Hart of a Samurai



The Author of this book is Margi Preus. Today I finished reading the book(finally)which has 300 pages!!! This story was said than it's half fiction half non fiction. I would rate this book 10/10 it's the best book ever (for me)!!!!!
It is because I imagined all of the book in my mind and it is amazing how they illustrated this book. My favorite part was when he was a fisherman and became a Samurai. I think the massage that they sent is that it doesn't matter what kind of level you are, your wishes can come true.

The Author

It's strange cause I've told you so much about the book, like the conflict, characters and stuff about the book but you don't know the author of my book. So here it is.

The author of this book is called Laura St. John. She had a pet giraffe named Jenny. Se grew up in Africa. Her parent owned their own farm.

Thank you for reading and I've now finished reading my book. Yay!!

Enjoy your free reading time
