How Books Are Made (The book)

Hi,

Did you ever wonder how books were introduced to the world? Well, I've got a book for you! Its name is How Books Are Made. One thing I like about this book is that it gave me pictures of things that I can’t imagine, for example a leaf used by the Indians with writing on it. One cool fact is that in some places people do not use books but they tell the stories orally!

A very interesting fact from the book is that, there used to be NO books some thousand years ago so people told stories orally and finally when it became inconvenient to share stories around the world people started writing their stories on various materials for instance, the Indians used leaf, lots of civilizations used metal, the Egyptians used papyrus and rock and the Australian Aboriginals used cave walls.

I would recommend this book to anyone who loves reading!

THANKS FOR READING 

Horrible Histories, the series

Have you ever thought history books where boring? Well actually it's fun stuff, because there are Horrible Histories!! These books are based on a civilization or a period known to the world because something big happened. These books make the boring facts into very very interesting facts. If you ever come upon a Horrible Histories book then I reckon you that you will find it fun. One very interesting Horrible Histories book is 'The Blitzed Brits'. This book gives you facts about how the Brits lived like in the Second World War. For example: what they ate, rationing, gas masks and lots more! One very cool fact is that the government persuaded children to wear gas masks by making  'fun masks'. One example was the Mickey Mouse mask. One thing that the kids found out was the if you wore the mask and blew very hard, the air rushed out of the side and made a very rude noise!

This is the Mickey Mouse mask  

Hope you enjoyed reading this and buy a Horrible Histories book at you nearest bookstore!

P.S Remember, history is never boring with Horrible Histories!

Gilbert the Pig Has an Adventure

I read a book called Gilbert the Pig goes on an Adventure by Michele Dufrense. This is a book about a pig that has an adventure. It is an adventure book. In this book Gilbert the pig goes on the street to look for many different things. He meets a dog and a duck, they scared Gilbert off. Then he comes to a playground he sees children playing. He was playing ball with them. In the end he came back for his dinner. Maybe he will go on another adventure.

On the middle of tenth month of 2011, I finished reading the first book of The 39 clues called The Maze of Bones. The book was awesome and I really liked it because it was the book with adventures and mysteries the things that I enjoyed. This book became one of my best book!

The book is about Dan, and Amy who are the sisters and brothers, and these guys were orphan and they don't have any clue of their parents so they were living in her aunt’s house but the aunt was not nice at all. Now Grace the coolest grandma of Cahills’ was dead. Grace was grandma of Dan and Amy and she was one of best grandma for Dan, and Amy.

They invited to the hotel for Grace. Mr. McIntyre showed the video than just minute before Grace dead and Grace told all of people in the hotel “If you go out then you will get one million dollars but if you stay here and find the 39 clues then you will be most famous, interesting person in the history”. So they are having adventure. They found 2 clues.

This book is awesome because the author was the man who wrote ‘Percy Jackson’. And he is Rick Riordan! The student who love this author will love this book.
The special thing about this book is that this series continues but different authors are writing this book. I think this one is better because he is awesome.

Alex Rider series

Name: Alex Rider, age: 14, City of residence: London, school: Brookland Comprehensive.

Alex Rider, My favorite series of this year. The best parts of this series are, the adventure ( of course ), lots and lots of gizmo gadgets, enemies and last but not least.... ALEX RIDER!!!!

Alex has no parents, his uncle mysteriously dies in car crash. That starts a weird life after his uncle dies, getting to know that his uncle is a spy and he didn’t die in a car crash but he died in a shooting incident. THEN he finds out that he will become a spy. going through eight very very hard missions in one year is too much for a normal school kid to do. Alex is very special to MI6 cause he is young and enemies will always think that he is innocent.

Alex Rider Stormbreaker

Alex Rider Stormbreaker 

 By Sahil 4C

I recommend Alex Rider Stormbreaker because its a bit funny and it is adventure action.The authors name is Anthony Horowitz. Alex Rider is a 14 year old boy who's parents are dead. This book is about Alex Rider. One morning two police men came to his house and said Ian Rider {his uncle} is dead!!!

They said he died in a car crash but Alex didn’t believe them. Alex knew his uncle didn’t die in a car crash but Alex didn’t believe them. Alex knew his uncle didn’t die without his seat belt.Alex looks for some clues but doesn't find any.

One day Alex was going to school he saw his uncle’s car!!! He ran to it and he examined the car. In the front glass they were a few bullet marks. Right then Alex knew that his uncle Ian Rider didn’t die in a car crash and didn’t die without his seat belt.

In this book their is a weird man can you guess who!!! I’ll give you a hint his name starts with Y he is a brutal killer!!! And he’s after the MI6 {a spy company}. And Alex finds him self in a cat and mouse game with no way out.

I read the book called Big Nate Strikes Again. Nate is the main boy character in this story and it’s funny. It tells what happens in the middle school.

I am wondering that how did the author Lincoln Pierce got this idea and I think that maybe this is real story of his life!! That’s cool. The best thing about this book is that this book is using easier English!!! Isn’t that awesome? It is the best thing for the children who doesn't know English properly. So even I can understand more details that author tries tell me.

Nate is drawing many cartoons more and more. He normally draws comics about his teacher or the annoying friends. Sometimes it is not really fun but sometimes it gives me a big laugh. That’s the problem that I can’t be quite when I am laughing.

Mrs. Yonkers Is Bonkers!

The title of the book is called “Mrs. Yonkers is Bonkers!”

Mrs. Yonkers is a computer teacher, and she is the dumbest teacher in the book. She can type with her toes. She even puts a web-cam on her turtle. She invents funny stuff like: remote control remote control, that is a remote control that can bring your remote control to you when you are in your bed or somewhere else in the house.

Read this book to find out if Mrs. Yonkers creates new stuff.

The Curse of the Cheese pyramid

The Curse of the Cheese Pyramid

Author By Geronimo Stilton

Recommended By Anna-Lena

The Curse of the Cheese pyramid is a very good book because it is interesting and it describes very good what's going to happen next. I felt that I could just keep reading without stopping. I was very excited what was going to happen? The illustration is very color- full and pretty good that you will like the ilustraters name is Danilo Barozzi, Francesco Castelli, and Christian Aliprandi and the auther name is Geronimo Stilton. The character is Geronimo Stilton who is very afraid of going to the hot desert and he thinks there will be no cheese and thatt's why he dosen't want to go but he still thinks to go to the Cheese pyramid. He never has been to Egypt and he really wants to see the cheese mummy. To get there he needs to fly this plane which is very wobbly. Is he going to survive or is he going to survive with his cheese? OR... To find out you have to read this book.
