You’re a Bad Man Mr Gum! by Andy Stanton
Written by Jack 8SW
I strongly feel that everyone should read this jaw-dropping book as it takes you to a hilarious new dimension. This book is great; the best book I’ve ever read by a mile. I know you’ll like it.
This brilliant book is recommended for ages 7-12 however the humour inside will even make the older ones giggle like mad! Ecstatic, entertaining and elevating, this book will blow your mind away (not literally though!). This fantastic book has won numerous awards and if you read it you will know why.
There are many magnificent drawings to compliment the descriptive text, like the champagne with your oysters. Don’t be tempted to read other books because this is the one for you. If you do, you will miss out on a lifetime of reading heaven.
The book I would like to put forward is called Artemis Fowl and the Last Guardian. It is a superb read, constantly leaving you on the edge of your seat; it will also leave you in stitches. It is a page turning read that is very entertaining. It is a real hectic fusion of the real, the imaginary and the interesting uses of fairy technology. From laser guns to mind wipers this book has it all. The main character is a boy called Artemis Fowl; his parents are caught up in a lot of criminal activities and when his father goes missing he inherits the empire. Although his plans are more folklore than fraud (he does steal millions of pounds from them but …), this is a brilliant book to read and I really would recommend it. There aren’t any books that come even close to how individual but excellent this book is.
Billionaire Boy by David Walliams
Written by Wayde 8MZ
I really think that you should read this book because I think it is hilarious. This is because the main character does stupid things. It is a gripping story because he puts £50 into the hamster cage to make the hamster eat it and what happens next is really funny. This a must read book!
War Horse by Michael Morpurgo
Written by Joe 8CT
Do you like adventure? Do you like being unique? Do you like happy endings? Then you will love the book War Horse by the brilliant children’s author, third children’s laureate, Michael Morpurgo. Told by a horse called Joey this book teaches through the movement of excitement, surprise and sadness. You will learn about World War 1, how the life of a horse is and what it feels like to have an ‘irregular’ family. This author has been awarded an OBE for the brilliance of his novels so join me in the everlasting spirit of reading one of his many inspirational books!
