Probably the only one in the movie theater above the age of thirteen, but I didn't care. It was my twenty-second birthday, and I was going to watch the movie I wanted to see - even if I was alone. It was my birthday gift to myself, watching Ella Enchanted. I was interested in this movie, even though it was directed toward the average age of ten, because I had read the book at ...             Alanna: The First Adventure (Song of the Lioness (Topeka Bindery))576 reviews T. Pierce Topeka Bindery, 2005 Modern Classic for Young Adult Fantasy Readers A tale of growing up and acceptance with a strong female lead who shows, without being ultra feminist, that girls can accomplish anything that boys can.             The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches (Signature Illustrated Edition, Keeper Martin's Tales Book 1) ...316 reviews Robert Stanek Reagent Press Books for Young Readers, 2007 Excellent, Beautifully Written and Wonderfully Illustrated! About a year ago I decided to start reading 'The Kingdoms and the Elves' series because I had heard so much praise about them. When I read the first one, I was totally amazed and by the second one Robert Stanek was my new favorite author. In this opening volume, Stanek takes you into the unforgettable fantasy universe of Ruin Mist. Ruin Mist was once ruled by mighty dragons and titans, but ...             Page117 reviews Laurel Leaf, 2007 Tamora Pierce Tamora Pierce is an excellent writer. All of her books really put you into the stories and make you feel as though you know the characters personally. This book is no different.             The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches II (Keeper Martin's Tales, Book 2, Special Illustrated Edition) ...156 reviews Robert Stanek Reagent Press Echo, 2007 Return to the Kingdoms of men where legends and heroes are born Reviewers who call Robert Stanek "America's Tolkien" are right on. Reviewers who call this series "the Narnia and Rings of our time" are right on too. It is rare to find an author who can write successfully across genres and age groups, and Robert Stanek is one such author. His books always have solid writing, good pacing, strong plotting, and great characters. The Kingdoms and the Elves of ...             Dealing with Dragons: The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, Book One300 reviews Patricia C. Wrede Magic Carpet Books, 2002 on audio Princess Cimorene is tired of embroidery, etiquette, and protocol classes. She wants to take Latin, fencing, magic, and cooking lessons instead.

As a dragon's princess, Cimorene gets the freedom to cook and clean and to organize ...             The Ordinary Princess101 reviews Puffin, 2002 M.M. Kaye's The Ordinary Princess: Ordinary and Fantastic in Delightful Harmony One may know the story of the servant girl who gets to go to the ball, the story of the beautiful girl that falls in love with the beast, the princess that is finally awakened by a kiss from a dashing prince. But, it is quite possible that one may go half of her life before ever hearing the story of another girl, a princess in fact, who was born once upon a time in a land called Phantasmorania. ...             Mara, Daughter of the Nile157 reviews Eloise Jarvis McGraw Topeka Bindery, 1999 Who doesn't love this novel. Wow, I must've read this book a hundred times as a teenager. I still pull it off my shelf from time to time and read it again.             Goose Girl121 reviews S Hale Rebound by Sagebrush, 2005 I <3ed dis BOOK!!!!!!! Goose Girl by Shannon Hall is like a realistic fairytale. Sure, it has its share of magic, but everything just feels so possible and there is such a struggle for finding one's place. Princess Anidora is such an inspiring character because her problems don't just solve themselves and she needs the help of others. Ani, also known as Isi, is someone that you want to sympathize with because to be ...             The Little Prince: 25th Anniversary Gift Boxed Edition191 reviews Antoine de Saint Exupery Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1971 Little Prince speaks to the child in me I was an adult when i read this book, and i really appreciated the lessons in life that Saint-Exupery shares through the Little Prince. A great book, full of beautiful illustrations, easy to read, while fun and sad at the same time. I personally read it as if Exupery is sharing with us the conversations he has with his own inner child, in the image of the Little Prince. That is why the ...             The Silver Crown99 reviews Robert C. O'Brien Recorded Books, 2003 A Fantastic Dark Fantasy Story I first this book when I was about 12, and it remains on my shelf to this day (I'm now 35.) I highly recommend it for kids who enjoy fantasy books. Yes, it's dark and has genuinely creepy moments in it--but I see no reason that should discourage young readers or their parents, as it's an extremely engaging tale of a little girl battling the forces of evil. Resourceful girl characters are in ...             Shadow Castle101 reviews Marian Cockrell Topeka Bindery, 2000 Delicious! What a pleasure to see this charming children's chapter book back in print. It was a favorite of mine when I was grade-school age, and an old, taped-up and battered copy still sits on on my bookshelf. In this tale, the lives and adventures of a family of fairies and half-fairies are paraded before the eyes of Lucy, a little human girl who has wandered into the borderlands of their world. A ...             King of Attolia45 reviews Megan Whalen Turner Topeka Bindery, 2007 Awesome book! This book is really good, one of the best I have read. I recommend it along with reading the first two: The Thief and The Queen of Attolia first.             Destined to Reign: The Secret to Effortless Success, Wholeness and Victorious Living46 reviews Treasures Media Inc, 2008 Inspirational This is the best inspirational book around. It is up lifting! Better than Joel Osteens a Better you. I highly recomend this book Ihave bought 3 copies to give as gifts.             King Bidgood's in the Bathtub50 reviews Audrey Wood Harcourt Children's Books, 1985 2.5 Year Old FAVORITE book! She recieved this book for a 2 year birthday present and she reads it every day and asks to play the CD so much that I had to put it on the ipod and keep a copy in the car. She loved it so much that I bought a copy for pre-school becuase she kept taking it there. The drawings are beautiful and the story is so funny. We use different voices for the different characters and laugh and laugh reading ...             The Legend of Holly Claus (Julie Andrews Collection)32 reviews Brittney Ryan, Laurel Long Enchanting I loved this book it brought me back to my child hood in a fun and loving way. I thought it was well written, I did not want to end. I hope the Author writes a sequel             In the Service of Dragons59 reviews Robert Stanek Reagent Press, 2005 In the Service of Dragon = addiction Just a warning here, these books are like potato chips, it's very difficult to eat only one!!! ...and then you'll find yourself walking around singing Eldrick's song of the tree brothers or longing to reread the part where Vilmos plays Edward in King's Mate or wanting to jump ahead to get to the next trio match. I bought this book around Christmastime and found the story to be fascinating. As ...             The Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches (Reader's Choice Edition, Keeper Martin's Tales Book 1) (Keeper ...85 reviews Robert Stanek Reagent Press Books for Young Readers, 2008 Enter the Kingdoms! My 14 yr. old son is a huge fan of the Kingdoms books and I must admit I am too. Robert Stanek is indeed America's Tolkien, a gifted story-teller with a knack for creating believable worlds and fully-realized characters. Many of the characters become like old friends and even the minor characters truly are interesting and real. The story itself is detailed and rich but Stanek doesn't allow the ...             Anne of the Island (Anne of Green Gables Novels) (Anne of Green Gables Novels) (Anne of Green Gables Novels)65 reviews L. M. Montgomery Amereon Limited, 1987 i read this over and over again. this book never gets old. i've had it for so long and now i'm off to college and i still enjoy reading it cover to cover. anne is a great character, one who is easy to love and who explains herself well. the other characters are also quirky. something about this book is very universal, which i think explains why even in this century i still find myself being able to relate to Anne. the plot, ...             Juniper50 reviews Monica Furlong Random House Books for Young Readers, 2004 Definately read this... If you have read Wise Child...(I don't know, I read Wise Child first--I don't know if that's out of order or not)...anyway, this is a great book to go along with Wise Child.
