Symphony Hall

Today I went to the Symphony Hall with the whole of year 7, where there were lots of different schools attending and two particular schools that had performed songs to everybody. The highlight was the orchestra performing and playing different instruments such as the harp, violin, violas, drums and much more.

There was a conductor who had to wave a stick so he could lead the orchestra who were very talented. The symphony hall is a big place, there are lots of seats and a stage for the people playing the music. There was a man who was telling us different stories about the past and introducing different pieces of music, everything they did was very posh and elegant.

Overall the whole day was perfect! We had such a good time listening to all the music and the stories about the past. All in all it was a wonderful day and I would like to thank Mrs Derrick for organising it for everyone.

My blog about the Symphony Hall

I appreciate all the effort you put in by taking us to the Symphony Hall. It was very nice of you, and you didn't have to waste your time. It taught me so much about why music is important and I realised would like to take music as one of my GCSE options. I was quite shocked when I first went inside the Symphony Hall it wasn't anything like I imagined, it was way better! It was phenomenal! I hope I can go on more music trips!

We went to the Symphony Hall and sat down. Then the orchestra were in the middle of the room. They started their first piece and it was brilliant and amazing. Afterwards, a man started talking about the blacksmith and then introduced us to a little group of children. That group hand sung as the orchestra was playing. This was the best piece of them all! Then the man started talking again and showed us what blacksmiths wear. The orchestra played brilliantly!

Today I went to a trip to the Symphony Hall. It was good, they played lots of different types of music. There was a conductor with a metal stick, he was moving his hand so that the people can play the music at the right time.

Music trip

Thank you for organising this music trip to the Symphony Hall. It was amazing. At first I didn't think it would be for me but luckily it was great!

I experienced how big an orchestra was. The music was fantastic. The thing that I did not know is that you can have more than one conductor. It was a fabulous trip and I enjoyed it a lot. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Symphony Hall

Today I went to the Symphony Hall to listen to an orchestra. They were in groups e.g. Violins and trumpets etc. A school sang with the groups too. The groups were led by a conductor.  He led them by telling them when to play and when not to.

Symphony Hall

Today I went to the Symphony Hall and I found it very exciting!

The thing that I liked was how they performed the music and it was really good!

The journey was really great and we got to the Symphony Hall on time. 

The conductor made me laugh and he lead the group by telling them when to play and when not to.

The Phone Goes Dead Review

I liked when David had the phone and Eric called him and told him that the ring was under the fridge.

I would have liked to have been even more spooky.

The book is aimed at teenagers because the main character was a teenager.

I would recommended it to teenagers.

10/10

The Phone Goes Dead Review

I liked this story because it had good theme. The theme was about a phone and because of that I think it is aimed at teenagers because most teenagers have have phone. I would rate this short story 7 out of 10 because it needs to be more scary!

By Shoaib Jamil Year 8

Book Review

I like this horror book, especially when David starts talking to the dead on his new phone ,but the book would be better if it has more horror in it!

This book is aimed at children 11-13 because that's the age most age children want a phone. I would recommend it to those people.

7/10

Book Review

What I liked about it ?

I liked how the writer described the scene and how he makes people get scared! As well as this I liked the bit when he tells people what kind of phone it is and what damage it has done at the end of the short story!

One thing I would Improve on?

When he was finishing the short story at the end why didn't he put a cliff hanger so he could make it more serious and so that it could leave the reader thinking? He could of used "To be continued..."

Who it's aimed at? 

This short story is aimed at teenagers and adults to read because this is a interesting short story.

Who would you recommend it to? 

I would recommend this short story to teenagers and adults.

Rating? Five stars, the book is amazing you should read it its a horror book!

By Anishah Fahreen 80

The phone goes dead review

The thing I liked about this story was that it made you interested because the way they described the settings. I liked the first part when she was walking near the park then suddenly she was dead! Then someone buys her phone and there is someone ringing him with a spooky ringtone! He had to go to someone and say that there is a ring under her fridge and she cried and slammed the door and then he realised the people that were ringing him...were dead!

By Faizan Year 8

The phone goes dead

The book was a horror it was aimed at teenagers because Anthony Horowitz used the basis of a mobile phone in his story. Also he has made it scary by making us, as teenagers, think dead people can call us on our mobile phones! He has used some hi quality vocabulary such as: pulsating, mauve and transmitted. Furthermore  he hasn't made the story too long so the reader doesn't get bored of reading the story.

I will rate this story at **** four stars because it kept me intrigued.

  

By Theo Pitter 80

The phone goes dead

What I found interesting about  this short story was that the ending leaves you guessing. It makes you wonder about what happened to David .What did he say to his father? Where he was phoning from and why? Was there a reason he died and if so could it be the same reason Linda James died?

I think the author could improve on the beginning I think it was clever linking it to the last story but I think he could of made the beginning of the story more mysterious . 

I give this story a rating on a scale of one to ten a eight because I liked the situation and the mysteries of how the dead got the number and was David dead!

By Cleo Reddington Year 8

  

The phone goes dead

In this story I mostly enjoyed the ending were he phoned the Zodiac 555. It was clever what he did and made me want to read more of his stories.

I would recommend this mostly to teenagers because some younger people might not understand the ending and might think that is alive when he is not. Anyone that phones the zodiac 555 is dead and is trying to pass on a note, then he wrote David said "hello" which means he is dead!

That's what I like about this this story.

The Phone Goes Dead Review

There was a girl named Linda James and she dies from an electric shock when she is talking on her phone. A boy is turning sixteen and his father buys him a phone. The same phone Linda James had when she had died.

When Linda James died after the phone call the phone was taken to a shop and Mark Adams bought the phone for his son. 

As soon as David Adams has got the phone he gets random phone calls from nowhere. The phone has a spooky ringtone...
 I like this story because its scary and horror. 

Rating: 5 stars. 

The phone goes dead review

I liked the fact that the phone can connect to the dead and hear them speak it. I would like it to be even more scary! I would recommend it for 14 + because it is not good for little kids. I would give it to a friend the rating is a 6 /10 :)

By Abbas Year 8

The phone goes dead review

The main thing I liked about the book was the phone and the spooky ringtone. This is because the book is based on horror and it makes the story even more scary. The one thing that the book should be improved on is the detail of each character , it should tell the readers more about the characters. The book is aimed at teenagers, because the genre is horror and teenagers love horror. I would recommend the book to teenagers aged 15-16 ,because David is 16 and they would understand his character more. I would rate the book 4 1/2 stars,because there could be some improvements.    

By Thasniya Parvin 8N

The Phone Goes Dead Review

The genre for this story is horror because someone dies and the ringtone of the phone is a spooky ringtone which sounds like funeral music! I liked this story because it has got a great cliffhanger and a great starting. I think it's aimed at kids +12 and adults because they like horror stories. I would give this story a 10/10 because it is great to read and is very interesting!

By Biflu Miah Year 8

The phone goes Dead Review

I liked the book because the theme is horror also the ring tone is freaky and scary! I enjoyed reading it.

I would make the ending part a bit longer and add more characters. This is aimed teenagers (15/16) because David was sixteen. I would tell my friends to read this because its interesting to read.

 

By Chanell Year8

The Phone goes dead Review

The book is about a phone that is called Zodiac 555 and someone who is dead can contact the living,in this case 'David'. It tells David to pass on messages. I think that this book is a very good  horror story because it uses a lot of descriptive words. I would rate this story 9/10 because its very scary and mysterious. This is why I rated this book 9/10.

 

By Adrees Chohan Year 8

The phone goes dead review

What I liked about it was that it was short and it was a horror story and also it was spooky. I think the story could have used more scary and spooky words. I think the story aimed at teenagers because the story is short and teenagers like short stories. I think this story should have a rating of 10/10.

By Ibraheim Muhammed Year 8

Book Review

I like the part at the where the dad answers and the boy said "hi dad"on the phone!

 

I think that it is aimed at parents and kids because the parents can read the story to the child who is nagging for for a phone and after the child heard the story the child would be saying "mom I don't wanna a phone anymore!"

 

8/10

Jamuel Hussain  

The phone goes dead review

The story had a good story line to it and a good idea for the topic, but I wanted it to be longer so it would be more interesting. I think the the short story (the phone goes dead) is aimed at teenagers because the topic is about when David had his first phone and people in year 7&8 normally buy their first phone. I would give the story 5 stars because the story was interesting.

My trip to the Symphony Hall

Today was a great day. I had lots of fun. I would like to thank Mrs Derrick for planning the trip.

When we first got there I was amazed at how big it was and how many schools were there.  I felt lucky that we had been given this amazing chance to watch the concert. I could not believe how many pupils were seated around us. We got the best seats though, we could see everything perfectly!

I heard different sounds and even learnt more about music and the instruments that can animal and bird sounds. I enjoyed listening to the music and watching the way the conductor was bringing different instruments in smoothly. I found out that there are a lot of people playing different violins and that drums are also used in that type of music to keep the beat. The conductor was controlling the music. 

By Adam Year 7

A trip to the Symphony Hall

On Thursday 13th June year 7 went to the Symphony Hall to listen to famous pieces of music. I enjoyed the music and it was peaceful listening to it. Many other people came from other schools and listened to it. The pieces of music were to do with Birmingham cities history and how it ended up being played today. 

They were a huge orchestra group which played very well and I enjoyed the day. The place looked bigger than a castle with hundreds of people enjoying the music being played. The music went well, thanks to the conductor who told them all what to do. 

They were all in time and in tune and the two schools who sang were brilliant and sang very well. The day went well, better than I imagined. If I was lucky I might go somewhere like that again and spend the afternoon listening to music! 

By Faizah Begum Year 7

Symphony Hall

I enjoyed going to the Symphony Hall! Today was amazing, we all went quiet when the orchestra was playing. The man who was introducing himself to us was incredible!

When I stepped inside it was really big! There were loads of primary and secondary schools there and it was awesome! I loved listening to them play and the primary schools who sang there were brilliant. I have learnt a lot about musicians. 

There were lots of people there and I think we looked incredible because our ties were all done up and our shirts were all tucked in!

I really enjoyed my afternoon there, I'd love to go back again!  

By Faheen Khatun Year 7

Symphony Hall

Today was a really fun day! We went to the Symphony Hall to listen to famous pieces of music that had been created throughout Birmingham's history. When I first thought of it I thought it was going to be boring but then I realised to not judge a book by it's cover. When I first stepped into the Symphony Hall Orchestra I was completely dazzled by the hall. It was enormous! I was also shocked to see so many instruments, like; a harp; a big bass drum and an oboe. To be honest I've only heard of these instruments, I've never seen so many unique instruments. After a while when the musicians finished tuning their instrument they began to playa dull, gloomy piece of music which I kind of enjoyed.

The conductors were guiding the musicians beautifully to make a lovely piece of music which I am sure the schools enjoyed. The orchestra played several pieces of music which was explained to us so we knew when it was made and where they got their inspiration from. 

My favourite piece was the World War II Spitfire. 

I would like to thank Mrs Derrick and the members of staff for taking the time to organise this. 

By Aysheen Lakhani Year 7

Symphony Hall

Today was the day we went to theSymphony Hall. It was really cool because  a man was talking before and after the orchestra played. I really enjoyed it. It was really peaceful. The man who talked was funny at times. The conductor was the most important person, otherwise they would all be playing the wrong notes! When the conductor was conducting he was kind of dancing a little. For a second, I wondered whether he was just having fun or whether all conductors do that? Each school sang two songs each. They were  actually good singers! 

Thanks to Mrs Derrick for making this possible! It was incredible!

By Athya Yasmin Year 7

Symphony Hall

Today I went to the Symphony Hall and I saw a lot of singing and dancing.

It was really fun and interesting. I saw a lot of new instruments. The noise the instruments were making was incredible and beautiful, it was really extraordinary.

I learnt how much small instruments can make such a big noise. It was really extraordinary. I was like nothing I've ever seen in my life!

By Zishan Khan Year 7

Symphony Hall

Today was an amazing day, we all went quiet and the orchestra started to play! The man that was introducing us to the orchestra told us about Birmingham's history. There were lots more other schools and they were enjoying it too. They were also children singing with the orchestra and they were really formal. There were different conductors and they were conducting different music, it was extraordinary! 

Thank you Mrs Derrick for the trip, I learnt a lot about the orchestra and saw lots of different instruments.

Watoto Choir Trip

Aston Manor Academy took year 7 to go and watch the Watoto Choir perform at the Mount Zion Church recently. The pupils' got a lot from the experience and loved watching the peroformances and hearing the stories the choir had to tell.

Pupils' from the trip have written some superb reviews of their day and of the Watoto choir and the excellent work they do - please read the reviews below!

http://www.watoto.com/home

Watoto Choir

The choir was really important because it was talking about children in Africa that have no mum or dad and that don't go school, have no food or have no house.

There was a girl that told us a story that she was really poor and she had no family or house or never got to go school until she was rescued. It was a really sad story, she was really poor and now look she is really famous isn't that great!

We went to a ceremony that was 2 minutes away from our school. We were really lucky to see this choir, that is a day to remember.

I was really impressed by their dancing and singing it was brilliant! In England you would not get that type of dancing!

These children were from Africa.

It was really good! I thought It was really fun, the story they told us was like a message because the people that are living a good life could be poor just in a second.          

By Nadel Year 7

Watoto Choir Review

The choir is important because it is about children from Uganda who have lost one or both of their parents and have been rescued by the Watoto foundation and given clothes and food and a education. Over 3,000 children have been rescued but they know there is still more children out there, that's why they  need you to sponsor them. 

I was very impressed knowing they can still keep a smile on their face and dance even after saying their sad past.

I would recommend going to see them, it's lots of fun and its for a very good cause and you could  put a smile on someone's face who has nothing and give them a bright future by sponsoring them.

Darius Simon Year 7

Watoto Choir Review

We went into a building 2 minutes away from Aston Manor Academy, this was where the Watoto children performed to the schools that were invited. They were in very colourful and traditional clothes. I was very impressed with them because they are always smiling and doing their best to impress a big audience, they were singing and doing some dance routines.

This is a good thing because they are putting their terrifying and bad life behind them and enjoying their new life that they deserve. They are very special and unique children that have had such a bad life in the past but still managing to come out on a big stage to sing and dance in front of a really big audience. These children come from Uganda, a place in Africa.

By Bobbie 7S

Watoto Choir

The Watoto is a group of African children who have lost 1 or 2 parents in the war in Uganda. However the Watoto foundation took them in from the streets and gave them the chance to sing, dance, eat, sleep in a home and let them go to school. I think the Watoto is very good because they give children another chance to have another life and forget their old life.

Everything they perform they must feel amazing after because they always make the whole room feel electric!

By Shemika Year 7

Watoto choir review

The watoto is a group of African people who take in little children that are living on the streets. Every child that have been taken in by the watoto have been educated and have learnt how to dance and sing.they have been around the world performing songs and dancing and they have become world famous. They have got a lot of songs to sing to every one around the world.

When ever they sing and finish every one is on there feet to clap for there brilliant work. The children are not embarrassed to sing In front of a crowd which is very hard. They wear way different clothes from us they are not like us we have a lot of clothes to wear unlike them, they probably have about two pairs of trousers and one pair of shoes. They have a lot of people on the watoto team to look after the children.

Watoto Choir Review

When we first got into the church it was very colourful, there was lights and instruments everywhere, like drums and tambourines and a lot more. At first a little girl from the Watoto choir came on to the stage and told us about how she lived with no parents and how it felt to be a street kid and drink dirty water from the sea and where the rubbish is.

When the Watoto choir started to preform it amazed me, when I saw the little children and the adults putting all their effort into the performance. Not only could they dance but they could also sing, it was really good because of all the things the children went through they still kept strong and put a smile on their faces.

I was very impressed with their dancing and singing, they all lost one or two parents and the children and adults were all from Uganda. I think it is a good thing because when they do their concert they will raise money and with the money they give the people and children in Uganda who lived like them. I would recommended to pay to watch them do their concert because with the money you could help people with hard lives

By Sameer Suleman And Onajite Oberia Year 7

The Watoto Choir

The Watoto choir was amazing because they were performing great songs and dance moves and the thing that really stood out was that they were from a poor background without a family. They were homeless until the Watoto foundation found them and took them in to a special home to take them in.  

They were wearing bright clothes and they had a lot of energy for little young children and a little boy even did a backflip! If there was another concert like this around my area I would definitely go.

Watoto Choir Review

The choir was really interesting, fabulous and amazing. I was really surprised and happy to see the Watoto company change their lives, it must have been really hard for them and I am just so glad that they are being fed and treated nicely as they deserve and having a place to live. They gave them a new start in this world.

This choir is really important because it symbolises how people can change their lives. They were singing and dancing jumping everywhere and they are really energetic. It really gets you moving you feel like joining in with all the singing and dancing!

It's really lovely how people from other countries like Uganda in Africa can produce such a great performance! I think they have a great future all around this world. I will never forget what a great performance they did, it's one of the greatest things I have ever seen!

I enjoyed my experience. I would recommend that everyone goes to see this great choir!

By Zishan Khan 7A

Watoto

The Watoto choir is very important because these children lost one of their parents or both of their parents. To show their feels and respect they sing and tell their stories and how they became in the Watoto choir. Each of their stories are sad and shocking.

The watoto company has gave these children good life and everything they need and also a mummy to look after them.

I had been invited into the church to see the Watoto choir. They were fantastic. There was lots of singing, dancing, drumming and some of them told us their personal stories and how Watoto has helped them.
 

The Watoto children are from Uganda in Africa. Not only that, these children were known as a street kids but now they are world wide and performed the most special person in England (the Queen). Half of their money goes to the other Watato children in Uganda.
 

These children achieved their dreams and are trying to change their lives in the future and help those other children in Uganda who are in the same situation as them.

By Hamda Year 7

Watoto Choir Review.

The Watoto Choir were from Uganda, Africa. The Watoto Choir started off by the adults (in the choir) finding children, who were found as orphans, so when they found enough orphans, they began a choir (The Watoto choir). They come every year in different countries because they go on tour around the world!

They tell people about their story, how they became what they are now. They all have different stories, some are the a little bit the same. The same stories we hear is that their parents left them all alone.

They told everyone to perform with them, their clothes were bright, most of the songs were cheerful and the Watoto Choir was excellent.

Watoto Choir Review

The watoto choir was amazing! It showed people what it is about and how they found happiness. They sang and danced and told us how their lives have changed because of Watoto. We went into a massive room with lots of seats and a stage.

I was very impressed with the overall performance because it was not what I was expecting. The kids were all found in Uganda and the Watoto company helped them and gave them a home if they had 1 or no parents. They raise them and put them into a family and get things we do. They need to raise money to save the kids in Uganda and give them a better future. They were all brilliant with their singing and dancing. They told great stories about how they got a better future.

First when I came in, I didn't think it was normal singing and dancing but when it was over, I knew I was right! It was nothing like normal dancing, it's was better!

I think this was a great performance and I strongly recommend it to anyone! You will never regret watching it! You will never forget the moment of seeing them. They will appreciate you watching their performance and know how much you care. Hopefully you enjoy the performance.

Watoto Choir Review

Recently I have went to a concert and it was about children from Uganda. The children who had taken part in the watoto concert have had 1 or 2 of there parents have died during war. This choir is important because they told us about how watoto had helped them , how watoto  had gave them a home , how they gave them a family and cloths to wear.                                                                                    There was a lot of things happening there was singing and dancing there was two young girls that told us about there life.this was performed at a church.                                                                                    i was so impressed because they have had a very hard past and  they forgot about that and they are looking forward to the future.I would definitely recommend them because it is so fantastic!

Watoto Choir Review

To me, the choir is important because the children the who had a horrible, unfair life were turned into everything they wanted. There are many, MANY more kids who are having to suffer as I write. Watato helps these people, they try to make them live an amazing life. Not only does Watoto do that, but also they give the children education, food, clothing etc.

Kids who had suffered before are now in good hands, the children can sing and dance. For me they try to make others understand what has happened to them, which is a good idea. We went to a church near our school to see them perform, in a medium sized hall. They perform to hundred and hundreds of people.

I was impressed because they didn't just perform in front of us, they performed in front of the Queen for her birthday and in the White House. I was impressed because before they came to Watoto they were children who lived on the streets, now they perform live in front billions of people, if at was me I would be nervous and scared.

By Fathea Begum Year 7

Watoto Choir Review

Firstly, this choir is very important because they came all the way from Africa to perform dancing singing and loads more. Also it took them some time to find each other and get as a choir. Also some of them have only one parent and some have none.

Furthermore, they were dancing, singing and telling stories. I was very impressed because I've never seen anything like that before. I felt amazing when I went to see it.
 

Moreover,all the children and adults are from Africa but are from different places in Africa. We went to a church to see the choir. Also they are famous because they performed this in front of the Queen.
 

Finally, this is a good thing for them as a choir because when they get money they give it to the people who live on the streets. Also, I would like to see them again because I really liked it and it was interesting.
 

By Zairah 7TZM

Watoto Choir

The choir is very important because these children have gone through a hard time and it is very important to give them some happiness.

At the choir they were happy and enjoying themselves. They were dancing and singing, their dance was very special. In the choir everyone was happy and clapping with them. It was all set at a church down the road from the best school; Aston Manor Academy. The church was big and clean. I think they have done really well for themselves. I am over the moon because first they were nothing and now they are famous and have made it! It is also worth going to because it was exciting and the best thing is that they don't bore you!

Watoto Choir Review

There were lots of children there with bright clothes on. They told us about their stories; they might have been abandoned or one of their family members had died. Therefore the Watoto company went together to Uganda and find the poor abandoned children and the rescue them and they then made the group tighter and performed songs and danced. They were really entertaining, I loved it a lot. My favourite bit of it was when they talked about the safari and told us about the animals which are most popular like the lion. I think I am going to listen to them. It was worth it and I enjoyed it a lot and it was a great experience.

The dancing and singing was good and they are really confident and have become famous and have performed all over the world and even in front of the Queen.

Bath Night by Anthony Horowitz

The story was very interesting. It was very engaging and was grabbing the readers attention. The story was about a girl called Isabel. Her parents ordered a bath which previously belonged to someone who used to kill women. Isabel believed the the bath was haunted by an unwelcomed presence which tried to kill Isabel many times! The story is gripping before it delivers its killer punch in the end!

Bath Night!

In the Anthony Horowitz's book, 'Bath Night' a girl called Isabel is weary of the new Victorian bath her parents have bought from an antiques shop...

We like the Anthony Horowitz book, 'Bath Night', because it suits children of all ages that like a thrill and a cliffhanger ending!

By Nia and Hanan Year 8

Bath Night Review

Anthony Horowitz's book, Bath Night, has some horror, gore and blood. It is a very fascinating and interesting book and it is aimed at older people.

This book really gets the reader thinking, it creates an image in the readers head. It makes the reader get hooked in and gives the reader a deep insight into Anthony Horowitz's mind and encourages the reader to carry on reading. It has a twist at the end which is an unexpected cliff hanger which gives the book an immense effect!

In our opinion we think this book is very fascinating and made us want to carry on reading and it built up tension. To finish off we would recommend this book to ages 10 and over and rate it 10 out of 10!

Bath Night By Anthony Horowitz

Bath Night

Bath night is a short story about a 12 year old girl called Isabel and she has parents who love antique furniture.

One day the parents come home with a Victorian bath. Isabel has a nasty feeling  that the bath is waiting for her...but it won't be a bubble bath she gets, more like a bloodbath!

Bath night is a book that filled with tension, suspense and mystery. The book ends on a cliff hanger which leaves the audience thinking. I would recommend the book to older people interested in thrillers!

Bath Night Book Review

We think that the book written by Anthony Horowitz called Bath Night is great story to read. It is about a little girl with the name of Isabel and her parents who buy an old Victorian bath.

Isabel didn't like the bath her parents bought. The first time she tried to use her new bath, blood started pouring out of the tap and the tap started to cough like a heavy smoker of 40 years old!

She didn't want to tell anybody about this experience because she might be laughed at.

I strongly recommend that the people who might be quite intrigued by horrors or thrillers!

This book is suited for children around the age of 13 plus; but the people who read this book would have to have a strong heart because there are scary parys in the story!

Bath Night Review

The astonishing short story Bath Night is a very interesting, toe curling thriller that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. However the improvement could be that there should be no cliffhanger for it will leave you dying to read more. If you like to read short stories with an amazing thriller this is the story for you!

Bath Night

This book is aimed at people who like reading horror stories. Children and teenagers like reading these kinds of books therefore they'd would be interested, because in the end there was a clever twist with a cliffhanger, which makes the readers think about the ending and leaves them guessing.

This book was fantastic and really amazing. Anthony Horowitz is really clever, he wrote the book in a clever way.

Review of Bath Night by Anthony Horowitz

This book was a very interesting book to read, it is more likely aimed at children/teens that enjoy reading horror and spooky things.

This book had very short interesting snappy scenes which made this book enjoyable. This book was about a 12 year old who's parents bought her a new Victorian bath tub.

However little did they know, that this bath tub was no ordinary bath tub but also a haunted one. Her parents didn't believe her and this makes it interesting for us because it creates more suspense and we can relate to her. We highly recommend this book to those who enjoy reading shorter books rather than longer ones. :)
