The Worst Witch - Olivia's Bookreview

I have read a book called The Worst Witch written by Jill Murphy. It is the first book in the series about the witch Mildred Hubble. The book has got 106 pages and several pictures.

Mildred goes to a school called Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. The school lies at the top of a high mountain and looks like a prison. There, Mildred gets into trouble every day. There is someone that she doesn't like, Ethel. She is always right on the spells and Mildred is wrong every time. One day Mildred turns Ethel into a pet but something goes wrong.

I liked the book because I liked the witches, the story was very good and I can't wait until I am going to read the next book. If you like Harry Potter you are going to like this book too. From 6 to 13 i think you can be interested in these books.

I read a book called Zombies and Tommy Donbavand wrote the book. It was about a boy and his little sister. They where at the graveyard visiting their dead grandpa´s grave, when they suddenly heard a noise. Thats how they met Jake, a zombie who´s been dead for 60 years. All the zombies were going to have a party and they send Jake to fix some snacks and drinks.
So the children helped Jake with the snacks and the drinks.

I read the book out loud to my brother Anders and we think that it was good. Anders thinks that the best thing in the book is that the zombies likes lemonade and gives the book 4/5 goldstars. I think that the best thing about the book is that it is a happy suprise in the end and I also give the book 4/5 goldstars.

I would recommend this book for people who likes books that´s a bit scarry and funny but has a happy end.

What do you think you can do to get rid of red spots on your face? Sophy has an idea!

Rent - a - genius is a educational and exciting story.
I recommend it for kids between 8 and 10 years old who like clever stories. I don't recommend this book to kids who don't like stories without really funny plots.
I liked this book because it was exciting. One thing i did not like about this book was that it was not so funny.

One morning when the girl's dad comes home from rescuing a house from fire then he has a cute little golden retriever puppy with him under his jacket.

Bruno The penguin who wanted to find out



The penguin who wanted to find out by Jill Tomlinson and pictures by Paul howard

The story starts with the egg hatching and the penguin Otto comes out. He is the first baby penguin and he has to take care of the babies born after him. He needs to teach his younger friends how to do things. But first he has to learn from his dad and other grownups. It is difficult to be both teacher and student. But after a while he meets someone who knows how it is.

I think it was a good book because it made me happy, It was a positive story. Yet, the story was sometimes difficult to follow.

I would recommend this book to someone who is sad over something because then he or she might get happy.


Blenda - the cat who wanted to go home



       


                      The cat who wanted to go home by Jill Tomlinson 


This book is about a cat who lived in France. But one day she gets lost carried away by a balloon! After a wile Suzy ended up in England. And in England a women came and took care of Suzy. But Suzy wanted to get back to France. And that journey turned out to be quite an adventure!

I think that the book was both good and bad. It was good because it was a very fun story, about how Suzy got lost. But the language was childish, and the book is perhaps better for younger kids.

I would not recommend to someone in my age. But maybe to someone younger. 

Someone who is maybe 8 or 9 years old would like this book.



Linn (The ice man)








I have read the book The ice man. The authors are Roger Hurn and Jane A.C. West.

 The book is about Finn, Bruin, Kat ,Talon, Mo, Vana. They are called Tribe. And they are super–heroes because they have special powers. Tribe are humans and animals. Their plan is to save the world from anyone who tries to destroy the world. They need to find the bad persons before its too late. The  Planet is in trouble and only Tribe have the power to help.

In the book Tribe went to the artic to stop Ty Koone and his oil rig. Ty Koone has built a robot called The ice man to scare away all the people in village.

I like the book very much so I give it ★★★★ stars.  I like the book because it was exciting. I Would you recommend the book to kids my age. and I think they would think it was good.

Our Friends by W. Murray

This book is about different children. They are about 8 years old. In the book you are following the children to different places such as the farm. There was a girl named Pam that lived on a farm. She did like to help her mother and father. Pam’s best friends are Jane and Peter. They like to go home to Pam and Pam likes to go to Jane for some tea.

I did not like the book because it was from 1964. I cannot recommend this book to my friends because it is no action in the book.

I can recommend this book to children that will learn new words. At the end of the book it is a English/Swedish glossary with 50 words.

The Twits by Roald Dahl





Mr Twit and Mrs Twit are really disgusting. They are playing tricks that are disgusting, and they hate children. But the worst is that they have monkeys in the garden and they have Bird Pie every Wednesday.

Now the upside down monkeys want revenge...

I think that the ones that thinks that english is hard to read this book is a perfect book. But maybe not for them that are scard of disgusting tricks.

Hope you read it!
