A most beautiful book
I bought this book for my daughter on her sixth birthday. It became the story of our love for each other. The Enchanter's Daughter sees through the riches and jewels and learning of her "father," with whom she lives all alone in a magnificent castle. One day, she asks where her mother is, and the Enchanter grows deathly pale. He knows, as do we, that the love of the girl for her mother will ...

I loved it . . .
I really loved this book and think you should buy it. Of course, I'm married to the author, but that in no way colors my advice. It's a lovely book.

Funny and entertaining
The littlest ones will seize on Agee's bold and hilarious illustrations as they follow the understated story of an early transatlantic flyer who runs out of gas in the French countryside and turns his inept hand briefly to farming before going on to accolades in Paris, a new flying adventure -- and disaster.

a very odd and wonderful book
Like most of Steig's books, very odd and wonderful. Leonard's adventures with a jungle of snakes, a strange bird and other odd creatures are bizarre and dream-like while at the same time quite matter-of-fact. Anyone might encounter his parents trapped under a bell-jar in the middle of a jungle, peacefully reading the newspaper. A wonderful book because it treats odd and potentially scary ...

Haunting but wonderful tale of bravery
I read this for the first time as a child. More than 20 years later I still remembered part of the title and how this brave girl had walked to her new home after her mother had passed away. The story stuck with me for more than 20 years. I was delighted to find it and get a second-hand hardbound copy through Amazon so that I could read it for the first time in years. This book still makes me ...

The Gold of Dreams
The book The Gold of Dreams by Jose Maria Marino is an enchanting tale about a young Mexican boy who goes on a treasure hunt with his godfather and an old family friend. The book was quite good except for the fact that the book started out fairly slowly. During the boy's journey, the purpose was to find treasure. The purpose soon became to survive... I would recommend this book because it is ...

Very intriguing
I really enjoyed this book. It isn't your typical 'young boy with obstacles must struggle to overcome' because you are never completely sure what's real and what isn't. Are his friends real, or figments of his imagination? I was also left with the sense, at the end of the book, that the apparent conclusion might not actually have been. If you like the teenage 'misfit with the undesirable ...
