Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, As some of you may know, if you follow what goes on in my main blog, on Thursday I celebrated my 15th birthday. I was given quite a few books to read. The list goes like this: Let Sleeping Vets Lie by James Herriot It Shouldn't Happen To A Vet by James Herriot   Man's Search For Meaning by Viktor E.Frankel   War Horse by Michael Morpurgo   The Choice by Edith Eger   The Homage To Catalonia by George Orwell I'm really excited to read all the books but I'm most excited to read The Choice by Edith Eger because it's about a dancer who survived Auschwitz. She was sent there at the age of 16 and she was made to dance for the infamous Josef Mengele. Surprisingly, when the camp was liberated, she was pulled from a pile of bodies, barely alive. This sounds like a truly inspirational story and I can't wait to read it. I'm also excited to read Man's Search For Meaning by Viktor E. Frankel....

Around year 5 and year 6, I really enjoyed reading Jacqueline Wilson books whilst all of my other friends began to read the Harry Potter books. I was a big fan. Which was why I got the privilege  to see her at my friends school. I also received a signed copy of her newest book at the time, Katy. That story was also sad but very heart warming at the same time. So let's find out more about her: Name: Dame Jacqueline Wilson Age: 72 years old Year/month she was born in: December 17, 1945 Birthplace: Bath, Engla...
