I like this book because the book is about wolves. It shows facts and X-ray vision. The book has a picture of a wolf trap and a map where some wolves live.

Most people stop reading fairy tales at a certain age, like Cinderella, Little Red riding Hood, or Jack and the Beanstalk. But someday you might go back to reading fantasy like Harry Potter, Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, or the Twilight series. I am here to give you a report on the book Breaking Dawn by, Stephenie Meyer, I would give this book a five star rating ***** and you are going to see why…

Bella’s day starts off ordinary, except for the part that she knew she was going to marry a vampire. Her biggest wish in life was to be a vampire so she could have Edward forever. The day of her wedding came around very quick. Of course Alice was the one to plan the wedding and for once Bella loved her work. The wedding was beautiful and was full of flowers. It lasted a long time and everyone loved it. After the wedding Edward surprised Bella with an amazing honeymoon, and they went to an island close to Rio. After a few weeks there, Bella finds out she is going to have a child, a vampire child. At first they think the child is completely vampire, and this worries them because a complete vampire child must be destroyed. The reason for that is, a few hundred years ago the Voltierie, a very big group of vampires, set out to destroy all vampire children. The bad thing was the vampire children would eat anyone in their sight. But they soon find that their daughter is not all vampire but she is half, and can still kill Bella. So they fly back home and do their best to save Bella but end up turning her into a vampire. After saving Bella they do everything to save their daughter, but something unexpected comes up and it has something to do with a very big fight and the Voltierie. So what happens to Bella, Edward, and their daughter … do they survive, and what happens if they do?
