This half term we have been reading The Sheep Pig, Charlotte's Wb and Flat Stanley. Take a look at our book reviews - which book would you be interested in reading?
This story is about a pig that was won at a fair by a farmer. The pig met a family of sheep dogs and liked their job, he decided that he wanted to be a...Sheep Pig!
I think this book is happy and funny, sometimes it made me smile.
The part I liked the best was when Fly the sheep dog adopted the pig even though she thought he was stupid. I did not like the part when the farmers wife said "As soon as he is big and old enough we can eat him for dinner."
I would rate this book 8.5/10, I also would recommend it to all of my friends because it tells you no matter who you are you can be who you want to be!

Charlotte's web by E.B. White.
Charlotte's Web is about a girl called Fern who saved a pig from getting killed(by the father.) Fern always see's the pig and watches him eat his delicious food.
My favourite part is when Fern got to keep the lovely pig! I didn't like when Ferns father was going to kill the pig.
I would say this book is reasonable for children because it is sad a little bit but then it gets happy! This book is also easy to read.
Charlotte's Web is an interesting book because I really wanted to read all of Charlotte's Web and I did.But it wasn't just interesting it was amazing!
My favourite character was Wilbur the pig because it is the cutest and I just think Wilbur is the best!
This book is going to get a 10/10 from me!

The Sheep-Pig by Dick King- Smith
The Sheep Pig is about a little pig that is won at a fair. He and taken home he meets a Sheep Dog. After he discovers he wants to be a Sheep Dog! He wants to herd the sheep in like Fly
My opinion is that it is funny all the way through because it makes you laugh. However, I enjoyed it even though it is not the kind of book I would normally read.
The part that I liked the best was when Babe did not leave Fly after he met her. The part that I did not like was when Fly says " There going to fatten Babe up and eat him".
I recommend this book because it can entertain a lot of people. Especially my friends. I would rate it 9/10 because it is a really good book but it is not my type.

Charlotte's Web by E.B white
Charlotte's web is about a girl called Fern and a pig called Wilbur... However the pig is to small and her father nearly killed it. But Fern loved the pig to much.
Charlotte's web is sad and funny at times because Fern takes the pig to school.
I liked the bit where Fern takes the pig to school and the bit where the spider comes in because it is very funny. I didn't like the bit where the pig nearly got killed because it was smaller than all the others.
I recommend this book because it makes you laugh and it is sad at times.

Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown
Flat Stanley is a book that people may enjoy reading. Flat Stanley is quite a laughable book.
I think that Flat Stanley is a good book and my friends would love reading the book. I would like to rate Flat Stanley 10/10!
My favourite part of the story is when Stanley's brother Arthur tried to be flat like Stanley by putting about twelve book's on top of himself. I dislike the bit when poor Stanley has to go down the smelly, disgusting drain because his Mum's ring fell off her finger.
I recommend Flat Stanley because it has the perfect amount of pictures and it is funny. I also think that Flat Stanley is a laughable and enjoyable book!

Charlottes Web by E.B White
Charlottes web is about a little girl what saves a little pig called Wilbur.
I think charlottes web is not the thing I like because it's all about animals.But on the other hand it is a interesting story about a pig.
I liked the part where the little pig dug a big hole where his little kennel is and made him self a bed.I don't like how the dad was going to kill the little pig.
I would rate this book 7/10 because I am not enjoying reading it.I will see if my friends like this book.I think they won't like it.

Flat Stanley is a excellent book it is about a boy that gets flat by a table and can slid under doors and go underground through drains.
My opinion is the book is very adventurous and funny the part that he went under the door was so funny I laughed out loud hahaha!
The best part of flat Stanley was when he went in the post through a envelop.However, I didn't like when Stanley fell in the tree at all.
I will tell my friends about this book because they love books like this adventurous and funny wow I love this book.

The best part is when charlotte the spider pop's out to the horse and said boo! then the horse said please don't kill me! The worst part is when when Wilbur nearly get's killed.
I would recommend it 10/10 because it is funny and sad.

The Sheep Pig by Dick King-Smith
This fun story is about a pig who was won at a fair and was taken to a barn by a person called Mr Hogget. The pigs name was Babe. Babe met a dog called Fly and she treated him like her son! Suddenly...He asked "Can i be a sheep pig?"
I think the best bit of this extraordinary story is when they got Babe (The Pig) At the fair! But the part that I defiantly did not like was when the dog Fly called the animals stupid!
I would highly recommend it because it would be fun , detailed and enjoyable for my friends to read through and finish it and enjoy it very well! I would rate this book 10 out of 10 because its funny and adventures!

Flat Stanley by Jeff brown
This story is about a young boy named Stanley who became flat ! He became flat because a huge piece of card board fell on him.
In my opinion this book was funny and strange , it was strange because Stanley was doing weird things that no other child could do or would do !
The thing i liked best about this book was when Stanley slided under the door it was so hilarous it made me laugh and laugh! The thing i didnt like about this book was when staley climbed down the drain to look for his mums ring it looked to dark ,damp and dangerous.
I would recommend this book to have 8/10 stars because it was very funny and cretive but it also was abit strange and odd .

Charlotte's Web by E.B White.
The publisher is Puffin.
The story is about a little girl called Fern and how Wilbur is saved from a dreadful fate by Charlotte the spider's very clever plan.Wilbur is a
pig and he was to small and Fern saves him from being killed by her farther.
I think that Charlotte's Web is really interesting and I think that adult's might like to read it to.The images are interesting to, the images were greatly drawn.The word difficulty is just right.
The best part about the story is that Charlotte saved Wilbur's life!I liked all of it but I did not like that Charlotte the spider died.
I do recommend this book because it is a great book for 9 to adult. It is the best book ever!!!

The Sheep Pig by Dick King-Smith
The Sheep Pig is about a pig called Babe who was won at a fair by Farmer Hogget. However Babe wasn't like ordinary pigs... because after seeing Fly the dog he had a dream of herding sheep.
My opinion would be that this book is adventurous and funny but can be sad at different points. Despite it being sad at points, I still enjoyed the book very much.
My favourite part of The Sheep Pig was when Babe the pig won the sheep-dog trials (but in his case the sheep-pig trials). The part that I didn't enjoy was when Farmer Hogget thought that Babe killed a sheep when the dog of some mean people did it! Babe almost got shot by Farmer Hogget! My favourite character was Babe the pig because he is very kind to the sheep and is also kind to all the other animals.
I would highly recommend the book to all my friends because I think they would like the style of book. If I were to rate The Sheep Pig, I would give it 10/10!

Charlotte Webb by E.B.white
Charlotte's Webb is all about a little girl called Fern and a small pig called Wilbur who she adores.
In my opinion I have really enjoyed it as it was funny and sad.I think everyone in the world should read this incredible story!
What I liked the most about this book is that the animals could talk to each other. I didn't like when Fern's dad was cruel to the animals.
I would recommend this book to children of any age I would rate this book 8/10

Flat Stanley by Jeff brown
This book is about a boy called Stanley getting flattened by a giant drawing board and had to go to the doctors.
I think this book is funny and interesting because Stanley brother keeps saying hey when got told not to.
My favourite part was when Stanley got flattened by a giant board and my least favourite part was when Stanley was used for a kite.
I would rate this book at about 6/10 and I would recommend this book to children of all ages.

Charlotte's Web by E. B. White
Charlotte's Web is about a spider called Charlotte who lives above a pig called Wilbur's pen however Charlotte describes Wilbur as some pig, terrific, radiant and humble.
What I liked best about the story was that Fern (who looked after Wilbur when he was a baby) tried to stop her father killing him once he was born.
What I didn't like best was that Wilbur found out that he was going to be killed, that's when Charlotte started describing Wilbur.
I would recommend this book 10/10 because it is emotional and enjoyable for everyone.
