MY REVIEW

9-12 year-olds will find Chronicles Of A Lizard Nobody, highly hilarious! I loved it! In our days at school we had prefects that were given the responsibility for supervising students during lunch break and settings good example. In this funny children’s book animals play a part of being in school. Principal Wombat, appointed Lizard Zeke, and Daniel to Hall Monitors. For any one who doesn’t have a hall pass, Zeke has the job to take names down. But when a fight breaks out between Lizard Zeke and a bird named Pelicarnassus, Principal Wombat, is very unhappy about violence in the school and expelled Zeke. Find out what more happens in this hilarious new school comedy from multi-award-winning author Patrick Ness. I’m looking out for book 2.

I would like to thank Walker Books for sending me this funny book by Patrick Ness, as he is one of my favourite writers.
