Title: Alien at School
Author: Michelle Brown
Publisher: Black Cat Publishing
Summary: In a small town near Boston, Jennifer Dale, who was studying
in a high school and her friend, Dana thought that their new English
teacher, Mr Stone, was very strange because he could look at the sun
directly but would not feel shine. He always drank some green liquid at
recess so Jennifer and Dana decided to check it.
After a week, they discovered that Mr Stone was an alien and
he wanted to catch some students to the space and kill them. Therefore,
Jennifer and Dana would like to stop him from doing something wrong.
Finally, they were not successful because their classmate, Paul felt living
in the earth was so lonely so he decided to follow Mr Stone to the space.
Comment: After I read this book, I think this book is very interesting and
exciting because when Jennifer followed Mr Stone to go to his home, Mr
Stone nearly discovered her. While they were having English lesson, Mr
Stone always looked at Jennifer and Dana, so they thought that Mr Stone
had already known that they were doubting him and it made me feel so
afraid and excited.This book is an interesting and exciting tale. It shows
us something about the space and the image of an alien. What’s more, it
shows us some kinds of UFOs.
This story book has many beautiful pictures, such as, the
colorful UFO. This book provides many details, for example, there are
annotations of difficult words under the paragraph and lots of games
about the story at the back of the book so you can understand the story
better after playing the games. Therefore, I like this book very much.

Title: The Secret Garden
Author: Frances Hodgson Burnett
Publisher: Black Cat
Mary Lennox was a bad tempered and unattractive child who was born in India to
British parents who didn’t really care about her. Then a terrible disease killed her
parents and made her an orphan. She was then sent to an isolated country house in
Yorkshire, England. There she was mostly left alone by her uncle Mr. Craven, who had
been a widower for 10 years and still hadn’t recovered from the death of his wife. Mary,
under the charge of the housekeeper, Mrs. Medlock, spent most of the time with the
chambermaid, Martha. She learnt from Martha about a locked up and deserted garden
favoured by the late Mrs. Craven.
One day, Mary explored the ground and found the key to the garden. She
discovered that though the roses seem to be lifeless, some other flowers survived. Since
then she spent more time there every day with the help of Martha’s brother, Dickson,
who had a way with plants and wild animals. Mary herself, due to the new-found
interest with the garden, began to blossom and lose her sickly look.
Then one night, Mary discovered that her uncle’s son, Colin was hidden in another
part of the house since he was bedridden and hated strangers. When spring came, Colin
became jealous of Mary and Dickson’s time spending together in the garden. Then one
day Mary invited him to join them. They put him in a wheelchair and arrived at the
‘paradise’.
From then on, the three children frequently visited the secret garden and Colin
even started to learn walking slowly. Finally, Mr. Craven came home from Europe and
heard children’s voices near the secret garden. To his astonishment, he found his son
Colin chasing after Mary and Dickson around the garden and he won. Thus comes the
end of the story with Colin walking and Mr. Craven becoming happy again.
I think it’s a very touching story and a suitable one for young teenagers. It tells us
all about love and friendship, bravery and courage. From today’s point of view, the
background may be a bit old fashioned and the social status far beyond our
understanding. However, it will be a better development in our body and mind to read
these kinds of books compared with those violent and materialistic fictions among us
these days.

Title: The Wizard of Oz
Author: L. Frank Baum
Publisher: Macmillan Publishers Limited
Summary:
In this book, there are some main characters, such as Dorothy, a lion, a tin man,
a scarecrow, a wizard and a wicked witch. One day, the wind blew Dorothy to a magical
land called Oz . A good witch told Dorothy to follow the yellow brick road until she
reached the Emerald City. The wizard there could help her to get back home. On the
way, Dorothy met a scarecrow, a tin man and a lion before she got to the Emerald City.
They went with Dorothy because they wanted the wizard to help them too. The
scarecrow wanted a brain, the tin man wanted a heart and the lion wanted courage
because it was always scared of everything. They encountered many difficulties but
they solved them successfully !
They went to see the wizard after they reached the Emerald City. The wizard said
Dorothy could not go back home until she killed the wicked witch. But the wicked witch
1
caught Dorothy before she could kill her.
After Dorothy threw water onto the wicked witch, the witch melted and Dorothy
and her friends went back to see the wizard. They all got what they wanted. Dorothy’s
friends helped her to find her way until they met the good witch. The good witch helped
Dorothy to get home.
Comment:
After I read this wonderful book, I have some strong feelings which I would like
to share with you. I think the plot is extremely fantastic!! My favourite character is
extremely marvelous!!! My favourite character is Dorothy because she was kind
-hearted and helpful. Besides, she was very courageous as she killed the wicked witch
by herself. If I were Dorothy, I would not be so brave to kill the wicked witch. But now
this story changes me. If I meet some problems, I will be as brave as Dorothy and I will
not give up easily. Instead, I will find solutions to solve the problem.
I have learnt a lot from this story. I understand what love, friendship and team
work spirit are. I know teamwork is really important in our lives. Therefore, we need to
work with our friends. Every day, when we are in trouble, we need other people’s help.
Then we can seek help from our friends. Nothing is impossible. Also, when our friends
need help, we should try our best to help them because more people means, more power.
Friends are very precious so we should value them. In the story, if Dorothy had not
met the tin man, the lion and the scarecrow, she could not have found the way to go
home. Therefore, I will be understanding and caring to others. By doing so, I can meet
more friends. Also, as a good friend, I will help others and share my happiness and
sadness with them. Are you willing to be my friends?

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Roald Dahl
Penguin Group
Summary:
This book is about Charlie who liked chocolate very much but he could just
eat a bar of chocolate on his birthdays. A chocolate factory owner, Mr. Willy
Wonka, sent out a notice to allow five children to visit his chocolate factory if they
could find out the golden tickets which had been hidden underneath the wrapping
paper of five chocolates. Charlie bought a bar of chocolate with the money which he
picked up from the street. Charlie could visit the Chocolate Factory with the other
four. In the whole trip, almost all visitors disappeared due to different accidents
except Charlie. At last, Mr. Wonka gave Charlie his Chocolate Factory. Charlie
lived there with his family happily!
Comment:
I feel interested in reading this book because I like chocolates very much. I
always dream to have a chocolate factory which is similar to the factory in the story
that all things are made by chocolates, for example, the walls, the boats and the sea.
Meanwhile, I can sell these chocolates to earn money so that I will beome rich and
have a lot of money to buy a big house.
Another idea I want to present is that we should be disciplined. We should
follow the rules and regulations which are set up by others. This is a kind of respect.
I believe that the visitors disappeared because they did not follow Mr. Willy
Wonka’s orders. When we are at home, we should follow our parents’ advice.
When we are at school, we should follow the teachers’ instructions. When we are in
the society, we should follow the rules of the government. Then we will be a good
girl, a good student and a good citizen.
Summary:
The book is about a boy called Charlie Bucket and his
adventure in Mr. Willy Wonka’s Chocolate factory. Mr. Willy Wonka
gave out five golden tickets that were hidden in bars of chocolate.
Those children who got the golden ticket could take a trip to the
Chocolate factory and have a chance to get the large prize. Every
child wanted to go to the chocolate factory very much so they bought
a lot of chocolates in order to have a greater chance of getting a
golden ticket. At first, the children of four rich families got the golden
tickets because they bought large quantities of chocolates and Charlie
Bucket could not afford to buy so much chocolate for he was poor. He
was very lucky to pick up a coin on the road which he later used the
coin to buy a bar of chocolate that contained a golden ticket.
He started the trip to the chocolate factory, there were many
rooms inside the factory such as chocolate room, hair toffee room and
chewing gum room. Some children did not obey the rules and were
trapped. Charlie obeyed all the rules and remained polite throughout
the contest so he stayed as the only contestant eventually and got the
large prize, which was the whole chocolate factory! Charlie and his
family could move in and lived in the chocolate factory ever after.
Comment: Hurray! I really love this happy ending .All the naughty
children went home but only Charlie could stay. He was really lucky.
He just bought four bars of chocolate, but other children spent much
more than him, some even spent in hundreds and thousands!
My favourite character is Charlie. I think Charlie is a very polite
and obedient boy. He followed the instructions of Willy and didn’t
touch things that Willy (the bearer of the chocolate factory) did not
let him touch.
I really enjoy reading this book. The lively characters such as,
Willy Wonka, Charlie and Violet are amusing. The carefully
written and exciting storylines as well as those delicious sweets
supped in the factory really fascinated me.
If I were Charlie, I would not be interested in visiting the
chocolate factory because the book didn’t mention that the chocolate
factory had a toilet that it was too terrible!

Title: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
Author: C. S. Lewis
Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers
Summary:
This book is about four ordinary children Peter,
Susan, Edmund and Lucy .While they were playing in the
unused rooms of the old professor's house, they discovered
that the wardrobe in the house led to the magical land of
Narnia.
When Edmund went to Narnia and met the White Witch, who attempted to
bribe him with a sweet called Turkish Delight. She told him that she was Queen of Narnia,
who was childless but would like to adopt Edmund and made him become her heir. She
said he could return home to persuade his sisters and brother to come with him to Narnia,
where they would become part of the royal family as well.
Before Edmund returned, he had met Lucy in Narnia. Lucy told him the
White Witch was evil, but Edmund refused to believe her and said the word of fauns
couldn’t be trusted.
During their next visit, all four children went to Narnia. They began an
dangerous and exciting adventure to help Aslan fight against the queen. After a great battle
led by Aslan, the White Witch was defeated and dead. A large-scale celebration was held,
and the four Pevensies became kings and queens of Narnia.
Comments:
After reading this book, I have learnt that there should be trust between
sisters, brothers and friends. If we do not trust each other, there will be a lot of
misunderstanding or fighting, such as war.
I also know that evil will never win peace. We should not have wars in the
world because having wars will make more people die. If more people die, people will take
revenge. Taking revenge makes people become evil and greedy. That’s why we should not
have war.
In the future, I should trust others, be brave and think twice before I do
anything. I think this is really a wonderful and interesting book. If the full marks is ten , I
would give this book nine marks. I would also like to share this great book with all my
friends and family in order to let them know the importance of trusting others.

Title: The Twits
Author: Roald Dahl
Publisher: Penguin Group
Mr Twit and Mrs Twit had hairy faces. They always played some horrible tricks
on each other. They never bathed and they were revolting. They also hated
children very much! Once Mr. Twit painted some glue along the branches of his
tree and then went away. He wanted to trap some birds and used them to make
bird pie for supper. The next day, he had no bird pie but he found four boys
stuck on the branches. He played other tricks on monkeys and a Roly-poly bird.
Finally, the Roly-poly bird saved the monkeys from a cage. Then, they planned to
take revenge. They wanted to turn the Twit’s home upside down. Roly-poly and
other birds stuck Mr and Mrs Twit’s furniture on the ceiling and made all the
things upside down. When the Twits came back home, they found that the house
had been turned upside down. They were scared and they stood on their heads.
After a long time standing on their heads, they got shrunk.
I think the book is interesting. Mr Twit and Mrs Twit are greedy and they did
wrong things. They could have lived with the animals happily. I like the monkeys
and the Roly-poly most because they are clever. I dislike the main characters, the
Twits, because they are greedy and they hurt the animals. They are dirty because
they never bathed. I picked this book because the pictures of this book are funny
and the title is attractive. Besides, the writer of this book, Roald Dahl, is my
favourite writer. His works are fascinating, such as ‘Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory’. I love to read it very much. I think I will recommend the book to my
friends because it is funny and worth reading.

Title: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Author: Parragon
Publisher: Parragon
Once upon a time, there was a princess and her stepmother living in a castle. The
princess was called Snow white and she was very beautiful. The stepmother of
Snow White was jealous of Snow White’s beauty so she wanted to kill her. Snow
White ran away from the castle and she made friends with the seven dwarfs and
the animals from the forest. When the wicked stepmother knew that Snow White
was still alive, she was angry and made a poisonous apple. Snow White ate it and
then she fell down. All people were sad about Snow White’s death. After a few
months, there was a prince kissing her and she woke up. After that, all people
were happy and Snow White lived happily with the prince too. Although all of
the dwarfs missed Snow White very much, they wanted Snow White to become
happy and they wished Snow White a happy future.
The story of Snow White is famous. My favorite character is Dopey. He is one of
the dwarfs. He is cute and funny. Most of the people and animals love him very
much, including Snow White. Dopey always acts like a clown and he loves Snow
White very much. I love to read books about the princess so I picked this book.
Although this book is quite expensive, it is an English story book and then I
bought it. After I have finished reading this book, I would like to recommend the
book to my friends because this book is meaningful. This book tells us although
we should have a good and friendly heart, we shouldn’t belief others easily
because those people may lie to you or hurt you, just like the wicked stepmother
and Snow White. This story can tell us quite a lot of things. This book uses many
difficult words and we can also learn words from the book.

Title: The Return of the Native
Author: Thomas Hardy
Publisher: Belgravia
Clym Yeobright marries Eustacia Vye and Damon Wildeve marries Thomasin
Yeobright, but the two marriages are broken. Clym and Thomasin are cousins.
Wildeve and Eustacia are secret lovers. During Wildeve’s visit, Eustacia doesn’t
let Mrs. Yeobright (Clym’s mother) get into her home, because of Eustacia’s fear
for being discovered. Later, Mrs. Yeobright accidentally dies because of
snakebite on her way home. Then, Clym distances himself from Eustacia and
Eustacia escapes with Wildeve. However, they are both drowned. At the end of
the novel, Thomasin finally marries Venn who has long been in love with her.
Finally, Clym becomes an itinerant preacher.
I think the story is quite interesting. The confused tangle of lovers makes the
story complicated. And I think Estacia and Wildeve are very bad. It is because
they have already married with other people, but they still escape together. If I
own this interesting book, I will read this book again and again. But if the story
gets much more problems and conflicts, it will be much better. I will recommend
this story to my parents, relatives, friends, classmates and everyone I know
because I think they will like this book.

Title: We are different
Author:
Publisher Oxford University Press
The book is about a rich man who has a lot of money but he feels very lonely
because he does not have any friends. One day, he saw some children playing
with each other under his garden’s tree. He was jealous of them. He wanted to
ask them out and did not let them to into his garden, so he tried to cut down the
tree. Luckily, the rich man finally decided to keep the tree because he became the
children’s friend. He was touched be the children’s friendship. He did not feel
lonely forever.
I have learnt ‘friends’ are very important in our life. They can give us power and
energy when we are sad. We should not be like the rich man because he is too shy
to make new friends. In our daily lives, we always face new challenges. We
should learn to take the initiative to make new friends. I think this book is very
useful, so I picked this book. I would like to recommend this book to my friends
because it can let us know friendship is very important. Therefore, we need to
keep our friendship. Don’t let unnecessary arguments destroy our friendship.

Title: Esio Trot
Author: Roald Dahl
Publisher: Scholastic
This book is about a man, Mr Hoppy. He lived alone. Mr Hoppy loved a lady.
Her name was Mrs Silver so Mr Hoppy wanted to make himself a hero in Mrs.
Silver eyes but Mrs Silver gave all her love to her pet, tortoise Alife. The story
happened one day at Mrs Silver’s home and balcony. And at Mrs Silver’s
balcony, there was a small house for Alife. However, Alife is very small so Mrs
Silver wanted Alife to grow bigger so Mr. Hoppy cast a spell to make Alife bigger.
However, Mr Hoppy didn’t know how to do magic so he bought many bigger
tortoises to replace Mrs Silver’s one with them when Mrs Silver was out. Mrs
Silver was happy when she saw Alife becoming bigger. Finally, Mrs Silver and
Mr Hoppy fell in love and got married.
I think this story is quiet interesting because of the magical words Mr Hoppy
said were actually in the tortoise’s language! Quite fun, right? And the pictures
are beautiful such as those of Mr Hoppy and Mrs Silver. They look great in them.
I have picked this book because the cover is colourful and the tortoise is cute.
I will recommend the book to my friends because the story is not so long and is
more easy to read. This is good for some of my friends who are not very strong at
English.

Title: Charlie and the chocolate factory
Publisher: Puffin Books
About the book:
Charlie, the main character in this book lives in a poor family with his parents and
two pairs of grandparents. There is only one bed in their house. One day, Mr. Wonka
invites the people who buy the chocolate and get the golden ticket to his factory. His
factory is very amazing. No one has ever been inside, or met Mr. Wonka. Charlie is very
lucky! He has wont the gold ticket. That means he can have a trip to the chocolate
factory and meet Mr. Wonka. If you want to know what happens in the factory, try to
read this book!
Feeling after reading this book:
I have watched the movie before I read this book, Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory. I think it is a good book. It is because I think that it tells us something. This
book tells us not to complain about our life. Many people are poorer than us. Charlie
Bucket is a good boy. Charlie Bucket wants to have a chance to have a trip in the
chocolate factory. He knows that his family is poor but he does not complain. His
birthday present is only a bar of chocolate for each year. He hopes to have the golden
ticket in the bar of the chocolate but his dream has not come true. Although he is a good
boy, he has done something bad. He takes away the money he finds in the path and he
does not give it to the police. He goes to the shop, uses the money to buy the chocolate
one after another until he has found the golden ticket in the chocolate. Although he is
very poor, I don’t think that he should do this thing. I know that he is a poor boy but
this action is wrong. This money may belong to the other poor people will then be very
sad and disappointed.
I think this book is very interesting. It is because if you were Charlie and can have
a chance, you would think it is very fantastic. There will not be a real factory like this in
the world. There is no worker in this factory and it is like magic. There is a ‘chocolate
pool’. I hope there will be a real factory like this in the world and I can go inside to have
a swim or drink in this pool. This is not a very difficult book for us. It is both funny and
easy. I hope you will have a look or watch the movie.

Title: Esio Trot
Author: Roald Dahl
Publisher: Penguin Group
The main characters in this story are Mr Hoppy and Mrs Silver. Actually, they
were neighbours. The story’s plot was that Mr Hoppy had loved Mrs Silver for a
long time, but he was a very shy man, so he didn’t express himself to her. Mrs
Silver got a tortoise called Alfie, but it didn’t grow bigger. Therefore, Mrs Silver
asked Mr Hoppy for an opinion. Happily, Mr Hoppy said that he knew what to do
if she really wanted Alfie to grow bigger. So, Mrs Silver begged Mr Hoppy for
help .Then he wrote a piece of paper and gave it to her. The paper wrote, ESIO
TROT, ESIO TROT, TEG REGGIB REGGIB! EMOC NO, ESIO TROT, WROG
PU, FFUP PU, TOOHS PU! GNIRPS PU, WOLB PU, LLEWS PU! EGROG!
ELZZUG! FFUTS! PLUG! TUP NO TAF, ESIO TROT, TUP NO TAF! TEG NO,
TEG NO! ELBBOG DOOF! But after Mrs Silver read this article, she asked Mr
Hoppy what language it was. He replied that this was “tortoise language”, he
explained in this way, tortoises were backward creatures. Then, Mr Hoppy asked
Mrs Silver to whisper these words to Alfie three times a day. Although the tortoise
grew to twenty-seven ounces finally, it was not because of the “magic words”. It
was actually because Mr Hoppy changed the tortoise once a week and increased
the weight of each by two ounces every time. So, after eight weeks, the tortoise
became twenty-seven ounces. Fortunately, at last, Mrs Silver didn’t discover it, and
at the same time, Mr Hoppy got enough courage to express himself to Mrs Silver,
and they lived happily together forever.
After I read this book, I think this book is very funny and interesting. First,
because of the story’s plot, especially the “thing” which Mr Hoppy did for Mrs
Silver because Mr Hoppy loved her. Second, this story has a good ending, not like
Hamlet, in which all except 2 died. Also, I would like to share why I will choose this
book and write the report to you. It is because I like to read the books written by
Roald Dahl. I want to tell you one thing, the title “Esio Trot” actually means
tortoise, because this book is mainly about tortoises, and Mr Hoppy mentioned
that tortoises read backwards, so the title is “Esio Trot” This is the most funny
thing I find in this book, also I think the author is very creative.

Title: The witches
Author: Roald Dahl
The main characters in this story are a boy, his grandmother, and the Grand
High witch. This story is about a boy whose grandmother knows many things
about the witches. In the Easter holidays, the boy and his grandmother went to
Bournemouth and they lived in a hotel. Then they saw many witches there! The
witches turned the boy and a boy called Bruno into a mouse! Even they went
back to their home, Norway, the boy has not turned back to a boy. He and his
grandma design what they will do in the next few years. This is the end of the
story.
I believe that many people in the world are afraid of the witches. Witches
are very terrible. Do you agree? In this story, I know more about the witches. I
think the boy is very unlucky because he sees the witches when they are meeting.
After reading this book, I asked myself, what will happen if I see a witch? I think
it is impossible. I don’t believe there are really witches in the world. Anyway, this
book is good because the writer writes down how they boy sees the witches
clearly and vividly.

Title: Rainbow Magic Series: Flora the Fancy Dress Fairy
The book ‘Flora the fancy dress fairy’ is very interesting. It is one of the
rainbow magic series. I like this book because it is very funny especially the plot
of how goblins escaped after they stole things. This proves that they liked to do
bad things. However, Kristy fairy and Rachel fairy told lies but the goblins still
believed them. This proved that they were simple-minded creatures. I thought
goblins should not be so bad. They did bad things because they thought they
were right. They just wanted to get back the things they owned or protect their
rights.
The climax of this book is the ending. Jack Frost and his goblins were
invited to the magnificent fancy dress ball and no one blamed him for what he
had done before. He was very pleased and promised that they would not do bad
things anymore. Once again, I know that goblins were simple and easy to make
friends with.
I learnt form this book that fairies are not always right and goblins are not
always wrong. All the bad things done by bad people should have a reason
behind. I should analysis the bad things before I make my comment.

Teggs and Gipsy answered a call for help from a wrecked ship. However,
that
was a trap from some terrible T. rexes! They were locked up in prison and were
in danger of being eaten. Luckily, their friends Arx and Piggy tried their best to
help them. Piggy was also trapped but at last, Arx knew what had happened
eventually Piggy, Teggs and gipsy were saved at last.
My favourite character is Arx. He was so clever and calm that he could find
out what happened at last. Besides, he was such a good astrosaur that he cared
about his friends a lot and that he went into the T. rex kingdom to rescue his
friends.
I think this book is really touching. It tells us that friendship is very precious.
Also, this book is quite exciting. I feel relieved when Teggs, Piggy and Gipsy were
saved. I hope me and my friends’ relationship can stay and I hope we will be the
best friend forever. I will recommend this book to my classmates and friends. I
hope that they will like this book and recommend this book to others. I also hope
more people can read this book and do socialize with others.

Summary:
This story is about a girl and a boy who named Jack and Annie. One day
Annie saw a rabbit and thought that the rabbit was a sign of Morgan’s back.
So Annie and Jack followed the rabbit until it vanished in the magic tree house.
There was an enchantress called Morgan. Morgan gave them a riddle to solve.
Then the wind started to blow them. After that, Annie and Jack arrived at a
look empty and spooky’s town. Also, there were some tombstones too.
The riddle was……
“Out of the blue,
My lonely voice calls out to you.
Who am I?
Am I?”
But there were no human voice or any sounds.
Then they crept towards a building and there was a piano in a room.
Suddenly, the piano keys were moving but no one was there! They thought that
was a ghost playing the piano and they were scared about that so they went
out of the building.
After that moment, some cowboys passed the town and they said they had
to sell a beautiful horse. Jack and Annie were very upset so they wanted to
help the beautiful horse. Then, they met a man called Slim. Slim had a horse
called Dusty and it was the son of the beautiful horse. They wanted to pick
Dusty to see his mum again. Finally they were succeeded and Slim told them
about the riddle and the piano. At last, they knew the riddle’s answer
was----Echo.
After reading that story, I felt Jack and Annie were sp brave and confident.
If I were them, I would scare of the ghosts and I would not able to find out
the answer of the ghost and played the piano by myself. Also, I think I should
learn to be more brave too.

Comment:
I love this story very much. It talks about the adventurous journey of four
children. The story was very excited. The description about the character is
great. It makes the story come to live. In the story, my favorite character is
Aslan.I love it very much. When I first to read the story, I determined to see
the movie of this story. I think Aslan is even cool without the special effects. I
think his speech is meaningful and worthwhile. Also I think that it is very
important character in this story. It made them brave and taught them skills
to defeat their enemy. This story is very fun too. There is a continuation of
Narnia such as “The prince of Caspian”. All of them are good stories.

Title : Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
Author : Ronald Rahl
Illustrator : Joseph Schindelman
No. of pages : 210
Comment :
This story is about a good boy called Charlie Bucket. He loved
chocolate so much , he could not buy it because his family was poor . One day,
Willy Wonka, head of the biggest chocolate company, announced a contest that
there were five golden tickets hidden in chocolate bars and he sent them
throughout the world. Anyone who found the golden ticket first could visit
Willy’s factory. Charlie and four other naughty children found the tickets and
visited the chocolate factory. Those four children were so naughty and created a
lot of problems in different parts of the factory and they finally lost in the contest.
Charlie got the prize and became a successor of Willy Wonka's factory.
I think Charlie was a very good boy . When he found the golden
ticket , he didn’t immediately ask for his parents’ permission to get there
although he wanted to visit the factory so much. Instead, he asked for his
parents’ opinion . It showed Charlie was an obedient boy . I like this book very
much , because I was fascinated by Mr. Wonka’s chocolate factory. It was so
amazing and wonderful as well . I would really love to visit his factory if the
chocolate factory did exist!

書名： 天外魔蟲
作者：楊鵬
出版社：星(香港)出版有限公司
內容大要：這本書講述校園三劍客-楊歌、張小開，白雪三人的學校
來了轉校生阿星。他的行為古怪，校園三劍客最後發現阿星竟然是來
自一個一百光年外芸慧星。原來芸慧星正受一些魔蟲的攻擊，牠們還
有互相溝通的能力。校園三劍客和魔蟲對抗，那裏的總統也被殺害，
最後他們終於把天外魔蟲徹徹底底地消滅了。
讀後感想:我覺得這本書很好看和有趣。它的內容緊張刺激，雖然不
是正在坐過山車，但足以令我翻看了好幾次。內容中只有文字並沒有
圖畫，要靠讀者在重要的情節中聯想一下，我覺得緊張的情節是那些
魔蟲和校園三劍客各自攻擊的情況和結局。由於這是一本科幻的小
說，內容一定不是真實的事實，但作者描寫得繪影繪色，好像是弄假
成真的一樣，令讀者有些覺得好像真實的事。這本書的角色優點和弱
點全都在書中突顯出來，是不易做到的。我覺得它的容豐富，而且不
會令人覺得沈悶，有高低起伏。我十分喜歡看這本圖書，我把它介紹
了給朋友看。
