The finger eater

The finger eater
The finger eater is a novel book by Dick-King-Smith and it is about this monster that is called Ulf. Other people around the village are scared of him because their middle fingers were bitten off by Ulf. He also has very sharp teeth so when he goes up to someone he just bites their finger off. Ulf’s trick is, when nobody heard of him he goes to people pretending to shake hand but then he eats their finger and goes back to his hole where he lives.

My favourite character is Ulf because I like monsters
and he is small like me and he has sharp teeth, the only thing I don’t like about him is the color of his skin.


I recommend this book 6-8 because because it is a junior novel and some kids at a younger age can be scared.

Charle and the chocolate factory

Charlie and the chocolate factory
The book Charlie and the Chocolate factory was written by Roald Dahl. This book is about a kid named Charlie Bucket who has a very poor family, but is very kind. Willy Wonka the most amazing inventor in the world has created a chocolate factory, how does Charlie know this because every night he goes to his grandpa Joe, grandma Josephine, grandpa George and grandma Georgina tell him stories also grandpa Joe the oldest one had been telling Charlie the most stories.


My favourite part is when Charlie goes to a candy store and gets a chocolate bar and when he gets it he finds a golden ticket (golden tickets were hid around the city) also according to the book Willy Wonka had hid golden tickets around the city. He said if you get one you can come to the chocolate factory and only a few were hidden.

ANZAC

ANZAC


Anzac is an acronym word meaning Australia new Zealand army corp (A.N.Z.A.C). it is the day when the soldiers of New Zealand and Australia fought in the world wars. The war started April 25 1915. We are  also celebrating Anzac for the 100 years since our servicemen fought in wars.
We commemorate to thank and remember the soldiers, for fighting for our nation . Although they risked their lives to protect our land and people we should be truly thankful by celebrating Anzac Day.  
we also celebrate the dawn festival to commemorate Anzac. we also wear a special flower called a poppy. We wear a poppy because it is the main flower of Anzac. if we are very thankful we can make Anzac related foods like cakes and cookies.
The dawn celebration is a type of festival that starts at 4.00am and 6.00pm. in the celebration the people are taken to the war battle combat museum. When the festival is about to end people come up and say speeches and they also pray for the soldiers who died in the wars
