Belle the birthday fairyBelle the birthday fairy, by Daisy Meadows

Belle the Birthday Fairy is by Daisy Meadows. I tell you, it is a five star book! I like the end bit when Belle flicks her wand and makes a part of the bakery spotless!

InkheartInkheart, by Cornelia Caroline Funke

In Inkheart a strange and mysterious person called dustfinger comes and turns the lives of Mortimer(Mo) Folchart, Meggie Folchart and Elinor Loredan. In this book Mo’s voice can bring any story book character out of their stories. Capricorn a very dangerous enemy read out by Mo’s very own voice forces him to read out an even more dangerous enemy… THE SHADOW!

The tales of Beedle the Bard is a story book mentioned in the ‘Harry Potter’ series. The book has stories well known in the wizarding world of Harry Potter and Professor Dumbledore makes notes after each story. I would recomend this book to Harry Potter fans of all ages.

Harry Potter and the goblet of fireHarry Potter and the goblet of fire, by J. K. Rowling

Harry Potter, a young boy with the world on his shoulders is a real hero in this story. I would say it is one of the best books of the Harry Potter series. J.K.Rowling did a great job on this novel.

Rose by Holly Webb is awesome. It’s all about a young house maid called Rose who appears to have magical powers.All Rose wants to be is a normal house maid earning her keep but her masters’ apprentice doesn’t think she should waste her talent on silly housework.
