Our class has just finished an OBOB book. It was called Rooftoppers and it was written by: Katherine Rundell. The book was very interesting and had a lot of inspirational quotes. This book was about a girl named Sophie who was found in a cello case, floating around in the English Channel. A man named Charles found her and took her into his home. He raised her for the past 12 years. Then, Sophie on her 12th birthday knew her mother was alive and asked Charles to travel to France. Charles of course said yes. They traveled to France looking around for her mother. One day Sophie went on top of the roof of Hotel Boste and met an interesting boy named Matteo. Matteo told Sophie to stay off the rooftops. Eventually, the became friends. Soon, Sophie, Matteo, and his friends Safi, Gerade, and Anastasia. They all went on a journey trying to find Sophie’s mom and eventually, Charles started helping.
If I had to rate the book from 1-5 I would give it a 4 because in the end it was very disappointing. In the end Sophie found her mom and it ended that way. It didn’t explain what happened to Matteo, Charles, and Sophie and her mom after that. Also according to my other classmate the books average rating is 3. Other than the ending overall the book was amazing. I recommend you read the book.
