Pre Reading Post Term 4

Book covering: The first thing I spotted was the person that looked like a detective & the police car.


Title: The name Madam spry & the blue diamond well definitely make people need to buy this book really bad.


Blurb: The blurb makes me really really want to read because it is so mysterious & exciting adventure ahead to see.


I think the story is based on a one lost fantastic blue diamond & a super secret spy on the case to discover who, how stole the fantastic blue diamond that belongs to a famus museum. Probably someone stole it because they wanted to be rich & famous.
