My book review
A few weeks ago, I created a book review on request for it to be posted on a magazine . I chose to do it on the Boy of the Back of the Class. Here is my review.↓
Introduction
I had a lot of fun writing up this review. I think it is very thorough, concise and has a great use of vocabulary. What do you think of it?

Introduction
The Boy At the
Back Of the Class is a great book by Onjali Q. Rauf because it reveals the
hardship of people escaping the war in Syria and a strong connection between
two people.
Summary
A refugee boy came
to a school where the narrator and her best friends go to. The narrator became
friends with Ahmet (the refugee boy) and Brendan-the-bully was being mean to
him so they had a fight. Ahmet won and so Brendan got revenge by putting a can
of baked beans into Ahmet’s red bag. He tries to wash it off but the smells and
stains stayed. The narrator learned more about Ahmet’s background story and how
he got into the school and country. Ahmet and his family were running from a
war in Syria and they all got separated. Unfortunately, Ahmet’s cat died whilst
going on a boat to Greece. They had to move to many different countries to get
as far as possible from the war. After hearing this, the narrator decided to
write a letter to the Queen to help Ahmet find his parents and sister. They all
secretly travel to London to give the letter to the Queen – who was in
Buckingham palace. Ahmet and the narrator entered the palace compound without
permission from the special guards and gave the letter to the man in the gold
coat to give to the Queen. The queen replied and told them that they are
searching for his parents and sister. She also wanted to have tea with them
sometimes. She eventually found them and Ahmet was reunited with his family.
Opinions
My favourite part
of the book was when Ahmet and the narrator got famous and was in the newspaper
for entering Buckingham palace’s compound. My least favourite part was when
Brendan was pouring the can of baked beans into Ahmet’s bag. I went through a
sea of emotions whilst reading that book: joy, contentment, sadness and hope. I
knew that Ahmet would do anything to get back with his family. My favourite
character is the narrator because she is very kind and sympathetic towards
Ahmet and she wanted to become friends with him regardless of his background.
