Reviewed by Haiden,Year 6

Here's the blurb: I was an ordinary boy, until I visited Cirque Du Freak... until I met Madam Octa...until I came face to face with a creature of the night. That's when my life changed completely. I don't expect you to beleive me completely but everything I describe in this book is absolutely true...

The Suitcase Kid by Jacqueline Wilson

Reviewed by Shannyn, year 6.

The Suitcase Kid is about a little girl called Andy. Her parents fall out and she has to stay with one of her parents every week.This book is the winner of the Childrens Book award. The chapters are A is for is for Andy, B is for bathroom, C is for Cottage, etc. I though that the book was really good because the chapters are very cool. My favourite part is where Andy kept going to Mulberry Cottage and eating all the mulberrys. My least favourite part is when she loses her purse and gets money of a stranger, because she could have been tricked and it could of been fake. In my opinion the book is very good, and I think you should read it.

These books are very funny; also if you like Wimpy Kid books, these books are your perfect match. Its range includes: The Brilliant World Of Tom Gates, Excellent Excuses (and other good stuff), Everything’s Amazing (sort of) and Genius Ideas (mostly). All these books will have you in stitches, furthermore they make you very eager to read on.

Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets by JK Rowling

Review by Ben Hallett

The story is about our main character, Harry,  suffering from the dreaded summer holidays with the Dursleys when he arrives at Hogwarts. The heir of Slytherin, Tom Riddle tries to kill him. Read the book to find out if he survives! And to find out who Tom Riddle really is...

I really enjoyed this book because it was exciting to read and I felt nervous all the way through. My favourite character is Harry because he learns how to be a wizard. My favourite part was when Harry ventures into the Chamber Of Secrets.

For ages 9-13.

Charlotte's Web by EB White

Reviewer: Olivia-Grace Richardson

This is a story of a little girl named Fern who loves a little pig named Wilbur. Wilbur's best friend is a large, grey spider that lives in the corner of the barn where Wilbur lives. The spiders name is Charlotte and she is a very clever and wise spider. Charlotte makes Wilbur very famous.

The reason why Fern has Wilbur is because her father was going to kill him because the mother pig could not give milk to Wilbur. His mother did not want him either. Wilbur lived a pretty good life and was treated with care, love, affection and respect.

This book is brilliant and you have to read it. The cover might not look enticing, however once you start reading you can't stop!
