7th heaven kids

Mary wants a tatto for her basketball team and she hopes her parents will say yes. Lucy, who is only a young girl, wants a boyfriend and as her first crush that her parents help it her with. Silmon , ten, wants a dog and his dad thinks he is too young. Ruth, six, is starting kindergarden and is scard and wants to stay home with her mom. So all kids are hoping for a good school year. I like this book much more then Marys story and its a great family book !

A Heavenly Seven

What do you get with a reverend, a house wife, 5 kids, and a dog? A heavenly 7 that make up 7th Heaven. The Camdens are just your average family. They go through everyday problems and solve them with laughs and cries. Nobody's Perfect by Amanda Christie, begins with Matt, the oldest child, who has a date for church, Tia; Simon's trying to use his super-human mental powers to become invisible; Lucy decides she's going to try out for the cheerleading squad; Mary is totally against Lucy; Annie, the mom, thinks that her and Eric's relationship has gotten boring; Eric, the reverend, has something up his sleeve; and finally Ruthie, the youngest, knows everything that is happening with the family. I feel this book is for anyone 10 and above. I liked the book since that it comes from my favorite TV show. It shows that everyone in life has problems and they can be solved. The Camdens aren't the perfect family, in fact, they are far from that. Not only will the book bring smiles, tears, laughs, and dreams, but the TV show will also. It relates to life so well that you'll know what the characters are going through. It's a family from the 90's. I love it because the characters go through the same problems we all do and the way they solve them is fascinating. Plus that fact that they're 7 kids in the family and they are all different ages makes it even more exciting. So many things happen that it'll keep you reading and watching. Turn on the WB and watch this family drama every Sunday and Monday night. These 7 will turn your TV into heaven.

Good but not as funny as it could be

It was good but not as good as I thought it would be. The reason I don't think it was as good as I wanted it to be is because it was not very funny and I like funny books. My favorite character was Lucy and I liked how Matt helped her to cheerlead. I did not like that Mary was not very supportive. I also liked the subject with Tia. 7th Heaven is my favorite TV show.

Excellent. Very much like the show. Superb.

I really loved this book. I was afraid it would be really far fetched from the tv series, but took a chance on buying it anyways. I am really glad I did. It concentrates on the whole family and not just one character, which is refreshing. I hope they will release more books on this fabulous tv show. The book brings you right into the Camden household. If you like the show, you'll love the book.
