Have any of you guys heard of Alice in Wonderland? Alice goes into Wonderland and has a magical journey. But not in this book! This book tells the real story of Alice (actually called Alyss), who goes into the real world when chased by her malicious aunt, Redd. Anyways, in the real world Alyss meets Lewis Carrol the writer of the book, Alice in Wonderland. She tells him her story of how she is a princess and her mother and father were killed by her aunt Redd. But he mixes the story up! He changed it into the book we read today. Back to Alyss, Alyss has to find a way back to Wonderland in order to claim her rightful place as The Queen of Hearts. I think that this book would appeal for both boys and girls and i would rate it a 9/10.

The story, ” Facing the Lion” by Joseph Lemasaolair Lekuton, is about an african boy growing up in Northern Kenya, named Joseph Lekuton. Joseph was a small African boy growing up in Kenya, living in huts and sleeping on the hard rock ground. He lived with his mother, father, three brothers, and his tribe. One day, his brothers and other kids from his tribe, had to spend the night protecting their cattle in lion territory. All of a sudden, they hurd all the cows peeing, that means there is a lion nearby. So all the boys started making noise, to scare the lions away, but then they heard a lion catch one of the cows! So read this book ” Facing the Lion”, to see what happens to Joseph and his tribe. This story is realistic fiction, and is four points.
