John Midas is a great book! My favorite part is when he fights the serpent. He gets stuck in the serpent's mouth. If you want to know what happened then read the book.

John and his family go to Australia for Christmas and when they go to Ayers Rock the adventure begins. Mr. Ngoru tells John not to go in but he doesn't listen and he goes in anyway. There on the other side of Uluru, he meets the aborigines. If you want to know more, read John Midas in the Dreamtime. The book was great because the adventure was about the aborigines and I learned more about the aborigines.

This book is great! It has a lot of action. John goes to Australia. John goes to Ayers rock and finds a cave. When John runs in, he finds himself in the dreamtime. John has to teach the aborigines how to survive. If you want to find out more, read the book. I would recommend this book because it taught me how it was a long time ago in the dreamtime.

I am now 25 and still remember this book very fondly. It includes elements of time travel, a foreign country, the aboriginal culture and some fantastic beasts. What more could a kid ask for? I must have read it when I was ten years old or so. I'm not sure why it got a negative editorial review, maybe the critic is out of touch with kids!
