A Language of Dragons by SF Williamson
Srousha Chhabria Bisht student, Ascend International School, BKC
The book is set in 1923 London. The dragons and humans have a whole system and a peace treaty, and a girl called Vivien Featherswallow wants to become a skilled dragon linguist. My friend gave me this book, and it is lovely. I like reading about dragons, but most of the time I get recommended, Wings of Fire. I was happy to find something else about the subject. I admire Vivien’s determination throughout the book.

The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart
Dhwani Jain student, JBCN Parel
It’s a thrilling adventure mystery highlighting the importance of friendship. I loved the talent that the characters in the book had and the genius with which the novel was planned. The cliffhanger at the end was absolutely toe-curling. If you don’t have hours to read it, don’t start, because this book is totally unputdownable.

The minute I picked it up I knew that I wouldn’t be able to stop. It is an enthralling, exciting series about a girl and two of her friends who can travel into books. They go into many different books, meet different characters, encounter sinister villains, and always win in the end. And there are six books in the series, so it’s all the more fun.
