Book review: Adoette

Adoette by Lydia Monks

I love this book because it is about the past and present. I really like the last page because it is so colourful and full of nature! 

Adoette means ‘big tree’ and this book has taught me how hard it is to fight for something you love. I felt calm and peaceful when I was reading this book. I actually liked the sad part because it made the people come together. I would recommend this book to other kids because it’s fun!
