Back to school
Welcome back. I hope you all had an enjoyable and relaxing summer holiday. Here is your chance to tell us what books you think we should all be reading this year. Are there any new authors that you think everyone should hear about? Is there a book that you have loved that you know other people will love too? We want to know, we need to know...
At the moment, my Top Ten essential books to read in Year Six are:
1. Dragon Keeper- Carole Wilkinson (it will make you cry!)
2. The Spook's Apprentice- Joseph Delaney
3. Mortlock- Jon Mayhew
4. Foul Play- Tom Palmer (there is a series of five of these!)
5. Hacker- Malorie Blackman
6. Out Of The Depths- Cathy Macphail (very spooky!)
7. The Brilliant World Of Tom Gates- Liz Pichon
OK, that seems to be only a top seven. Can you think of three more I could add to the list?
Could someone be incredibly clever and write a Top Ten books for Years Three, Four and Five?? It would be great to put it on the site for everyone to see.
