A small group of children from years 5 and 6 are reading the shortlisted books for The Leeds Book Awards.
After they have read each book they post a review on the Leeds Book Awards website; this is what Manya said about Beetle Boy:
“I really liked this book because it has been written really well. It is a real spine-chiller!”
Manya gave Beetle Boy 5 out of 5 and now plans to read Invisible Inc. by Steve Cole.
Jasmine read Cogheart…..
“I found this book creepy and didn’t particularly enjoy the theme of the book however I did think it was well written and there was good vocabulary”.
Jasmine gave Cogheart 3 out of 5 and now plans to read Beetle Boy by M. G. Leonard.
