Read our review of Pharaoh's Fate Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx by Joe Todd-Stanton (Flying Eye Books) Jacqueline Wilson wrote her first novel when she was nine years old, and she has been writing ever since. She is now one of Britain’s bestselling and most beloved children’s authors. She has written over 100 books and is the creator of characters such as Tracy Beaker and Hetty Feather. More than forty million copies of her books have been sold. This would make for a great movie, especially the scenes in the cellar and barn. I would definitely keep my eyes closed in some parts. Cannot wait to see what comes next from this author.

The Best Sleepover in the World - Penguin Books UK

Baca buku ini jadi ingat masa SD. Masa kita seru-seruan bareng temen. Dapat musuh. Dan suka iri-irian. Yah namanya juga anak kecil. ;D Everything changed that summer twenty years ago. From past to present, the monster had said that as children, no one would believe them. She was wrong. The monster had been taken way to prison. Now she was getting out. The monster was being freed, and they knew she or her son, Bill, would come after them for revenge—they were responsible for putting her behind bars. I also thought the vagueness in the ending...taking forever to find out who survived etc made the story stutter. The conclusion would have worked better being more simplistic and straight forward.

Retailers:

I think the whole premise would have worked better with 15 or 16 year olds rather than 12 year olds. It just didn't sit right with me at all. A moving look at friendship, sleepovers and siblings from the much loved, bestselling Jacqueline Wilson.

When it finally comes around to Daisy's birthday, after much hesitation, she does indeed have a sleepover at home and realises that she had no need to be so worried about having her friends around her sister. The Sleepover' is a chilling, unnerving read about a nightmarish situation. Sadly, the built up energy went nowhere and I was left disappointed.

I think telling us the exact events that happened a year ago, rather than just snippets would have really helped. I think we needed to understand Isobel more and if we saw the full event of what happened on that fateful day, a year ago, we may have had a better grasp on why she was the way she was. I understand that dropping snippets of information is a common storyline feature but I think it was harmful to the flow of the story here because that was information we required rather than just being interested in. This was quite good. My only real complaint was that the author released the information of that summer VERY slowly. On the other hand, it built suspense rather well. This author has a good writing style, and I will be watching for more of her books.It irks me when a title of a book doesn’t truly match the story - The Sleepover had me thinking there was a single event that took place that this story would be built around, it is not that way, and we are never really given the full picture but rather broken up pieces. This left me feeling very unsatisfied.
