Matilda
Want to Guess Who?
Yes, it's .....
MATILDA!
Matilda is child genius. All she wants is to go to school but, her father never lets her. Finally her father sends her to a school. She has a lovely teacher called Ms.Honey. Matilda surprises Ms. Honey by doing amazing math. A five year old doing 14 X 19 in two seconds?
Could you do that at age five?
No.
I thought so. Or....
Can you do that now?
Yes ?
Wow
No?
Keep on trying.
So back to Matilda. The headmistress, Ms.Trunchbull is a foul, evil woman.
Matilda becomes very good friends with Ms.Honey.
But Ms. Honey has a secret and Matilda feels that it's up to her to find out what it is.
If you read this book you can help Matilda find out the secret.
The Switch
Tad Spencer is not happy, when he comes back from boarding school. His filthy rich parents don’t even care about him, in fact when he came back from boarding school and saw his mother. The first thing his mother asked was how is my nose job .Tads father is nothing different because when Tad’s dad came home he said son I am back and guess what since I am back home early I can chat with you for 9 minutes? So within those 9 minutes Tad asks his dad if he and his best friend can go to the theme park near his house and his father says it is too dangerous. Tad goes to bed in a bad mood and wishes he was someone else. When Tad wakes up he is surrounded by a bunch of crooks and then he finds out that he had turned into a boy called Bob Snarby!!! Tad is not happy with the things they give to eat there and there is only one person who knows that he is not really Bob Snarby and That he is Tad Spencer. The person who knows that he is Tad Spencer is a mysterious doctor with a mysterious friend.
This book is by Anthony Horowitz and if you have read this book or after you read this book then I recommend the Alex Rider Series and a book called Granny both by Anthony Horowitz.

YOU ARE A BAD MAN MR. GUM
Mr. Gum is the most disgusting man ever. Andy Stanton did good job at describing how Mr. Gum is disgusting. The illustrator, David Tazzyman showed absolute perfect picture how Mr. Gum looks like and his messy drawing made different feelings from the other books. In the most of the page there were full of funny jokes and I didn't miss any laughs. We can’t imagine what is the jokes gonna be because the joke is total different that what you are thinking about.
The bonus story at the end was also fabulous and you have to read it. There will be several pages left when you finish the book and there are some of message... OOPS!!! Sorry to telling you that there is the bonus story. OOPS!! Sorry again. This book drove me crazy. Yeah, it could be crazy for CRAZY LAUGH!! I’ll end this with this sentence. I WANT YOU TO READ ‘YOU ARE A BAD MAN, MR. GUM'
