book reviews

Kerrimuir has recently had their book fair. Book fair is when schools buy books from a book company such as scholastic, and then people in the school come and buy the books. My class and I bought some books let’s see what they recommend!

It’s about a girl whose 15 years old and she gets offered a modelling job she thought she was really ugly and she could not understand why she got the job. She takes the offer and becomes a model!!

Geronimo stilton kingdom of fantasy by scholastic
Viewed by abhi jay
Knew from the start that it was no ordinary day, but I certainly didn't expect to find a golden staircase in my attic. Up at the top, there was a door. And beyond the door was a world I never could have imagined -- the Kingdom of Fantasy!
Along with my guide, a frog named Scribble hopper, I set off on an incredible adventure to save the Queen of the Fairies. But along the way, I had to face giant scorpions, witches, sea serpents, pixies, and dozens of other creatures that I had only ever heard stories about. Holey cheese, what a journey! Could I save the Queen . . . and my own tail?

Bliss by Kathryn Littlewood
Viewed by Serena Jones and Gwyneth fowler
The Follow Your Bliss Bakery has a remedy for everything. Stone Sleep Snickerdoodles can cure sleepwalking, and Fluffy White Macaroons once lifted a neighbour right out of a well. When the Bliss parents go on a business trip, they leave the key to their magical Bliss Cookery Book with 12-year-old Rosemary, and things go haywire. “Aunt” Lily (a distant cousin) shows up, charming Rosemary’s siblings, but Rosemary senses Lily’s true aim: to steal the book. The only way to test Lily’s trustworthiness is to whip up some of the magical recipes and observe her reactions.
