Telling it straight - Isabel H (8N) reviews 'Counting by 7s'


 
And it’s back! Another Beaumont whole school read! And this year it’s Counting by 7s by Holly Goldberg Sloan.
Would you enjoy a heart-warming tale about a child's new, yet confusing life?
Do you understand, or want to understand the beauty of the world around you?

Do you have little obsessions in everyday life - such as counting by 7s?

If you can say yes to at least one of these questions, then Counting by 7s is the book for you!

Willow Chance is a genius -there’s no doubt about it. But why can her standard school not see that?

This book is all about Willow trying not to let life get on top of her. Her parents have died, she’s been made to see a counsellor for reasons absurd, she’s living in a garage behind a nail bar and just can’t possibly face school.

This compelling tale has something in it for everyone! There is no doubt you’ll feel Willow’s pain as she struggles through grief but you will also experience rejoiced emotions as things begin to look up.
Not only can you take this book as an enjoyable read. In doing so, you’ll be earning your form house points. And that’s not it! You can then go on to enter plenty of competitions through school related to the book….. There are some excellent prizes up for grabs too!
