Title: War Horse

Author: Michael Morpurgo

Publisher: Scholastic

First Published: 1982

This is a story about a boy called Albert and his horse Joey. Joey ends up going to the war. Albert is determined that they will re-unite. Joey serves on both sides of the war. Halfway through the way when he meets a ten year old girl called Emilie. Eventually Albert finds Joey and rides Joey home. They live happily ever after.

The one part in the story I liked was when Joey was re-united with Albert, because when Albert rides Joey back to the farm and Joey sleeps alongside old Zoey back in the stable.

 The part in the book I thought could have been improved was when Captain Nicholls got shot off Joey. Michael Morpurgo could at least have written anther paragraph.

Overall I thought this story was very good and interested me throughout the whole story and gave me a good picture throughout. I recommend this story to 10 years old and above because younger children might not know some of the formal Language.

We were asked to research one aspect of the history of flight. We had to put our ideas into paragraphs. How do you think I did?

The Jet Engine

In 1920 Frank whittle stared making the first jet engine. Believe  it or not  I actually thought jet were made in the early 1800. Anyway the jet engine was trialled in a N3 Hornet  well a short name for a jet plane and it worked.

The jet engine over the last 20 years has been improving and getting faster and faster. Did you know that the jet flies at 550 km an hour.

Jet engine works on a number of different fuels and fans. Fans pull the air through the turbo jet and forces it out again.

In conclusion, the  jet engine was an important thing to be able  to fly fast and it just made things a lot easier.
