Benjamin’s Book Review Of Gone Away LakeBy
Benjamin Winokur-Applebaum
The book that I just read is called Gone Away Lake! I finished it a little while ago but now I can finally write about it!! It is By Elizabeth Enright
The reason I liked this book is because it has one picture per chapter. So I know what the scenes from the book look like when I need a picture in my head ! I also like this book because they describe it from the perspective of a child named Portia who is exposed to be looked at as the narrator/main character ! I also like the book because it is in the perspective of two time periods now(35 years ago)and 5,555 years ago! Also another reason I like this book is because about five people are the feelings in the book and that one person is telling all of the people about it! I also like that it has a bit of make believe in it!!
The plot is that there are two kid’s Portia and Julian (main characters). The two kids find a lake in the forest and they then start to explore and have adventures in the swamp. But they also might meet some people or things that you would not normally see in real life or in a swamp !!
There are tons of interesting flashbacks and stories of that some people tell that they meet in the story !!There are lots of people you will meet in this adventure and lots of names of animals. So if you like animals this is your book and if you are a story or surprises lover this is also your book !!
I recommend this book to you because it has laughs and screams and tells you stories that are fake but seem real. It gives you tips about nature!! That is why I recommend it to you to read !!!!
This is why I liked this book. It is called Gone Away Lake for you who do not remember !! So if you like anything that I said in this book review you should check this book out because it is in the public library’s. There are two books in the series Gone Away Lake and Return To Gone Away!! My name is ben and this is my book review for you !!!!!!!!!!!!!
ENJOY
