BOOK REVIEW: Reader Views Kids Review of The Adventures of Nihu by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

 

Reader Views Kids




This long book takes place in a jungle and is about a boy named Nihu that lived in a small village.  One day Nihu is out hunting, and his uncle was killed by an arrow that a robber took after Nihu shot it.  Everybody thought Nihu killed his uncle, so he was told not to come back to the village.  He went to the jungle to live, and met Old Phil.  They got to be friends, but Old Phil died. 

Nihu met many creatures when he was in the jungle.  Some were friendly, but some were mean and scary.  He finally tries to find his way out of the jungle and falls through a crack in the earth.  A very mean creature takes him and puts him inside a stone, with some other prisoners.  We don’t find out until the very end if he ever escapes.

This was a long book, and it was hard for me to read by myself.  There were a lot of big words, and some parts were hard for me to understand.  It was exciting, and sometimes scary.  The different creatures that Nihu met were very strange, and some wanted to kill him.  But some of the creatures that were the scariest turned out to be nice, so I liked that.  The ending was good, too. 

The words that the writer used made it feel like you were in the middle of the jungle with Nihu.  I could picture in my mind what the jungle looked like – very scary, and a place I would not like to visit.  I could understand how Nihu felt.  I kind of liked this book, because my mom helped me with the parts I didn’t understand.  It would be better for someone a few years older than me that could read it without help.  Boys and girls that like exciting books would like “The Adventures of Nihu.”

From the novel entitled, "Beyond Imagination" by Oladele Dada.

 Oladele Dada. It was dawn. The chilly dust-laden wind formed dense fog on the road. The rocky hills and the tall trees made Ajewole a beautiful town. The birds sang aloud, and clanging of stainless dishes in the neighbourhood suggested human activity was at its peak. Humans had begun to move to their various destinations. Adunni had trouble with child bearing and her husband was worried. Then she booked an appointment with her doctor. After several tests, the doctor suggested the couple be patient and that she will surely get pregnant. Not long after, Adunni was pregnant. After several months, Adunni was delivered of a boy. The women in her neighbourhood, alongside the children, sang and danced to her home to celebrate with her. Her husband, Fredrick Olagbade, thanked the Lord and named the boy Juwon.     As Juwon grew, his mother had another child whose name was Olakitan. Juwon was intelligent and his parents were struggling to make ends meet. As poverty st...

BOOK EXCERPT: The Farmhouse by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

The Farmhouse  by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren Chapter One The Family `Once upon a time in the old town of Gid, an old farmer called Erasmus had a horse and a son. The boy’s name was Jason, and the horse was Francis. They lived in a farmhouse, and Francis took them everywhere they went. The farmer had no wife. She died after Jason was born. Erasmus vowed never to remarry and had remained a widower ever since. Taking care of Jason and Francis alone was never easy, but the farmer promised his late wife on her deathbed that he was going to raise Jason into a fine man. One sad morning, the cockerel said it was dawn. The disturbance woke Jason. The boy stormed out of sleep. He removed the blanket and rolled out of bed. He went to the window and peered out. The weather was clear, and the boughs of trees bowed and danced to the sweet movement of the morning breeze. Jason liked the morning, and then he carried himself to the sitting room, where his father was on his knees saying his morning prayers....

NEW RELEASE: Those Ghostly Victorians by Annette Siketa

  Those Ghostly Victorians by Annette Siketa ABOUT THE BOOK At its zenith, the belief in ghosts in the Victorian era bordered on the hysterical. From stately homes to deserted wells, no dwelling was complete without a resident ghost. Halls and mansions and even the odd palace or two, spawned a multitude of family legends, many of which still persist. Many people claimed to have direct contact with a ghost through an object such as a ouija board or a pen, the latter collectively known as 'spiritual writing'. For example, a secretary allegedly continued to take dictation from his employer long after the latter was dead. Whether it was through books, plays, or supposedly true stories, the influence of the supernatural was profound. And it is not difficult to understand why, especially in the 'lower class', the majority of whom were uneducated. With nothing but drabness and poverty on the horizon, events such as a windy night or a violent storm were likely to set the ima...
