Book Of Bad Breaks [Digipak] - Thee More Shallows

Henrys big bad/fab book review!

Advantages: Another compilation of fantastic stories, and much more!
Disadvantages: None.

? that get re-printed into a book, a compilation if you will. The main difference with these books is they are all in colour, many of the older books are all black and white with pictures being decipherable but somewhat scribbly! The book I will now review is - ?Horrid Henry?s big bad book by Francesca Simon? There are ten stories in total included in the book, alongside these are pages of interest to the child reader, fact files of the characters, funny notes sent between Henry and his arch nemesis Moody Margaret and many more, very funny to read I can tell you. Henry?s new teacher - Henry has had a rotten report card for the year, he?s quite happy with that fact, not really caring a jot, but after returning to school he realises that things are going to be different. Instead of returning to be taught by Miss Battle-Axe, Henry ...

Review of Horrid Henry's Big Bad Book: Ten Favourite Stories - and More! - Francesca Simon

Bad Girl, Decent Book

Advantages: A wonderful lead character
Disadvantages: Quite a tough subject matter

coloured her life. We also get to see how she works around being illiterate and innumerate to such an extent that no-one realises straight away that she can't read or count. What struck me most about the story, even more so than the slightly disturbing background, is what a wonderful character Magda Finnan is. She's spent most of her life being ordered around and berated and punished for any number of things and she's uneducated, which gives her a major inferiority complex. She's a shy, retiring little thing, but she's battled through everything life has thrown at her and she's survived, possibly against the odds. This makes her more of a heroine than many other characters I've come across. The way the book is written helps with this, as it's told from Magda's point of view in the very simple language she herself would use. When she's under ...

Review of Bad Girl Magdalene - Jonathan Gash

Bad Boys..!!! more like bad script

Advantages: Witty humour from Smith and Lawrence
Disadvantages: Rushed plot and not a patch on the first movie...

the exceptionally pleasing all round first movie back then. So when Bay, Simpson and Bruckheiler decided to join forces in their quest once more, nearly ten years after their original meeting, with the idea of recreating the same form of action and comedy, using the same two faces as the main characters, they messed up on just one little detail? they failed to find some writers with the same calibre as Barrie, Mulholland and Richardson, (who gave us the first Bad Boys radiance in ?95). Instead, using different writers to create this almost desperate sequel. ** BRIEF PLOT? Mike Lowry (Will Smith) , the womanising charmer with a little lost boy look, and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) , the more family orientated sensible one in the partnership, are Miami police officer who are in charge of a drug investigation task force. During one ...
