### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not just for kids!
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2013*

The whole family ended up reading this book--from Nana (70) to little bro (8). We also listed to the audio version, which has a fabulous reader. Everyone loved the story! My daughter, who is in 6th grade and had resisted the novel because I suggested it (we're at that stage...), ended up falling in love with the book and has read it numerous times. My eight-year-old surprised me by not only loving the story but also developing an interest in World War II. I thought that elements of the story might be confusing for him, but instead of being confused he became very curious and began asking questions about the McCarthy era and drawing parallels between those times and our own. The magical bits are well done--fantastic and yet still believable. It's funny and has a touch of romance, but not so much that boys are put off by yucky "girl" stuff. The mix of characters makes the book appealing to both girls and boys (not an easy task in the YA world). And there is enough adventure to make everybody ask for "one more chapter!" when you say it's time for bed.Bottom line, this is a fabulous book with characters you will have such affection for that you will be sorry to see the story end. It's literary and engaging and well written and yet the whole family can enjoy it (the audio version is particularly great for multigenerational family car trips). We can't wait for the sequel! (And if you are a grownup, be sure to check out Maile Meloy's other work, which is equally awesome, though very different.)

    Great Read!
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2024*

Intended for a younger audience but this book is a great adventure for the adult with a touch of magic nostalgia.  I also have it on audio and have listened many times.

    Can't put it down!
  

*by G***O on Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2021*

This book keeps the reader pulled into the unfolding and intriguing story! We do "family read aloud" with a book each night and this tradition continues to be popular even as our kids age (now 11 and 13). This book was so good, all of us had difficulty putting it down. We've bought the other two in the series and have recommended it to friends and given it as gifts. High quality story (my kids describe it as a mostly "spy action" story with a minor coming-of-age reference to slight interest in another student, but it is not distracting to the story.) It has solid character development, interesting for both girls and boys, no foul language, respectfulndult interaction by the characters who are kids. Highly recommend the read.
