Review of Pippa Goodhart's, All That Glitters

Review by Georgia,  aged 11 from Mackay, Australia.    Rating: Brilliant.

Opinion of the plot.
It's about a girl called Locket Morrian who is very rich, In fact so rich that she is a 'valuble item'. She doesn't like the idea of this and hates being closed up and protected.  She studies alchemy and sets out to make gold common... so SHE won't be classed as a valuble thing.  I love it. I think you all should read it... (anyone aged 8 to 14)



Favourite character and why?
Proably Locket because she is smart, funny and the main one in the book.

Who will the book appeal to most and why?
I think that people aged 8 to 14 with a good imagination and a likeness for advebturous mystery books should read all that Glitters.

Would you recommend the book and why?
I was leaving school and my friend gave me the book as a leaving present.
Her Mum was the author! (And the book dedicated to her).

Could any improvements be made and how?
I don't think any improvements could be made... except it wasn't that lond for VERY fast readers like me. But stil... I great!

Read some more reviews.

Have you sent in some work recently that you can't find?
We're very sorry.  We've got lots of your work coming in every day and we're putting it up as soon as we can.
