e .g . My favourite book is “ Bitter Fruit” by Brian Keeney. This is the story 
of Rebecca and her family. She often disagrees with her parents. 
The book tells how Rebecca lives on after her fa th e r’s death. I would 
recom m end the book to all teenagers.
In Great Britain many books fo r young readers are published every year.
Teenagers often write about the books they have read. They write about 
the them e of books, explain why they like them and recom m end other 
teenagers to read them . This kind of w riting is called a “ Book review” . The 
following book reviews are written by three English teenagers.
“ S torm breaker” by Anthony Horowitz is a thrilling book about Alex Rider 
and his teenage spy adventures. His uncle was killed and Alex wants to 
know who killed him. Later he was trained by Ml 
6
* as a spy and sent on 
his first mission. Soon he discovers a dangerous situation and decides 
what to do.
“Stormbreaker” is an excellent book which kept me on the edge of my seat.
*M I 6 - the section o f the British S ecret Service
“Coram Boy” (the w riter is Jamila Gavin) is a book about the life of people 
in the 18th century. A man called Otis and his son collect unwanted babies 
from m others and promise to send them to a good orphanage, the Coram 
Hospital. However, Otis is a dishonest man and quite often these babies 
die. The book also tells us about two boys who d o n ’t have parents: Toby 
and Aaron, and what they decide to do.
It is a book full of love, unfriendly people and it is very exciting. The 
chapters are about the right size, and to anyone who finds it slow at the 
beginning, I say just keep on reading, you w o n ’t be disappointed.
“ Bitter Fruit” (the author is Brian Keeney) is about Rebecca and her 
family. Rebecca is a teenager girl. She often disagrees with her parents. 
Once on a very bad day she tells her father that she hates him. These are 
the last words she says before he dies. This is the story of how she lives 
on after her fa th e r’s death. The beginning of the book is slightly too long, 
and I d id n ’t want to read on. However, it gets better and by the end I liked 
it very much.
