This book was not as good as I expected. Some of the stories in it were great and some were not so good. Blue Peter had a competition where children sent in their end of stories that a famous author started. The winners were all put into this book. Aimed at most ages, as there are pictures and also a play. My favourite story was 'Natives' started by Anthony Horowitz because it was very adventurous. My least favourite story was 'Golden Feather' as it kind of dragged on a bit. When you buy the book, £1 goes to Childline which helps children who need someone to talk to.

This is a most unusual book written as a
diary. Your attention is immediately caught by the chapter numbers and then by
the introduction to him self as the character. The story is about the evens in
his life as he sees them. You are immediately aware that he doesn't see things
in quite the same way as most other people. The attraction of the book is
trying to see the world through his eyes and understand the problems he finds.
It is well worth the effort of persevering through one or two slightly boring
passages. I found it an intriguing book.
