What did I like? I have read other books written by Barbara and some of her author friends and every one of them has filled me with humor. These two, Valentine and Halloween are no exception. They both cracked me up. The other book “The Fight for Magicallus” was amazing. I love children’s books and this one is right up there at the top of the pile. Humor, mystery, fun, and even scary, but all fighting to save Magicallus! You will enjoy it and I am sure your children will.
What will you like? Ready for some humor, these are filled with stumpers and humor. Quick wit and excellent writing will give you some amazing little quickies. The third book, “The Fight for Magicallus” is a magical book that takes two young brothers on this trip into a computer game, they are so cute and reminded me of my brothers. This was something that they would do. But, in my case it would not be a computer game, it would have been a program on TV. That for us was the most exciting close of the day, watching our favorite shows. (Mostly in B&W, LOL) These books are energetic and entertaining with lots of things happening. Excellent reads for all!
