Chloe-WTWB Reflection

When the Wind Blows

I thought this story was a bit funny because James kept on yelling at Ducks and saying words that Ducks had never heard before.

The labour herald said “This book deserves a wide audience and should be compulsory reading. “ I think it a good book for everyone to read because when you read it there’s a joke to it.

The guardian said “ It is meant to break your heart to some purpose. “ I think it meant to break your heart because it sad that they are trying to survive by living in a shelter.
