Scribbleboy

Last term, Year 5 & 6 were reading the book ‘Scribbleboy’. We all really enjoyed the book and we took part in a lot of Graffiti type things seens as the book was based about Graffiti. We never finished the book but it seemed like nearly everyone enjoyed it. It was a nice to try a different book this year.

‘Scribbleboy’ is based about Bailey Silk who transfers to a dull and dark town. He gets written a letter from Ziggy Fuzz who turns out to be his best friend. Ziggy shares secrets about the anonymous scribbler who shares his/her emotions threw Graffiti. Bailey was determined to find out who he/she was, and in the end he found out who had been scribbling all over town.

‘Scribbleboy’ was written by Philip Ridley and illustrated by David Wyatt. If interested, you can find the book on a few websites. It only cost £6.99.
