Book Review - Awful Auntie

Awful Auntie is a book written by David Walliams, and the illustrator is Tony Ross. The one main character is young Stella Saxby, who has an awful auntie called Alberta. Her parents had just passed away and she didn’t know. So one dark night, her aunt Alberta showed up telling her the news. Just because her aunt is mean doesn’t mean she can’t pull tricks back! It’s a very good book, with some funny quotes! It’s a great book with a good storyline and as you’re reading it you can picture the scene perfectly! My favourite character is Wagner, who is Alberta’s owl because he starts off helping Alberta, but the moves onto Stella’s side to help defeat Alberta. In my opinion, I don’t think Wagner liked Alberta in the first place! I would recommend this book to 8 years old or over or if your a stronger reader but younger, give this book a go! This is a book that is very child-friendly and has a selection of pictures.
The number of pages:413.

Genre: child fiction.

Fun Fact: this is the seventh book that David Walliams has come out with!

Harvest Festival and The People's Kitchen

The upcoming event at school is the Harvest Festival. On Tuesday 9th October, some of the pupils went to the People's Kitchen in Newcastle. Every year our school works alongside the People's Kitchen for the Harvest Festival. Everyone brings in donations to put on the harvest table. The People's Kitchen creates a wish list - so that's where we get the ideas from. The day after the Harvest Festival, the People's Kitchen come and collect the food and sleeping bag donations. We learned about the People's Kitchen - how it started and all sorts of other interesting facts about it. We went with Mrs Behan and Ms Kendal. We all really enjoyed it I think that our favourite part was the Greggs jam doughnut at the end!

Can’t wait for the harvest festival and for the speech hope to see you there!
