National Geographic books are on my list of favorites. I always love the interesting, new, weird, and crazy fun facts that they have to share with everybody! I always love reading their almanacs, because there's so much in them, and you can turn to any page and read for hours on end. Also, I'd really appreciate receiving this book, because it's something that I could definitely use to pass time while in the hospital.

Michael Buckley is hilarious. I love how he take characters from a bunch of places (like Alice in wonderland and the Wizard of Oz) along with all the classic fairy-tales, throws in a dysfunctional family and a sausage loving dog, creating the best (and funniest) series anyone could possibly read.

This is a very interesting book, and I love books that include stories inside them. This actually takes place in an inn, where many different types of people tell stories of three young children, and a dog, named Gwenforte, which is a very strange name for a dog. The stories include the three children, and their dog, and talk about their adventures. These children are special: From seeing the future, to having supernatural powers, to healing any wound, these children are remarkable creatures. From adventures with dragons, to kings, to castles (in the year 1242), these kids have experienced it all. Each chapter is a different part, told by a different person. I would recommend this book to people who like fairytales, fiction, and a bit of adventure!

I absolutely loved the book, especially the plot. George (her real name is Georgina, but she doesn't much like that name), goes to live with her Aunt Henrietta (Also known as Chicken, by her Uncle Constantine), and Uncle Constantine, when her parents go on a hunt to find her brother. On the first night that she's there, her Uncle Constantine tells her a story of a meteor shower that lasts for seven days, and the first time this happened, the seven smartest, wisest, and kindest people were put into a group known as the Council. Their job was to restore order between the worlds, to prevent more stars from falling, and the worlds from ending. There was the Judge, Timekeeper, Innocent, Engineer, Guide, Recorder, and Unlikely. The Council has since broken apart, but must be restored before the seventh night of the upcoming meteor shower, otherwise the worlds will drown under the weight of the stars. George, with her friends, Mikal and Caleb, along with a talking map, Cavendish, must restore order and retrieve George's kidnapped aunt, and her missing uncle, before it is too late. Will they be able to do it? Or will it prove to be too hard a burden for their strong, but small team? Read the book to find out!

i love this book my tether had it when i was 8 or 9

My FAVORITE genre is Fractured Fairy Tales. I love seeing old characters come to life in new ways. I also cannot wait to get my hands on the fifth book (and the rest of the series - squee!)

First off, I'd like to say that I recommend this book to everybody, even adults. The stories of these artists in this book are quite interesting, especially facts about their childhood. This book is one of the books that you can just pick up and open to any of the chapters and just start reading, and it actually makes sense, because you don't need any of the details from before that chapter. This book is good for younger kids as well, because there are many hand-drawn pictures (some of which I found to be very funny! :). I would definitely recommend this book to anybody that like biographies, history, and anybody interested in art. Definitely 5/5 stars.
