Indie Kidd


Title: Indie Kidd How to be good (ish)
Aurthor: Karen McCombie
Illustrated by: Lydia Monks

I would rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
I would say  its for 9+ readers or maybe a little younger.
 I feel this book is for the younger reader, and it is best suited for girls as most of Karen McCombie's books are.


There is a series of these books, and I think this is the first book in the series, i think there are 11 indie kidd books so far ( i think this is correct)

This book is about Indie trying to find her talent, she doesn't think she has one, so with the help of her friends she finds out what she is good (ish) at. This book is the one when Indie first meet's DIB (Dog In Black).
There are some lovely pictures in the book, which help you picture the story and make you smile.
 The reason i only gave this book 4 out of 5 stars is because I did find myself getting a little bored in places,but i read it through to the end and I'm glad I did as the ending is very sweet (but I won't tell you, because it would spoill it).

Lizzie Zipmouth

 

Title: Lizzie Zipmouth.
Author: Jacqueline Wilson.
Illustrated by: Nick Sharratt.

I'd give this book 5 out of 5 stars!!
And I'd recommend this book for ages 9+
and I'd highly recommend it for any Jacqueline Wilson fan!

I've really enjoyed this book. This is now one of my favourite book's by Jacqueline Wilson.
I love the relationship between Lizzie and her step-great gran because they get on so well <3 .
The ending is quite SHOCKING  to me (i won't tell you and spoil it, you'll have to read it to find out ). You do feel the emotions of the characters throughout the book aswell,which i really like, and I feel Jacqueline Wilson is especially good at this.
This is a great,clever and brilliant book and I'd read it over and over.
