The Wild West Gang Review By Caralena




The Wild West Gang (by Joy Cowley), is a really adventurous book about a boy who goes to his cousins’ house the Wild Wests. The Wild West house is disgustingly weird! Michael’s Dad gives him $10 to buy lollies, but cousin Royce has a different plan! The adventure is muddy!!!
I thought this book was a really cool and super funny story. However it needs more things to happen in it. Still, read it to find out what happens!

Roxanne's review of The Call of the Wild, by Jack London



Sold to become a sled dog, Buck the Saint Bernard cross Border Collie, is sent to become a sled dog in the frozen Yukon in the north. In this harsh climate of hard men and harder dogs, Buck rises beyond his enemies, the elements and even learns to love another master.
I think that the Call of the Wild is a good book to read because it is written with great descriptions of the harsh world Buck lives in. Buck is a determined character and you want to keep on reading to see what will happen to him next. This book would be good for someone who loves adventure, a hero and dogs.
