My Best Friend and Other Enemies

This new book is one of my favourites and one that other children around my age can relate to. It is an easy read and not too fat, nor too thin. My Best Friend and Other Enemies is based on a girl called Jessica, who has had a best friend called Natalie since year one. They did everything together. They wrote songs, played games and had sleepovers. That was untill new girl Amelia joins, who steals Natalie and bullies Jessica. Will Jessica ever be able to outwit Amelia and Natalie but keep everyone as friends? It isn't too boyish or too girly and is a great book about school. I thoroughly recommend this funny, enjoyable and entertaining book 100% to 9-11 year olds. Enjoy!



The Band of Loren

This is a wonderful book.
The main character in this book is a girl called Hannah. One day,when her uncle comes to stay he gives her two presents. The first one is a beautiful coral necklace and the second one is a dream catcher.
That night, when Hannah goes to sleep, the dream catcher whisks her away to a land called Dreamworld. There Hannah makes good friends and is happy, but because there are danger signs and a mysterious cloud going around Dreamworld, she could be happier. At bedtime every night, Hannah and four of her new friends explore different parts of Dreamworld, trying to save it from the cloud.
This is a really gripping book and I didn't want to put it down.
This is Tess Dali's first book and she is already one of my favourite authors.
This book is medium sized with 274 pages.
I recommend it to girls aged 9-11.
Happy reading!
