My #1 book ever
Recently, was at the book store helping my 10y son look for a book to read, I ran across a copy of "The Headless Cupid" I bought it and asked to order "The changeling" but they couldn't get it for me, So I turn to the internet (Got to love eBay) and found it. I read it as soon as I received it. I've ordered several more of Snyder's books as well. Maybe my kids will enjoy them as much as I have. ...

Ahhh..... Memories
I originally bought this book when I was a very young girl, almost 15 years ago, from a thrift shop. It was my favorite book. I recently went on a trip down memory lane by taking a look at all my favorite childhood books. This book is just as magical now for me as it was when I was young. It's a great book.

A fitting finale to Snyder's great trilogy.
Until the Celebration is the third book in Zilpha Keatley Snyder's fantasy (SF?) trilogy about a world where people make their homes in huge trees (which begins with Below the Root, and continues with And All Between.) All our favorite characters are back, and as usual, Snyder's book gives us no easy answers to the difficult questions of life. A beautiful and disturbing book.

'The Velvet Room' brings back fond memories
It's been decades since I was a young reader at Sevilla Elementary School in Phoenix, entranced with reading as many library books as I could carry home every few days. Usually, I only checked out each title once. One book, however, kept me coming back for more: "The Velvet Room." Maybe it was because the heroine in the book had a secret place of her own, something as the middle child among ...

A MUST READ!!
This book is one of those books that you can't stop reading. One heck of a horror tale! A book for all ages and an interesting story to tell your friends about, even if they hate scary stories and suspense.

To the green wood, green wood tree.
I suspect that I'm the only one who remembers this. In the early to mid 1980s I owned a Commodore 64 computer game (yes, I am that ancient and wise) called "Below the Root". In this game you could chose to be one of four players. A small boy named Raamo, a small girl named Pomma, a tall boy named Neric, or a tall girl named Genaa. The goal was to travel under the root, so to speak, to rescue ...

Read it in an Hour!
The Witches of Worm is about a girl named Jessica who finds a strange, hairless kitten she names Worm. As time goes on, Jessica believes that the cat is possesing her into doing mean things (ex.Washing her her mother's dry-clean dress.) She also thinks that the cat is being possesed by a group of witches, hence the name. Read this book, one of the best I've ever read! Snyder does it ...
