Book Reviews of Ivy & Bean Break the Fossil Record (Ivy & Bean, Book 3)
Book Review: A Book About Friends
Summary: 5 Stars
The title of the book I read is Ivy and Bean Breaks the Fossil Record, Book 3. The authors are Annie Barr and Sophie Blackall. The main characters are Ivy and Bean. This book is the third chapter book about two second grade friends who are totally different. The point of the first book was don't judge a person by the way they look or dress, because you might like them and become best friends with them like Ivy and Bean.
This book starts out with Bean reading the Amazing Book of World Records, so after class Bean decides to read the book with her friends in the playground. One record was that a kid stuck 159 clothespins on his face. One of the kids came up with the idea of trying to beat the world record in the records. They all tried to break the records. Emma tried to break the record of putting 15 spoons on her face at one time. Another kid tried to eat 500 M&M candies. Bean tried to break the record of putting 257 straws in her mouth at once, but she ended up choking and spitting them all out. She then took one of her sister Nancy's fragile glass octopus sculptures and tried to sing as loud as possible to break the glass and break the world record but she could not break the glass. Finally, Ivy was talking about famous paleontologists who studied dinosaur bones, and Ivy and Bean got the idea to look for dinosaur bones so they could become the youngest paleontologists in the world. They found some bones in Bean's backyard and told a bunch of kids at school that they found dinosaur bones, but the kids didn't believe them. Bean told her dad too, but he said he didn't think they were dinosaur bones, but you never know. Suddenly, Ivy jumped up and made an announcement to all the kids about the bones. You will have to read the book to find out if they were really dinosaur bones.
I would recommend this book because it gets kids to read and learn about dinosaurs and world records. It is really funny, but read the books in order.
My favorite part of the book was that I got to learn a little about dinosarurs. I love the funny illustrations. The funniest parts of the book were when Bean keeps trying to break records but just ends up spitting out the straws. The point of this book is that it is fun to try to break world records and become famous. Even if you can have a lot of fun and learn a lot and have adventures.
