Doubting Thomas

Hi.
Today I am reviewing Doubting Thomas by Morris Gleitzman.
It is a book about a boy in Australia who has nipples that itch whenever someone lies. He soon finds out that the problem with his nipples could lead to his death.
This is a truly gripping book and I couldn't put it down.
This book is a medium sized book with 178 pages.
It starts off in Australia but ends up in Paris.
My favourite part of the book was when Monsieur Poulet(the husband of someone who Thomas and his friends went to look for) said "Bottom plops! That is the only English swear word I know!" Then one of Thomas's friend offered to write some down for him!
This is an extremly enjoyable book which I recommend to 7-10 year olds.

Philippa Fisher's Fairy Godsister

This book is about a girl called Philippa and she has two embarrassing parents. They both are entertainers and can both do magic. When the new girl from school comes to Philippa, she is surprised to hear that the new girl (called Daisy) is a fairy. Daisy had been told to give Philippa three wish vouchers, but each wish seems to make things worse.

Germ Wars


Hello, today the book that I am reviewing is called Germ Wars, by Gill Arbuthnott.
This book tells you about lots of plagues and diseases that there have been in the world and which still are in the world. It also tells you about antibiotics.
Now I know what Ring a Ring a Roses is really about. Once you find out what it means you can find it a bit scary!
