It’s about a girl who moves house to an apartment and she finds a secret door which just opens onto bricks, but at night when she opens the door the bricks vanish and there is a world there where people have buttons for eyes. She doesn’t want to stay in this world because she doesn’t want to have buttons for eyes. The woman there tries to persuade her to stay and promises her a lot and then Coraline realises these people are evil and bad and tries to get back to her normal world but it is really hard.

Two authors live in a tree that is 26 storeys high. Their names are Andy and Terry. Terry gets a sea monkey, Ed, instead of a mermaid. The mermaid is actually a sea monster. They have to shrink the sea monster until it is tiny. I don’t want to give away too much so that’s the end of my review!

How to ditch your fairy by Justine Larbalestier - reviewed by Zoe
It’s about a world where everyone has their own fairy. For instance
if you had a fashion fairy you will get great dress deals or a parking fairy
you’d get really good parks or a love fairy all the girls or all the boys, depending, like you. In this story the girl gets a parking fairy. She doesn’t
even like cars. She tries to get rid of it and get a different one. The girls
don’t like the girl with the love fairy because all the boys like her. In the
end they work out a way to swap. The story has got a lot of tension, it doesn’t
leave you hanging and it finishes well. I had a lot of late nights reading it – it was so much fun.
Rated: 5 reallys - Recommended for those 9-29!
The 39-storey treehouse by Andy Griffiths - reviewed by Yuanquan
There are 13 storeys every single time. In this book they have added a non-erupting volcano, an opera, baby dinosaur zoo, a boxing elephant called the Trunkinator, not a very merry-go-round, a disco with a large dance floor and mirror ball and lots more.
I have got all 3 books and in September The 52-storey treehouse will be out. It is about when Terry invents a once-upon-a-time-machine - there is one toilet for 50 animals and 3 people and one bowl of porridge for each of them to eat.

Mary Poppins by P. L. Travers - reviewed by Olivia
I’ve read it 3 times! I really like it because it’s a really good book. Mary Poppins comes down on an umbrella, the umbrella has a bird head that talks. She looks after Jane and Michael, John and Barbara and takes them on adventures into paintings. She has a magic handbag that has everything in it, also everything can fit into it.
