I began this blog in the fall of 2010, thinking I would read 100 books during the 2010-2011 school year and write about each one. I reached 100 books in May, but decided to just keep on reading. You can stop back any time to hear about the newest books on my list.

#51 Operation Redwood
I think it was the picture on the cover of this book that appealed to me: doesn't it look like fun? I've always wanted to try a zip line and zoom through the trees...and just look at that tree house way up in the top of the tree! So I checked out Operation Redwood.
It starts off with Julian Carter-Li sitting in his uncle's office, waiting for a ride home. You see, he was sent home from school sick, but instead of picking him up, his uncle sent him a taxi and had him delivered to the office, where he took a nap on the couch and then waited for hours. While there, Julian sees an email with his name on it, and then one calling his uncle a moron and a world-class jerk. Who could help but read that message?
And so Julian learns of the beautiful redwood grove, the girl named Robin, and the terrible crime his uncle is planning to commit. Can Julian and his friends save Big Tree?
You can learn more about this book, and the redwoods that are still growing, by going to the website: www.operationredwood.com
