Wings of Fire by Tui T. Sutherland

Nicholas and Vincent recommend...

Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto

"Naruto is a book about a boy who fights and trains to become a great ninja and leader of the village. He goes through many obstacles on the way. I like Naruto because it has many different characters and different villains. The backstory of Naruto really adds to the story. If you like fighting and story, you will like this book series." -Nick 

"Naruto is a book that is funny and cool. I want you to read it because it might help you because he was lonely because something bad was inside him, and nobody really liked him."
