private peaceful

Private peaceful Reviser Big Tony This book is a good book if you like to read war books. This book is about the adventures and experiences that a person had when he went to war. The bad thing about this book is that it is a made up story but it seems like it could have actually been somebody's life story. Michael Morpurgo wrote the book and he did a good job at writing it because when he describes the war and some parts of the war, you feel like you are in the book with the characters and fighting with them in the battlefields. The only thing I really didn't like about the book was that it had butterflies on the cover of the book. I thought it made it look like it wasn't going to be one of the better war books, but I was wrong. It was a good book; so don't judge this book by the cover. Pick it up and read it because if you like fiction war books about people's lives then you will like this book.

A MUST READ!!!

Private Peaceful is a must read book by Michael Morpurgo and I would reccomend it to people from 10 years onwards. This is because it is a quite long book and has some complicated words. The novel is about the Peaceful brothers , Charlie and Tommo, and their life story. The Peaceful brothers venture into war at a young age and the tension and excitment goes up from there. The book is a novel of romance,war friendships and realationships. All of these features add to the exellence of the book. GET THE BOOK NOW!!! Daniel,11,Wantage

I may be a kid, but please take my advise!!

This is a romantic emotional read. It shows what familys are for, and what sacrfices people made to defend us in the war. It had me in tears by the end (which is unusual as I can never seem to find deep emotion in normal books),it is as if you have known the characters all your life, and I for one will never take soliders for granted, it told me that being part of a country is like being part of a family, just because we complaine about them dosn't mean they do not have a warm place in our hearts.

I kno im a kid, but i can say something important

this book, i thought was touching and wonderfully written... the characters were insightful, and deep, and the plot was full of action, emotion, and even a little romance. i could not put this book down because it was really exciting...i smiled and cried....
