We're Afraid Of Heights Tonight - Rum Diary

We're Unstoppable!!

Advantages: Every song is different and original.
Disadvantages: short songs.

Blacklisted are a Hardcore Punk band from Philapelphia, USA. They first started putting out music in early 2003 but had formed but not released material before this date. One of their first major releases and their first full length release was this one, "We're Unstoppable" which was realeased in 2005 on Deathwish Inc. records. However it is not as it seems as the songs featured on this full length album actually have come from two Ep's put out by the band at an earlier date. The first six songs on this album were originaly off "Our youth is wasted..." Ep which was released on Stillborn records in 2003, and the last four songs were originaly off their Demo which was released on walk all night records earlier in 2003. (my own personal rating to how good the song is is shown by the side of the track title out of 5.) Lets get down ...

Review of We're Unstoppable - Blacklisted

We?re Going on a Bear Hunt!

Advantages: fun, energetic, well structured, well illustrated, easy to read
Disadvantages: none

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ We?re Going on a Bear Hunt! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ We?re Going on a Bear Hunt is on of my favourite children?s books. It is written by Michael Rosen and illustrated by Helen Oxenbury. When I was younger I used to love this story and now I enjoy reading it with or too the children that I work with. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ The Book ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ The book itself comes in a variety of sizes, and in both hard back and paperback. The copy I currently have beside me is a small square, hard back copy, but somewhere in my house there is also a large book version which is great for reading to a large group of children as they can all see the pictures and the words. The copy I have cost £3.99. The story was first published in 1989 by Walker Books Ltd and the edition I have was ...

Review of We're Going on a Bear Hunt - Michael Rosen

We're Going to Catch a Big One!

Advantages: Lovely rhythmical story of a journey
Disadvantages: None!

This is one of my favourite books EVER; excellent for reading aloud, and children love it. WHAT IS IT ABOUT? There is not much of a plot; the skill is in the absolute poetic simplicity of the text. Whe I first read it I thought "I could write this" and when I recognised the complexity of it realised?"maybe not!!" Three children decide to go on a bear hunt with their father and dog "We're going on a bear hunt, We're going to catch a big one" Off they go, to be faced with different obstacles along the way-grass, mud, a forest, a snowstorm, a cave. Then they come face to face with the bear "IT'S A BEAR!!!" Children love this bit and when they become familiar with the storyline, they wait for it so that they can have a really good shout! Oh dear, time to get back home, so off they dash. The pace of the story changes at this stage ...
