I think it is EPIC IT is easy to read for ks2
This amazing book is all about a boy called Karl and he is a clock worker`s apprentice. He has got to make a figure for the clock tower ceremony. Karl did not make a figure then this creepy person called Dr Kalemenius who had made a killing machine and given it to Karl. However, he did not tell Karl that it was a horrible clock work monster. My opinion about the story is that it is an amazing book and it is suitable for all ks2 children as well as adults. It is an intriguing book full of adventures with two stories merging into one which is very fun as well as confusing. It also makes a great scary story for a present. I would recommend this book to Ks2 and up because it will thrill you and keep you on your toes the whole way through the story.

The book Clockwork is like a story within a story within a story within a story. There is a character called Karl (one of the main characters) and he has a cunning plan to use the robot, that Dr. Kalmenius gave him, to kill people. He thought that killing people would give him money. Dr. Kalmenius is the cleverest person in the country because he can even make clockwork children, like Prince Flourian. Read this book and find out who the prince is and his unusual story.
