Monster Down Deep
Book Review
If you like stories that make your heart beat fast this book is for you!
I really liked this story! It is SO good! If you like stories that make your heart beat fast this book is for you.
Its sad that Cassie’s dad aquarium is on the verge of closing down but its cool that Cassie takes ‘Sylvia’ her metal detector to try and find treasure to help him.
It’s really cool that blue can understand Cassie but im not sure what I would do if I needed lots of money to help my family but then had to choose between keeping blue a secret and helping him home or telling people to get the money.
My favourite part was when Cassie told blue that she didn’t expect him to trust her without her risking her life and she climbed into the tank.
The way the writer explains it it feels like I was actually experiencing it. I especially like that the last chapter is Blue’s thoughts on being home.
