Book Circle Friends: Book Reviews!


The Witches” By Roald DahlBook review by Sarah Corneau, age 10.
Genre: Fiction/ Fantasy
Yes, I recommend this book. The book made me think and wonder all through the book. I was in shock during the book and I had to re-read it to really think if I read it right!

“Comet in Mooninland” by Tove Jansson
Book review by Zoe Kaplan, age 9
Genre: Fiction/Fantasy
The book inspired me and made me feel like someone grabbed me
and pulled me in to read more and more! It was very exciting, but a
little scarey. I love this book, it might look a little weird, but it was great!
I recommend this book.
