Out Of The Ashes

BOOK REVIEW




REVIEWED BY SOPHIE THOMPSON

The main characters are Becky Morley and her Dad. Becky, as well as her Dad, loves animals.

Becky starts to write her diary on the 1st of January. Her dad gave it to her on Becky’s 13th birthday. This is not a story at all. It all happened. It was New Year and Dad was ringing a bell for he was a bell ringer. Dad sang “Danny Boy” which was his favourite song in the whole wide world. Jay, Becky’s best friend, was with her in the graveyard, lying down. When they got home, Becky went to see Ruby, her horse, just to say happy New Year. Then Becky’s school teacher has a baby and her new teacher who is covering for her made them what he might be thinking. Jay wrote a really good poem called “Thinking Nothing.” Then something awful happens, they get foot and mouth disease on their farm. All the animals have to be killed…

I love this book. It is very exciting because lots of things happen at once.

I would recommend this book to 7 and a half+.
