SNOWED UNDER BY SERGE BLOCH

review by Sneha

This book is about a little boy who has a good ear and hears all about the Christmas confusions in the house, like this - "When I told her her how worried I was about Santa, she said that he was snowed under."  AND what does Snowed under mean?  Flip the pages through this book and you will get tied up with the confusion.

Suitable for all ages.

Enjoy!

STORMBREAKER: THE GRAPHIC NOVEL BY ANTHONY HOROWITZ

reveiw by Conor

I thought this was AWESOME!!  It is about a 14 year old boy named Alex Rider.  His uncle says that he is a banker at a bank called the Royal and General Bank.  But, when Alex's uncle gets shot, Alex is informed his uncle ws really an agent for the M16 and now they want Alex to join them.  This book is a graphic novel which means it is a comic stip. Boys and Girls would both enjoy this book.

UNDER THE MOUNTAIN BY MAURICE GEE

review by Kate L 

Rachel and Theo Matheson are special red headed twins.  They have no idea what is haunting them, until an old man comes along and explains it all.  They find that only they can stop what is happening under the mountain.  This book is aimed at more older and mature readers, and has been made into an exciting movie.
