Oliver and the Seawigs

Philip Reeves

Leon

My favourite part is when Oliver met Iris the mermaid as it's adventure and fantasy put together and I like mixed dramas.

Also I loved when he author said in bracets 'you might not like school but Oliver has never been so....`

When Oliver was called a crisp it made me laugh I liked that part too.

I would reccomend this book to an adveture

theme reader.
