After reading one of Ruth Eastham's novels 'The Memory Cage' last year (which our class LOVED) I decided to start the new year off by reading her other novel 'The Messenger Bird'. Though it is very different to 'The Memory Cage' it has been well received by my class so far and I look forward to their amazing questions and predictions on what will happen next. Will Nat be able to help his dad? What has Lily's trail got to do with his dad? So 5/6S. . . . . . . what questions do you have about the novel so far? What are you wondering? What will happen next? |

I think that he will ask his mum if he can go to (that town where he thinks the next clue is) with Sasha and Josh. When they go there he pretends not to be looking for anything but he actually is, and he finds another clue for Lilly's trail somewhere there.

One question I have is that why is Lily involved in the trail to find the clues to prove that Nate's dad is innocent?

Me too Dom! (although I already know what happens…but I am still enjoying reading it again)….I love the way that the author Ruth creates suspense in the story and keeps you thinking and guessing. I think that is what a good book does…it forces you to make connections between what you have read earlier and what you read down the track!
