1. 1. WRITING A REVIEW

2. 2. Why write a review? A review is an easy way to let other people know if you liked a book, film, TV programme... They are short descriptions where we express our opinion and recommendations about books, films we have read or watched. Present tenses are frequently used in this type of writing.

3. 3. PARTS OF A REVIEW INTRODUCTION In the introduction we summarize the information of the book, film or TV programme. You mention the title, name of author/director, type of book/film (adventure, romantic, thriller.....), setting, in two or three sentences.

4. 4. Eg: " The King's Speech " that tells the true story of Bertie, Duke of York and future King George VI, is a drama set in Britain in the 1930s. This fascinating film is about the problems this sovereign had to face with his stammer. It stars Colin Firth as King George VI, Helena Bonham Carter as his charming wife Elizabeth and Geoffrey Rush as the unorthodox therapist Logue.

5. 5. THE MAIN BODY It normally consists of two paragraphs : one that includes the main points of the plot in chronological order and another with comments on the plot (positive and negative aspects), the main characters, the acting etc. But you DON´T REVEAL the end of the story.

6. 6. Firt paragraph : The film begins when Bertie as Duke of York and his audience endure agonies of embarrassment as he attempts to deliver a speech at Wembley Stadium. The rest takes place between 1934 when his wife arranges for him to see an Australian therapist , and shortly after the beginning of the war when he makes a magnificent live broadcast to the world from Buckingham Palace, with Logue helping him conduct the speech from the other side of the microphone. .

7. 7. The King's Speech is filled with dramatic scenes as the king-to-be tries to overcome his speech difficulties, helped by the informal Australian therapist. The actors give a brilliant perfomance, especially that of Colin Firth as the king.

8. 8. I strongly recommend this film, since it shows the dramatic experience stammer people have to go through, despite their social status. Futhermore, how one gets their compensation after fighting adversities.

A tale by Maite Cambra

# data[].attributes.body
A very long time ago, I don't remember how old I was, but I was a little kid, I went to my aunt's house, where there were things from the countryside, because they were farmers.
In the house there were underground cellars, to store and ferment the wine.
While I was playing and running around the house, I fell into the cellar through a small hole used to enter the grape must. Once inside I sat, scared, without light and I saw red demons all over the space.
Luckily in the cellar there was no wine, there was cereal, and in a short time my family took me out of the underground cellar.
This is a  true story that happened to me.
Sounds like a tale, doesn't it ?

Once upon a time there was a place where a witch lived. Many people went to see her because she granted wishes. But careful, all wishes had a price.
One day an old blind man came. He asked the witch to see again. She promised to grant it if he worked for a year in her peach orchard. The year passed quickly and the old man left happily.
One dark night another man came. He was a young thief. He asked the witch to fill his leather bags with jewels and gold. As always the price was to work in the orchard for a year. However, the time passed very slowly and the witty thief aged and then he begged for mercy. The thief didn't know that the witch could control the time. She took advantage on the greed of people.
And you will ask yourself? Why did she make them work in her peach orchard?
This is another story...

Once a long time ago, there were two little birds, who lived at the top of a big tree, they
were brothers. Their parents died one day that they went to search eat. The couple of
birds learned to fly and to search food themselves.
The big brother was called Sam. He was blue and yellow. He was a bit bossy and
stubborn. Sometimes he argued with his brother because he never changed his
opinion. The other brother, called Oliver was very slim and he was brown. He
was affectionate and very imaginative. He liked to look at the sky and imagine stories with
the clouds.
One day they decided to travel abroad, and go sightseeing. They booked a flight to
Las Vegas because traveling by with plane is faster. After that the couple of birds visited the
most famous cities of the west coast. They visited also the Grand Canyon of Colorado
and finished their journey in Seattle. They had a cousin in Seattle. Their cousin showed
the city and finally the couple of birds decided to stay and live with their cousin in the USA.
