Brindabella by Ursula Dubosarsky

Picture
​Reviewed by Archie C. CLPS
Bang, Crack, Bash! This is all he could hear. Pender could only do one thing, stand and stare at the poor kangaroo. Laying there lifeless, blood pouring out of its neck. Then, a sudden jolt came from its pouch. Suddenly a joey’s head pops out... this is a story of an unbreakable friendship. It’s a sad story but it has a life lesson, that we all should respect nature. I really enjoyed the book because I love animals and native animals of Australia.
This is for ages 12+ and I give it 10 out of 10.

The Adventures of Captain Underpants by Dav Pilkey

Picture
Reviewed by Jesse O'N. APS
George and Harold always prank their teachers, but this time they have gone to far. They had gotten into a heap of trouble with their principal, Mr. Krupp. It was just a normal day when George and Harold were pulling off as many pranks as they could. They had ruined a football game from their pranks but their principal, Mr. Krupp, had seen them do it all on a security camera. But the boys didn’t want to get in trouble so they begged him so that he wouldn’t show it to the parents. Mr. Krupp said okay but only if they did a list of things every day until they went to high school. But they didn’t want to do that for another two years, so George looked online for something that would make him change is mind and it was a hypno-ring. The next day George and Harold walked in with huge grins on their faces and when they got called to Mr. Krupp’s office, and they had the chance, they said look deeply into this ring and you will see a picture, so he did. They said, "You are getting sleepy'" and suddenly he said, "I am in your command masters." They said whenever someone clicks their fingers you will transform into Captain Underpants and that’s how it all started. I loved this book because it was very funny. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants a laugh. I rate this book 10/10.
