Ryan’s book Review
Inter Galactic Heroes
James Maloney uses dialogue throughout to help us to understand his characters that are Joe, Daniel and Lizzie. Joe is a young boy who is crazy about space. He believes he is going to be a spaceman by always communicating. Daniel is Joe’s best friend and pretends he is Captain Kirk. Daniel is crazy about space too just like Joe.
Most of the story is set in the garden where Joe’s friends play and hang out in the hut. The Author brings in some little ants to play a trick on Joe, Daniel and Lizzie. The garden is turned into space in the characters’ minds. Daniel, Joe and Lizzie go in the garage to get some space toys and bring them to the garden.
James Maloney has good description of the characters and setting. He describes well on the characters in a chatty way. Some readers would find parts of the book boring but younger people might find it funny. The length of the book is short so it would be good for younger children but older children would also find it easy because it is a short book.
Joe, Daniel and Lizzie are playing a game in Joe’s garden and pretending it is space and using walkie –talkies to communicate with each other. They find little ants playing a trick on them. When mum comes home she runs over the little ants. Joe, Daniel and Lizzie are shocked when they see the ant’s dead.
Young teenagers would find it funny but not as funny as the children. Some good readers might find the style old-fashioned but most readers will enjoy this good story.
