8. Book Recommendation
I think that everyone should read this book and if you can’t read then you should get your parents to read it to you. Everyone will like it and if you want a really good book to read then you should read it because you actually feel like your there and it’s a really good felling. It will just blow your mind away. If it was a nominee for the children’s book award it would win. Try it, I promise you will love it!
