5.0
1950s setting, realistic, atmospheric, with serious themes of life, death and hardship. This one starts with the POV of a loner sheriff who is morally gray, and alternates with a POV of a pre-teen boy, which Krueger writes so well. This small-town mystery story is well-written, with excellent character development and a slowly intensifying plot.

LINDSEY SAYS: I really like Nancy's neighbor's dog because it is so cute and it dresses up in fancy dog outfits.
Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss
5.0
LINDSEY says: Dr.Seuss is a really good writer because it's so funny and they should make a movie [of this book]. "I DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM." This is so funny.
