When I read this I was thinking that it would be boring. But I was wrong!! It is actually brilliant. It shows you what it's like to be a roman solider. It shows you how tall you have to be to join, and marching orders. I recommend this to anyone who has a wild imagination.

It was okay. I didn't really get it, but it was okay! I didn't get the book because I couldn't catch up with the book. Its about a family. They are living on their own because their mother is dead and their father ran away. Their kids names were Pipa, Mila, Sanna and Oskar. They had to save Oskar, from the Bear. I kinda liked this book because its about family and friends!

I recommend this book! Its about a boy, and there was a empty chair at the back of his classroom. But now, a new boy called Ahmet took that seat! Ahmet was a Refugee who's run away from war. I really liked this book because it tells you about different lives and people. I think 8-10 year olds should read this book!

Snug was a very good cat. Lisa looked after Snug and loved him. Snug was a brave cat. He was the best cat of all. He was able to do nearly anything. It is a happy and sad story. It was mysterious and weird. I liked the pictures. I wish Snug was real and in my own house.

If there is anyone who is interested in football then I highly recommend this book. There is always something going on whether it’s winning the champions league, losing the World Cup final to Germany, or simply winning a game of football with his cousin against his older cousin and his two older brothers.

Review From:
Dublin
I loved it! It is so good and I recommend to 9 to 12 year olds! You will have a blast reading it. It's all about this girl called Aurora, and she secretly had super powers passed down from generations! It's soooo, cool! There are other books too but I advice start from the start to understand!
And the drawings are marvellous! Really! This book is especially for girls, WHY? Because it is all from a girls perspective. But! Boys can read it too! It's for everyone! 💜😃. It kinda reminds me of someone going through changes like puberty or growing up and maturing. It's a great help, and I thank Alessia for making it, also read Star Switch it's fab!
