I nominated __Mr.Popper's Penguins__ because my my mom bought it for me at the Book Store, and I decided to start reading it, because I really like Penguins, and, because this book because it is a good Book that you can read within about 13 days. I also nominated this Book because it is really well written. Instead of saying "Said so, and so" the authors wrote "he trilled, reproved Mr.Popper, asked Mr.Popper, Mr.Popper exclaimed proudly, and, Mr.Popper answered." Not he said, she said, and they said all the time because that would have been kind of boring.
