Harry Potter series by J K Rowling

These are the best books of all time. I could find no faults when reading these books. I would recommend these books to anyone who likes an adventure story.

The Great Switcheroonie by Alex Shearer

I like this book because it builds up the excitement on every page. As soon as a solution is made another problem presents itself. I would recommend this book for younger readers at the age of 7-11.

Noughts and Crosses, Knife Edge and Checkmate by Malorie Blackman

I like these books by Malorie Blackman because she is a master of suspense. She makes every sentence worth reading and she puts excitement into every word. I would highly recommend reading these books because I couldn’t put them down for a second.

King's School Library

Author, William Hussey, known as "the new master of dark fiction" visited The King’s School on 12 March 2010. The following is an extract from William's blog ...

“Last week, I was lucky enough to be invited by the Grantham and Barrowby Children’s Book Group (a really cool organisation that aims to get kids reading) into The King’s School in Grantham. King’s is an ancient school with beautiful buildings and a very famous ‘old boy’: Sir Isaac Newton! This connection was especially interesting for me as Sir Isaac was one of the few rational voices in the 17th Century who spoke out against the belief in evil spirits and the persecution of witches.
