‘Teacher’s Dead’ by Benjamin Zephaniah

Teacher's deadJackson Jones is a boy at school who witnessed two other students killing Mr Joseph with a knife during lunchtime. Jackson tries to find out the real truth about Mr Joseph was killed. Jackson also gets bullied along the way by Terry Stock and his gang.  This book is exciting, filled with lots of action, suspense and mystery. The characters that are in the book are interesting. I enjoyed finding out about Lionel and Ramzi’s lives. If I were to give the book another title, it would be ‘Stabbing Sir’. Ryan, Year 9 http://www.benjaminzephaniah.com/content/index.php
