My name is Joshua, I am 9 years old. At the beginning of March I found out about the Harvey Hext Trust – A Sibling’s Wish, a charity which gives personalised memory boxes and ‘Harvey Bears’ to children who have lost a brother or sister.
I knew I wanted to do something to help, so that very night I sat down and made a plan. I am doing a sponsored 100 book reading challenge for the rest of the year. So far I am on the 10th book and have raised £142. To help one child costs them £200 so that is my fundraising goal.
The last book that I finished was “The Magic Misfits” by Neil Patrick Harris, from Egmont Publishing 2017.
He finds B. B. Bosso’s circus. B. B. Bosso is horrid.
Carter is starving and takes some food out of a bin, B. B. Bosso accuses him of stealing and tries to force him to join his circus.
Carter makes friends with another child called Leila and a mysterious but kind magician called Mr Vernon. The new friends have thrilling adventures and uncover a dramatic truth about the past.
There are also secret codes in the book which makes it even more awesome. I am not going to ruin the excitement for anyone who has not read the book. I would rate it 5 stars. I am looking forward to when the 2nd comes out later this September and I will definitely be reading it.
I would recommend it to anyone who likes magic books and exciting books. My mum read it too and really enjoyed it.
I am blogging about my reading challenge at www.jsworldofwonder.wordpress.com where I write short reviews about the books and other things I enjoy.
