This review is from: WIZARD OF WINDSOR ISLAND: Giovanni's Missing Boat (Paperback)

The Feathered Quill book review is very accurate. [..]

The beginning is not hard to read but it is admittedly a bit too much detail for some. Some readers like detail & some don't. But it is quite easy to skim over family history of main character, the boy with magic, provided in only a few brief pages of Chapter one.

Chapter two is where the fun begins as Ben, the Wizard of Windsor Island, discovers his magic.

You can skip chapter 3 , all of about five pages, if you don't wish to learn about windsor island.

The rest of the book , chapters 4 -12, is easy reading and very entertaining. Written to entertain children without too much detail. Fun story telling. I promise you that once you read chapters 4 and 5 then you'll want to know how things work out in the end.

The book is easily appropriate for young readers.
