One aspect I enjoyed less is that there’s a bit of Evie being not like the other girls – she isn’t into trivial stuff like makeup, her appearance, social media etc unlike her frenemy Leonora. I am a bit torn about this generally -- there's a lot of stuff about mean 12 year old girls who love the internet as being vapid mean girls both in this and in middle grades fiction generally, and people can like makeup and still be kind empathetic people! Girls can be socially adept with a lot of friends without being necessarily horrible. You don't see much of this sort of bullying coming from boys of that age in fiction. I mean, don't get me wrong, you see it heaps in real life, sure! But not so much in fiction. Having said all that, on the other hand, it seems quite believable that Evie would have a bit of trouble fitting in -- her interests are quite niche, and in the same grade 6 or year 7 cohort you can get range of behaviour, from kids who act like children to kids who act like teenagers. So maybe it's just realistic? I don't know, I guess not that much of the book covers this particular theme, so it doesn't necessarily matter. oamenii sunt cele mai periculoase dintre animale. Fără îndoială. Se omoară între ei și au sters de pe fața pământului milioane de alte animale. Conform celor de la National Geographhyc, viteza de dispariție a speciilor este de o mie de ori mai mare din cauza oamenilor. Două sute de specii de plante si de animale ajung in prag de dispariție în fiecare zi. " On the face of it, Evie and the Animals appears to be just a fantastical tale of a girl who has the ability to communicate with animals, but there are so many layers waiting to be discovered. So when she frees the school rabbit from its tiny hutch, she vows to keep her talent a secret. But after a face-to-face encounter with a lion, things start to go very wrong. Her dad - and every animal in town - is now in danger. Evie is determined to save them. And to find the truth of her own past. To do that she must battle a mysterious man with a talent more powerful than any other.

I am ashamed that I hadn’t heard of Professor Abigail Garcia and so I learnt from the story too.Evie and the Animals is a book about friendship, kindness and power. The main character, Evie Trench, is a very determined girl and has a very special talent. What she doesn’t know is this talent could put her and her family in danger. Evie’s mother was killed by an Australian wandering spider that was being controlled by the man she should fear the most, Mortimer J Mortimer. Five out of five stars for making me feel different about some animals and making them sound less scary.

pe lângă teoremă lui Pitagora, "filozoful grec și geniu al matematicii, aflăm că acesta considera că animalele au suflet și care fusese vegetarian înainte să ajungă asta "o modă "...(pătratul ipotenuzei =cu suma pătratelor celorlate laturi) Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments Absolutely adored this book!! Matt Haig has done a FAB job of writing this story! It is great to read a story about animals in such a different light to 'normal'. I grew very fond of Evie as her warm-hearted and caring personality is shown towards the animals and humans. This superpower, running through generations of family on her mother’s side, has to be kept top secret because it puts her life in danger, just as her mum’s life had been endangered by the bond-like villain of the piece “Mortimer J Mortimer”.

Matt Haig's books are so incredible. i loved this so much and i loved how he subtly discussed climate change and environmentalism which is super important for kids to be aware of!
