It's about the Rapture of the Christians and what happened to the people left behind. Some people were completely against religion and others were just clueless. There are other books after this one that go on and on about the stories of those "Left Behind." Austin, Mrs. Turner

By: Jeff Kinney	I thought the book was ok considering that it was only 217 pages. It stayed on topic and there were just enough pictures in there. The kid in there experimented with a lot of things at school, and his life was pretty pathetic. I picked the book for a couple of reasons, one of which is because the title of the book was dealing with my life. And, the other one was because the opportunity was there. I'm hoping there's another one that comes out. I'll be the first one to pick it up. I think this book is a good first book any one could read if they wanted to. Brandon, Mrs. Turner	By: Lisa Barham	Its about how this girl gets a summer job with a fashion magazine company. She's staying in New York and trying to raise money to go on a trip to Paris. It is like one of the best books if your into fashion and chick books! Addie, 8th grade
