HOW TO WRITE A BOOK REVIEW - EXAMPLE
Title - If I never Forever Endeavour
Author – Holy Meade
Introduction:
A small yellow bird muses on what would happen if they
just stay in the safety of their nest, because though there
would be new things to see, there is also plenty of fear .
Of course, if they stay, then there is no flying, no soaring,
and no making a new friend to share the air with. This
book will speak to anyone looking to make a change, try
something new, or just test the wind a bit.
HOW TO WRITE A BOOK REVIEW - EXAMPLE
Like - Children should learn that trying new things can be
scary, but sometimes when we try, we can find things that
make us happy too. And this book will help children, know
that mistakes are okay and part of learning.
Dislike - The little bird’s struggle to fly reflects a
human fear of change, failure, and rejection.
Conclusion:
It teaches children that we learn about ourselves, make
new friends, and learn new lessons by expanding our horizons,
testing our skills, and transcending our limitations. There are so
many opportunities we might miss or new things about the
world that we may never discover unless we search for them.
"We'll never know if we don't try."
