Samuel and Martha’s new life with their aunt Eda in Norway is filled with rules, but most important is rule number nine: NEVER—UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES— GO INTO THE FOREST. Sure, their uncle Henrik disappeared in the forest ten years ago, but it can’t be the forest’s fault…can it? Samuel is skeptical until he finds an unusual book, The Creatures of Shadow Forest, which describes the fantastic and sinister creatures supposedly living there. Could Aunt Eda be right? Samuel discovers the truth about the forest’s dangerous secrets when Martha becomes lost in the forest, and it’s up to him to save her.

Wouldn't go much under ten for the reader's age,
This review is from: Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest (Hardcover)
I started to read this to my 6 year old and though she liked it, she said to stop reading it even before the boy enters the forest - too scary and sad (the parents die in a car wreck, sister becomes an elective mute, Samuel hates his aunt who lost her husband to the forest) and the forest is described in scary terms. I continued to read it to myself and thought it was a great boook (I read the end to my daughter and she liked that).

Great Book,

This review is from: Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest (Mass Market Paperback)
I am always on the lookout for new books for my grandchildren. This one fits the bill. It is scary, but not too scary....funny....sad.....and has a good ending. I would not recommend it for children under the age of 10 to 12 though. It will definitely be on my grandsons' gift list for next year.

This review is from: Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest (Hardcover)
My nine-year-old couldn't put this book down--it is well-written and interesting, with just enough suspense and comedy for a boy this age.
