The Danger Gang: Tom Fletcher

Product Information

I did think it was a bit odd to go for branie instead of danger in the Dutch edition. I mean branie is a good choice in the end, but it seems weird to go from danger to daring/brave. However, some of this was a little annoying - in particular the ew girls are gross parts. Meeting the danger gang was so fun and interesting some of the plot line was pretty cool too, there is of course a lot of toilet humor in this one but it wasn't too bad.

Franky can't wait to move to his new town - although he wishes he didn't have to leave his best friend Dani behind. If you have seen or been involved in something in a gang, reporting it can feel scary and confusing. You might worry about getting into trouble or making things worse. It's important to think about your future, your safety and what feels right for you. You don't have to deal with this on your own. This one was a little hard for me to rate in the end....I think the way this was written using letters was really cool and I haven't seen this in a middle grade before. Also reading this from an adult's perspective was quite funny, especially with the rules and secrets the kids think they have that their parents surely couldn't know about.

They are the best organized latin gang in the world. Latin Kings street gang was formed in Chicago in the 1940s. At first members were mostly Puerto Rican. But today gang is dominated by Mexicans. Although they aren’t as violent as many of the other gangs they do engage in a fair share of illegal money making activities including contract killings. 01 – Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) Mara Salvatrucha

De auteur brengt het soort avontuur dat elke jeugdige tiener wel zou willen beleven en schetst een vriendengroep waar zowat iedere lezer zich in kan herkennen. De pester, de streber, de lieverd of de durfal, allemaal zijn ze vertegenwoordigd in dit verhaal. En wat meer is, elk heeft zo zijn of haar gebreken, die, éénmaal uitvergroot instaan voor het avontuurlijke fantasie-aspect van het geheel. De speelse manier waarop thema’s als vriendschap, angsten en samenhorigheid in het geheel worden verwerkt maken het plaatje af. The art was fabulous though I did think it was a bit odd how much they differ. You had SUPER detailed and gorgeous art, and more simple but also fun art. Between the two sometimes the characters just looked vastly different which was confusing. I still loved the art, don’t get me wrong, but I think it would be better if it had all been in one style. I also loved seeing what happened to the town and that the storm didn’t just affect the children. It affected a lot more! They are Chinese gang and also known as ‘’Dub C’’ which is founded in San Francisco during the early 1960s. Wah Ching is composed mainly of young men. Most of their operations are focused around money laundering and financial crimes in Los Angeles and eastern Asia. And for real they are good at making money. 07 – Yakuza YakuzaIt’s important to be aware of the risks of criminal exploitation or being involved with a criminal gang. They can use different tactics to recruit and exploit children and young people, including bribing them with rewards, befriending them, and threatening them, or coercing them. Tom also writes the incredibly successful Who's in Your Book? picture-book series and is one half of the author duo behind the Dinosaur that Pooped picture-book series too, which has sold over 1.5 million copies. But everything changes after the storm, when strange green lightning and powerful thunder crash down on the town. From that night on, the kids who live on Franky's street start to change. One by one, they become a little odd. A little unusual. A little... magical. All seems normal until, following a terrific storm one night, with flashes of eerie green lightning and a definite whiff of poo, Franky notices a change in the people around him. First, Eric turns into a shark whenever water touches him, then Mollie becomes invisible, and Franky keeps glimpsing shadowy figures lurking at the edge of his vision. Convinced these bizarre occurrences are connected to the storm, he and his new friends form The Danger Gang and make it their mission to investigate the peculiar events. Traditional Japanese gang. Members of yakuza gang are required to cut all ties with their family to prove their loyalty to their gang boss. It is told that they have more than 102,000 members in the world. 06 – Bloods Bloods

He says more than 100 jumbled Shakespeare quotes throughout the series, but you’d have to really be looking for them to notice! Last year, a librarian in Wichita, Kansas told me that she’d found 63 Shakespeare quotes in Ronald’s dialogue. FACT #6: In Italy, where my family is from, my dad was always called “La Barba,” which means “the beard.” When I was growing up, his beard always seemed incredibly bold and adventurous to me. Tom Fletcher did it again! A fun, exciting, storm-tastic, superpowers and friendship filled story. I flew through it!The book is useful for KS2 children, which refers to Key Stage 2 in the UK educational system, because it promotes creativity, imagination, and problem-solving skills. The Danger Gang is a thrilling adventure that captures children’s imaginations and encourages them to think critically about the challenges that the characters face. The book also explores themes such as friendship, teamwork, and overcoming adversity, which are important for children’s social and emotional development. Toen Tom Fletcher onder de vleugels van Billy Bones werd genomen met zijn Nederlandstalige debuut De Kerstmisaurus was meteen duidelijk dat we met een echte klepper in het jeugdboekenaanbod te maken hadden. Zijn vervolgboek scoorde evenzeer en met de Knerpers bevestigde hij nog maar eens zijn kunnen. Dit keer mocht ik opnieuw een avontuur van zijn hand doornemen dat luistert naar de naam “De Braniebende”.
