Book Review
My great thrilling book is called The Bronze Bow written By Elizabeth Speare. This book takes place in 30 A.D. Rome. Rome is hot and dry. The main character is Daniel Bar Jamin. Daniel is a boy of courage, brave and lives on his own. Daniel is 18 years old.
Daniel spends much of his time with his friend Rosh. Daniel’s courage has helped all his live because Daniel meets a boy and girl, Joel and Malthace. Joel asked his name and told him about his grandma and his sister who has not seen him in years. Daniel finally meets his sister with the help of Simon, a slave. Daniel actions are believable because his courage helped him meet his sister.
My opion of this book is Daniel will help his sister and also defeat the Romans. I dislike this book because so far there is no action.
