Nightmare Stairs 15 Mar 2011

By Welford Primary School, Year 5

Format:Paperback

It is an extremely good book because I picked this book from my school library and I even told my mother to buy one for home. There is a bit of a mystery to it. Even the title of this book made me even more eager to read this book. I hope you'll get the chance to read this extraordinary book. If you really liked it you can write a book review too. I hope you enjoyed my short book review.
