I really enjoyed Pig Heart Boy it is about a boy called Cameron he had a heart virous and he only had a few months to live and there was no human donors so he had a pigs heart instead the pig was called Trudy but Cameron’s body was rejecting the heart at first he did not want another heart if you want to find out if he got the heart read Pig Heart Boy by Malorie Blackman available from your local book shop!!!!!
I am also really exited about reading Letters From the Light House because it is set in the time of the war and that really interest me.
I am loving this book so far it is so interesting but I’m just lucky my teaches So nice that she reads to us every single day except for the weekends and one the days when she’s off she’s got to be the best teacher I’ve ever had
This book is about a boy who sadly has a heart disease and the only available donor is a pig heart when he finally make the decision to use the heart the news gets out but who shares it.
I really enjoyed pigs heart boy as I think it was a really entertaining, sad and happy book.
I would definitely give this book a 5/5 rating!!
My favorite character was Marlon and cam as I think there friendship was really close and they forgave each other and were really quite cool!
My favorite part of the book was when they went to meet Trudy and found out mum was pregnant with baby Alex.
I would recommend this book to everyone who loves reading a good story because it has a great story line and has lots of ups and downs.
I am really enjoying letters from the lighthouse and I am very excited to start reading the rest and find out was has happened to Suki and the e rest of the family.
I enjoyed Pig Heart Boy because it was interesting that camron got a pigs heart to stay alive and all the controversy around the heart when he got the heart.
My favourite character was Camerons nan even though she didn’t appear much in the book she was nice to Cameron and gave a good message to Cameron before she died.
My favourite part of the book is when we found out that Camerons mum was pregnant because it was a thing that came out of nowhere.
I would rate this book 5/5 because I really enjoyed it.
This book was a really sad but funny book of a boy who needed a pigs heart or he would die with a baby sister on the way. but overall my favourite part was when he was on a face time with his best friend in the hospital acting fine but he wasn’t excited at all. I’m really excited for the next I don’t know pages left of our new book which was chosen by our class

I really enjoyed pig heart boy it was a great book and about a boy called Cameron who got a heart virus. Sadly, he only had a few months to live. There were no human donors to offer Cameron a heart so he had to get a pigs heart hence the name. His body rejected his heart so his life was cut short again. Read on to find out the rest!
I would give this book a 10/10
I would recommend this book to age 8+
I can’t wait to carry on with our new book. It’s great already!
