Review of The Girl with the Silver Eyes

This book is totally added in my favourites. The main character Katie is just awesome, she has telekinesis which is really cool. But she is different than other children. Why? Because she has silver eyes. Katie is one of the children who likes being a normal child and does not like being called ‘something out of the box’. She takes revenge on people she does not like and helps those she likes. Soon, Katie discovers children like her and comes to know the secret of her powers.

I really like this book because it is so old and still it sounds as if it is just recently published. Today’s generation might not think that it’s too great, now that we’ve got DC and Avengers all over the world but if you read it, it will come to your mind that it is very different from ‘superheroes’. Another great thing I like about this book is that how Katie yearns to find out about children like her and how she is always wanting people to call her ’normal’. Written by Willo Davis Roberts in 1970, I really love this book and I was caught reading this book in school. The photo on the cover page is Katie moving the apple with her telekinesis powers.

Anne of Green Gables

Anne of Green Gables “Matthew Cuthbert, who’s that?” ”Where is the boy?” “There wasn’t any boy, there was only her .” While Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are waiting for the arrival of a boy orphan they are taken by surprise by the arrival of Anne Shirley, a girl. Amused by Anne, Matthew takes a liking to her and does not want to return her to the orphan asylum. Marilla also does not want to give her away so they finally have to keep her and Anne has a new home. But Anne is very peculiar in many ways. Will she fit in Avonlea? Nobody knows. I look on this book with favor because it is humorous in every way. I encourage you to read this book as it is very delightful and is appropriate for almost all ages. The most fun part is Anne’s mistakes, she does something mistakenly and later on hers and Marilla’s reaction is very fun to read. This book is also very good for children who want to improve their vocabulary as Anne is peculiar in the way of using too big and compli...

Review of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone Book

The series of Harry Potter is written by the celebrated author J.K.Rowling. The first book of the series is Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. It all starts when Harry was brought up by his late mother’s sister, Petunia Dursley her husband and spoilt child, Dudley who in harry’s opinion was a pig with a wig. Then on his birthday Harry came to know all the truth about his and that he was accepted in the school of Hogwarts. Along with his two best friends Hermione and Ron, they fought many encounters together and finally saved the Philosopher’s Stone from being by none other than the Dark Lord himself. The Dark Lord or rather Lord Voldemort was the reason of harry’s mysterious past, Lord Voldemort had killed harry’s parents but had failed to kill Harry and he had instead gotten a scar. This novel is so popular that the movies were also made and had been a very big hit. The reason for this is because of the unique world of magic J.K.Rowling has created bout wands...

Review of Book - Pygmalion

The word pygmalion effect means that people are influenced by the expectations built on them. In simpler words, it means that people are dependent and have complete faith on what others say. A word opposite to pygmalion effect is galatea effect, which means that people are independent and care on what they themselves think or feel.These meanings have great significance in the book which we come to know later as we read on. ‘Pygmalion’ this book is about a cockney flower girl who is very poor in the field of phonetics. Her dream is to become a lady in a flower shop but to achieve that goal her pronunciation needs improving.
