Book Review: Butter

Book Title: Butter
Author: Erin Lange

Review:
An excellent story about a larger than average boy who is bullied by his classmates. It is these children who have given him the nickname 'Butter'. A talented saxophonist, he spends most of his time alone in his bedroom playing his saxophone or logging on to a social networking site. Things change when he sets up his
own blog under his nickname and announces that on New Years Eve he will eat himself to death, inviting anyone who want to, to watch on Skype! Will he follow this through? Read the book to find out.....

I'd give it: 8/10

Did you know.......

It's Black History Month?

And this year, the focus is on the arrival on the Windrush ship 65 years ago, when 492 Caribbean
passengers arrived in Tilbury Dock, Essex.

Symbolically, these people would become known as the 'Windrush Generation' and were seen as the beginning of post-war mass migration.
