Wonder

Hallo everybody,
 Here's another book review on the book Wonder. Even before I read the book, I knew it was a big thing. Everyone in my school and class had heard of it. This book was constantly recommended to me by others so I finally went and issued it from my school library. (someone had always borrowed it.)
I didn't know what to expect, but I still got it. Wonder is an amazing story which contains the message that one should not judge others by their face. Here's a summary:
Wonder is a heart-touching story about a boy named August Pullman, who has been born with facial differences and starts going to school for the first time. It's not easy at all, but with new friends, Auggie might just pull through.

This book is written in the disguise of different people in the story, each telling their own side. The different stories by each character really help you understand who did what and why they did it. R.J. Palacio is an amazing author who writes simple words but his stories contain important messages. I can totally see why so many people like this book and recommend it. I strongly recommend it too.

Rating on the Peanut Meter: ★★★★
Au Wiedersen (sorry about the spelling),

All Four Stars

Hey again, It's Peanut again, reviewing a second book. It's called All Four Stars. This book was recommended to me by my best friend, A.G and I borrowed it from her. (I had, in fact, gifted it to her in the first place without knowing.*) This book explains the life of a wanna-be chef, Gladys Gatsby. By the age of 11, she develops a passion and talent for cooking. Unfortunately, after a horrendous incident, she is banned from the kitchen forever. However, by pure accident, Gladys sends in a paper for an essay writing contest (that is not the accident) but her paper reaches the hand of the editor who then employs Gladys to be the new food critic for her newspaper. Now, Gladys has to sneak into the brand new restaurant Classy Cakes, to write a review. Can she do it? Introducing All four Stars, a fun-filled story and a must read for all those from the age of 9-12. I really think this is one of my favourite books so far. Gladys is a remarkable and likable character who ...

The Shy Supergirl

Hi everyone! This is my 1st book review on The Shy Supergirl, as the title already tells you. This book is not a 'You have to read it or else you'll go crazy' but it is nevertheless good. It has an interesting backstory, a girl who hates Hindi homework and a SUPERHERO! If you ask me, this book is perfect for those between the age of 7-9. I found myself wishing it would go on. I feel Mrs. Shabnam Minwalla has done a really good job and the illustrations by  Tanvi Bhat really brighten up the story, even if they're black and white. In this story, the main character, Nina, is just the sort of superhero who you would like to be, and you can tell this is going to be a short, but sweet story. No, I'm not like those people who go all lah-di-dah over books because they review them.( I'll have you know that the publishers of duckbill have not sent me this. I had it at home) These are my honest opinions. Here's a summary of the book: Meet Nina, the average 9 yea...
