If your young reader loves fantastical, epic stories, this
is the book for him! I bought a copy for my grandson for Christmas, and it
promptly got lost on his bookshelf. I thought I’d read it myself so I could
entice him with a few juicy plot points. I have a lot to choose from!
In this book, there are:
aliens,vampires,
pirates,
piranhas,
volcano gods,
a Stegosaurus in a hot-air balloon with a time machine,…
and two kids waiting for milk.
There is also a pile of wild pen-and-ink illustrations. (I
think it might be fun for a kid to take markers to the pages to bring even more
imagination to the story.)
This is definitely worth the read.
Would you recommend
this to a friend?
Yes. Highly.
