this book is quite good and disgusting because in the grimms fairytale people's heads get cut off and the blood had to be smeared all over the stone body to revive the person again. In cinderella when they were trying to fit the slipper into their big feet the sisters had to cut off their toes. but its also a good book and its fun to read.
An exciting blog for 7B to record their own reflections on the books they have read and to read and comment on the reviews of their classmates too.
