 Shelbys greatly written book review
First her mother and now her brother! It all started when Mahalia Moon aka: Haley Moon wakes up and sees her mother sobbing over a dreadfully burnt cake. Unfortunately the sobbing never stopped so Mrs. Moon put herself in a hospital, which then leaves Haley all alone with her big brother Otis and the Browns to look after them. A Piece Of Heaven written by: Sharon Denis Wyeth is about Haley Moon taking part in a clean up job for a music teacher named Jackson. Haley has to use her robust muscles to clean up all of Jacksons possessions for a Barbeque that he is having for his daughter Brielle as a welcome home party. Haley wants it to be extra perfect so she has to work tremendously hard within her 2-week period. One day when Haley gets home from work she sees a stunning blue dress so she asked Otis where. He got it he replies, " The thrift shop that Reggie and I work at" Sorry to say a couple of days later Otis and Reggie get sent to jail for stealing. That leaves Haley all by her self in her apartment. One morning Haley gets home from the Browns and sees some strange women sitting on her couch, it was social services. They take Haley to a shelter with other kids that get taken from their parents but Haley dislikes the other children. Haley will stay there until her mom gets out from the hospital. One afternoon Haley discovers a piece of heaven within her paintings on rocks and accomplishes her dream: of being an artist. Subsequent to all of the obstacles that Haley faces in life she manages to keep her goals and maintain her persistence. This is a great realistic fiction novel; I would recommend this book from anyone of the ages 10- 14. I would rate this book off the charts great Im truly surprised that it didnt get a Newbery Honor award. When will her mom ever get out? Youll have to read to find out!

Marks Review of A Piece of Heaven by Sharon Dennis Wyeth
This book was awesome. I just met the writer at my school, Trevor Day School. Well, now Ill tell you about the book. When Mahalia "Haley" Moon turns 13-years old, her mother gets a nervous breakdown. Haleys mother goes to the hospital while Otis, her brother, takes care of Haley. Mahalia then gets a job for Mr. Jackson. He gives Haley confidence and offers a beautiful friendship to Haley. Then Otis gets arrested, and Terry, a social worker, takes Haley to a foster home. She learns new things, and still is in touch with her mother.

Review for A Piece of Heaven
I really enjoyed this book. I loved all the characters, especially Jackson. He seemed like a realy friendly guy, he would be one of those teachers that you would never forget in real life. The other Thing that stuck to me was the relationship between Otis and Haley. They reminded me of my sister and me. We hit and fight with each other. I thought that was really great, and funny too.
