■ A SHORT MONSOON DIARY.
■AUTHOR-RUSKIN BOND.
The author minutely observes the changes in the nature.As a reader I could also imagine and appreciate the changes.Nature silently gives us indications about the arrival of monsoon, summers or winters.The movement of birds, insects and even plants has been described so interestingly that the nature seems enchanting and magical.As a reader one is fascinated by the natural beauty of the hills.The melancholy of the mist, drumming on the roof by the downpour, hailstorm and black clouds squatted over Mussoorie and lastly a rainbow forming just gives a new perspective to weather.
My ratings-4.80/5

THE ENORMOUS PEARL HEIST
THE STORY GRIPS the readers right from the start. The secret letter makes the reader enough curious to know what is store in next ? The Professor is an interesting character and moves the plot further. The funny situations tickle the readers and reveals the other side of the characters.The author has again created curiosity at the end when the oyster is being carried to another place for safety reasons. I recommend this series not only for children but adults can also enjoy reading it.The author has successfully created suspense, drama, wit, humour, thrill in the story. MY RATING:- 4.75/5

THE TASTES OF THE PLANETS(BALU BALDAUF SERIES #4)
Authoress : RUTHZ S.B
PAGES: 16
MY RATINGS: 3.5/5
IT is the most difficult task to make the kids eat healthy food.I really appreciate Ruthz's imagination of creating a story involving planets.She has weaved the story in a manner that kids can learn different tastes, names of different planets, names of fruits and vegetables.The book lets the child explore many things at one time.
However, I really missed some planets like Earth and Mercury.

Two different people from two different worlds yet they find love, friendship, compassion for eachother.Durjoy Datta has very minutely described the two characters and while reading one knows their personality well.Every reader just waits for the moment when Avani first time faces Devrat.Durjoy Datta really knows the art of making readers cry and feel the pain of Avani.The end of the novel is a mixture of pain, sorrow, sympathy, shock and at last the moments of happiness, joy and smiles.
