Book Review - Ned Kelly

By Shota Itagaki

I would like to talk about Ned Kelly. This book is written by Christine Lindop. This is a true story in Australia.

The main character is Ned Kelly. His real name is Edward Kelly. He was born in 1855. He has 8 siblings. His family is very poor. Those days, the police don’t like poor people because the poor people steal horses and money for their lives. Kelly also committed crimes when he was young. Moreover, the police bully a lot of innocent poor people. This incident makes him angry. He decides to fight the police for poor people. He robs a bank and gives them money. He kills three police with his companions. All these are for poor people, but these are criminal. Finally, he is hanged in June 1880.

Some people say he is a brave man. Some people say he is a fool. Some people say his is a just killer. I think he is a brave man because he fights very hard for poor people. H is also loved by many people. It is very interesting. There are many books and DVDs about Ned Kelly. Would you like to read the book or watch DVDs?
