Review by Kezi (Year 9)

When I read this book I thought nothing would ever be as good as the first one – ‘Miss Lovelace’s Code’ but then I was overcome by this story as it was almost as excellent as the first. It was such an exciting story and had some really fun moments such as when the pumpkins were coded to scare away the robbers. I also thought that it was creative to include anti-bullying into the moral of the story.

This book is particularly good for younger readers who enjoy a good adventure and love to see a problem solved – with plenty of funny moments thrown in for good measure!

Overall, I thought that both this book and it’s predecessor were such good stories with happy endings and good morals and I would love to hear more about Miss Lovelace and Ant if another sequel was written.

This is Christmas Day

by Tim Allyn

Part of the joy that parents have at Christmas is seeing their children's excitement when opening all the wrapped toys and gifts. The first Christmas wasn't too different! God had a special gift that He was giving to the world. It was the only gift that could save us from our sadness, sin, and pain. It was the only gift that could bring peace and joy to those who suffer. God delighted to make Christmas Day so spectacular because He was giving one gift that would save the world.
