White Jade Tiger Rocks

This is the best book ever. I recommend it for everybody who like mysteries, adventures, and to read this book you have to be a really smart reader. (So says a ten yr. old who read it as a novel study.)

It's one of the best!!!

my teacher made me read this one, what i found was that the book was amazing! I loved the time travel, a heroine who know how to defend herself, who is independent, she is normal and I could really relate to her. The plot is wonderful, though I had to read it twice to really get it througholy. 4 years after I read it, I read it again! I fell in love with it!
