The opportunities for learning and discussion are vast and this book will have even the most reluctant reader in your class – boy or girl – hooked from the beginning. I understand why the publishers have done it because they want the book to appeal to the audience which the book is written for. The writing style in this is, most of the time, quite plain: it is very compatible with children between the ages of 12-15 maybe and there is something in the writing style which reminded me a lot of how YA books are written, in general. That cover would very easily appeal to teenagers, especially boys! Of course, this is not a perfect book, as symbolised by the 3/5 stars. I had two issues with this book, one of which I have already partially highlighted:

By doing so, the theme of football will grab the attention of many readers and gives a tangible way into the more complex strands of narrative. Honestly, at first I was reluctant to read this as I am not a football fan, but this book is so much more than a 'football' book. It is a story of friendship, of family and of hope and it was amazing. This is a book I will remember for a long time. It might be a children's book but it pulls no punches in its description of the way too many children still have to live in our world today. It makes you laugh and cry, devastates you and gives you hope, and leaves you wanting to change the world. I can't believe I haven't found this book until now!

It's a positive read, and while it may not be a 'happy ever after' ending, it does end with hope and the prospect of better tomorrows.Moretz has shown interest in returning for a third installment and would also be interested in exploring Hit-Girl's dark side: "I want to see something we haven't seen yet. Now we've seen who Mindy is, now we've seen who Hit-Girl is, I think we need to meld the characters together and have Mindy become Hit-Girl and Hit-Girl become Mindy. Maybe her natural hair has a streak of purple in it, maybe she really does go kind of crazy and go a bit darker since she lost her father." She also added, "I would only do the third one if it was logical. It needs to be a good script and a director, probably Matthew (Vaughn). The third film needs to fully wrap up the series and has to be a good note to end on." [47] This book topic has a number of practical activities to extend children’s understanding of the novel. I loved reading about Budi and Johnson creates his world brilliantly- you truly come to inhabit his life, feel his hopes and anxieties and care for him and his family. You want good things for Budi!

Set during World War I, this book tells the compelling true story of the professional footballers who signed up to fight. It's sure to enthral readers and pique their interest in the period. Stone, Sam (2 May 2021). " Crossover: Every Indie Comics Hero in the MASSIVE Battle Royale". Comic Book Resources. Archived from the original on 3 May 2021 . Retrieved 2 May 2021. Brilliant book for the ages of 10-13 years old. It's about a boy called Budi who loves football and who dreams of becoming a football star. Fantastic book and great ways to hook a reader because I am loving it! Defo worth a read I really enjoyed this book and it's so important. I just hope that Amnesty can continue to work with authors to put out children's fiction covering such important themes as there really aren't many stories out there like this one! Konfliknya mulai terasa pada suatu sore ketika Budi berlatih bola— itu hanya karena dia tidak suka menyebutnya bermain, lebih bangga menyebutnya berlatih— di sepetak tanah kosong bersama teman-temannya. Namun kesialan terjadi, belum dapat merasakan gurihnya rendang buatan ibunya, Budi malah harus berurusan dengan Naga karena satu tendangannya yang menyalang ke rumah 'Preman' Jakarta itu, mantan napi Nusa Kambangan yang menyeretnya pada komplotan mereka untuk melakukan aksi yang jelas berlawanan dengan kerjaannya— ya dia harus melakukan itu demi menyelamatkan dirinya 'hidup-hidup' dari si Naga sialan itu.

Welcome

We have been trying out what life was like before electricity. Some of us wanted to share what we thought it was like in the past.

Also Budi is a budding (excuse the pun) footballer and plays football whenever he can, commentating on his play in his head. “One day I’m going to be a world-famous footballer like Kieran Wakefield” – Wakefield, the Real Madrid player who cost the highest ever transfer fee, being his hero. The Reading Agency have teamed up with Nike and Rebel Girls to give away half a million copies of their new book to children taking part in the Summer Reading Challenge.

Looking for something different

Moreover, it was emotional, compelling and brilliantly portrayed the life of someone who has a life less fortunate than most of us, but without othering him, and while offering the reader an easy way to relate to him (particularly for younger readers- it is a fantastic book that will teach them about another culture while offering an easy way into the narrative). GameSpot (May 3, 2010). "Today On the Spot 4/29/10 by GameSpot". YouTube. Google. Archived from the original on September 13, 2016 . Retrieved December 3, 2010. There are many elements in this book, therefore, that show that message and relate to Budi's story in the meantime. However, towards the end of the book, it really does become so much more than that. I won't be spoiling anything but it does get very intense and very deeply emotional (some very nasty stuff happens!) and then it becomes more a story of morals and making the right decisions in life as oppose to the easy decisions. Those themes, again, I thought were handled really well and just in general, it was a really strong novel. We had a great time at the Think Tank. We learnt all about Sparky and even made a circuit by joining hands!
