      This book is a lot like Lemony Snicket, because she keeps telling you not to read it, when you just can't stop yourself because it is so good.
      This book is about a girl called Cass who meets a boy called Max Ernest. What happens when the two children find a magician's diary, and have to fight Mrs Mauvais?
      To find out read the book. A cool thing about the magician's diary is that it talks about synaesthesia, which is a mixing up of the senses and it is real!  An example is a person who when we see black writing, they see rainbow writing like this. I think 8 to 12 year olds should read this wonderful book, because it is a bit too scary for small children, and a grown - up would think it is too childish.



Fire In The Pyramid. Artwork inspired by The Name of this Book is Secret. Constructed from a cereal box which was cut into a square with four equilateral triangles radiating off of it, joined by a tab on the edge of each triangle. Original design by Bellusaurus sui.

I think that 7, 8 and 9 year olds should read this book because it's a story for those ages and because of the moral which is to be brave and never give up.

I really liked this book. although it starts of a bit boring. it gets really atracting i could barely put it down.
It's about a girl named Eva Nine who lives on a different planet. her caretaker is a robot and she is to find out where other humans are.
Beestle the worst and skariest of all the monsters destroys her home.
Then she go's on amazing adventures getting a new friend on her way. But what happens when Beestle catches her.
This book is way better than Alice in wonderland and The wizard of oz.
