Roedd yn suspenseful iawn ac ar y diwedd, roedd yna foment iachus iawn = Welsh It was very suspenseful and at the end, there was a very wholesome moment = English

I thought it was pretty good but I like non-fiction books better. I liked the main carecter but i do not know the name because it is a first person.

This book is about a blind 10 year old boy, called Bun, going on an adventure to return King Arthur's sword and shield. He takes his beloved friend Anna to accompany him on his adventure. Bun finds the sword and shield in a grave that he fell into on the fields. I recommend this book for 9-12 year olds.

A Book with adventure

I enjoyed this book. It was about a boy called Bun who went blind after an accident. His friends are Anna, Liam and Dan. It is about him adjusting to life being blind. But there is also adventure, which I liked, because Bun and Anna have to return a sword called Excalibur and a shield to King Arthur. Bun regains his sight at the end - we think, but there is a twist as the reader is not sure what is real or dreamed by Bun.

This is a good book for readers that are confident in reading long stories. This book is regarding a magical sword and a person who's trying to take it. Bun Bendle discovers the sword and it changes his life.

You should read this book because it starts when a boy can't see and he hurts himself badly and when he is better again something else happens and it gets exciting and tense. The poor boy goes on a journey with his friend Anna and after they went on a journey something amazing happens and he wakes up and he can finally see again!. So he ran to his mum and dad and said something like this " Mum dad I can see again. "
