THE 5 CHILDREN ON THE WESTERN FRONT/book journal

This term i have been reading a wonderful book which goes
by the name of ‘The 5 Children On The Western front’ by
Kate Saunders. When I was picking my book to read I saw this
and just from the front cover I already had an idea of what
the book would of been about it was based on WW1 or WW2.

As I alway do when I find a book I read the first chapter. I
was amazed just from the first paragraph I almost cried ,
That was when my adventure started. When I told my sister about this
book she said did you know that Kate Saunders apparently wouldn’t of
wrote this book if her son didn’t commit suicide.

The characters as i went through the story became more and more
interesting the 5 Children (The main Characters) are called
Cyril,Anthea,Robert,Jane,Hilary and the funniest of all lamb she was
named this for the reason that the first ever word se said was baa . In my
own opinion my favourite character out of the bunch is Cyril as he is
really interesting in this book as he is the oldest.

Another positive thing from this book as i can’t think of any negatives is
that Kate Saunders did an extremely good job showing us the impact of
the war as in the book she talks aboutFood shortages, lawns turned into
potato fields, young girls driving ambulances in London and in France,
life and death in the trenches are all there this is how you know Kate
Saunders did her research to make sure all she said was true

The 5 Children On The Western Front is now one of my favourite books of
all time I a scale of 1 to 5 I would definitely rate it a 4.8 this is because Kate
Saunders did an extremely good job with this and I gave it 0.5 higher
rating as i love WW1 and WW2 books well done Kate Saunders this is an
amazing book would recommend to others.
