yes i think the characters are realistic because when you read the book it feels like your in the book and your with them.

Fliss is main character and she has a bad dream and then she goes to her Mom and says she don't want to go to the trip but her mom says it's just dream, so don't worry . The story is predictable but I feel that it is more about friendship than the plot itself, as it is re-telling a well- know tale but more from the point of view of an observer rather than the villain or the victim.Room 13 is a Gothic-horror children's novel written by the acclaimed award-winning children's author Robert Swindells. Published in 1989, it was awarded the Red House Children's Book Award. [2] The novel centres around a group of friends on a school trip, who stay in a creepy guest house on Whitby's West Cliff. this book is about a class that when into an hotel and there was something wrong about it.This genre is horror you can tell because of the front cover and how the girl is opening the door. Multiplying and Dividing by 10, 100, 1000 (taken from Fraction, Decimals and Percentages objectives) Romanzo di culto del genere horror per ragazzi, La stanza 13 è una tappa obbligatoria che ho saltato durante l’infanzia e mi sono ritrovata a recuperare sulla soglia dei 30 anni. Bene ma non benissimo, mi dicono dalla regia. All character from book are really likeable, story line was perfect and my favourite chapter is 13 because it's just amazing.

There is no room thirteen in the creepy Crow's Nest Hotel, where Fliss and her friends are staying on a school trip. Or is there? For at the stroke of midnight, something peculiar happens to the door of the linen cupboard next to room 12. And something is happening to Ellie-May Sunderland, too—something very sinister... This is really cute little book, despite it being a "horror". A horror for children, of course. I wasn't wholly convinced by the dialogue, and I am sadly a bit too old to really care for the storyline, but it was utterly charming to be completely transported. Whitby is almost a second home to me and I was walking down every street and entering every single shop with these children on their little holiday. The language used encapsulated the theme well, and the suspense building throughout was believable. The charecters are very likabel because when there acting you can tell if there rude of there sceared sometime they don't like each other but in the end the are triying to find out what is going on in the hotel.

Room 13 was really good book. I know I am lil bit older for this book but reading kid's book is always fun, and recently I been fond of them The character Fliss, goes on a journey throughout the book, I feel that her strength was always there, from the beginning, but her confidence in herself needed to come out. As the story progressed, we definitely saw her actions show us as a reader, that she was getting confident, but as a character she seemed to need a bit more convincing. The other characters were very stereo typical of the time, but the reader did see them actually not be who they were seen as in society. The characters interacted well, an convincing the reader was not hard, but we didn't get to see a lot of depth to them.

L’idea di per sé è funzionale: una gita scolastica, il mistero dell’albergo, un cittadina costiera che nasconde un segreto. A livello di narrazione, sfrutta bene le atmosfere e il mistero legato agli eventi che scombussoleranno Fliss, la protagonista. Persino le scene finali sono ben pensate e costruite, arrivando a un climax compatto e adrenalinico. urn:lcp:room130000swin:epub:3befe4c9-afd1-4b90-9c05-f7936513e2be Foldoutcount 0 Identifier room130000swin Identifier-ark ark:/13960/t6259tf5c Invoice 1652 Isbn 0440864658 Find sources: "Room 13"Swindells novel– news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR ( January 2008) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message) when she first got there her teachers were puting them in rooms.fliss got room 10 and besid her room there was a cupbored fliss has a bad dream and then she gose to her mum and says i dont want to go to the trip and then the mum says dont worryN.America: Expanded noun phrases, tenses, sentence types, inverted commas, commas to separate a list Un horror gotico per ragazzi intrigante e coinvolgente, capace di catturare l'attenzione fin dalle primissime righe. Robert Swindells was born in Bradford in 1939, the eldest of five children. He left the local Secondary Modern School at fifteen to work as a copy holder on the local newspaper. At seventeen he enlisted in the RAF and served for three years, two in Germany. On being discharged he worked as a clerk, engineer and printer until 1969 when he entered college to train as a teacher having obtained five 'O' levels at night-school. His first book ' When Darkness Comes' was written as a college thesis and published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1972. In 1980 he gave up teaching to write full time. He likes travelling and visits many schools each year, talking and reading stories to children. He is the secutatry of his local Peace Movement group. Brother in the Land is his first book for Oxford University Press. He is married with two grown-up daughters and lives in Bradford.

Seriously though, it is an amazing read and I definitely recommend it to any YA readers. I first read this book in my English class at school when I was about 14, at first I wasn't too into it, but after the first couple of chapters I really started to like it. Every English lesson I became very excited to continue with the book. It has been a favourite of mine for a long time. a girl called fliss had a scary dream.then when she goes on the trip all the things in her dream start comming true.they spy on ellie-may because they thought she was in trouble. The book itself is about a group of tennagers who go on a schooltrip to Whitby and stay in a hotel. The main protagonist (Fliss I think) realises there is no Room 13 except at Midnight when a cupboard transforms into it. (Kind of reminds me of Toms Midnight Garden for some reason. Like I said I have a thing about the number 13). In the book there a ton of other mysterious and spooky(?) things apart from the room itself. Most of it points to the most infamous vampire in literature - as the setting suggests.

Every night Ellie-May Sunderland is drawn to the landing outside the mysterious Room 13, which does not seem to exist during the day. Fliss and her friends attempt to unravel the mystery of the room, and determine the identity of its sinister inhabitant. I love the writing. I love the vivid descriptions of Whitby. Without harping on and saying too much, Swindells captures that coast beautifully.
