‘Lightning Girl’ Book Review

Lightning Girl - Book Review  

Millie-Paige

I’ve nearly finished reading Lightning girl, and it’s one of the best books I’ve read. The author is Alesha Dixon; illustrated by James Lancett. There is another book - which is call Lightning girl - superhero squad - that I am planning to read next, following on from the first one.

It’s about this girl (Aurora Beam) finding that her and her family have superpowers. As well at problems at home, she’s not having the best time with her powers (at school). So I’m looking forward to reading the end, and I would like other people to enjoy it as well. 

I would recommend this ool to childrens 9+. I would give this book a 9/10.

I have also noticed some relative clauses, single dashes, and hyphenated words. Which is good because in year 6 we are learning about them.

'The Way' by Amelia

Darkness consumed me. I shiver from my surroundings and take a step. I look forward and check my pocket; Fluffy is still there. I move around to look for an exit; it's like living in a parallel universe. Above is a small, wooden hut with a few steps. One, two, three, four, five. There appeared to be more. I have been going up for ages. I appear to be getting nowhere.

Up and down. Up and down. I rush ahead. I can't go up but I can't go down. Is it a trap? Maybe. I'm suppose to go left or right but neither work. I go to the very top where there is a forcefield. My foot slides through the step. I fall.

I land under the hut. I saw something. I crawl to reach it and can see it says number thirteen. I decide to proceed. There were two cars: number thirteen and number thirteen. I chose the first one. It all starts to make sense and I know what I have to do.
