One of my favorite books! The paintings are beautiful, and Clive Barkers words make Abarat come alive. A must read for anyone who is a fan of Alice in Wonderland, Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, and Peter Pan.

I truely love this book, but get the hardcover. The trade paperback falls apart, (really bad binding.) Everyone I know who has this, the pages are falling out, and it really is a treasure you will want to keep together.

I loved this series, but the end was a little disapointing to me.

Winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards. Utopia can be a very dangerous place.


The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles 30th Anniversary Edition (Julie Andrews Collection)
Review Date: 12/19/2006


This was one of my favorite kids books when I was in 4th grade. My teacher read it out loud. I highly recomend it for this purpose. Upon rereading it I still love it, but the story is not as amazing as I remembered it. I think that my imagination couldn't keep up with this one like it used to.

This book is really interesting with some amazing signs of lost animals from all over the world. Some of them are really entertaining, but its sad to know there was a missing animal attached to each of them.

The second book of the Alvin Maker series was a really great read. I couldn't put it down. If you enjoy fantasy, and would like to see it set in early America, enjoy!

Some pages have underlines in pencil. Not very obtrusive. Does not interfere with reading.


The Sign of the Seahorse: A Tale of Greed and High Adventure in Two Acts
Review Date: 2/8/2007


Sign of the Seahorse is Graeme Bases greatest book. Its illustrations are of course amazing, however the entire story is witty and beautiful. I love reading this one out loud, and I can stare endlessly at the art. A masterpiece of a childrens book.

Worst band in the universe is an incredible read. Graeme Base's pictures are more colorful than ever before, and the story is a joy to read! An amazing book that will entertain anyone. It even comes with a CD featuring the music that is being played in the book. Very awesome picture book!
