9.8★ As the tides sweep, and the moonlight shines down, the old man would sit on the cliffside, his rod in the ocean water, waiting for the fish to take the bait. “Alas!” He thought. “Why haven’t you read this classic book before? It’s pretty good after all!” “ It’s about the stories of me, an old fisherman, catching the largest fish I’ve ever seen, only to have in the ocean, just beyond sight, shamelessly mocking me as I see it in the ocean, too heavy to haul but to stubborn to go away… “ Honestly, this is a good book! The old man said it himself! (Read above!) 20/12/2024

9.7★ A mysterious return. An unexpected appearance. A new wave of crime. Sherlock had already solved the past and the present, before leaving. Is it really possible that he has come back, to truly change the future? Sherlock Holmes is back on the case, solving the more of this new perpetration in Britain? If that wasn’t enough, the book has a whole extra one in-His last bow. Like, that’s literally the name of the book.

9.8★ Venture through the world of Dexter, the 10-yr old child prodigy!He learnt to speak at the age of 12 min old! By the age of 5 months Procter Jr. can already solve crosswords faster than adult! What can’t he do! Well, actually-can he solve the mystery of the *cough* “teachers who have serious flatulence ”- ok, fine.

9.8★ “The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes” is a good book. That’s a simple man’s view. I’m not a simple man. I’m A nIne yeAr Old who is VERY EXCITED to introduce one of the few 9.8-9.9 books I have read! If you have read my previous book review, you will know that “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” was a really good book at a rating of 9.7, this book in the series was even better! The stories were upgraded by a notch, and at the end of the novel, oh, that cliffhanger makes me want to spend a £1000 on the next book! If you don’t know what the cliffhanger is, read the book now! For 9+ though, the book is a bit bloody. 01/11/2024
9.7★ “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes ”, is as many say, and I say as well, *takes deep breath* IS THE BEST CLASSICAL FICTION MYSTERY BOOK IN THE ENTIRE WORLD AND IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! Or, to put it in another, more sophisticated way, this set of short mysteries is a famous mystique detective novel, or informally put in a part of this book,”Whodunnit?” It is famous as of the intense writing, the suspense the unfolding of the plot to reveal a more sinister meaning. From an evanesce woman, to a man with 9 finger and a bloody, hacked thumb, to finding the mysteries, the unsolvable, and solving them too, Sherlock can do it all ! Sherlock is a detective who sees every detail, every detail he’s every seen, and examines every one of them. He’s a modest man, yet a cunning one too, with a feeble look but a dense interior. I find it amazing, how sly he can be. You walk into his room, and he can tell your age, what type of car you have, where you come from, and what your job is, and yet even more. The book itself-surprising! Yet the plot, the characters, the plan, the twist,*mwah*- it’s perfect. It’s even more shocking what you can do, what Sir Arthur Conan Doyle did, was through docile thinking, and writing. Arthur really made this book wondrous, enough to give it a 9.7★ ! 20/10/2024
8.8★ “The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind” is a book about a young African child who lives in a world of myths and monsters. All from reading a single book, he creates a magical thing called electricity. First he treats it as a toy. Soon, he’s famous, he’s elemental. He’s the boy who harnessed the wind. A story of triumph, a story of change, from a young boy to a man, from a poor African child to TED talker, this book is all true, and shows the story of the boy who harnessed the wind. 15/10/2024
8.2★ “One World Schoolhouse”, written by Salmon Amin Khan (founder and CEO of Khan academy), is a great book. For adults. Even for me, it is, how do I say this; very intense. It is mainly about the history of Khan academy, from how this famous, ten-million-lives-helped website all started from how Sal khan wanted to help his nephew get better at math, leading to the current Khan academy, yet doing all this by himself, this one man, Sal khan, had changed millions of lives. This book is like a history book for a website. I must admit, it is a good book, but it is going to be quite dull for people younger than a 13 yr old (make that 15 yr old). I really hope you don’t find this book boring, OK? 03/10/2024
9.3★ “Hatchet” is the adventure story of a young child named Brian Robeson. Thoughts of how parents’ divorce cloud his mind, when suddenly, his plane pilot suffers a heart attack and dies. How can he land the plane? And more importantly, with only the clothes had been wearing, and armed with a hatchet, how he survive to see another day? “Hatchet” is a heart-stopping story, with twists, turns, success and fails, you are interlocked with Brian throughout the story of how he survived against the wilderness. It is crucial to understand what Brian is doing, in the 2 months he is stranded, in his minded clouded from The Secret to an entire different realm of thoughts. 02/10/2024
7.7★ “When You Trap a Tiger” is a book based on Korean folklore. It is about a girl, a young girl, who believes she is haunted by an imaginary tiger. Yet the hauntings get worse. One day, she can no longer keep her secret. She bursts into her halmoni’s room, explaining the haunts. Yet then, and only then, halmoni explains the true reason why she is being haunted. Or should I say, why she is cursed. It is an interesting book on making friends, losing friends, and listening to the stories. The cursed stories, the ones of darkness, to heal the ones on the brim of the void. never trust a tiger. 05/10/2024
9.4★ “Charlotte’s web” is about a little spider named Charlotte and a young pig named Wilbur. Charlotte tries to save Wilbur from his oncoming end: bacon. A young child named fern loves Wilbur, and is the only child who can hear the animals in the barn, including Wilbur. This book influences the reader. The book is about adventure and miracle, pleasure and pain, life and death, and time. The book itself is miraculous, not to mention the illustrations. And, for a book, it is just about perfect. 02/10/2024
8.5★ “Stuff Matters” is a book about matter. From how razor blades work, to crafting a samurai blade, to even how sky scrapers are built today! It is slightly dull, not that “ yawn-teacher-i-need-to-go-pee” type of dull, I just mean it isn’t as interesting as liquid rules, another book made by the same author. As for me, I’ve actually read the book a long time ago, just before I first read liquid rules. I didn’t understand anything. I just thought, “Bro, ‘dis isn’t fiction! BOOORING.” Now I find it quite a lot more interesting, as I hope the same will happen to you!! 26/09/2024
9.2★ “Liquid Rules” is a book about liquids! From liquid helium’s superfluid viscosity to how it can be used in MRI machines, to how all life on earth was based of a single liquid. It sucks out all the juicy details from a boring, ol’ textbook, like some sort of amazing textbook-pire, then converting it into an interesting book for youngsters . As for me, I’ve actually read the book a long time ago, but I never treated it as a fun book. I just felt like my dad was forcing me to read the book. Only now, 2 years later, I realise how my dad was helping me, giving my early mind an early boost! 19/09/2024
9.2★ PONY is a beautiful book, a story of Silas Bird, a young 12-yr old who is on a mission to find and rescue his father from a notorious counterfeiting ring. Half way through, he meets an old Marshal who just so happens to be chasing the same counterfeiting ring as Silas. Silas is no normal human. He is supernatural being — he has the ability to see the souls of dead people……………… I like the way this book is written; full of suspense, details, and cliffhangers, always making the reader want to read on. It includes the character’s emotions, making the book ever more intense, swallowing you in the book. Many times I felt like it was the end of the story, before the storyline flips and I am once again submerged into PONY. I have read many fascinating books before, but this one, this PONY, is honestly one of a kind. I highly recommend it for all young minds who like books. Yet there is a lot of bloodshed, so there would probably be an age limit of 9+. 03/09/2024
9★ The wonderful adventures of nils holgerson is a very ingenious story about a young kid named nils turned into an elf by an elf king. After being turned into an elf, he rode on his goosey gander into a flock of wild geese living with them for His whole time as an elf. The story has many twists and turns. For example, when Smire fox nearly captures all of the wild geese, about to pounce , brave nils alerts the goose , and later smire gets expelled from the country . And the greatest twist of all was at the end , where Akka reveals what she thinks is the only way for nils to be turned back into a human: ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ The story is very dramatic and also has quite a few life lessons in it, hidden underneath a storyline. In the middle few chapters of the book, the story line is steady, but at the front and back of the book, the storyline is like a ro!!ercoaster .There truly is a lot of spirit in those pages. I feel like I can relate to a few scenes in the book. Like when Nils meets the goosey gander he feels unsure, yet the longer he stays with it, the closer he is, until one day they are separated, only to be reunited. It’s similar to me and my mum’s relationship: we are close, yet when we have a fight we separate, yet when we reunite we are closer then before. Recommended for 9+. 28/08/2024
9.1★ “Minecraft: The Voyage” is an adventure story about a young man named Stax. He has a normal life until one day, everything changes. Can he survive out in the wild, outside the safety of his long gone house? Though the story line may suggest this book as an adventure story, but this book actually has a very basic moral: Living an easy life is hard, if you don’t try hard, life will make you have to try harder. 01/09/2024
