5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read, August 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Secret World of Og (Paperback)

I remember when I was in grade five and six my teacher read this book to my class at the end of the year for fun, (because obviously there wasn't much left to do). And like many of the other reviewers I remember it and have been looking for it for a very long time. I think its a wonderful book for children of any age. There is an adventurous nature mixed in with the fantasy, which makes it light and humorous if you are an adult, enthralling if you are a young child, and quite intriguing and conversation provoking when you are in or around your teens. Definitely a must have book for people of any age!

This review is from: The Secret World of Og (Paperback)

This book was read as a class project when I was 10 years old by one of my favorate teachers. Three years later, my sister had the same teacher and the same project. This became our favorate book, but we never saw a copy outside the classroom. We talked about it on occasion over the years and (we were now in our forties) my sister ran across it on Amazon and ordered copies for each of us. I received mine on Christmas morning (best present that year). We were able to enjoy reading it once again and pass it on to our children and hopefully our grandchildren when it's time. Highly recommended - it's a book you don't forget and those are rare indeed.

I read this story back in grade 4, and I never forgot how magical it was. Now, at the age of 19, I finally received it as a Christmas present from my sister. This story is by far one of the most magical stories I have ever read. It was fantastic, and completely unforgettable.
