Summary: A Poem By a Student at South Korea
Comment: Hi! I had to read this book for school because of this thing called a reading log, and I happened to write a poem about it. Hope you enjoy!
Title: The Adventures of Perloo
Perloo the Montmer stays snug in his bed,
When suddenly, a visitor comes; cold and unfed
Her name is Lucabara, and she has news to say,
While lazy Perloo just wants to get away.
"You are the new Granter," Perloo is told,
But he can't believe it, he tries to stay bold.
Unwilling, he objects- Lucabara is surprised,
"I don't want to be Granter, it is my mind."
Back at Central Tribe Burrow, three Montmers are plotting,
All of them want to be Granter, but it's just not working.
Their names are Berwig, Gumpel, and Senyous,
All of them who are mean, sly, and jealous.
But finally Berwig becomes the beloved Granter,
And lies that innocent Perloo is a mere traitor.
And so Perloo has to start his incredible journey,
With nothing to eat; all tired and hungry.
With Lucabara, he hops into the storm,
While nothing else is to be seen- not even a worm.
Later on, they encounter the Felbarts,
The Montmers' true enemies, all with cold hearts.
Each group's armies are ready to fight,
Staring into eachother's eyes, trying to give fright.
However, Perloo miraculously saves the day,
Wnat to know how? Then read this book today!
-The End-
Avi is a truly wonderful author. I liked the way he used his characters throughout the book, who each had a different personality. I additionally liked the way how Perloo changed from the beginning to the end. I would recommend this book to anyone who merely loves reading. However, I should say that the ending was sort of lame. But, it still was a good story.
Rating: 5
Summary: Perloo is the greatest and boldest
Comment: In perloo the bold This little bunny named perloo has to step up and try not to be so passive. Perloo wasa never that bold or agressive and in this book he is not the only one who learns a life lesson. The people who read Perloo the bold learn a lesson that I know I will never forget. We learn that you should not be so passive because if you are good things in life will just pass you by.

Summary: He's really not THAT bold...
Comment: Montmers are creatures that resemble rabbits walking on their hind legs. Perloo, is one such Montmer. While he would rather stay in his den reading, Lucabara, the monarch's aide calls upon him to let him know that he has been named the new Granter and ruler of all of the Montmers. Unfortunately, Berwig the Big, rightful heir to the throne is not pleased and so accuses Perloo of murdering the previous Granter. Forced to flee, Perloo and Lucabara find solace in the arms of their enemies...
Perloo stands up for himself and could even serve as a role model. He makes some very good decisions. The book had quite a bit of adventure and humor. The pace was a little slow, but I still kept turning the pages. There are a lot of political and anti-war undertones that may not be picked up by less adept readers, but it is entertaining on a surface level.
Why 4 stars?:
Appropriate for 5th graders and older, Perloo is an interesting, and, at times, exciting story. The political allegories are woven in expertly by Avi. But, the question is, is the reading level appropriately matched with content? This is why it had to have a star taken off. Still, it is a good addition to any child's library and works well for discussions.
