Customer Reviews

One of my top twenty recommendations for family reading.

As a children's librarian, I recommend many books to families who like to read aloud together. If a family has already read and liked CHARLOTTE'S WEB, or REDWALL, or THE ORDINARY PRINCESS, I recommend GILDAEN. A wonderful read that will appeal to a wide age range.
