The magic school bus : inside the human body, by Joanna Cole ; illustrated by Bruce Degen
This is a very educational book. I learnt tons about the human body. Despite this being an educational book it is still a good story with lots of humor and a great plot!

The magic school bus : lost in the solar system, Joanna Cole & Bruce Degen
Quite a fun book full of facts. The only flaw was that it was jam packed with facts and was a bit tedious to read. Besides that it was good I liked it when the teacher got lost in space and the children had to fend for themselves. It was a nice touch.

Artemis : wild goddess of the hunt, George O’Connor
This is a very truthful account of the tales of Artemis. The illustrations depict the emotions of the characters extremely well. I thoroughly liked the stories they chose. The book is very dramatic and tells of love loss hardships and triumph. All and all it was a great story!!

Hephaistos : god of fire, George O’Connor
I would recommend this book for anyone who has any interest in Greek mythology. It tells of not only hephaestus but prometheus also!! I have studied Greek myth but I still learnt some facts from this great book.

Apollo : the brilliant one, George O’Connor
I loved hearing about the muses and the way they told the tales about Apollo. The way you hear about the muses and Apollo makes it a double good book.

Lyla, Fleur Beale
A very moving and dramatic novel. It is the kind of book that pulls you along and makes it hard to stop. My fave character was Matt because it is fun to read about how he turns from neighborhood bad boy to home angel .All round it was a good book!!

Ares : bringer of war, George O’Connor
It is a good book but I feel it could focus on Ares a bit more. Despite this I still liked it. I would recommend it for kids aged ten plus .
