The Changeling (The Wormling) [Paperback]

Jerry B. Jenkins (Author), Chris Fabry (Author)

Book Description

Age Level: 10 and up | Grade Level: 5 and up | Series: The Wormling

“Nothing special” is the best way to describe Owen Reeder—at least that's what he's been told all his life. When a stranger visits his father's bookstore, Owen's ordinary life spirals out of control and right into a world he didn't even know existed. Owen believes the only gift he possesses is his ability to devour books, but he is about to be forced into a battle that will affect two worlds: his and the unknown world of the Lowlands. Perfect for readers ages 10 to 14 who enjoy a fast-paced story packed with action, fantasy, and humor.

This review is from: The Changeling (The Wormling) (Paperback)

I have enjoyed reading this book with my 9 year old. I thought since the description said 9-12, that I should read to my 9 year old. It is a great series, but I do think he could read and understand it just fine without me. Struggling learners or kids new to chapter books may find it hard to follow. But if your child is a good reader, and loves to read on his/her own, I highly recommend this series.

This book is marketed as a childrens book so I purchased it for my 10 year old son. Really...it should be marked T for teen. This is not a young child's series. With use of such descriptive phrases as the following:
"The guardian cringed as he saw houses strewn about the hillside, people clinging to trees, children stripped bare, shoes and clothes and kitchen utensils, and farm equipment hanging eerily in the treetops."
The book is excellent in terms of training for spiritual warfare.
