Rosalind Recommends....

Title - A Little Maid of Old New York
Author - Alice Turner Curtis

I recommend this book because it tells you about the times when the British occupied New York and about someone else's opinion.. 

Title - Brother Dustyfeet
Author - Rosemary Sutcliff

I recommend this book because it tells you about the life of a travelling player in Elizabethan England. 

Title - The Queen Elizabeth Story
Author - Rosemary Sutcliff

I recommend this book because it isn’t about the time we live in and it’s exciting.  It’s all about Perdita who wants to see the Queen. 

Title - The Six Bullerby Children
Author - Astrid Lindgren

I recommend this because the six children have all sorts of funny adventures. 

Alice Advises...

Title - Jo of the Chalet School
Author - Elinor M. Brent-Dyer

This is a book full of adventures and fun. Follow Jo Bettany and her chums in their second term at the Chalet School, which was started by Madge Bettany, Jo's elder sister. But will Madge Bettany soon become Mrs Madge Russell?

Anthony Asserts...

Book: Redwall
Author: Brian Jacques

This is the first book written by Brian Jacques, He has written a series of books which are all very exciting. The book is about an abbey full of mice, which get attacked by a fearsome rat called Cluny. The hero is called Matthias and the book tells how he transforms from a clumsy novice into the warrior of Redwall and eventually defeats Cluny in single hand-to-hand combat .The series is very enjoyable and I highly recommend this first title!
