this book is about poaching and it is fantastic you never know what is going to happen and when you do there is always somthing that you would'n expect. when i was reading this book it was so good i didn't want to put the book down and that is the kind of book that most people enjoy. most chapters end in a cliff hanger but i only read one chapter every night and sometimes i went to bed thinking about what would happen in the next chapter

My son & I really enjoyed reading this book together. It takes a few chapters to get into it, but then is very gripping & has a good ending.

This is a fictional story about a boy called Danny and a father who is said to do lots of fun activities, which is actually called spoiling. He goes out shooting pheasants which is not allowed in this country and he leaves Danny on his own on his 9th birthday. But Danny rescues his father and saves the day, he is a hero. I don’t like a character called Mr Victor Hazel as he is a meanie.

I liked this book because it was about family. A boy -called Danny- and his dad share a secret that Danny's dad goes into the woods to kill pheasants. Mr Hazel (who the pheasants belong to) owns a beer factory. will Danny's plan work?

I thought this book was really interesting. Danny is a normal boy. One day he notices his dad is missing and his dad has a secret about poaching. At the end Danny becomes the champion of the world. My favourite character is Danny. I would recommend this book.

This book is fiction and my favourite character is Danny because he is so smart. I learned about how to become the champion of the world. I would recommend this book because it teaches you how to become a world champion.
