and it begins slowly, with characters that aren't especially appealing. However, it manages to build into a heart-pounding thriller by the end. Kids will enjoy the secrecy of the cherry tree perch, and will identify with not being listened to by adults.

Summary: The View From the Cherry Tree
Review: Boy o, boy would you ever see the day when you witnessed your neighbor get assassinated, and see it from a little perch in a cherry tree in front of your own eyes? Well Rob Mallory has and everyone he manages to tell is too busy to listens to him except one person the murder. As Rob see more and more of the murder he gets an ideal that he just made a new friend. When you start to read this realistic book The View From the Cherry Tree you will know something more surprising is going to happen, his older sister Darcy is going to have a wedding. Wow, now to top that off with what he just saw, that's gong to be tough.
Now although Willo Davis Roberts is not a very well known author, but she as written a lot of good books like Nightmare; What Could Go Wrong; and Don't Hurt Laurie. Willo seems to connect with his readers by getting them to wonder what is going to happen, or give them some sort of suspense in the book. I think the weak points are when the book just sometimes has one thing and the other part doesn't go along with the story. But however The View From the Cherry Tree is a Mystery book I would recommend this book to all ages because it has a lot of strong points like a few sad moments, happy moments, and just weird moments that will just make you cry, laugh, and say eww. It also has a lot of details like S.O.B crouched at the end of the Limb, his tail, twitching then still. The muscles, bunched under the black pelt as he prepared to attack Miss Calloway's curtains. Many people who read this book may not like it because it doesn't catch their interest but I encourage you to read on because at some point of the story it will just grab you and say keep reading. But as you know The View From the Cherry Tree did not win a Newberry Medal, it is on my favorite Mystery book. This book is filled with a lot of surprises. So what will you do when you have witness your neighbors murder?

Summary: The View from the Cherry Tree
Review: I first read this book many many years ago, in 5th grade. I loved it then, and I still love it today. I would recommend it to any child, as long as they can handle murder and some language. The reason why I started think about this book again is that it is actually #97 on The 100 Most Frequently Challenged Books of 1990-2000 at the American Library Association's website. I am guessing that it is challenged for the murder and language, which shows that some may have troubles with the content. My little brother, who is now in 5th grade has just started it and really enjoys it too. So if you feel like you can handle it, this is an AMAZING book that is well worth your time!

Summary: Stupid book
Review: I love animals, and I have no clue why they named that cat what they did (it's a really nasty name). Also, it was boring and stupid and I put it down all the time.

Review: I think that the View From the Cherry Tree was an excellent book. I would reccommend this book to anyone that likes suspenseful books. This one was very suspenseful! Right now, Rob's house is a very hectic place. His sister Darcy is getting married soon. There's lots of planning to do. No one cares about Rob right now; there's no time. So when Rob witnesses a murder, no one listens. they think it's a freak accident that Mrs. Calloway died, but Rob knows that she was murdered. Then, suddenly, somebody is trying to kill Rob. Was it because they knew he saw the murder? Rob doesn't know. Will he ever find out who the real murderer is before he, himself dies? Find out after reading this fantastic book!
