5.0 out of 5 stars
funny,
This review is from: Of Mice and Magic (Paperback)
This book is hysterically funny, but the humor is way above any 8yr old's head. My little sister got this book for christmas, and I picked it up to look at it. After only reading the first couple of paragraphs, I was laughing so hard I could barely breathe. I found myself reading the whole book through, and never really stopped laughing the entire time. I found it funny mostly because of how crazy and extreme most of the characters were, but the humor is more easily seen by an adult than a young child.

A fun and imaginative adventure...,
This review is from: Of Mice and Magic (Paperback)
Ben Ravenspell says he wants a pet, but what he really wants is a friend. He finds one in the form of Amber, a magical mouse who quickly and literally changes Ben's life by turning him into a mouse. Together, they learn and grow in courage, resourcefulness, friendship...and of course, magic.
Visual images are conjured up in the reader's mind through vivid and often humorous descriptions like this gem: "The pet shop mice had fallen asleep on a pizza, huddling together for warmth. They lay there, fast asleep, as if they were pizza toppings ordered by a cat." (pp. 213-214) This is a fun and imaginative adventure into a world of mice and magic from which the young reader will return with a sense of awe and a new respect for those small creatures we often refer to as "vermin."

New favorite audio book,
By
This review is from: Of Mice and Magic (Paperback)
Our new favorite book on tape! Very original and unusual. Not a rehash of your typical talking magical animals on an adventure. If your family enjoys the Redwall series or similar titles then you will enjoy this. There were a few times when we backed the audio up to make sure we actually heard what we thought we heard. It would make a good movie. I can't believe this isn't more popular! The reader's voice was very enjoyable in the audio addition we found, and he did the different characters in a convincing manner. We are looking for a sequel!
