“
Farm Boy” By Agus G. This book really touched my heart because it is full of joy and it teaches you that you never have to give up, it doesn’t matter if you are not the best, it is about making your best effort. The story is about a teenager that visits his grandpa’s farm and grandpa tells him the story of the old tractor they had in the farm. He won it in a hay plough competition. Grandpa competed with 2 horses and Harry Medlicott with his tractor. Grandpa said that if he lost he would give all the hay he got in the year, but if Harry lost, Harry would give the tractor to grandpa. Who will win? Will grandpa lose everything? If you want to known the end, read it! I personally loved the book because it teaches you to always work hard for what you want, like Michael Morpurgo does.

“Born to Run” By Trinidad
Michael Morpurgo brought us this time the amazing book of “Born to Run”. Michael was Born in the year 1943, he is known for his “magical storytelling”. He has won three times the Prix Sorciere. This story starts with Patrick, a common boy of city who was going to school just like another common day in his daily life. But he didn't know what lucky thing was going to happen that incredible morning. He was walking down the channel ( that was Patrick´s common way of going to school) when suddenly he saw a giant bag moving desperate in the channel. The curiosity brought him to swim through the channel and grab that mysterious bag that made him have restless feelings. He opened it and … saw four charming puppies! Since that moment he knew who was the one, that little greyhound with dark black eyes and bright yellow fur became his favourite. Soon he decided to name him Best Mate. Best Mate and Patrick grew together, became best friends… However a mysterious man would separate Patrick and Best Mate… Would Patrick see Best Mate again? I think this is a gorgeous book because it is a story of friendship and adventure. I basically recommend this book for the people that like animal books or friendship stories. I will recommend this book for children 11 years old or more
because this masterpiece had complex vocabulary to understand but interesting to read … this book could become one of your favourites on your shelf. If you like “Born to Run” I will recommend the spectacular award winning book “Kensuke´s Kingdom”.

Kensuke's Kingdom By Natalia P.
Up on an island in the Pacific, Michael tries to survive on his own with his dog. With no food and no water he curls up to die. The next day he wakes up with a plate of fish, fruits and a bowl of water. Is Michael alone? Sometimes Michael Morpurgo writes about his life, like when he met a japanese man once that was called Kensuke. He used the name for one of the characters of this book. The story also talks about war. He was a soldier too, but he didn't like war. . I think this book is for a kid who is 10 or 11 year old because it has adventure, hope, animals, things for children that age.
