Eragon


By: Christopher Paolini
*****
I've just finished reading an excellent book titled "Eragon" It's about a fifteen year old boy Eragon who lives on a farm with his cousin and his stepfather. In just a day his life is shattered, his stepfather died when two evil murders " The Ra'zac" have come to search for a blue stone and Eragon found the blue stone in a forest, but Eragon doesn't know that the stone he had found is actually a dragon egg. While he was asleep his dragon egg hatches and a blue dragon emerged from the egg. He named his dragon "Saphira". Now he will adventure through cities, a vast dessert and mountains so tall they reach up to the clouds and above.

My favorite part is when Eragon killed the evil shade in the end. I think Christopher Paolini uses great vocabulary in his books. Eragon is the first book in the sequel followed by "Eldest" then "Brisingr". I wonder when the 4th book of the sequel comes out.

Charecterization


Richard Tulloch has done a really good job on his 3rd book of the series about Brian Hobble who is the main character and the protagonist.
While the opposite is Kelvin Moray, but something about Kelvin stood out to me on the 3rd book on page 163. Kelvin says, "The whole play's a blast isn't it? Thanks for getting me into it." and Brian replies, "Any time Kelvin." So when Kelvin used to be an antagonist he's now a protagonist.

In the book Lancelot Cummins is a really famous author, but I think he has a fear of talking in front of any group of people and yet he's so famous! Brian's favorite author is Lancelot Cummins.

Nathan Lumsdyke ( The class nerd) likes Shakespeare and classical music but his genre has just changed on the top of page 172 when he says " actually, as well as being funny 'Cyberno' actually contains a lot of interesting ideas such as war". So Nathan has completely changed his interests.
The next book is titled "Scary Stuff!" and I think there will be a lot of changes in the characters too!

Awesome Stuff !


By: Richard Tulloch

*****
This is the 3rd book in the series about Brian Hobble's strange life. I think this book is really exciting that's why I gave it an awesome rating. Brian Hobble thinks he has a second evil brain he writes excuse notes to all of his friends and in return they have to join the play they're doing called "Cyberno". At first Brian thought it was a really boring, but it turned out to be really fun after all. In the end Brian has to tell the truth in front of the meanest principal in Garunga District School they ever had!!!
I recommend this book to all ages and I think you have to read the first book of the series then you can understand the book better. The second book is "Freaky Stuff" and the next book after "Awesome Stuff" is "Scary Stuff!!!" In this book Brian looks a bit unusual, his nose grows so big like pinocchio's!

RED ALERT RED ALERT !!!! EARTHQUAKE HAS OCCURED IN INDONESIA!!!

When Indonesia's in the Ring of Fire, Indonesia is bound to get earthquakes all the time. This was my first situation I've been in an earthquake!! It occurred on 2/9/2009 which was yesterday. The epicenter of the earthquake was 40 kilometers of the coast of Jasikmalaya, it measured 7.4 on the Richter Scale.



There were Tsunami Warnings near Jasikmalaya. In school we saw a big snake hiding for cover even before the earthquake had started because some scientists say that animals have a sixth sense to,sense small tremors before the earthquake so they know when the earthquake starts they will be safe! Unfortunately for us humans we don't have 6th sense.

Some of my friends were in the Library and they felt really dizzy!! Then they heard teachers shouting "EARTHQUAKE,... EARTHQUAKE!!!!!" I wonder if CNN or BBC has found out how many people are injured or dead. I checked on the news yesterday they said that they think about 40 people were reported dead. One other shocking thing I heard on the news is that they expect another earthquake to occur very soon!!!!!

Weird Stuff


RICHARD TULLOCH
*****
I have just finished a book titled Weird Stuff it's a really good book and I recommend it to anyone. It's about a boy named Brian Hobble and he has a brother named Matthew. One day in English Class a visiting author has come to their school, the author's name is Lancelot Cummins he's written many books and comics about aliens,zombies and monsters!! All the boys in his class including Brian read his books. Lancelot Cummins asks everyone to write a simple story, but Brian's pen is out of ink so he asks Nathan Lumsdyke( the class nerd) lends Brian an easyflow pen once the pen made contact with the paper Brian started writing, once time was up he checked how many pages he filled up... 4 PAGES!!! he read what he wrote it was like the pen was in control of his brain and the story he wrote was an embarrassing love story, the same thing happens in a science test too!!! He also has a major crush on this girl named Cassie Wyman she was impressed with Brian's work and they talked to each other more often and shared their stories. While the other boys make fun of him

Brian also likes to play sports too... soccer and cricket. When Brian was playing the semi-final soccer game the score was a tie 0-0. In the last few minutes of the match Brian had the ball he was running to the goal Kelvin Moray( Brian's worst enemy) was saying "pass the ball to me BRIAN"! But Brian wanted to score the winning goal but he tripped and fell down on the grass. The referee blew his whistle for Brian to take the penalty! This was it, if Brian scored they would be in the FINALS! Brian kicked the and went into the goal!! Brian had scored the Winning GOAL!!. Everyone was celebrating and cheering!!

There's also a sequel to this book the next book is titled... Freaky Stuff!!!

My Favourite Author is... J.K ROWLING!!



As you know everybody knows the famous J.K Rowling who has written the awesome Harry Potter series. J.K ( Joanne Kathleen) Rowling was born in July 1965 at Yate General Hospital in England and grew up in Cheepstow,Gwent. J.K Rowling was inspired of the idea of the Hogwarts Express leaving from King's Cross Station( which is a real train station in London) when her train was delayed. If you have read the Harry Potter series there's a thunder bolt scar on his forehead, so why was it a scar on his forehead? Well because when J.K Rowling was young she and her sister got into BIG fights one day J.K Rowling through a battery at her sister and now there is a scar above her left eye. Their were lots of neighbors near J.K Rowling's there was a sister and a brother who's surname is "Potter", the brother's name was Harry and his mother told the press that Harry and J.K Rowling used to dress up as witches or wizards.
J.K Rowling started writing the H.P series during a delayed Manchester to London King's Cross train journey and during the next five years, outlined the plots and started on the first novel. After a few months J.K Rowling gave birth to a daughter named Jessica then Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone was published in June 1997.
