By The River by Steven Herrick

Hello everybody,
today I want to recomment a book which is made of poems. This book call "By The River". I think that it's really good to read and so I give it five big stars.

This book is about a young adult call Henry and he remember his childhood.
 There he lived in a mean, little and shabby house and he didn't want to live like that anymore. So he learnt how to cut a watermelon from his father.
After that, a new girl called Claire came into his class and he liked her very much.
Then some other old memories came and in the last memory his mum died.

I think you shouldn't read this book, if you are very emotional. Then you would cry after reading.
But besides that this book is a very great one.
I think if you like poems you should really read this book. It's great, but often also not logical and often confusing.

  2. Firstly, good job for sticking to the instructions (title, summary, etc.) and for adding a picture to a review. That is one important aspect of a book review that I forgot to mention. It isn't necessary but it certainly gives the reader of your review a further insight on the book your are presenting.
    In addition, I found your last remark about the book being very emotional extremely helpful.
    Just a couple of tiny remarks:
    - the book/the boy is callED
    - a house can't really be mean (unless if it's a magic house, of course) but it can definitely be shabby and small :-)
