Syd's Playdough Corner

 Hello, ready to review my spookiest reads of the year? (Don't worry no spoilers!) I am reviewing five books: Hooky vol.1 by Miriam Bonastre Tur, Hooky vol.2 by Miriam Bonastre Tur, Vampirates book 1 by Justin Somper, Wandmaker by Ed Masessa, and City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab. 1. Hooky, volume one by Miriam Bonastre Tur This book was really, really good. It's about these twin witches named Dani and Dorian. Dani has something wrong with her magic and Dorian is really good at magic. They end up in this small town where Master Pendragon teaches them magic and they become friends with an unlikely group and face lots of challenges like witch hating villagers, darkness trying to rule, witch battles and messed up magic. I would give Hooky vol. 1 and 2 five stars! It was amazing! 2. Hooky, volume 2 by Miriam Bonastre Tur In this book something has happened, and they have to go into hiding but it didn't last long before they go back into adventuring! We see a lot of the king of ...

 Hello viewers! We're going to talk about the importance of sharks, their population and preservation efforts. Sharks play important roles in the ocean's food webs and  ecosystems. They are wonderful creatures and greatly misunderstood. Shark Population According to americanoceans.org, about 100 million sharks are  killed every year and over 11,000 sharks killed every  hour worldwide. This is higher than the recovery rates, meaning that there are not enough sharks born to make up for those that die, hurting the population.
