My favourite chapters were the first 2 stories THE HITCHHIKER and THE SOUND OF MURDER. I think it is suitable for people who like horror stories.
the book i read was called street logos,by tristan manco.This book was about graffitti styles and other peoples styles of graffitti.I really liked this boook because of all the different designs, my favorites were Pez Alexone and Marc Eco. I would reccommend this to anyone who likes graffitti and people who like to draw.

This book is about eight nerve tingling stories i liked and disliked this book because i ussaly read a whole horror book where as this has eight.I think this book is suitable for people who like blood and read horror storys and if you like doing your nails and combing your hair well i dont think the book is for you
The boooks title is called Kilmarnock fc and the author is Gordon allison.The book is basically about Kilmarnock and there cup run and matches the book also tells you how they get on in there legue games.I realy like the book because I am a Kilmarnock fan.My favorite parts were reading about kilmarnock in the cup finals against rangers.I even like the normal games against celtic because that type of game could go either way.I would give this book to anyone which either like playing football or like to watch kilmarnock or anyone that is a full time kilmarnock fan.I would not recommend this book to anyone under the age of 10 because they wouldnt understand the cup runs and legue tables.
Blair - interesting comments about combing your hair and doing your nails! But what is the title of the book??
A book i have recently read is The Power of Five Evil Star.
My book was about a young boy called Matthew Freeman who is called up by a group called the Neuxus and he goes to a church trying to get a book and he is sent to Peru and he is set up and he is trying to get his friend Richard back he meets a new friend called Pedro.
My favourite scene was when Pedro used his slingshot and hit 3 police officers to save Matthew.
The book would be suitable from 10 years onwards as it is a really long book for the younger ones to read.
The book was really good it was a good storyline for a book i thought it was good that Matthew and Pedro had found Richard.

The book I read is called "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" by J.K.Rowling. The book is about a wizard boy going to a wizard school for his third year. He shortly finds out that someone who escaped from Azkaban, wizard jail, is trying to murder him. He goes through his year very aprehensive. He learns that the person to trying to kill him ishis Godfather. I liked this book because it was always making you think what's going to happen. It is really well described and thought out. Ialso liked the character Hagrid. Hagrid is the Grounds Keeper of Hogwarts and also the teacher of the subject "Wierd and Wonderful Animals" He is kind to Harry and his friends and he keeps all sorts of magical creatures. I think the book is suitable for a child aged about 7-16 years old.
My book is called Buried Alive and it is Jacqueline Wilson.At the beginning of my book two friends are going on holiday to wales.Tim and his best friend called Biscuits have some good and some not so good adventures while they are on holiday.I thought this book was really cool and fun to read.It has a very good story to it and is very interesting.Young children would enjoy this book as it has a cool story

The name of my book is Missing Girl By Sophie McKenzie.
The book is about a girl called Lauren and she is desperate to know more about her past, but when she discovers she may have been kidnapped from an American family when she was a baby. She feels like her life has just crumbled. Also Lauren runs away from her family to find out the truth, but her journey takes her into more and more danger. She then discovers that the people that abducted her will do anything to keep her silent.
I liked the book a lot as it was very interesting and exciting. My favourite part of the book was when Lauren and her friend Jam Jumped into a car asking this random woman to take them to an Adoption Agency, Lauren the realised that it’s Sonia the woman that supposedly snatched her.
The reason why I liked this part of the story as it was a frightening and it made you just as scared as the people in that part of the book were.
This book would be suitable for Teenagers as the book isn’t a children’s or an adult’s book. Also I enjoyed it so much that I say it’s suitable for people around my age group 13-16 years of age.
"Creepers" by Keith Gray
I enjoyed reading this book because it had all different kind of events,some happy some sad.It is suitable for people who like adventure stories.This book is about a girl called Susan and a boy called Jamie and they like jumping peoples backdoor fences.They have a race and whoever wins gets their own creeper trophie.
The book is called what a week to play it cool by rosie rushton my book was about a girl called Holly who has to convince her boyfriend paul that there right for each other.And get her and paul to a music festival without her parents finding out.And from her parents finding out and also staying friends with tansy. I liked the book because it was very open and it gives you lots of information about the characters and the author has made made it sound realistic.My favourite character is Tansy because she gives good advice to andy about his mum and dad. I think the book is suitable for any age because theres nothing bad about it and i also think that when people read it they will pass it to friends who like a good story.
The Book I Have Read Is Called 'Saving Francesca' By Melina Marchetta.
The Book Is About How Francesca's Family Is Falling Apart Whilst She Is Falling In Love With A Boy From Her School. This Novel Contain The Days Of Francesca's Life Including Partys And School Days. Francesca Falls In Love With This Boy after A Party And They Kiss. At The Same Time Her Family At Home Is Drifting Away, Her Mum Is Ill And Francesca Doesn't Know The Cause.
I Thought This Book Was Quite Good As I Could Relate To It Very Well. My Favourite Character Was Francesca Because The Things She Done And Thought About etc Reminded Her Of Me. I Liked The Chapters Of When They Were At Parties As They Were All Teenagers Having Fun And The Parties Remind Me Of The Kind Of Parties I Have Experianced In My Life. The Description Was Really Good.
I Think The Book Is Suitable For People Aged Between 13 And 16 As The Vocabulary Is Rather Difficult.

Harry Poter thinks he is a normal boy untill he is rescued from his creul aunt and uncle by a beetle-eyed giant of a man, enrols at hogwarts school of witch craft and wizardry, learns to play quidditch and does battle in a deadly duel.
I thought the book was really interesting. It gave alot of really good descriptions and a lot of action.I think the best part of the book was Harrys Quidditch game and he catches the golden snitch and wins the game for Griffindor(his house team) but he had one bad thing for him he threw up.
The book is suitable for ages 8 upwards.There is aquite alot of reading in the book so that is a reasonable age group.

I Would Recommend this Book To Girls Aged Between 12-14 As they Would Enjoy It.
"The Lord of the Rings The Return of the King- The War of the Ring" by J.R.R Tolkien.
The Book picks up from the end of the Two Towers and how Gondor and Rohan fight off the armies of Mordor and to try help Frodo get a safe passage into Mordor.The story also focuses on Aragon's journey on becoming King.I really enjoyed this book my favourite part was when the armies of Rohan arrived to help Gondor and when they charged and pushed back the orc army.I would say this book is suitable for ages 12 and up because it is writen in an older style of wrtingand has hard and complecated words
The book i read was called "Jaguar" and was written by Lee Stacy.
The book is about different Jaguars from the past and present cars and tells you lots of information and has six different Jaguars to tell about.
I liked the book because i like cars and i learnt a lot from it.
I think this book is suitable for 6-12.
It also tells you the bhp, mph, rpm, fuel econemy, the weight and what type of engine the car has. It also tells you what some words mean if you don't know them.

A Family Like Mine by gary Parsons.
The book that i had been reading was about a family that had a young girl called Tilly. Tilly loved dancing she always used to dance with her grandad. A few chapters into the story her Gran Lil dies. She goes to visit her grandad the next day, he didn't look too good. She also wanted a puppy but wasnt allowed one but she kept on asking but her mum said the answer is no and the house is too small. i enjoyed the book as it was funny but upsetting as when Gran Lil died then Tillys grandad didn't look too good everybody was upset. My favourite character was Tilly as she had a good sense of humour. I think the book would be suitable for 10-12 year olds age group as it is a book that young people would read more than older people.
The book i have read is The Amber Spyglass by Phillip Pullman. This book was about a girl called Lyra and a boy called Will going on an epic journey through lots of different worlds. I liked this book because it has lots of descriptions in it. My favourite character was Will because he is really brave. I think this book is suitable for good readers
The book I have been reading is called "Mighty Machines" and was published by Heinemann.
From bulldozers and tugboats, through bombers, tanks and superjumbos, ghosted-through artwork reveals the mechanism behind their power.
I really enjoyed reading this book as it has a lot of interesting facts. I really enjoyed the pages on the monster truck as they are amazing destruction machines. I also enjoyed reading the one on the bulldozer. They are really powerful machines. They help clear land and can bring down buildings.
I think children from 8 and up would like this book as it is a very interesting book.
My book is called the house with no name its all about a young boy called Jamie and his family moving house into the country house in the middle of no were. Jamie finds a new friend and started
Hanging with him. I liked this book because it had a boy who is moving house and
Iv just moved house and its exciting to read this book. My favourite part in the book is when they are in the house telling each other stories about a ghost that used to live there. I think this book is suitable for all ages and sizes because its easy to read and easy to follow. I think they should be selling more of this book all around the world. More and more people will be happy to read this to there children or reading it to them selves. I think more and more schools are going to have this book in there schools.
A book i have recently been reading is the greatest ever football line-ups by Tom MacDonald.
This book tells you about the great nations and clubs who play football. It tells you all the great player who played at both club level and national level.
I really liked this book the good thing i thought was that it added Celtic's 1967 European champions cup victory over Inter Milan
I think the book is suitable for football fans as it tells you lots of facts about football.
Its good it tells you great victories like coming back to win .It tells you what years teams were great.
Belgium has made the world cup 11 times and there best place is fourth place .
Scotland has made the world cup 8 times not getting into the last 4. They had brilliant players like Jim Baxter , Jimmy Johnstone , Denis Law , John Greig , Billy Bremmer, Bobby Lennox and Archie Gemill.
Liverpool have won the European cup 4 times , Champions League once , UEFA cup 3 times and 2 European Super Cups
The book i have read is Blood Beast by Darren Shan.This book is a really good one. I think the people who like this will be horror fans and anyone who likes thriller movies would like this book.It is about Demons following a boy called Grubitsch Grady also known as Grubbs.

The story I was reading was called The phone goes dead by Anthony Horowitz. This story is about a lady that goes a walk through Hyde park in London with a phone called the Zodiac 555 but this is no ordinary phone it made the lady get struck by lightining. She dies and her phone gets passed to a little boy called David who thinks the phone is great untill ..... he starts to get these phone calls from the dead. He a little freaked out so he burries the phone in his drawr but he could still hear the voices through the speaker so he threws the phone out of the window. The phone may have disapeared but the memories were still with him. I enjoyed this book because I liked the idea of having a phone controlling peoples heads.I think this book is suitable for people over 10 years of age because I think they would understand a little more.
Dangerous Animals by discoveries
This book is about animals and how dangerous they are in the book there is a lot of pictures and diagrams which help if you don’t know the animal. I really liked the book because it has loads of information about the animal’s weapon. My favourite animal in the book was the snake because the book gave out different snakes and there venom which helped when I was writing about it in my chapter notes .I would recommend this book to anyone who likes scary animals and blood.
The book I have read is called “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban” By J.K.Rowling. This book is about Harry’s3rd year at Hogwarts. I liked this book because of all the detail, and it has a good plot. This book is suitable for anyone who likes fictional books. This book has a very good story line and ties in well with the other Harry Potter books; I recommend that you read the other books first. There are lots of different characters but the old characters are still in the stories.
The book I have been reading is called “I was a rat or Scarlet Slippers” by Philip Pullman.
The book is about a couple who one night were disturbed by a small boy at the door. He claimed to be lost and said “I was a rat.” They brought him in and sat him down next to the fire and the husband called Bob went and got him some warm milk and bread. When he gave the boy the food, he snatched it and stuffed his face. The wife called Joan went and got a cloth and cleaned him up…………
I liked reading this book because it gave a lot of good descriptions and the characters were well described. My favourite character was the boy who was called Roger by the Husband and Wife because he thought he was a rat which is just silly, but the book was really good.
I think this book would be suitable for ages 7+ as it isn’t a huge book and there aren’t a lot of difficult words.
A book I have recently been reading is doing the Double by Alan Durant. The story is about two twins one who plays for a football team and then gets injured and his twin has to help his other twin’s football team to win the cup. I liked the book; I liked the bit where Joe scored the free kick. I think the book is suitable for 5 year olds upwards. I thought the book would have been better if it actually showed you if Dale and Joe joined the youth squad of a big football club. Dale swap places and Joe says the ball hit his hand when he put Blackstock up 2-1 but he went over to the referee and protested and said it was hand ball. Smithy and Joe’s dad the football legend Nicky
Green went to the Merton’s managers office and told them that him and Dale swapped and because he told the truth about the handball so the Merton Manager never complained and the match was replayed
In detail here is what this book is all about-A young boy that goes to the swimming pool with his big brother. He decides to go to the deep end to impress his brother by doing a bomb in the pool. He can’t swim and goes under neath the water and cant get back up and his lungs are burning and he is carping for a breath for a breath. His brother comes down do get him and pulls him out of the water. His brother Had a talk to him and said stay out the pool for now and his brother went back into the pool and the pig heart boy wasn’t aloud back to the pool after schools.
Later that day he had to go to the hospital because he was complaining of a sore belly and pains in his chest. The doctor came out and said it was very bad and that he had to go in and get a heart transplant. When they went in the doctor said that he has no human hearts left so they had to use a pig’s heart. After the operation the doctor said that he would not be able to take part in any activates such as sports and running and PE.
'Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets' By J.K.Rowling
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the second in the series of seven books.
Harry is back at Hogwarts for his second year along with his friends Hermione and Ron, but things aren't all too good for him.People are starting to get attacked by the Hier of Slytherin who has opened the Chamber of Secrets and the students think its Harry because he can speak parselmouth (snake language) which was a skill of Salazar Slytherin the founder of Slytherin.Hermoine is attacked and Harry and Ron must discover who is behined the attacks.With deadly spiders,a basilisk,Qudditch and even a house elf this is Harrys most dangerous year yet.
I thought this book was great and a perfect follow up to the Philospher's Stone , I think it would bve sutible for anyone aged over 8.
Deadly game by Tony branman and Martin Chatterton
A family in a field trip soon turns out to be a disaster for the son (Jake) a normal every day boy who hates life. BANG! Jake only remembers a flash of light .then science he’s all alone its some kind of joke but what if it’s real!
I didn’t like the book because it wasn’t scary enough for me but that wasn’t going to stop me from liking the book there was some really good chapters in the book and I liked how he turned the 3rd person to 1st person. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes scary but not to scary books.
My book which was called 'The Secrets of Droon' by Tony Abbott was about three friends who discover a new land called Tarkoom in their closet. In this new land they meet a Golen who hels the children defeat the beasts that live in this town and also to desroy this land. Also in the book the children are stuck in many chambers but have the brains and bravery to save themselves before they are killed by the men like creatures with birs heads. I think this is a very good book and was fun to read and I recommend children between the ages of five and thirteen to read it as it is a very enjoyable book.
Matthew Griffen 2p6

The book I Have Read Is Called Storm-Voice And Is Written By Judy Allen.
The novel is About a Family Problem – Sarah; Mother To 2 and Wife, frequently Wakes In The Middle Of The night screaming. Not Only Does It Wake Herself Up, It Also Wakes the 3 Other People in the House. Katie’s Mums Dream Is Always the Same.

I Thought This Book Was An Exciting One As It Has Its Own Story-Line And It Built Up Excitement!
I Would Recommend This Book For People Of Both Genders Aged Between 13 And 15.
The book is called “Beware Killer Tomatoes” by Jeremy Strong.
Jack a boy in the story is in trouble. Big trouble. Not only is he in hospital, but he knows the police are coming for him. Because of an accident a tomato-related accident. Who could have thought tomatoes could be so dangerous!
The book I have been reading is an interesting funny story. My favourite part is where jack tells us about his accident. His mum told him to go to the shop and get some bread. He goes round on his new mountain bike. When he is in the shop he gets a basket and he sees the pyramid of tomato soup. It was a competition “Guess how many cans were in the pyramid” and you could win a holiday. There was a man counting them trying to win, but Jacks basket hit the pyramid and it fell on the man. Jack jumps back on his bike and cycles away and hits a car and breaks his leg.
I enjoyed reading this book as it was amusing. The characters were well described and very interesting.
I think this book is suitable for ages 8+ as it is a very funny book and children of that age would enjoy it.

The 3 orphans get took to a house were a man called count Olaf lived his house was all smelly and untidy like no one had even lived there for years. There was a lady next door with a lovely house and she was in her garden planting flowers the orphans looked at her house and thought that was there’s but the women pointed to the smelly house and shouted that’s were u have to go in a polite manner.
My favourite bit in this book is when they have to do a play so Count Olaf has to Marie violet but it’s not just a play it’s a real marriage so he can get the orphans fortune. I think this book is suitable for children over the age of 10 because it has a lot of reading in it and big words that some people will not understand. I think people that don’t like sad ending should put this book down and pick another one because this book has a lot of parts that are bad and it starts of bad and ends bad.
The book i recently read was called'The Runner' and it was written by Keith Gray.
The book is about a ten year old boy called 'Jason' and he is fed up with his parent's arguments, so he decided hewould run away from home and live with his big brother at his house in Liverpool and go there bytrain.On the way there he met a young boy that is also ten and his name is 'Jam'. Jam is a runner as well and he shows Jason lots of other runners on the train and at the end he gets to his brothers house.
I liked the book because it was ineteresting and exciting.
I think this book is suitable for 5+ because there aren't any signs of bad language in it.

The book i have recently read is called MUTANT by Theresa Breslin.The book is about a group of scientists, trying to find a way of growing legs, arms, hands or feet back when they have been amputated or blown away.I really liked this book because it had good cliffhangers and good description of what was going on.My favourite part of the book was when Brad was locked in the locker room.This book is suitable for over 10 year olds and likes cliffhangers.
