The Three Billy Goats Gruff

The Three Billy Goats Gruff is one of my favourite picture books because I absolutely love Nick Sharratt's illustrations and the version of the book I've got at home is a really good 'lift the flap' book . The reason that I really love it is because I think that the Troll is ever so uhm .... creative with his menu!!! And I also like how the big billy goat.
into the Troll.
(If you dont now what that means it means BASHES ) !!!
It also rhymes nicely!

Sleepovers

Amy, Bella, Chloe, Daisy and Emily are friends at school and have their own Alphabet Club because of their names A for Amy, B for Bella, C is for Chloe, D is for Daisy and E is for Emily of these five girls no one noticed this but it was Daisy who noticed it and she also always wanted to be in a special secret club like now. It is Daisy's first year in this school she had to move to another school because of her sister Lily. Daisy's sister Lily when she was born she had special needs she was not able to talk or walk properly and so she had to go to a special school. One day Amy said she will invite her best friends to her sleepover party. Emily, Bella Chloe thought it was amazing but Daisy just smiled. Daisy knew Bella would be invited because Amy and Bella were best friends. Daisy was not sure at all if she was invited and then Emily asks Amy if Daisy could be invited "of course'' said Amy. Daisy thought that was really nice of Amy so all the girls in the Alphabet club were invited to Amy's sleep over party. Daisy got ever so excited about that the day of the party Daisy went to the shop to buy Amy a present with her mum and her sister Lily. Daisy knew that Amy loved writing so she took hours finding Amy a fountain pen there were different colours Amy loved all bright colours there were some colours they were bright red, lime green, sunny yellow and sky blue just then her sister Lily started crying so they had to leave when she was going Daisy found a set of different bright colours gel pens and then Daisy showed them to her mum they bought the gel pens and went back home. Amy loved the present that Daisy gave her. Amy said she wanted to try them but Chloe who thinks she is the boss said I don't want to write that is a waste of time we had to listen to Chloe even though it isn't her birthday. So they played some games. All of the Alphabet Club girls have a sleepover party but Daisy has a dilemma about her sleepover birthday because Chloe might be mean to Lily but after all even though Chloe was mean to Lily Daisy did have a sleep over party because everyone had one and she was invited to all of them so her mum said Daisy has to have a sleepover party to be fair on everyone. It is Amy first who has a sleepover party then it's Bella who had a swimming sleepover party then it is Emily who has a picnic for the lunch then it's the mean Chloe who has a freaky sleepover party like they watch freaky films at night at last it's Daisy who has a camping sleepover party so all of them sleep in a tent. I don't want to spoil all the fun. I think it is an excellent book to read and i would also say that this is my favorite Jaqueline Wisons's book I have read.    

Midnight

Violet has got plenty wishes she is just waiting for them to come true:

1. She wishes Will, her brother could be kinder to her.

2. She wishes she had a real friend to talk with privately.

3. And most of all, she wishes to meet her favourite author Caspar Dream (C.D.)

Violet's favourite author is Caspar Dream and she keeps writing letters to her. Here is the first letter she wrote to Caspar Dream:

Dear C.D.,

Mum and Dad are going out tonight to a big dinner and dance. I've never been to a dance unless you count school discos and they were awful. I thought Will might come and talk to me. I knew he wouldn't dance with me, though we used to do all sorts of crazy dance routines at home. But Will acts like he doesn't even know me at school. A lot of the time he acts like we're strangers at home too. It's changed everything.

I wonder if you ever go to dances? I always look in the papers of Mum's Hello! magazine just in case I might catch a glimpse of you. I did get hopeful when I read Midnight won the book of the Year Award

at some glitzy publishing do. I went to W H Smith's after school for a week, thumbing through everything, hoping there might be a photo of you. I saw a woman with long blonde hair holding a copy of Midnight and a big gold trophy in the shape of a pen nib. Is she your

wife? Your girlfriend? She's very pretty.

With love from

Violet

I love reading letters especailly in this book this and I think this letter is the best one Violet has written to Casper Dream. This book includes lot of fairies not the little-girly pink pretty fairies. The strange spooky weird creatures. Before each new chapter begins the book has a picture of a fairy with it's own caption. The first one says:

From Elfin Home by Casper Dream

The changeling Child Faries steal away beloved babies and leave away a changeling Child in their place. These base elfin breeds are often evil, with difficult, demanding natures and enormous appetites.

Mum was keep on telling Will to look after me. Mum treated me like I was 3 not 13. I am looking forward to what will happen next!
