————————————————————————-

Days At The Morisaki Bookshop is a heartwarming book which is based in a Japanese used-bookshop called Morisaki Bookshop in the quiet, calm and bookshop-filled neighbourhood called Jimbocho Neighbourhood in Tokyo, Japan. The story follows 25-year old Takako, who after a heartbreak from her boyfriend, decides to go to her uncle’s used-bookshop which has been in their family for years. There she gradually develops a reading habit and also helps out at the store when her uncle goes to hospital every morning. Her uncle supported her a lot. Over the course she got a new boyfriend named Akira Wada(Wada for short)Then a fine day, Satoru’s(Takako’s uncle)wife who went away five years ago came back. Her name was Momoko and she was a kind, little lady. The following weeks Takako and Momoko go on a trip. It follows all the ups and downs in their lives. Overall, the book was beyond words and it was so good. I would give it a 10/10 and I mean it. It was written by Satoshi Yagisawa in Japanese and translated into English by Eric Ozawa. It would surely arouse an extreme love for books.

 IKIGAI FOR TEENS 5/9/2025 Ean Jacob Mathew, Age 10 ——————————————————— Ikigai For Teens is a self-help kind of book which helps you to recognise your ikigai, your passion your profession your vocation etc. It is a book that needs a few times of repeated reading for some to understand it thoroughly. My sister Amelia recommended it to me and I got it as an Onam gift from my parents. It was so good and touching and fun for kids. I would rate it 10/10 and its presented in such a way for kids that we wont be bored. Click on this link to buy: https://amzn.in/d/gIJScFW.

Reading Corner

Reading Corner Wassup guys? So, I started writing poems with inspiration from the Malayalam poems we always learn at school and I looked around my room to see what I could write about and I found my cozy reading corner. Go and hit the follow button in menu tab. So sit back and enjoy the poem.  In this cozy reading corner of mine I sit and read a book that is fine All the rice lights glow and glow Like the fireflies on a real fine night The chilling wind of the thermantidote Hits like a slap On the soft and tender skin on my face Like a statue, I sit there for hours Reading, Reading, Reading all through Then calls my parent for slumber Like a speed bump in the middle Of a Formula One race.                                                                   Ean J Matt

I’ve always wanted a Wimpy Kid book and I got it. It’s a good book and the story is that Greg’s mom thinks that people these days are so in phones, and in her time everyone used to play and do other things.

Then Greg goes on a field trip to stay at a farm called Hardscrabble Farms to get away from his dad who will be angry if he sees the dent in the bumper of his car Greg and Grandpa made last day. But it is scary in the farms. There is a ghost farmer there, says rumours, named Silas Scratch. But when his dad arrives he finds out he invented the rumour about Silas Scr...
