The Search For Wond-La is hardcover available from Simon and Schuster for $19.99, author Tony Diterlizzi. This one gets $$$$ out of $$$$$ for tweens. Now available in softcover too. This, I just discovered, is one of a trio of books set in Wond-La. I have also just learned they are searching for actors to play these characters in a movie series of the books. (I apologize thaat my phone cut off the end of the vlog.) I received a copy of this book for purposes of reviewing.
Tales From the Treehouse: Jane and The Raven King
Jane and The Raven King is by Stephen Chambers, Sourcebooks, Jabberwocky, published last month Dec. 2010, $6.99 US and $8.99 Canadian, paperback, 256 pages.
My full written review is at New York Journal of Books.
This one gets five $$$$$ out of $$$$$. We thoroughly loved this character and her quest to save the world. Great strong plot and compelling adventure fantasy fiction for ages nine to 12.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
