Summer on Wheel

Have you ever wanted to go ona bike trip and go to a future Olympic athlete's house? That is what Hector and Mando did. Hector and Mando go on a bike trip. They go to the beach while visiting all of their relative along the way. My favorite part is when Hector sneaks up to his house and I like it because it is funny when Hector stole his parent's doughnut and his mom thinks that his dad ate it. I recommend this book to any one who speaks Spanish and English because there are some Spanish words in the book. I hope you will read this book. It is funny and awesome at the same time.

SUMMER ON WHEELS Have you ever been paint- balling? Well, read about what happens to Hector and Mando. My favorite part of the book was when Hector and Mando got jumped by Mando's own cousin. I couldn't imagine getting jumped by my own cousin. I would recommend this book to people that are usually bored in the summer because it might give them some ideas. I really liked this book because Hector and Mando always got into trouble.

Can you imagine getting attacked by your cousin that doesn't recognize you? Can you imagine having a rich friend that takes you to a paintball war? This happens to the main characters Hector and Mando. It was my favorite part when they go to a paintball war. It was my favorite part because they got to fight with paintball guns. If you like fun adventure books, you'll love this book. I especially recommend this book to people that know Spanish and English because it has lots of Spanish words but it is mostly in English. It's a really good book so I hope you read it!

There were two boys that were really bored and without two pennies to go to the beach. Do you thing they can go without their parent's permission? My favorite part was that Hector and Mando finally made it the beach. The hard part is how they go to their home. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to travel to their family members and really likes going to the beach.
