Jakob's Review

DVD REVIEW: SPIRIT
Rating: G
Spirit is a really entertaining movie for the whole family. It’s about a wild horse that could see a light and goes over to look. But it was actually some wild horse catchers that take Spirit away from his home land and takes them to there home which is a giant stable. He got groomed so that he looks like a trained horse. But he starts to hurt the groomer in a very funny way. He finds an Indian in the stables which helps spirit get out. The Indian man has a girl wild horse which Spirit loves they get chased by the wild horse catchers down a river which there is a water fall and the girl wild horse falls and either lives or DIES sorry you’ll have to watch the whole movie to know more about Spirit, the Indian man, the girl wild horse, Spirits mum and the wild horse catchers.

Meet Dave

Meet Dave is a great family movie to watch. It has brilliant comedy and I know most of you would love it! It has some funny characters counting tiny centimetre people working inside him. He meets some friends on the journey to find a little space ball. You will find this movie in the cinemas now. There are also some other good movies in the cinemas too, for example: Kung Fu Panda,
Prince Caspian, Get Smart, Mamma Mia and others. BY MILLIE PEATE-GARRATT

BOOK REVIEW:

Hanging on Letting Go
By Helen Beaglehole
Hanging on letting go is a great story that is not very well known. It is about a 21-year-old boy called Ben Walker. He goes tramping with his friends, Rachel and Zac. Ben wants to climb down a stream but it is slippery and dangerous. Rachel and Zac try to stop Ben but he goes and breaks his spine. The rest of the book is about Rachel wondering if they did enough to stop Ben from going. You have to read the rest to find out what happens! By Bridget White
