Iv'e not seen the film Eragon, but heard it wasn't so good?? Having read the books, really don't want to be disappointed by the film if it's bad! Probably wont watch it.

I am reading a book called 'Tears of the Moon' by Di Morrisey its about the Pearling industry back in the early days of the new settlers in Australia, Its set in Broome. West Australia.
I'm reading it because I have stayed in Broome and done the Pearling mueseums and the pearl shops and seen the old pearling boats

It's about Dragons, Dragon Riders, Elves, Dwarfs, Magic etc. Reminds me a bit about Lord of the Rings
This thread is great!
This series of books sound like they shall have to be added to my list. And by the sounds of things the OH will love them too. Thanks

I am currently reading 'The last song' by Nicholas Sparks. Never seen the film and don't particularly want to unless I really like the book when I'm done. So far the book is making me really want to learn how to play the piano!

I just don't seem to find the time to read. All I read is the books that the class at school are reading so I have to know the story to beable to help them in their work. I sometimes just read the 'blurb' though, lol

I read with all my kids daily plus a read-aloud book we read a couple of chapters of each day.
I read in bed, in the bath and take my book to the beach, read it on the garden when it's warm enough, etc. I'd rather read than sit and watch a load of rubbish on the tv if nothing good is on.

What age kids are you a TA for, Lynne? Some of the kids books are pretty good these days and I really enjoy reading them with the kids.
