    What I liked most about this book is that Cymbeline Igloo always has a way of making you smile, he has a way of making you almost forget everything and just being engulfed within the life of a young boy , who has to deal with a lot a such a young age. This book is definitely a comedy, but there a...

    An interesting, funny book for everyone of 10 or older. A book about a boy named Cymbeline Igloo (yes that's his real name) has never been swimming before like EVER.

    Genre: Friends and family

    I like the way this book is set out because it's a bit of a cliff hanger at the start because the boy never found out why he never had a chance to go swimming but his dad died when he was very young and his mum never told him what caused that either so at the start I thought the reason that he wa...

    I have just reacently got boy under water and I'm already enjoying it. The blurb hooks you in and makes you wonder why he has never went swimming. It is funny and also mysterious. Cym is a strong character who has a sense of humour. I would rate this book for the age of 9+

    The Train to Impossible Places

    Name: Luke Age 11

    Genre: Adventure

    I like that Suzy can hold her ground when she was arguing with the troll and when she took the snow globe from Lady Crepsucular because someone was trapped in it. I found it funny when Suzy did her physics homework; as when her mum and dad told her to have a break she wouldn't and it said she h...

    I like that it is funny because he talked about something then goes back into his past story which is a bit different to the many books I have read but I still really like it.

    In my opinion I am enjoying this book , Cymbeline Igloo (Yes really) the main character/boy has never once been swimming in his life. He doesn't understand why his mum has never took him swimming but is trying to find out. His dad passed away when he was young and has a funny feeling that it h...

    Genre: Friends and family

    I liked this book a lot! Mainly because it has a lot of mystery. It has 2 main plots with 3 side mysteries alongside. These are always solved one way or another. I liked the comedy in Boy Underwater, it makes subtle jokes and breaks the fourth-wall in some points of the book to take a short bre...
