Jeremy thatcher dragon hatcher - Blog Post

The Genre of this book is a fantasy because he has to raise a dragon

If Howard Morton and Freddie the Frog Killer were trying to hold you down so that Mary Lou Hutton could kiss you, you might run as fast as Jeremy Thatcher did the day he stumbled into Mr. Elives' Magic Shop. And if you stumbled into that strange shop, you, too, might be asked to make a choice. What would you buy? The Chinese rings? The Skull of Truth? Or the dragon's egg? And if you did buy the dragon's egg, what would you do when you found out you were supposed to hatch it?

I like this book because I love fantasy books and this is a fantasy book.

Edward Tulane Drawing

Kiwi Kids News - Upside Down House

Everybody has heard of an upside down cake, but what about and upside down house?

A house in Shanghai has an upside down house instead of a flat one that drew hundreds of visitors to it. They had people walking on the ceiling and taking photos near upside down chairs and sofas. People said that it was strange walking on the floor that sloped inwards to ward the centre and people came out feeling a little bit strange and a little bit dizzy.

(This is the upside down house.)

A rocket in my pocket - Personal Responce

A rocket in my pocket is a book about rhymes and having fun here are 2 of the rhymes in the book:


I once had a dog.
That had no sense.
He ran round the house
And barked at the fence.



When the donkey saw the zebra

He began to switch his tail.
"Well I never!" said the donkey,
"There's a mule that's been to jail."


My favorite Character is the zebra because he has stripes.

Something that snake and lizard is about is:
Snake and Lizard are two very good friends that have the odd row and get angry with each other.  Snake and lizard are helpers and they help people that are in need.

The Terrible Thing That Happened to Barnaby Brocket - Personal Responce

The terrible thing that happened to Barnaby Brocket


The genre for this book is an adventure because Barnaby Brocket goes around the world and meets lots of exciting new people along the way.

Here is a summary for The terrible thing that happened to Barnaby Brocket:

There is nothing unusual about the Brockets.

Boring, Respectable and proud of it, they turn up their
 noses at anyone strange or different. But from the
 moment Barnaby Brocket comes into the world,
 he defies the law of gravity - and FLOATS.

One day, the Brockets decide enough is enough.
They never asked for a weird abnormal, floating child.
Barnaby has to go ...

My favorite person in this book is Captain W.E. Johns Barnaby's Master because he is the only animal in the book and I love animals
