My Little Pony Friendship is Magic Volume 8

I, not too long ago, finished the book My Little Pony Friendship is Magic book by Hasbro. There are three stories to this book. Starting off with the first one, the Main 6 are at the wrestling match of the Mystery Mare, located in Canterlot. While Rarity is going to the bathroom, she finds her friend Cheerilee from Ponyville. Cheerilee explains that her sister sent her tickets to the match and that the Mystery Mare is actually her twin sister, Cherry Blossom. Cheerilee also explains that she and her sister haven't talked in ages and has no idea how to approach her. Rarity then comes up with an idea to have Cheerilee, Cherry Blossom, herself, and her friends to have tea together. Later, they have tea before Cheerilee enters the room. The two sisters start and argument in which Cheerilee storms out of the building. While Cherry Blossom is behind her trying to apologize for the words said, she trips on a ledge and injures her leg.
At the hospital, Cherry finds out that she had sprained her leg and is unable to participate in the wrestling championship in three days. Cherry pleads with Cheerilee for her to take place as the Mystery Mare in order to keep her title. Cheerilee runs out of the hospital room and starts to cry in the hallway. Rarity comforts Cheerilee and explains that she should wrestle for her sister. Cheerilee agrees and they head off to the gym. Cherry, Rarity, and Cloverleaf accompany her as she is learning the basics. Cheerilee and her training partner, Sneaky Pete, practice taking each other down. Rarity carries Cheerilee home while Cheerilee explains the differences between her and Cherry.
The next day, they all go to the gym without Cloverleaf and go over even more moves. During this, they are interrupted by "Iron Hock" who confronts Cheerilee about lacking her usual confidence. After the Iron Hock leaves, Cheerilee starts to freak out and worries that she may be in trouble. Time skips to the night before the match and Cheerilee starts to regret her choice of filling in for her sister. She is then bombarded by the Mystery Mare's fans who are excited to see her in the match. Rarity stands in the crowd of fillies and whispers words of encouragement. Cheerilee runs off to do her match, filled with confidence.

His name is Kevin but people called him Kev for short. And he noticed that he was suddenly in love with this girl named Tina.

Then Greg prayed that Mr. Jefferson would forget that he owes him money and that he will beat a level in this game. Now it was Greg's Birthday and his mom asked him to take his time with the cards and say thank you to the people who gave him the card.

Isle of the Lost: Janelle Mixner

       The book I read is called the Isle of the Lost. This is about the Disney villains being out in a dome with no magic. The four main characters are Mal (daughter of Maleficent), Evie (daughter of the Evil Queen), Carlos (son of Cruella de Ville), and Jay (son of Jafar). Every villain thknks there is no magic until at Carlos's party, he tries out his invention. It cuts a hole in the dome! Once this happened, Maleficent's bird friend, Diablo, comes back to her and says that her Dragon Eye staff has been unfrozen. Maleficent wants Mal to go retrieve it for her. Maleficent always says that Mal is a disappointment so Mal thinks that if she gets the staff, her mother won't think of her as a disappointment. Mal gets Evie, Carlos, and Jay to help her find it. Once they get into the room where the staff is, Mal didn't want Evie to touch it because she would fall asleep for one-thousand years. So instead, Mal touched it. She is immune to the sleep spell because she is part dragon. After she touches it, it disappears. When Mal returns home, she sees that the Dragon Eye staff is in her mothers hands. She got the staff because of Diablo because Diablo followed them. Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Cruella de Ville, and Jafar are all disappointed. Meanwhile, down at Auradon, prince Ben is will be becoming King soon. Before he becomes King, he runs off to find his parents because he looked up at the Isle of the Lost and wonders. There are probably kids my age up there. How do they survive? How does it feel being trapped in a dome with no magic at all?

                                                                         Heaven is for real book blog by: Teighan A. Jeremy
                  In "Heaven is for Real" there are 163 pages, the authors name is Todd Burpo. So the story is about a boy named Colton who went to heaven and met God  and he tells his father what he sees and his father ask him a lot of questions about heaven. Colton sees people that are old and living and doesn't recognize them because everybody in heaven is young in very happy and loyal.
Image result for five star rating

        I think this is a good book because it is very factual about what it's gonna be in the after life and there are bumps in the road but the Burpo's family knows how  to handle the things.
