4.0 out of 5 stars I love the Dillons!!
I automatically buy any book that I notice is done by Leo and Diane Dillon, so when I noticed this one, of course, I had to preorder it. I thought the story was enjoyable and had a good ending, which pulled everything together nicely. The only drawback is that a couple of the illustrations were a little blurry. Either they were scanned poorly, or they were enlarged...

3.0 out of 5 stars Are some of the words a barrier to book's enjoyment....
Even though Amazon.com suggests this book for ages 4 to 8, I have some reservations. There is terminology of fables (i.e., sorcerer, basilisk, undine, centaur) throughout the story. I wonder if this age group can fully understand and appreciate the story's intent.

I thought the story was enjoyable and had a good ending, which pulled everything together nicely. The only drawback is that a couple of the illustrations were a little blurry. Either they were scanned poorly, or they were enlarged from their original size. It don't think this should dissuade anyone from buying this book, though - it's beautiful and worth the purchase.
