Sometimes you get lucky and come across a perfect little read in a perfect little book. The Silver Donkey is one such book. Two small French sisters, Coco and Marcelle, find an English soldier hiding in the woods. With the aid of their older brother, Pascal, the two sisters help the soldier escape the horrors of war. The lieutenant, in return, tells the children four gorgeous stories about donkeys. This is the best book I have read in a long, long time. Mrs Walker and Room 2 are reading it right now but soon it will be back on our library shelves. I hope some of the students in Room 2 will let us know what they think of this book. For me it is a 10 out of 10 because of the stories, because of the characters and above all because of the perfection of the writing. Recommended to everyone 8 years old and up.

hey,
this book looks really cool I think that I will read it soon.
Well I will give it ago.
I think it is a really good thing to have a libarary blog.
You need to pit more pictuses of othere books on for people to see.
You should have pictures of kids reading to and some of the libaraians.
Please can you do that?
You are the best person to run the libaray kara.
Cheers,
kahn
