A book that I have just read is Pirate's Treasure by Carol Moore. The story took place in Jimmy's garden. Jimmy was trying to solve a mystery. My favourite character was Jimm'y dog. A problem the main character has was looking for a treasure. My favourite part of the book was when Jimmy and his dog looked inside the hole. I liked it because Jimmy got tricked. I dislike it when Bluebeard told about the treasure because he fooled Jimmy. An interesting part of the book was when Jimmy was digging. From reading the book, I learned not to believe to my dreams. I give it 9 marks out of 10.

A book that I have just read is Funny Fish by Michaela Morgan. The story took place in the Ocean
My favourite character was the Brown Fish
A problem the main character’s had was they were too proud of their beauty
My favourite part of the book was when the brown fish hides from the big fish 
I liked it because it should how smart the brown fish was
I disliked it when the red and the yellow fish died because it made me sad
An important part of the book was never be too proud be happy with what god has given you

I would recommend it for all children in my class
From reading, the book I learned to be happy with myself
This book made me think about life is small and we should enjoy it and be happy

I give it 10 marks out of 10

A book that I just read is Captain Underpants and the T T T T by Dav Pilkey. The story took place in Ohio,Piqua. My favourite characters were George and Harold. A problem the main character, Kipper Krupp was that he was a bully. My favourite part of the book was the banana cream pie paradox, I liked it because it's always changing. I disliked it when it ended because it was sad. An exciting part of the book was in the middle of the book. I would recommend it for my best friends. From reading, the book I learned to never get bullied and some pranks. This book made me think about when I got bullied. I give it 10/10.
