Title: The dark blue 100- ride bus ticket

Author: Margharet Mahy

Blurb: The dark blue 100- ride bus ticket is about a boy called Carlo and his Mum Jessica who live in an old brown run down flat. One day they accept a bus ticket from an old lady in the supermarket. Outside the shop, a blue bus that looks like the ticket shows up and takes them to the end of the world supermarket. Inside the endless supermarket, there is everything out of the ordinary including the horrible, mean, nasty Dowlers who are trying to overtake the supermarket. Carlo and Jessica meet another girl Carlo’s age called Pearlie and her dad Dominic who also have a bus ticket. All four of them throw a big party and invite all the people who work at the end of the world supermarket. The bus drivers who went to the party left the bus outside. Pearlie and Carlo were checking for Dowlers when suddenly they heard a cackling and screeching herd of dowlers coming. They jumped into the bus and hid under the blue velvet seats. Next minute they arrived at the Supermarket and the dowlers wrenched them out from under the seats. The dowlers smashed down the shelves and threw Pearlie and Carlo around the supermarket.

Opinion:

Recommendation: I recommend this to people who like magic things.

Science Fiction

Blurb= As the milkman (Chloe's uncle) was delivering the milk he saw something flash in the corner of his eye then he crashed and he lost his job. One day Martha and her younger brother Robbie find a furry creature that leads them to an exciting alien from Carnelia called Opal. Opal is on earth to complete her CIA (Carnelian Independence Award). Opal has to survive her time on earth and not be in the media or have anyone take photos of her. She also has to make a friend. After Martha’s best friend Chloe became friends with Colette Martha had sworn to never ever have another friend. Martha’s mum had to work in the hairdresser for the whole holidays to earn money and Martha and Robbie would always go and play with Opal at the playground. Martha still refused to be Opal’s friend but one day it was raining and Martha had to go to Chloe’s house with Colette. They were teasing her about how babyish Martha was when Opal turned up and read Colette's mind. Opal said that Mr Tickle Bump was Colette's teddy and she went everywhere with him and then she got really embarrassed. Chloe’s uncle had been trying to take pictures of Opal ever since he saw her cause she made him lose his job.

Opinion: This book didn’t really hook me in but later on in the book it got really good.

Recommendation: I recommend this book to people who like magic alien books.

Stereotyping

We had to do a stereotyping challenge and guessed a heap of things about different people. This is my work on Stereotyping and respecting.
