A brilliantly original and dazzling novel for younger readers from the author of THE EVERYTHING MACHINE. Coffin-stealing, boat-burning, telling lies – Carla’s crazy plan includes them all. Her Grandpa’s written her a letter telling her his secret dream: she’s going to make it come true, she’s going to give him a real Viking funeral.

This book is fiction and I like it because I like risky and exciting and
people inside books. I recommend people like me to read this book.
My favourite character is Carla because like brave people and
mischievous and kind people.

Dangerous thing they did

Despite what I originally thought of as quite dodgy subject matter - death of a grandfather- this turned out to be a thoroughly enjoyable rip-roaring adventure! Lots of twists turns and jeopardy!

The children are planning for their Grandad's viking funeral and set fire to a toy boat to make sure it will work. They cause an incident because they did it near a nuclear power station! It was a fun story with lots of adventure

I really like this book because Three kids have a top-secret plan that breaks all the rules. Carla, Penny and Woody have one week to complete there grandpa’s last wish to give him a Viking Funeral. Can they pull off such a crazy plan?...
Or is this adventure DOOMED to DISASTER?

I really enjoyed the characters of this adventure story in particular I liked the character Woody and his go to attitude with regards to the encounters that occurred between him and his sister Carla with Grandpa on their way to sailing the boat VALKYRIE.

1) I think that this is a good book with exciting tension coming every chapter.

2) My favourite person is Carla. She pushes on to give her Grandpa what he derserves, a Viking Funarul, which was his dream but also elegall.

3) I would definatly recommend this book to someone else.

At first, I thought this book was really boring and dull because of the way it started. While I read on I really seemed to enjoy the book. MY favourite part was when Carla still made her grandpa's wish to come to life and took her time to do all of it for him. I would definitely recommend this book to someone really special!
