Once again, Dorothy Woolfolk has outdone herself. In this magnificent book, another in the series of the “Donna Rockford
Mystery” books, The author finds yet a new way to thrill and excite the reader. I couldn’t stop reading because of the suspense.
The story begins with peculiar events that happened in Bayport. No one knows the identity of a person that had wrecked a statue in the town hall, who painted a swastika in a family’s door, or who set a baby carriage on fire. Meanwhile, we learn about the characters; Donna Rockford, a university student that is known for helping the Philadelphia Police in solving murder cases; Abbey Rockford, Donna’s sister, who is graduating from Bayport High; and Nancy Gibson, the daughter of a U.S senator.
On a hot night, after having a cookout on the beach near Nancy Gibson’s home, she is found dead on a bulwark. A bruise on the back of Nancy’s head suggests she didn’t drown. She was murdered! <קרא עוד...>

Brief plot summary: The book has 2 stories in it. One story is the background story which is being told by David, this story is about the club. The other one is the story that was told in the club by Dr.McCarron. His story is about young woman who killed in her way to the hospital when she came to deliver her baby.
Describe one character or special setting: Sandra Stansfield – A young woman who got pregnant without being merried. She had no friends and she didn’t want to tell her family because she afraid about their reaction. She was very strong and independent. Unfortunately she died in an accident when she came to deliver.
New word list and a sentence for each word: Method – In my school the teachers use modern method of teaching English.
Contractions – After every sport lesson I feel contractions in my muscels.
I do not recommend this book to my mother because the book has some strong descriptions about how Sandra died in the accident and I think it will be hard for her to read those kind of things
Introduction
Space Invaders is a classic science fiction book (written by Geoffrey Matthews).
I liked this book because I like this janre very much,and this book included all the janre components such as:
Space travel , advanced technology , robots and action.
Although the book was very short it was enthralling and had a lot of tension in it.
I chose this book because of it’s name that is similar to the name of a very famous and popular arcade game machine from the eighties , when I picked the book I thought it was about that machine but when I finished reading it I found out that it’s got nothing to do with the arcade game.
I recommend this book to readers in all ages.
