By the river
by Steven Herrick
Is book which is made of peoms. The main caracter is a boy called Harry. The book is telling us many feelings of the characters. Henrys Family has got a house, his father gave him oil. With this oil Henry should paint the oil on the old house. But later the house was smelling terrible, because the oil didn`t smell good. So the people made jokes about it and they spit on the house. Then a new girl called Claire came in to the class, he liked her. The whole story is at the first view not logical but many poems aren´t logical at the first view. I think if you want to understand the story you need to feel in the characters.
I think the book is very interesting. But not for all people, if you like books with many emotions and if you like poems, you should read it.
My Rating
First of all, super job for sticking to the guidelines so well (title, author, summary, own opinion and rating) and secondly I particularly liked the way you phrased your recommendation for others. I think it might be really helpful for prospective readers.
ReplyDeleteJust two little things:
- don't forget the apostrophe in Henry's
- be careful about the spelling of pOEm
A super job!
