ReplyDeleteI really liked this book. It was really interesting and was humourous at the same time. The pictures were simple but were still good. The book teaches you about how countries are made and how to make them successful even though they might be just for fun and not for serious purposes. :)
Anna~! ;D

This book inspired me to make my own country. I'm desighning a flag, writing a national anthem, and even making things like laws and national foods up. I still need something to fill in the blank though: The Sovergein State Of _____________. My country is an oligarchy, my family rules it. My dad bought 500 acres for the country and is beginning construction.Soon we will begin to attract immigarnts. In 2 years I'm moving there. After people live there my dad will buy another 500 acres and construct more houses. After all this has been done, my country will have a vote and we will officially declare independence. This could take years though.
ReplyDeleteElisabeth >:)
I really liked the book "How to Build Your Own Country," but I really think it could have been longer. One thing I really liked about "How to Build Your Own Country" are the facts about real countries around the world.

I really liked the book how to build your own country because it was humourus and non-fiction at the same time. I would rate this book as an 8. I would also recommend this book to anyone!!!!
ReplyDeleteAbigail!!!
I thoght the book "How to Build your own Country", was kind of boring because I am not really into facts book like how to build stuff and like at first i was like oh this book is OK but then like in the middle I was like this book is sooo boring so I didnt really like the book.
ReplyDeleteAbi:(
P.S I would not recomand this book to people that dont like fact books.
I really liked this book because it has inspired me to build my own country in my bedroom, but I am also conquering the bathroom so I can get out of cleaning it. This book was humorous, and I liked the parts about citizens of Bathmatia and their national hair style, and the passports, anthem, motto, and map. It was cool how all those little kids, and older kids, and adults all made their own different countries. I think I shall adopt the National Scream Day for my country too, as it consists of only one person, the High and Honourable Queen Aurora, ruler of Bedroomistan. I don't have much to command though, which is why I want to scream. Aurora
ReplyDeleteI liked this book. It was cool how it shows you how Canada or other countries made that country.It also showed you how to make a flag and how to desing it. The book how to make your own country was a good book and was really funny.
ReplyDeleteNeal :D
The book how to build your own country was humorus and interesting the humorus part of was when the narrator was telling the story of bathamia and when ever you would get out of cleaning the bathroom because you were in controll of the bathdub. What I thought was interesting about how to build your own country was the tree of government so and I didnt relize there was so much to do to when you put together a government there are the taxes and the bills. jr G6
ReplyDeleteWhen I finished reading this book just today. Let put you on a secret, I started reading in the morning and finnished in the afternoon, can you belive it! probly because I couldn't tear myslef away from it or because I'm a quick reader. I found this book interesting, But I doubt that someone will build a new country. The part I liked best is when it said that even a bathmat can be country. I liked this part because it was funny.
ReplyDeleteSolah
This book was absolutely hilarious and the pictures were really funny! It also gave alot of info about how to rule your own country!! ERIC W
