The ostrich
boys is a very good book. Lots of imagination and thought has been put into it.
The writer, Keith Gray, uses a lot of good vocabulary and punctuation to add
information, and emphasis.
The book is
about three fifteen year old boys whose best friend; Ross is hit by a car
whilst riding his bike. At the funeral lots of people the boys, Blake, Kenny
and Sim, don’t like turn up. So Blake, Kenny and Sim decide that they will
steal the urn containing Ross’ ashes and take them to the small Scottish town
of Ross. The thing they don’t know is that journey to Ross will be a lot harder
than expected. With a lot of squabbling and new friends along the way will
Blake, Kenny and Sim make it?
My opinion
of the book is that it is very dramatic book with language for older people. At
some points it is funny but overall it is adventurous. Although most of the
book was excellent I didn’t really like the ending because I didn’t like the
how they weren’t all together at the end after all they had gone through. Overall it was a very good book and I would read again. I would recommend this book
to people who are in their teens and who like adventure.

Hey Rory,
ReplyDeleteI think your review is very good but you used a semi-colon incorrectly. When you put "...boys whose best friend; Ross is hit...", it shouldn't have a semi-colon. But otherwise, good review!

Good comment Jay and a good review Rory, clear expression and sense of style. Remember that 'overall' is all one word and 'altogether' should be two separate words.
ReplyDeleteWell done for correcting the mistakes.
