    1. During the 1900's there was a disease called plague that had spread over all of Sydney. People had no choice but to apply chemicals to there whole body and they had to take injections just so they didn't catch plague.

  3. I agree with you Caitlin. From what I have read so far, the author has covered what the families struggle with before federation and in the 1900's , which were things like working hard to earn money to pay for the needs of the families, experiencing the severe diseases like plague from unclean areas and having to get their houses knocked down causing them to stay at their school for a while. Although, as we keep reading I'm sure more struggles will appear.

  4. Your comments show a good understanding of the struggles early Australian people went through, especially during this time in our history.

Samurai Kids- White Crane written by Sandy Fussell

Samurai Kids Samurai Kids is a very intriguing and interesting book. This book is written for 11-13 year old audiences and has a lot of twists and turns along the way. Samurai Kids is about kids who want to be samurais but no ryu will accept them due to their disabilities. The main character;  Niya has no leg and the children have disabilities such as blindness, extra fingers and toes and one child has no arms.

I am up to page 146 in this descriptive, enduring book. Samurai Kids has many funny parts and unpredictable events, for example Taji is blind but he somehow beat Niya, a boy missing a leg. Taji usually beats the crew because he doesn't have the gift of sight he can hear very deeply, even a small tip toe step.  
So far i am up to page 7 in the book Holes. This book was written by a spectacular author called Bloomsbury.I suggest this book for ages 9+ as it has complicated words and high vocabulary.So far i am really interested in continuing this book and cant wait to finish it.
