Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated Emmeline Pankhurst in Books
Apr 10, 2018
In the 100th year of women gaining the vote in the UK, this book is ideal for introducing young people to one of the leading names in that struggle. As a book in a school library or classroom, available for project work or a book borrowed from a library by an active parent, this book gives the background without being too over the top with the politics, allowing curious minds to question and discussions about equality and rights to follow.

Good soundtrack
Heartfelt funny film
Well I had high hopes for this after seeing the trailer. It is a cool and very funny film about a couple of friends who missed out on partying all year. So they aim to have a wild night to make up for it. It reminded me of a couple of other very good films about high school years. The soundtrack is pretty good as well. Maybe not quite a cult classic but still very enjoyable.

We Worship God by Nancy Streza is a beautiful book for preschool and elementary school aged children. The illustrations are wonderful and really add to the message. This is a very nice approach to the ABC's. It is rooted in the Bible and in the qualities that Jesus portrays. Each page covers a letter to the alphabet. This story not only teaches the alphabet but also about Jesus.

Brilliant British Film
A great British film, gritty and hard hitting and made on a shoe string budget. It doesn't matter, the story and acting make this a very powerful film and it deserves all the awards and accolades it has received.
A young boy bullied at school joins the local skinheads in early 80's Britain, but the fun and games soon start to turn nasty and violent.
Check out the spin off TV shows as well.

SSSPIDERS, SSSNAKES AND SSSECRETS
Harry Potter, my one true love!
It feels good reading the series again. It reminds me of being in secondary school, holing up in the library at lunchtime and devouring as many books as I could.
Honestly, though, the chamber of secrets was always my least favourite book but also my least favourite movie as well.
But, on rereading this book I absolutely loved it!

Honestly, who does not love this book. I, sadly, didn't even know about this book until I was in high school but I immediately went out and bought it for my daughter when I first learned I was pregnant. I have since carried on traditional and each of my kids have their own copy.
This book is an appropriate gift for baby showers, graduations, "milestone" birthdays, etc. And if you haven't read it yet then what are you waiting for?

Storyline
The world's guilty pleasure
This show is the one that everyone likes, but few people, especially guys, will admit they like. The show centers around half brothers, one is the good guy raised by his mom, and the other guy is a douche bag. They of course get into this sort of rivalry when the good brother joins the school basketball team. It's a fun show, and easy to get into. Check it out!

Welcome to the hellmouth, we've got double games. Slaughterhouse Rulez (2018) Review
If Hammer House Of Horror had produced “Spaced”, the result could have been a lot like “Slaughterhouse Rulez”. A common room home brew of British Boarding School classics like “If….”, “Goodbye, Mr. Chips” (the 1969 musical version specifically) mixed with “Ghostbusters” and dash of “Harry Potter”, this intoxicatingly lowbrow comedy horror offers a novel spin on the idea that British education has gone to the dogs....

Book Review | Girl Online by Zoella
I love this book it grabbed my on the first pages. I can't for the sequel if there is going to more of penny and noah.
I love how the characters interact with each other and how there is real life situation like cyber bulling and bullying at school. I like how Penny as been suffering with panic attack and how she copes through it this will be good to help people through their lives.
