The title of my book is Adam of the road. It was written by Elizabeth Janet Gray. The setting of my book is in a very small town in England. The main character is Adam Quartermayne and his dog Nick a red spaniels.
The author’s description of the setting is that it is a very harsh and small town. Were Adam lives everyone is in poverty? No one has very good paying jobs. It is a very harsh town because there houses are not stabled enough so during any bad weather there houses could all collapse.
Adam loves to take very long and dangerous adventures with his dog nick. Adam likes to play with nick on a rainy day. Adam loves to play the harp on there long adventures. Adams actions are very believable.
I think that Adam of the road is a very great book to read. I liked this book because Adam is an adventurous person like me.
Sincerely,
Shauna O
