Max Remy Superspy

Max Remy Superspy : In search of the Time and Space Machine.

1. About Max Remy.

Max Remy is an eleven year old girl who lives in the city with her
mother. She is suppose to spend the summer with her dad who is a film
producer. But when things don't go according to plan Max is dropped off
at her Aunt and Uncles farm in the middle of no where. Here she meets a
boy named Linden and they become the best of friends. Together they
discover that Max's Aunt and Uncle are actually inventors for a secret
spy organisation called Spyforce. When Max and Linden use their latest
invention, a time and space machine, to find her Uncle's brother in
England they meet an evil Mr. Blue who is plotting to take over the
world with the new invention. In the end Max and Linden defeat Mr. Blue
become secret agents for Spyforce with heaps of cool new stuff.

2. The Title MAX REMY SUPERSPY:IN SEARCH OF THE TIME AND SPACE MACHINE

I think Deborah Abela chose this title as it is instantly tells us of
the main character and what the book will be about without even picking
it up yet. I think she did this so people knew what it was about for
those people who love spy and adventure novels so it was easier to find
that type of book.

3.Setting and genre.

The book is set in today’s time roughly. Max lives in the city of Sydney
as it is today. The farm is also a real place in the country. London is
very much set as it is today.
This book is an adventure novel about spies, deception and mystery. This
is a children’s fiction novel for ages 11+.

4. About the characters

A) Max
Max is and eleven yr old girl who is shy by brave. She is a lot of
the time stubborn but generally she has a good heart and a love of
adventure, she loves her family even if she doesn't know it. Her best
friend is Linden.

B) Linden
Linden is a boy about Max's age who lives near Max's Aunt and
Uncle. He is a real country boy who is really down to earth, a
contrasting character to Max's wild attitude towards everything. he is
very brave and calm in sticky situations which is why he is the one who
keeps Max's cool on missions.


5. Major Changes
The biggest change for Max in the book would have to be when she starts
her adventure in search of her uncles brother. This whole adventure
changes her forever. She is less stubborn and doesn't nearly as much
attitude towards everything. Max becomes very brave and stands up to
bullies in her class. This shows how one event can change a person
forever.

Quote
1) ‘There was no one to look after me in Sydney’ Max spoke up.



8. In general, this book is very exciting and action packed which goes pretty fast. I would recommend it for kid’s as it is fun and original. The characters are unique but face the same problems as us “normal kids”.

Ballad: The Storm

The wild winds shook the sky,
everything was flying by,
The thunder and lighting,
Very frightning
Drenching rain plumets down,
The cold seaping through your clothes,
CRACK, goes the thundering clouds like the pot falling to the floor
The darkness crepping in,
as the wild winds roar
Tree's moanign and groaning,
Under the strain of the storm
CRASH, as the tree falls in the bush,
Screems all around from the small school girls,
BOOM, goes the sky as the clounds thunder on
The tunder and lightning,
Very frighning
A show of light for all to see,
Flash here, flash there,
lighning fills the sky and earth all around,
as the light comes crashing down.

Why does Sade feel guilty about not telling the truth?

In the book 'The Other Side of Truth' Sade is very uncomfortable about telling the truth to people in London. Sade feels like this because she is worried that if people found out about her secrets and who she is that her father could be hurt or even killed if the authorities found out. Evidence of this is in chapter 15 'Trouble with the truth' (p. 72). Sade has grown up with her parents telling her that lying is bad and that she should always strive to tell the truth. So when Sade tells lies to the people she meets it's hard for her as it's not in her nature. There are times when telling the truth is going to result in bad consequences before good will come so Sade must keep the truth locked inside of her.

Descriptive Opening Paragraphs 8/3/10

The only noise for miles was the trickle of the glistening stream, the sweet song of the mornings birds and the movement of the wind along the few patches of lush, green grass. All that I could see was the melting slush of winters snow, the jaggedness of the snow-caped mountains and the rising of the sun, revealing the beauty of spring arriving. The warmth was so inviting on my skin. My brother and I haven't lived here long. Here I felt free, alive and the healthiest I've ever been. But our lives was not always this nice. No. My name is Sam and I'm 14yrs old. I'm going to tell you something, something horrible and cruel. I was taken when I was very young. As was my brother. I don't remember much of the time I spent with my family, let alone if we were ever happy. My story starts here. At the government center of 'research'.
