The Arrival

This book has no words. The thing is, this book doesn't need them. The pictures tell a story, one of a man's struggle to fit into a new world with new languages and cultures, after having been sent there as an immigrant. Separated from his family, he tries to fit in and finds himself a small but homey apartment with an added bonus; his new pet. He meets others whom have left their countries as immigrants and listens to their stories...This book had no words, but it made a lasting impression on me...even stronger than the ones with words that I usually read...

Looking For Alibrandi

This book is about an Italian girl who has lived in Australia for her whole life, and now is attending a prestigeous Catholic all girls school. The book includes many problems she had, such as her single mom and her dad who just came back, who she had never seen before. It is a pretty good book and I reccomend it to anyone who likes reading realistic novels.

Romeo & Juliet

The first time I read this book I felt pretty sad, because the story is all about two people who love each other but then in the end gets killed. I also think that this book is very interesting because, the play is made by Shakespere and his plays are really good.

There's a boy in the girls' bathroom

This book is kind of a funny but sad at the same time. The main character is a boy which is a bully and never do his homework or study and that makes him stay back a year so he is the oldest in the year, but the stupidest. He is the kind of person which always lies to his mum and say that he is the best in class and he always got an A in class but his mum is about to find out the truth...
I actually like this book a lot because i know how he feels to be always left out and i really wants him to make friends.

Romeo and Juliet- First impressions

The moment I started this book i know that it is really hard to understand, since is in Shakespeare style. By the time i get to end i know that this book is tragic romance and i don't like this book because i don't really understand it.

romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet is a sad story because this story is based on two lovers which cannot meet because their family hate each other so they cannot meet and someone tells Romeo to love someone else but he doesn't do that. So to meet Juliet drinks a potion so she goes to Romeo and Romeo kills himself.

This is the prologue of the story mainly. I don't like this book the kite rider is easy and adventurous to read but this story is a script which looks hard to read. The words are a little complicated.

Romeo and Juliet first impressions

My first impressions of this book was that it was not that easy to understand what the prologue was saying since it was using shakespearean language. But by reading to page 18, i can tell that this story is about a tragic ramance which is not my favourite style of book.
