Well, the first thing is that I've created a Readalot anthem, here goes:
We will, we will, Read a lot, read a lot (Repeat).
You've got a book in your face, no disgrace. Tossing your books all over the place! Singing...
We will, we will, read a lot, read a lot! (Repeat)
(Apologies to the band, Queen).
Anyway, Book and Author of the week are... The Twins at St Clares and Holly Webb!
The Twins at St Clares is the first St Clare book in the series. Enid Blyton wrote four in her series but sadly passed away. So like with the Malory Towers series, Pamela Cox carried them on. Ok, back to the book.
The book is all about two twin sisters who are rather spoilt and stuck up. Their parents send them to a boarding school called St Clares. They are not happy and don't want to go there. But soon they realise that St Clares well... rocks! They learn not to be horrid and on the the way, they get up to lots of
exciting games and feasts and trouble! Below are the O' Sullivan twins!
Holly Webb is a fantastic writer that has written many books. One of her books is called 'Rose' and is based on magic and adventure. Webb is not just gripping, but a real writer. You may be thinking, "What?! We already know she's a real writer!". I don't mean it like that though.
To me, a real writer is someone who can make kids stop... close their eyes and imagine being in the book or another world.
And she is a really writer in every single way :)
Character Profile:
Name: Mr Stink
Which book are they from: Mr Stink
