Book Review

Title: Horrible Histories - Rowdy Revolution (special)
Author: Terry Deary

2) Summary

This book gives tales on rebellions and revolutions from the earlier days to the present days. It shows how people revolt and rebel and their results. The results are usually unsuccessful and were executed and killed.


3) Describe at least two things you have learnt or notice from the book that fascinated you.
3a) I learnt how revolutions and rebellions can happen. Some were sucessful like Count Dracular.

3b) The writer of this book shows many pictures or comics to explain the histories, this helps the reader to understand better.The history on suffering slaves. It talked about pregnant women carrying big laods. If the baby was born on the jorney. They will put the baby on the top of the load. The book have a picture of a woman carrying loads with a child on the load. It helped me visualize the situation.


5) Recommendation:

The histories given in the book is interesting. It teaches me more about revolutions in the past and present
