His uncle had been working there to find out what they were up to, but got too close.

I would definitely recommend this book to others!! It is really fun and exciting. I didn't want to put the book down at all.

The main character is Alex Rider a fourteen year old boy.

The themes in this story are: adventure and death.

The name of the play is ‘Romeo and Juliet '.

The author of this play is William Shakespeare.

 I found this play very interesting and exciting. It skips to different places which sometimes get confusing, but it is still brilliant. So because of these points I would give this Shakespeare love story 10 out of 10.

One of Shakespeare's best known plays: the tragic love story of Romeo and Juliet. A tale of two lovers from two feuding families, the Capulet and Montague families brought together by fate and take their lives because of who they are and what family they belong to.

The play is set on the streets of Verona where the story begins with a fight between the two families; all started by servants of Lord Capulet and Montague which Prince Escalus has to break up. We first come across Romeo, son of Lord Montague, talking to Benvolio, his cousin and friend, in a sad and droopy mood. He is love with Rosaline, but she does not love him back. They hear there is a party at the Capulet house, so Benvolio decides to bring Romeo, to take his mind of Rosaline even though they should not go. It is here where we see Juliet for the first time. Romeo and Benvolio is Capulet's house when he sets his eyes on Juliet. When he sees her he says ‘O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night like a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear; beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!'

He goes over to talk to Juliet and they talk for awhile and then kiss.

As every one is leaving they both find out which family each other are from.

Romeo waits in Juliet's garden where they arrange to be married.                                                                                                                                                                                                            The following day they get married but it is the same day that Romeo kills Tybalt and is banished from Verona.

The friar comes up with a plan so that Juliet does not have to marry Count Paris and can run away with Romeo. She takes a potion and takes the form of death. She is buried and Romeo is to save her and take her away. Romeo does not know the death is faked and goes to be by Juliet's side when he gives up his life to be with her.  

In the end the families stop the feud but at the price of their children's deaths.

I would recommend this play to others as it is a fantastic book and will keep you wanting to read on.

The main characters are Romeo and Juliet

The themes of the play are love and tragedy.

I thought that using the internet was very fun and I enjoyed it a lot. It was much quicker than writing and my wrist wasn't paining me for ages afterwards. I thought it was very handy since a have a computer at home as well as at school.

I really liked having my own blog. It was colourful and you could look at other people's reviews.

I loved being able to rear other people's opinions on books they have read and leaving comments on some pages and finding out more about the book they have read.

It would be brilliant if we could do another blog next year since it was great fun and enjoyable and you could make your own page and decide what colours you.

The name of the book is ‘Private Peaceful '.

The author is Michael Morpurgo.

I would give this book 10 out 10 because it was an exciting book, very interesting and it gives you a lot of information on what it was like during the First World War.

Tommo tells the story of his life during the First World War. He tries to remember what happened over those couple of years in terror and fright. He starts of going to school for the first time and meeting his teacher and principal. He remembers when he was younger and when he to work with his father woodcutting. He remembers the day his father died and it all being his fault. A tree had been falling down, but with such fright Tommo didn't move. His father pushed him away just in time, but the tree fell on him. Tommo never forgets that moment and always blames it on himself. He makes a friend in school called Molly. His older brother Charlie, Molly and Tommo become great friends and do everything together. They do everything together only until Charlie and Tommo have to go to fight in the war and everything changes.     

I would recommend this book to others because it is very good, interesting and I thing many people would enjoy it.

The main characters are Tommo, Charlie and Molly.

The themes of the book are adventure, death, friends and war.

This book is reality because it is like a diary entry, it all happened to Tommo; he is just remembering what it was all like.

The one book thet I would hope to have with me if I was stranded on a island would be, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, because I thought it was very interesting, enjoyable and sad. It was one of the best books I have ever read.
