Gems buried in books! Pupils lining up to get their copy of ‘Time Travelling with a Hamster’.

On Thursday the 28th of January a very talented author came to our school. This amazing author goes by the name of Ross Welford.

Ross was inspired by his children. They were constantly asking him to write them a story, so he eventually tried. He pondered a lot on how to start the book, but finally it hit him while he was reading another book called ‘Wonder’. Not only is Ross an amazing author but he is a talented artist, and also a bit of a comedian, as you can tell in the book.

This book is a real page turner, and lots of people around the world think so too. Even though it has just come out, it has some amazing reviews, and almost every review has been five stars.

Here are some things others have said. ‘This was an extraordinary read; it kept me on the edge of my chair. I love the characters and think they all give something to the book .

Another person said 'This book has a rollercoaster of emotions and it ends with a cliff-hanger. I would really like to read a sequel.’

‘The title – I mean who WOULDN’T want to know about time travelling? And with a HAMSTER! And boys, Alan Shearer. I mean come on.’   

If you like danger, mysteries and adventure, maybe this book is for you!

Laugh, cry and wonder at this race-against-time story of a boy who travels back to 1984 to prevent a go-kart accident, and save his father’s life…
