Endymion Spring
by
Skelton, Matthew
Endymion Spring by Mathew Skelton is a story about magic and intrigue. The book parallels the lives of two boys, one living in Germany in 1452 and the other in present day England. Endymion Spring is a mute apprentice to Johann Gutenberg, inventor of the printing press in 15th century Germany. Endymion is introduced to the evil Johann Fust who has a mysterious book that only Endymion can see the words. Centuries later, a young American named Blake is temporarily living at Oxford with his mother and sister. Bored, he spends time in the library and discovers Endymion's book. Like Endymion, only Blake can see words on the pages. Both boys are pursued by Evil and take great risks to protect their book. The best scene takes place in the underground library where books are literally flying off the shelf which is reminiscent of Harry Potter. Like Harry Potter, Good eventually triumphs over Evil. However, Blake is not Harry Potter and the author raises questions that are not answered such as why were only Endymion and Blake able to see the words in the book? The book is written for 11 to 13 year olds who may be overwhelmed by the vocabulary. After a very slow start, the book improves and by the last hundred pages is hard to put down so the sequel (if written) should be great! Reviewed by Ross Bilger, Los Altos. |

Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes
What a lovely book to read with your baby in your lap! The winning combination of Mem Fox's lilting text and Helen Oxenbury's delightful illustrations make this book a perfect baby gift. The lovely refrain will become part of a parent and child's bedtime routine, 'And this little baby, as everyone knows, has ten little fingers and ten little toes, and three little kisses on the tip of her nose!'--Linda Ronberg, Linden Tree Children's Recordings &Books (Los Altos, CA) |
