The book is about a girl named Shen who receives a magic paintbrush from a man with a condition: she can only use it to help the poor. When the king wants her to make a tree full of gold, she refuses and ends up in jail. But Shen's cleverness helps her escape using the paintbrush to paint a horse. It's fantastic book ,I loved reading it.

Review From:
Dublin
I like this book because it has a lot of action in all parts of the book. I like when Percy finds that Ares and Luke are being hypnotized by Kronos. And how foolproof Kronoses plan would be if Ares had attacked Percy inland. This is a brilliant book I would recommend this book to anyone from 8-11. (I got the first book and now I am hooked !)

Review From:
Dublin
I read the Little People Big Dreams book about David Bowie.
I liked that David wasn't afraid to be himself. He was very confident.
His dream was that all the children in the world would sing his songs.
I also liked how he changed his look and confused people a little.
I really enjoy this book and would recommend it.

I liked the bit where they were complimenting each other about how much they loved each other. I didn’t like the sad bit at the end. It took me two days to read. You should read it too.
