Blitzers
Book Review
This book is great for children who love gaming, it’s fun, fast and full of action!
I really loved Blitzers! It was super exciting and made me feel like I was right there with the characters on their adventure. I felt like I was part of the team, helping them along the way and playing my own Blitzer.
I liked it even more because I love gaming and this book felt just like being in an awesome game. I really wish I had a Blitzer too!
This book is great for children who love gaming, it’s fun, fast and full of action! My parents read it with me and they were really excited by the story too. They didn’t like missing a chapter every other night they always wanted to know what happened next!
I hope there’s a series because I want to read more stories like this. I’m also going to look for more books by Alastair Chisholm because this one was so cool.
I think I’ve found my next World Book Day character to dress up as – Danny the main character.
What a great book! I loved it.
