The 6 books I read for the challenge were:
1. The Higher Power of LuckyIt's hard to pick one I liked the best. I liked The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler the least, but it was still good. The slight negative feelings I have are probably because of the movie. Trust me - read the book and DO NOT watch the movie.by Susan Patron
2. The Westing Game
3. The Bridge to Terabithia
4. The Door in the Wall
5. The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E Frankweiler
6. A Wrinkle in Time

Haven't read any of these except "Bridge to Terabithia". And loved that one...
I just finished posting reviews for "Books to Movies challenge"
The Mixed Up Files was your least favorite?! I love that one. I haven't seen the movie -- but thanks for the warning!
Anonymous, I wish you would have left your blog address so I could drop by for a visit. Would love to see what books you read for the Book to Movie Challenge.
Halie, I liked Mixed Up Files well enough to want more and so I watched the video. That was a big mistake! You can read my review of the book HERE.
I've read all but the first, and loved them all, especially A Wrinkle in Time. I have not seen the movie for Mixed Up, and I probably won't, so I don't mess up my good memories of the book.
Aah... that anon was me (formally know as Fleiger). Must have been some problem in Blogger.
You can check my blog @ lazyhabits.wordpress.com for the book reviews.
I'd say this was a successful challenge if you have a difficult time deciding which one you liked best! I remember the kids reading The Mixed Up Files, but I've never read it...maybe it's time.
The least? the least? Oh no! that movie must be AWFUL.
Fun challenge though!
I've read half of those and loved them all (Terabithia, Frankweiler and Wrinkle). The Higher Power of Lucky is one of the few Newbery books I just couldn't get into, so I took it back to the library. I'll try it again, some day, though. It was probably my mood.
Congratulations on finishing! And look at your blog, all decorated for Christmas!
Hey, did your phone ever arrive? I've been wondering about that. I hope it got there ok.
