Finders Keepers by Emily Rodda

Who are the characters? Patrick, Danny, Claire, Judith, Estell, Boopie Cupid, Michel, Lucky Lemont. What happens? Patrick goes for a walk and sees the computer store and goes in to play a game because Patrick wants a computer. On the game Patrick's playing he sees a message and it says what's your name, he did not read the instructions so he wrote Patrick and it said you have been selected to play the game show Finders Keepers. Go on channel 8 on Saturday 10am and you will be a contestant on Finders Keepers he didnot know what it meant. So he told his mum, dad and best friend Michel, but no one believed him. So he did any way went on channel 8 but his mum Judith and his dad said there was no channel 8, he went on and it was just snow. On Saturday he went on channel 8 and the next thing he knew he was on the game show Finders Keepers he needed to solve the riddle to solve teh missing thing. He gets a badge that beeps!!!!! When he is close to it, he finds out that it is a book and returns to Finders Keepers and he spins the wheel to win a prize because he found the right thing. He wins a music box so he does another find to win something else so he can win a computer. Now he needs to return through the portal to find the next missing thing?? I recommend thif for 5-12 year girls and boys. If you read this book I hope you enjoy!!! It's a great book. Reviewed by Charlotte(yr4)
