If you like kittens you will like this book. It is about a girl who gets a kitten called Tiger and he's really mischievous. My favourite part was when he got stuck up a tree and they got him down. I must say Tiger was definately the funniest character. The author has written lots of other books I want to read.

The diary of a wimpy kid
Book Author:

Review From:

These books are all about Greg who writes in his diary about things he does every day.

Everything Greg seems is funny and his family are very funny. In this book it is summer vacation and even though it is nice and hot Greg insists on staying inside hooked up to his video games with the blinds drawn. His mother is tired of Greg being lazy and decides that this summer should be fun and packed with family activities.

This book was very good. My favourite character has to be Greg as he can be horrible but the audience always roots for him anyway! I really like the part when Greg's mum is forgotten by the whole family at a petrol station in the middle of nowhere - it is hilarious.

This is Prahaladh, a sports car maniac. I love sports cars more than anything in the world. One day I came to the library, hoping to find a good sports car book in the children's section. I searched every nook and corner of the section but couldn't find any affordable sports car book. I probed through the adults section, passing history books, IQ books, Fiction books and finally, a sports car book that met my expectations, packed with facts,scenic sports car pictures and revolutionary timelines. This was exactly the book I was looking for, at a different level of excellence. *Thanks Paul Guinnes by the way for such a good book🤝.

Review From:
Dublin
The Prince Little People, Big Dreams book is pretty fun. It's about a little boy exploring music. When he was little he wasn't allowed to play his Dad's piano but he still did. His first ever song was called Funk Machine and it made his sister groove. School wasn't his thing but dance theatre was! After a while, he was able to play 27 instruments. Overall we give this book 4 out of 5. It's very fun, colourful and a good book for 7s and over.

The Mary Anning Little People, Big Dreams book is a very interesting book about fossils and fossil hunting and has very good history. It has some challenging words that some kids wouldn't understand. Overall we give this book five out of five because it is very colourful and educational. We think it is best for over 8's. Aoibhe and Lucia

This is an amazing book filled with action and adventure, it is just out of this world. I love how it has the theory of the multiverse. This is a truly magical story.

Flick is now a badge-wearing member of the Strange Worlds Society, so when an urgent summons arrives from the World of the Break, she and Strange Worlds Guardian Jonathan immediately hop into a suitcase to take them there.
