Dunger book review

Dunger by Joy Cowley

Dunger is an amazing book because it is on audio by RNZ, it is always in the action, the characters are very good and it has terrific wording. Dunger is about 2 kids who have to stay at their grandparents' beach for the holidays. 

People who like books full of action will want to read Dunger. There are exciting parts at the start, middle, and end.

 

The characters are great and William and Melissa (the main characters) each have a chapter where it is their side of the story and swaps between them.  

Dunger is very well written using colloquialisms and other words like that. The name of the book is actually a colloquialism meaning trash or should be in a dump. 

I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in these reasons. Though some people won’t be able to put the book down.

For my last Dunger activity, I did a book review on Dunger and that is it.

Book Review

 

Wings of Fire #2 The Lost Heir by Tui. T. Sutherland`

Do you like dragons and battles? If so then this is the book for you. This book is part of a 14 book series and you should read it in order otherwise you have no idea what is happening.

I love the book because it has a mystery, who is murdering all queen corals' daughters?

There is magic in the book and it is animus magic. Animus dragons are dragons that can enchant anything. I love it because there is plenty of action all the way through which makes it really exciting.

There is a large group of dragons called the talons of peace and each dragon left their tribe to try to stop the war.

I would recommend this book to children 8yrs+ because there is some dragon violence.

In Ngahere we are making magazines which we made book reviews for.

Dunger

 

Ngahere has been doing a novel study and the book I was doing was Dunger. I had to draw the setting and find the definition of a colloquialism.

In Ngahere the class is making magazines in groups. My group was with Ralph and Lucas.

Parts of speech

 

In Ngahere we have been learning about parts of speech. We made posters so we remember their meanings.
