Books!

Hello! How are you all? I've been sick with a cold and bad cough and our weather here is really cold, for us anyway! 20 degrees! but i'ts been raining and very dull which really reminds me of being in England! sort of cosy!! So been sitting at home under my dunah watching the Disney chanel!! I thought I would tell you about some really awsome books that you might like to read. Have you ever heard of an author named Jacqueline Wilson? Well, if you haven't already there are some of her books I think you'll enjoy, (Her books are more for girls than boys, but a book of hers boys might like to read would be cliffhanger.) I'm sure that you'll love all her books but my favourites are the dare game, clean break, diamond girls and the 'girls series', for older girls and For younger children I would recommend, the cat mummy, the mum minder and glubsey me. They are truly awsome books and she is a brilliant writer! If you want to find out even more, head to http://www.jacquelinewilson.com/ !!! !!! Hope you enjoy them!

See you all soon!!
