Book Report

Your Name: //Taylor//

Title of Book: //__Jinx on the Divide__//

Author: //Elisabeth Kay//

Why did you choose to read this book?: //I chose this book because it looked very interesting. When I read the back of the book it talked about a magical box which is able to destroy worlds. It also talked about mythical creatures. That sort of stuff is interesting and exciting to me.//

Theme (Main Idea of the Book): //The main idea in this book is to be careful of what you are dealing with. Felix was just saying spells, he knew how but he ended up sending snagglefangs during the day when they come at night. Rhino was doing so many things that could destroy stuff just because he was handed it. That is why I think that is the moral of the story.//

Setting (Time and Place): //This book is taken place in a place called the Divide.//

Plot (What Happens): Well in the story Rhino goes to the Divide and he gets on a boat, he was scared because they could kill him. To save his self he's pretends like he is a scientist. But the bad thing is the Brandee is looking for a scientist to make him a human form not a brandee form. But since Rhino is not a scientist he is in trouble. So he needs Felix and Betony to save him. That is one of the main parts in the story describing the story.

Characters: //The characters in this book are Felix is a human boy, Betony is a girl elf, the Brandee is a djinn, Fuzzy and Ironclaw are brazzles (griffins) Rhino is a human boy//

Fictional books always have main characters. Describe one main character in this book in detail. How did he/she look? What age was he/she? What was his/her personality like? What was the importance of this character to the story? Did you like this character? Why or Why not? //The character I will describe is Betony. She is a female elf. She has yellow hair. She always has a green hat, maybe symbolizing that she is an elf. I would catergorize her personality traits as intelligent as in always knowing spells and how to get out of situations. The importance of this character is extremely important because one Felix would have probaly died or got in big trouble because troughout the book she had told him either to not do something or to change his thinking. Another reason is Felix would had been lonely throughout the book because she was like his sidekick. If she was not in the book it would had all go different with Felix. I like the way Elisabeth Kay used her in the book, she fits right in and was extremely smart.//

Main Events: //Some main events in this book were when Rhino travels to the Divide and is captured. Another is when Felix and Betony get trapped in a lamp. More are when Fuzzy runs away from home and when she got found snagglefangs almost killed them. The last one was when Rhino almost destroyed both worlds with the Jinx box.//

Problem/Conflict: The problems in this story are when Rhino almost destroyed both worlds and when the snagglefangs attacked.

How did the story make you feel? This story made me feel excited with all the action and magic and also sad with all the deaths and drama.

What new things did you learn from this book? New things I learned in this book were the fact that science is better then magic. Which is in the book.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? I would recommend this book because it has many qualities like action, magic and even drama. If a book is not exciting then it is not a good book in my opinion.

Conclusion: All in all, I think this is a great book for kids my age. But I do recommend reading the first two books before this book. But considering that I hope you liked my book report.
