Top Gear Best Bits The Challenges

Three men. James, Jeremy and Richard are the hosts of Top Gear. In this book, they trek across Africa. They only had 1500 pounds to spend on a car. They had to get from the east to the west of Botswana. Eventually James was the winner but as usual... all their decisions on who is the winner ends in an argument. Another challenge was when they ha to make a convertible out of a boring carrier. In the end, it blew up in a million pound car wash! Sometimes they do some wacky challenges such as building a Robin Reliant Space Shuttle... but that was a big failure! You can watch Top Gear on Tuesday on Prime from 7:30pm to 8:30pm.

Silly Stories

This book has heaps of short and silly stories and there are also poems. My favourite story is called The Singing Bank Robber, it is about a man who is coming home from work and his motorbike brakes down. Then he gets a stone in his shoe and it is raining so he had to limp home but he did not realise that he was been watched by 2 policemen. They thought he was a robber because he was carrying a cash bag. They got mistaken and relieved the person. They had a leak in the house. There are many more stories in this book.

This book was written by many authors.

I would give this book a 7.9/10

Horrid Henry's Revenge


This book is about two boys called Horrid Henry and Perfect Peter. Perfect Peter always tells on Henry and he gets the blame but this time Henry gets Peter in trouble, FINALLY!!!! He tricks him into believing in fairies. Peter thought is was great. Their mum and dad saw Peter up in the tree and growled him. The family get a new computer and Henry wants to play games on it. He fixes a problem that his mum and dad cant fix because they are a little bit scared of computers. Henry fixes it and he wrecked up Peter's essay, dad's work and mum's spreadsheet. His mum and dad let him play the games he wants after he fixed the computer. Peter showed the essay to his teacher which was about her and the teacher got very mad at him and she called Peter's parents. He blamed it on Henry.
