            Tying science fiction, historical references, and religion into a thriller, writer Dan Brown creates a invigorating and page turning novel. Browns novel, Angels and Demons, is no best seller by mistake. Protagonist Robert Langdon, a Professor of Religious Iconology at Harvard University, is something of a problem-solving marvel.

Let Al Capone Do Your Shirts

By Jordan D.

I'm reviewing Al Capone Does My Shirts by: Gennifer Choldenko who is also the author of Notes From A Liar And Her Dog. This book is more of a adventure/comedy book. It has a little bit of everything in it. It has adventure, comedy, sorrow, and even a little horror. It is about a boy named Moose Flanagan who lives on Alcatraz Island. He lives there because his father works in the prison. His father is a maintenance man/guard. This book is about his adventures on the island, the weird, unique, and interesting things he encounters, and the struggles he has living on an island right next to one of the worst prisons in America. He has to deal with being away from his friends and family on the mainland, trying to find something interesting to do, not being able to spend time with his father, trying to stay out of trouble on the island, etc. Moose is a very curious boy and sometimes his curiosity gets the best of him.
