Horrible Science: Disgusting digestion

Horrible science disgusting digestion is an spectacular book by Nick Arnold and Tony De Saulles. It is a non-fiction genres and concerns all dreadful details your teacher won’t tell you like why astronauts can’t eat beans before a flight. 

Facts about digestion is what the book is all about but also contains the squishy bits of it. Every chapter includes a part of the digestive system like the guts or the mouth and more facts all about enzymes and deadly digestive diseases. 

There are a few chapters with some foul facts that you though were true and the discoveries that scientists made about the food you eat or your metabolism. 
What truly amazed me about this book is that it is informative yet entertaining due to including humorous 

Illustrations as well as awful examples. If you love science and learning trivia, after reading a few pages you learn a tremendous amount of knowledge all about the process of digestion that you never knew were true. 

I highly recommend this book. All readers will enjoy and will have a hard time putting it down. They will enjoy the gruesome representation of the facts and will laugh at the hilarious pictures of it.

The Werepuppy

The Werepuppy another superb book by Jacqueline Wilson that's about a lonely kid called Mickey who bought a weird puppy to cure his phobia of dogs.

Mickey is a sensitive kid. One night his parents went out so he and his sisters watch a horror movie about werewolves. So from then the problem started, he had cynophobia. His dad was very disappointed by him because he wanted his son to be a real man. His sisters who were mean to him called him Mickey Mouse. A kid at school called Darren bullied him. Then one day he met a badly behaved werepuppy.

This book is full of superb moments, Wolfie is naughty and amusing. My favorite part is near the end but you have to read it yourself.

I thoroughly recommend this book, the readers will have a difficult time putting this wonderful book down without having any nightmares.

Making a Compass

Sailors have been using a compass for thousands of years when they navigate. Compasses always point to the magnetic North owing to the magnetic field of the Earth. It isn't difficult to make a compass! 

      To make a compass, we need a needle, a piece of brown paper, and some water. First, we magnetize the needle ( by rubbing it on cotton ). Second, we float it in the water with brown paper.

      The first problem, was that the paper sunk all the time, but then, we took a thicker piece of paper and it floated better. The second problem, was that we couldn't recognize which of the two ends were pointing North, but then, we solved the problem by looking at the sun.

      We had some problems, but we enjoyed making a compass! So, the next time I'm in a mountain, I'll know how to use it!!!!!!!
