The Danger Gang: Tom Fletcher

Product Information

Tom Fletcher did it again! A fun, exciting, storm-tastic, superpowers and friendship filled story. I flew through it! This one was a little hard for me to rate in the end....I think the way this was written using letters was really cool and I haven't seen this in a middle grade before. Also reading this from an adult's perspective was quite funny, especially with the rules and secrets the kids think they have that their parents surely couldn't know about. calling Childline free on 0800 1111 or having 1-2-1 chat with a counsellor.

The Danger Gang by Tom Fletcher, Shane Devries | Waterstones

Wie een boek van Fletcher in handen krijgt, weet dat het niet van de dunste exemplaren zijn. Ook dit keer klopt hij zijn verhaal net onder de 450 pagina’s af. Het grote lettertype, de creatieve bladspiegel en de regelmatige onderbreking van de tekst door de wondermooie zwart-wit illustraties, zorgen er echter voor dat je als lezer in geen tijd het boek hebt uitgelezen. Het taalgebruik is heel laagdrempelig en zal voor de gemiddelde lezer vanaf zo’n acht jaar perfect verteerbaar zijn. Het sterke aan Fletchers schrijfsels is echter dat de bovenleeftijd heel wat verder reikt dan het doorsnee jeugdboek. Zelfs een wat ouder publiek van bijna twintigers en ver daarboven zullen ongetwijfeld smullen van wat hij te vertellen heeft.He says more than 100 jumbled Shakespeare quotes throughout the series, but you’d have to really be looking for them to notice! Last year, a librarian in Wichita, Kansas told me that she’d found 63 Shakespeare quotes in Ronald’s dialogue. FACT #6: In Italy, where my family is from, my dad was always called “La Barba,” which means “the beard.” When I was growing up, his beard always seemed incredibly bold and adventurous to me. Dat Tom Fletcher kan schrijven mag ondertussen duidelijk zijn, maar het moet gezegd dat zijn boeken geenszins dezelfde impact en het zelfde succes zouden kennen zonder de samenwerking met illustrator Shane Devries. Zijn tekeningen zorgen ervoor het boek ongekende hoogtes bereikt. Van een simpele pentekening tot ware pareltjes van illustraties die zo uit een stripboek zijn weggehaald, zowat alles passeert de revue. Om dan nog maar te zwijgen over het schitterende coverontwerp dat niemand onberoerd zal laten. Famous Los Angeles gang founded in 1972 as a club. Also known as the biggest rivals of Cribs. They are known with their ‘’red’’ clothes and bandanas. . The gang is separated into “sets,” which have their own tactics, especially when it comes to recruiting. Their members identify themselves through various gang indicators such as colors, clothing, symbols, tattoos, jewelry, graffiti, language, and also hand signs. 05 – 18th Street Gang 18th Street Gang

Zijn vervolgboek scoorde evenzeer en met de Knerpers bevestigde hij nog maar eens zijn kunnen. Dit keer mocht ik opnieuw een avontuur van zijn hand doornemen dat luistert naar de naam “De Braniebende”. The world of organized crime is constantly evolving, and new gangs are emerging every year.

I did think it was a bit odd to go for branie instead of danger in the Dutch edition. I mean branie is a good choice in the end, but it seems weird to go from danger to daring/brave. The word ‘gang’ means different things in different contexts, the government in their paper ‘Safeguarding children and young people who may be affected by gang activity’ distinguishes between peer groups, street gangs and organised criminal gangs. 1 De Braniebende” is opgebouwd als een soort dagboek, we krijgen maand per maand de briefwisseling tussen het net verhuisde hoofdpersonage Frenkie en zijn achtergebleven beste vriendin Danika voorgeschoteld. Daarin vertelt hij uitgebreid en met jeugdig enthousiasme welke bizarre avonturen (pun intended) die maand heeft beleefd. Het charmante aan de vertelstijl is dat Fletcher erin slaagt om de jeugdige naïviteit en de ongebreidelde fantasie perfect in de verhaallijn te vatten. Het voelt alsof je als lezer in het geheim mag meelezen met de brieven tussen de twee vrienden. being arrested, including for crimes committed by the gang that they have not directly committed under the law of joint enterprise I had so much fun finding out what was going on with that storm and what it meant for each character.
