Reading Record - Day 2
Title: Good Night Mister Tom
Author: Michelle Magorian
Pages Read: 13-15
Summary: The child was considered a bad boy and his mother gave him small beatings but the child is worried that Tom will give him harder hits because he is bigger. The child had bumps and bruises all over his body.
Thought: I think that this child abuse shouldn't be used no matter what they do. Violence isn't the answer. It doesn't resolve anything but hurt.

Reading Record - Day 1
Title: Good Night Mister Tom
Author: Michelle Magorian
Pages Read: 9-13
Summary: A lady gave Tom Oakley a child. This child was awfully skinny, shy and extremely scared.
Thought: The book wasn't as exciting as my teacher told me but I feel sorry for the child for being separated from his Mum. It was also quite sad of how much the child ate and how skinny he was.
