An adventurous, lively book that will keep you reading!

Matilda is a lovely, sharp and wily character. She enjoys reading and is really smart. Matilda’s parents are not as pleasant  and bright as there daughter. They always leave Matilda home alone even at the age of 3 this is because her dad goes to work, her mum goes to bingo and her brother goes to baseball practice.

Road Dahl was going to make Matilda a wicked child and her parents really nice, but decided to make Matilda the smart powerful one  and her parents the horrible, wicked ones. I agree with Road Dahl because Matilda is a lovely character and it wouldn’t be the same if she was mean and horrible.

The theme of this book is friendship and perseverance, because Matilda perseveres with Mrs Trenchball always on her case. Matilda makes lots of new friends at her New school.Miss Trenchball reminds me of  Mrs Twit. I recommend  this book to anyone who loves adventures and lively mysterious books.

Its a hilarious story with odd characters and great jokes to keep you going!

A young boy named Spike, who loves all things about radio, had started up a radio station in his garden shed with his two friends Artie and Holly. Everything was going well for them until spikes grandad Ray asked to join the show!

Christian O’Connell added  very intreresting and funny characters to his book, even though they are weird they still fit into the real world setting. An example of a funny character is the head teacher with a face like a fish, and the grandad who believes he is the best at everything… But he really isn’t! Characters like this make very funny and entertaining scenes.

The themes of this book is about family and acceptance, because spike had to learn  to help his grandad and the rest of his family.

I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys hilarious books with fun characters! I think that the first book was better that this one but they are both still very good!

This book is about a  cryptozoologist called Sammy and he is determined to find out why the mysterious creature has come and what is he going to do.

In a panda enclosure. its just the start of something weird there’s more to come .  Sammy a was shocked with some help off Sammy friends Donny and Red after discovering and going on a trip they finnaly  find out in 7 days what is inside the egg .

I enjoyed reading this book a lot because I like reading books that involve mysterious problems. The twists are very unexpected at time and very weird. My favourite character is Red because she’s powerful and she has telekenesis.

I recommend this book to people who like books with mysterys in it if you like books like this you  will enjoy this.

This is a book about a boy called Joe. who has a dad that is very rich. For his birthday he got £1.000.000 for his birthday, he has loads of trainers and gets £100.000 for pocket money every week. I forgot to say he has a race track in his garden. But one thing Joe has no friends because he told everyone his dad makes money out of loo rolls! My favourite character is Bob because he is fat and funny. He is fat and funny because he wore his pants and a vest is the cross school run and he is smaller compaired to the other kids.

I recommend this book to people that like humorous stories.

An ingenious, fast paced adventure book filled with MI6 action.

Fourteen year old Alex Rider  is having trouble keeping himself out of MI6 life. He lives with his carer Jack Starbright after his parents died in a fatal plane crash….Well at least that’s  what he thinks!!This book is where fourteen year old Alex Rider has just ninety minutes to save the world!

In my opinion if you like action packed books this is your book, it has a surprise around every corner of the page.

I would definitely recommend this book to people who like books filled with action and like books about spies. This is your book!!!

An emotional but entertaining book about how to treat others. Told from the people around August point of view.

A young ten year old boy; August Pullman, has never been to school due to a terrible face abnormality. Now he’s finally going to a real school, can he prove to everyone inside he’s just an ordinary child? Joining school in 5th grade, students and teachers are surprised when they see Augusts face,  there  questions and mean names for August  don’t go unnoticed. though others don’t know it august is funny, friendly, trustworthy, kind boy.

This book has some funny aspects such as the principles name; Mr. Tushman, and Mr and Mrs Pullmans collage tutor; Mrs Butt. It is quite sad when August describes his face.

The themes of Wonder are friendship and courage. I recommend this book for people who like funny but touching stories.

An intriguing scrap book, with extracts from story’s  characters and ‘ behind the scene’ notes

This book has extracts of dialog and details from nearly every story Roald Dahl has written including characters and their back story’s. My favorite extract is about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I like it because it says in his first draft it was going to be written as a diary! Also, in the first draft all of the characters where different! They where; Augustus Pottle, Miranda Grape and Violet Strabmist.

Another bit I enjoyed was about Matilda, a young inelegant child with horrible parents. Although,  first of all Roald was thinking about making Matilda the mean one and her parents the nice ones.  I would defiantly recommend this book to lovers of Roald Dahl and David Walliams, as they both have similar styles of writing.

Also I really like the illustrations in the book done by Quentin Blake, I like them because you can reconise their personality’s just by looking at them!

A comical funny and cringy  book!

Once Upon A Dork is such an amusing and cringy  book for example when she meets a guy she is very awkward around him.  I like the fact that it is in a diary because it makes it more exciting and it makes it easier to read. It’s easy to read and it is entertaining on each page . The illustrations are amazing and very detailed. It’s written in first person .

The main character is Nicky Maxwel , she has a very embarrassing life. Her enemy knocks her out with a ball . Nicky starts imagining that she is in a princess fairy land !

This book is good for people who like Diary of the Wimpy kid. This book is suitable for age 7-12. I really recommend this book as it is very entertaining and dramatic.

This book is just a Bible but in a comic book style. although it is based on real life it also has some made up creatures in it . For example in Jonah and the whale it has a sea monster in it!

I think this book is much more  interesting than the normal Bible , because all of it is action and the pages are full of pictures. This  book will sure keep you entertained with all of the action .

I recommend this book to people who want to learn about Christianity in a  fun way
