Recenzii
“Levine’s
prose
is
clear
and
accessible,
and
her
invented
world,
with
its
quirky
inhabitants
and
distinctive
vocabulary,
is
pleasantly
unpredictable
and
nonthreatening-even
with
a
volcanic
eruption
in
the
offing.”
The writing is consistently engaging, and the story’s deliberate pace will encourage kids to observe the characters and solve the mystery before all is revealed. A satisfying mixture of fantasy, mystery, and adventure.
here is plenty of adventure and mystery to engage readers, and fans of Levine’s other works will be pleased to see this in the collection.
