This was a really great book! I think it was as good as her book "Princess Academy". This is a very old and fairly unknown fairytale called "Maid Maleen. Of course she's taken it and changed it and made it very interesting. It really makes me want to go out and by a animal!!!

This is a book that Katie wanted desperately to buy. It's a good book about how prejudiced people are to others. The majority of prejudices caused by ignorance and fear. It was a good story about the importance of communication and relationships.

I read this book because my son David had read it. I really liked it until I got to the last chapter. Then it got really wierd and I was very uncomfortable with it. Then all the controversy about this author came out. I won't read the rest of the books.

This was a fun story written by a homeschool husband and wife. We loved it because at the time my kids were enrolled in a Shakespeare class. It really made it all come to life! We read it out loud and really enjoyed it!!!
