Breaking Dawn

 Eagerly Waiting for the movie.The only small gripe I have about this novel is that in wrapping up the story every loose end has been neatly tied into a pretty bow - sometimes it’s good to leave something dangling in the breeze!  Oh, and I don’t like the book's cover either.  But apart from that, this book is all that I was personally hoping it would be.


.."Breaking Dawn is the fourth and final novel in the The Twilight Saga by American authorStephenie Meyer. Divided into three parts, the first and third sections are written from Bella Swan's perspective and the second is written from the perspective of Jacob Black. The novel directly follows the events of the previous novel, Eclipse, as Bella and Edward Cullen get married, leaving behind a heartbroken Jacob. When Bella faces an unexpected situation, she does what it takes to undergo the ultimate transformation and fight the final battle to save her love."...
   
  Full of Forks goodness, Breaking Dawn is recommended reading for any self-respecting Stephenie Meyer fan.

Lion Kings-Timon and Pumba(In 3D)

      Thankfully, a lot of care and good taste has been lavished on this 3D upgrade of Disney's 1994 blockbuster toon The Lion King. This oh-so-appealing affair is the story of the heroic Simba (voiced by Matthew Broderick), a young lion cub wrongfully banished from his tribe after the tragic death of his father, the noble Mufasa (James Earl Jones).

     As Simba valiantly attempts to reclaim his rightful place, his evil uncle Scar (Jeremy Irons) does all he can to get rid of Simba once and for all. Seasoned TV buffs will already be aware this film owes a huge debt to a fantastic Japanese series from the 1960s titled Kimba the White Lion. Where The Lion King does come into its own is through its mesmerising visual design, now further enhanced thanks to the remastering process that preceded the transition to 3D. It is also hard to find fault with the excellent work of the voice cast, particularly Irons and those sinister intonations only he can do so well.

     When compared with the weak line-up of new releases currently on offer, a golden oldie such as The Lion King should be the clear top pick for kids these school holidays.
