Liberty
by Kirby Larson
Liberty by Kirby Larson is a realistic fiction novel about a boy named Fish who enjoys creating his own inventions and his neighbor Olympia, who tends to mess things up a lot. But when one of his inventions leads Fish and Olympia to Liberty, a stray dog, the two work together to rescue the dog. The book takes place during World War II, and Fish’s father is out fighting in Europe. He looks up to Mr. Higgins, and creates an invention that helps Mr. Higgins’s engineers. Mr. Higgins inspires Fish to be brave, and meets many new people as he is going on to rescue Liberty the stray dog.
This is a great novel that is recommended to grades 4-7. It is very enjoyable! I would rate this book 4 out of 5 because it is a good read and was very fun to read. I believe the author wrote this book to entertain because it is a fun book to read and is very entertaining.
