Book club📚

Hi Everybody,

In lockdown, my best friend Megan, my Nan and I have set up a virtual book club where we read a set amount of a book then discuss it every Thursday on zoom. We just finished “The Boy at the Back of the Class” by Onjali Q. Rauf, which I highly recommend. Now we are going to start reading “The Silver Sword” by Ian Serraillier.

Here are some pictures:

 

See you in three weeks! Byee!

Reading Around the World Challenge

Hi Everyone,

At today’s Big Book Blether Mrs Jardine asked if I knew any good books with settings from around the world, so here are my recommendations:

Early Level:

Hug and other Bobo Stories by Jez Alborough

Handa’s Surprise by Eileen Browne

Lots by Marc Martin

The Tiger Child – Joanna Troughton

First Level:

Chinese Children’s Favourite Stories by Mingmei Yip

Hans Christian Anderson’s Fairy Tales

The Cat Who Walked Across France by Kate Banks

Three samurai cats : a story from Japan  by Eric A. Kimmel

Second Level:

Kensuke’s Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson

The Call of the Wild by Jack London

Refugee Boy by Benjamin Zephaniah

(Would recommend the last two books for P7 upwards)

 

Finally, here is an extra recommendation for 1st/2nd level, it’s set in London, England, but so many children have been saying on the blog and in the  hub about how we should not drop litter and we should recycle more, so I thought a few of you might enjoy The Wombles series, by Elisabeth Beresford.

Hope you find a story that you enjoy!
