Hang in there Bozo : a Ruby Redfort book by Lauren Child - reviewed by Lily
Really, really funny and that’s basically all you can say
about it. There are two other Ruby Redfort books - she is a 13 year old spy who
works for an agency called Spectrum. She has an undercover agent babysitter
called Hitch and a good friend called Clancy. There are really weird tips in
the book, like how to start a fire and how to get away from someone dangerously
dull.
Rated: 4 reallys - Lily also recommends the Inside a Dog website (you can find it and other book site links on our Online resources page).

Monsieur Cadichon: memoirs of a donkey by Countess de Ségur - reviewed by Lola
It’s about a donkey and his life. The author pretends that
the donkey wrote it. It was written over 150 years ago. Every chapter is a
different story. It’s about a quick-witted, harmless donkey who’s fat. He has a
lot of different masters and mistresses as he’s naughty and gets kicked out of
home a lot. He ends up living with a boy called Jacques. There’s more of him in
the Fleurville trilogy by the same author.
Rated: 4.2 reallys

person who hired her is Mr Green who is a tax lawyer and he hates his
children. Nanny Piggins works for 11 cents an hour. She was a headmistress for
a day and she has twelve identical sisters and one brother. She also has an
adopted brother called Boris who is a Russian ballet dancing bear. Boris’s
house is the shed. Wendy, Deidre & Beatrice are some of her evil sisters.
Deidre was Mr Green’s fiancé and she only wanted to marry him for his
car. She was going into a demolition derby and she took his vomit-yellow Rolls
Royce. Nanny Piggins got him a new vomit-brown Rolls Royce to replace the one
Deidre stole.
Rated: 5 reallys
Eragon by Christopher Paolini (who is in the Guinness book
of records as the youngest living best-selling author) - reviewed by Jack
It’s about a boy called Eragon who finds a polished blue
stone in the forest that’s really a dragon egg. He takes it home, thinking that
it would buy his family meat over winter. It hatches overnight. The creepy old
storyteller had this dragon who died and came back to be Eragon’s dragon. They
go on a quest to kill his uncle’s murderers. At the end of the book they find
the rebel’s hideout and there’s a big battle.
Rated: 4 reallys
