Book Review - Thief by Malorie Blackman



Book review- Thief by Malorie Blackman

Thief by Malorie Blackman is a fantastic time travelling/ in the future story for all ages.
It was published in 1995.

Lydia runs away from home because she is accused of being thief, and is whirled into a storm that takes her into the future, were her old town is controlled by an evil tyrant. She needs to get back to her own time but there is a huge problem…

Lydia is the main character and she is one of my favourites because everything happens to her (she’s the victim), but she tries to be the hero. That leads me onto her brother Daniel; he tries to be the hero as well but is the one who is causing most of the trouble.

There were some parts of the story that made me laugh, like when Lydia and Daniel are tied up and are being watched by Frankie. Frankie (who is meant to make sure they don’t move) then cuts their rope and lets them free, causing a big chase. And when Lydia and Frankie show the head teacher showing Anne confess…

I absolutely loved Thief and thought it was a sweet but action packed story. At some points I just couldn’t put the book down. Great!
10/10

Review

Hi!

Below is my Review. Please remember this is my first review.

Review: Film: Dream Girls


Film Review: Dream Girls

Release Date:
2nd February

Stars:

Beyonce Knowles who plays Deena, one of the band members
Eddie Murphy (played Donkey in Shrek) who play the legendary singer James " Thunder" Early.
Jennifer Hudson (American Idol runner up in 2007) who plays Effie one of the strongest singers in the group.

The Plot:

Set in the 60s, three soul singers try to get in the music industry but people keep turning them down. They finally get the chance to show people what they are made of, and get to back up one of the legends James " Thunder" Early. Then when people have finally realised that they have potential to sing on there own, Curtis Taylor and Effie’s brother decide to put Deena in lead, which upsets Effie.

Best Bits:

When Effie has an argument with the other members of the group. Instead of shouting her argument she sings it with power and emotion. Not forgetting all the singing.

Fave Characters:

Effie because she has a great voice and just her personality.
Lorrell is another one of my favourites because she plays the youngest and she is very funny.

Any weak bits:
It was a bit of a sudden ending.

Hit or Miss:
I would say definitely a hit; I’ll run to the shops when it comes out on DVD.



Report Review complete

Hi!

My report and review are complete.

They are below.

Please leave a comment.



Report: What I think of the Playground Ban?

What I think of the playground ban!


The other day I heard that a school in Lincolnshire had banned contact playground games. One of them, which is a very popular game, called "Tag". They banned the game because they thought it was too rough.


Break time is the time where we can have fun. Running around is part of it. Without having a break we wouldn’t be able to work properly.


Playing contact games like Tag can be a lot of fun but it can be dangerous at times.
So with that in mind, I can see why teachers have banned the game.


However I do think that it’s a bit unfair, mainly because it’s an enjoyable game and even though you fall over its part of growing up.


So all in all I think that St John's Primary should stop being such a drag and bring back Tag!

A debate on cats!

Hello!

Today I was talking to my friend about cats and what we think of them. E has a completely different opinion on cats to me. Below is our debate.


Debate on Cats

"The love able felines are very cute and really good company like if you have something to get off of your chest they will listen and show sympathy where others would just laugh. Like if you really need a friend just remember your cat is the best friend you can possibly have!"
By E


Opposite thoughts!


"Cats are selfish. How are they selfish? Well for a start they only care about themselves. For example when you have fed them they ask to go straight away. Then when you try to feed them they won’t eat. And you know why… they've been to someone else’s house. How selfish!"
By Y

What do you think?

Book Review

Hi everyone!

A few days ago, I finished reading a book called " Zillah and Me" by Helen Dunmore.
I've never done a book review so I think I am going to try and learn how to do one and do a review for " Zillah and Me".
It should be fun!

If you have any tips on writing a book review, that would be great!
Thanks!

Fairie Report!

Hi Guys!



Sorry I haven't been on for a while. Happy New Year!



Sorry I took so long I was a bit delayed. Hope you like it!
Here's my report I did on Fairy's:


What I think of Fairies!

I think Fairies may exist.
A fairy, what is a Fairy? My opinion of a fairy is a supernatural being. They look like humans, but have small wings. They have the ability to fly and cast spells.

Some say fairies cause mischief, like putting " elf locks’’ into peoples hair while they are asleep. Elf locks are tangles. On the other hand some people say Fairies are kind and help people in difficult situations. I think Fairies are more likely to be kind than nasty.

Do fairies exist?

I really don’t know. Some people say they do and some say they don’t.
For me to know that they really exist, I have to see one. If I took a picture of one and saw it in the photograph and began to see more of them. Then I would start to believe in them.

So all, in all I think Fairies are caring, supernatural beings that may exist in this huge and extraordinary world.
