This was amazing!...

I like this book because it show how people can mistreatsomeone cause of their height and color.But it also show as much kindness as posible to make friends and shows just because someone is new never mistreat them for something they aren't or you think they are give them a chance.And treat people with the highest respect.And never lie or misjudge them because most of the time you can tell so bekind.

An Alien Spring

I liked this book, because there were a lot of the adventures and real life. This book was pretty good, but I like romance stories better than mystery. I think this book is more for teenagers, because the characters are young students.This book was about two boys. The main characters were Edward and Mark. Edward was a new student in school and no one like him, because he was strange.But Mark was different, he was trying to make friendship with Edward, because he knew how it is like to be alone.I recomend this book for kids who like adventures and mystery.

An Anlien Spring

I thought the novel "An Alien Spring" was good. We had read this book in reading class. Was fun to read this novel, many mystics and secrets, many young characters. I think this book is really interesting, for all my classmates. I like this novel, because it is not so long. Many events were about unnatural. I think many students should learn something from this novel. Because many people make mistakes, and many people just can't understand another people. This story is like for example, about peoples' differences and about peoples' comprehension. Because in this story is one guy, named Edward, who just moved in the new Town Marnard. But he is absolutely different to another student, and in this story is descriptions, how one boy named Mark wanted to make introduction with Edward, when many peoples thought he is Alien. Because he didn't talked with anybody and he was looked very different and strange. All towns people were afraid him, even teachers seemed afraid. Their eyes were full of fear. He is really alien?

An Alien Spring

I liked this book, because there were many adventure and story about poor guy. I was a little bit sad abuot guy who was alone in this world just with his brother who could not talk. Like many things happene in our life and this boy had to feel many sad and not right things. I think that sometimes people have to think better about their opinion and how they feel about person. You can not be sure if you do not know really what happened and whose fault there was. Everyday happene many things with not guilty poeple and other think that it is their fault. The same happened with that guy who was alone in this world. Poeple thought that he was the alien and he was the virus, but they were not right. They made just bad feelings for that boy. He became just more afraid and does not trust himself. I felt bad when i read that book, because it was pretty sad story. I liked one the boy named Mark, becasue he was kind and pleasure. Just Mark helped for the Edward and just he understood his problems. He was friendly with him not like others. People began sick in the Marnards town and everybody thought it was Edward's and his brother's fault. Only Mark and his family wanted to help for Edward and his brother. They knew that those boys were just afraid and not guilty. After few days people were feeling better and virus continued just three days. So they were sorry for Ed and his brother. And my opnion is that first you have to know person and then think about him is he right or wrong. You can learn many things from that book how to be right and to trust others.

An Alien Spring

I think that this book was very interesting, because it has many secrets that I wanted to know. In every chapter something really interesting happens and you really want to know what is going to happen next and you want to read this book foward. This book teach us a lot of things what is very important to understand, that we could learn from our mistakes and don't repeat them again and again. The very important life lesson that we learn from this book is that "you don't have to be rich to be happy" (Marks mother). I liked that book because, I liked the events that had happen in this story. I very wanted to know why this boy Edward couldn't talk and is he an alien or not? Every body in Marnard and in school were very afraid of Edward. I liked how the book was typed, because it was easy to read. I think that the mystery books are my favorite and I enjoyed this book very much.
