Gulliver's Travels
Gill Harvey, Peter Dennis
A re-telling of the classic Jonathan Swift story told for children growing in reading confidence and ability. Gulliver sets off on the adventure of a lifetime – and meets miniature people, civil war and a price upon his head. Will he make it back in one piece? Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton. Also available with an audio CD with a dramatic listen-along recording with music and sound effects, followed by a read-along version with prompts for page turns.

Loved reading this book as I like books about travels and adventures. Never read a book about giants before and like the way little people and giant got along afterwards and even become friends. Would definitely recommend this book to other kids.

Gulliver was a doctor and then a sailor for various ships. He was born in Tottenham in England. He was sailing on a ship that was swept away by the current of a ship and found himself in the city of the dwarves. They found him, tied him up, ate some of their food, then presented him to the king of the country. During his stay, Gulliver learned about the country and the culture of the dwarves and other things. The war in Lilliput ended and Gulliver rose up. With the help of the king to defeat the enemy, the king won the battle and Gulliver brought ships from the sea. After that, the king gave souvenir cows and sheep to Gulliver during his return to his country, and then Gulliver gave the cows and young sheep to the captain of a ship to take Gulliver back to his country in exchange for currency. Golden I recommend reading the story because it contains English literature and everyone will like it.

The story interested me because it showed me there was another world that is tiny, with countries such as Lilliput and Blefescu. Yes I’d recommended my freinds, even some grown-ups to read it one day.

I like it because it was fun to learn more about lilliput.My favourite character was gulliver because when blufescu and lilliput he put both of the islands warships to sea to let them sink.He was a very good man and saved both the islands.But its a bit weird that they have a fight about opening your eggs.I would recommend it for any age cause there's no bad bits.

I thought the story was interesting. I liked how Gulliver visited the different lands and found out about the different cultures and ways of life. It was a fictional story, and at the end he encounters a land of horses, where they are the superior species, and the Yahoos, who are like humans are the inferior. Yes, I would recommend it to someone else.

Was a very good book with sudden plot twists and tales of humour (like tiny people fight a bee humour). This was a fictional book based on the strange travels of Gulliver who is in some of his travels a giant and in some an a miniature, elfin creature.
