Summary: this book was great
Review: I read the first orphan train book in school to years ago and I loved it from then on I read all of them. This one by far is the best it is full of mystery and suspense and you should defintly buy it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not Much of a Secret
Review: In "Keeping Secrets", the Wakefield twins learn a secret new language called Ithig, which is similar to pig Latin, except the word "ithig" is placed between the syllables of each word, lithigike thithigis. It sounds pretty complicated, but Elizabeth and Jessica pick up on it within minutes--even featherbrained Jessica.

Elizabeth and Jessica promise to keep it a secret with their father as a fun game, but their loyalty is tried when the girls' best friends (Amy Sutton and Lila Fowler) demand to know their secret or else. The reaction to the twins' secrecy is a little over dramatic and immature, but then again this is middle school.

Lila even refuses to invite the twins to a big star-studded party unless they tell her everything. Jessica, of course, is the first to break her promise. Soon everybody at Sweet Valley Middle School starts talking "Ithig", mainly as a way to confuse their new teacher Ms. McDonald.

"Keeping Secrets" certainly isn't the best Sweet Valley Twins book I've read so far, but if you're into secret languages, you might like this one.

Summary: Sweet Valley Twins
Review: It looks like two books with the same title are being reviewed here, "The Orphan Train" and "Sweet Valley Twins." I'm going to review the Sweet Valley Twins book. In this story, Jessica and Elizabeth learn an artificial code language called "ithig." They promise to keep it a secret and not teach it to anyone, but they eventually bend and teach the whole school. Now the whole school knows the "ithig" language, and they plan to play a trick on a new teacher. And as always, Elizabeth comes to the rescue. I think it's a fun book to read, but it's not one of the best in the Sweet Valley Twins series. The story isn't very realistic, and the kids seem to catch on to the new language much too quickly. But it's fun, so I'll give it 3 stars.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Will they break their promise??
Review: It seems the Orphan Train shares alot of titles with Sweet Valley Twins!!!LOL.I am reviewing Sweet Valley..Jessica and Elizabeth,twins,learn a secret language called Ithig.Their dad has taught it to them,as something he can share with his special twin daughters.They promise not to teach the language to anyone,but this makes their friends at school very cross!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: it was the saddest book in the series!
Review: it was so sad! peggy has to help her new friend,violet, deliver messages and they have lots of adventures,but thats not the sad part.the author kills off my favorite character! (don't worry-i won't give it away) and the character is so brave and probably would have done great things.the person was sensitive,nice,and loved their family.i think you definetly have to read this,but be prepared! your heart will break in two when the character says his/her last goodbye.

Rating: 3 stars
