The giraffe and the pelly and me: book review

The giraffe and the pelly and me


This book is about a young boy named Billy. He visits a house that used to be a grubbers once, nearly every day then one day he sees on the house the sign SOLD. Billy wished that he became a grubber and bought that house so he can sell or kinds of lollies like sherbet, and many more. When Billys standing on the other side of the road he sees that somebodys throwing out stuff out of the window like a bathroom sink and more weird stuff to throw out. The giraffe and the pelly and the monkey  needing to make money because they bought the house.

The giraffe and the pelly and the monkeys job to earn money is to clean peoples windows so they become nice and shiny, and they don’t use ladders to climb at all. The giraffe and the pelly cain has something unique about themselves, the giraffes neck can grow longer and longer and it goes higher and higher until no one has a site of her face that's how high she can go. The pelican can do something with his beak the top part can go smaller like a measuring tape so he doesn't need open his mouth.

My favourite character in this book is the giraffe because she can go as high as she wants to go in the sky. I recommend this book to 7-10  yr olds, because it has a lot of interest for little kids and it has riming words in it too, and it is also funny. I rate this 8 out of 10 because its funny and this book is illustrated by Quentin.

Boys jumping off the bridge

Orientation

OMG I can’t believe what my eyes are seeing. I see two young boys, one of the young boys leaps up in the air! it looks like he doesn't want to do it any more like he wants to get back up , and the other boy is staring at the sea concentrating and waiting for his turn.I try to think of something else to get this out of my head like how beautiful the sea looks or how fresh the air smells like, but its so terrifying to forget.

Body

It is so scary for the two boys that are so young I can't believe the will to do this, and they might, break a bone on a rock or he might drown.The boy who is jumping off make my hands all sweaty and get some little butterflies in my tummy. When he jumps off it looks like when he lands in the water he might do a belly flop.

Conclusion

I wonder what if he hurt himself and I am the only one there to help I might get in trouble and his family will never forgive me.

INTRODUCTION  
Today our school is at the Mary Mackillop centre.  I am sitting down on my seat in Church looking at the beautiful land that they have and I tell myself, they take very good care of this property. When I turn my head and look straight ahead, I see an old women sitting near the front. She says to everyone that she worked at CTK school in 1954 and CTK was founded in 1954 so that means she was there from the start.


She is wearing a pink sweater and some blue pants and her name was Sister Elizabeth. I am so happy to see a sister that used to work at our school, I also like hearing  some of the stories she is sharing. I think to myself” These nuns are very nice”.

We were still at the Chapel and I can hardly wait any longer,because I want to see their home. I wonder if their house is bigger than our school.

Esio Trot:


Book review: Esio Trot

Esio Trot is about Mr Hoppy who has a very big crush on Mrs Silver, his neighbor. But there was a problem, because Mrs Silver loved and adored her tortoise. His name was Alfie, she feeds him cabbage and lettuce, so he grows fast.

I like Mr Hoppy as the best character because he has good ideas and one of them was to win Mrs Silver's heart.I recommend this book to children ages 8 to 10 because its fun to read and I rate this 7 out out of 10.This book is a very interesting story and story and you feel like you're in it being in love. If you want to read this book  I hope you enjoy it.
