A New Children's Series I'm very Excited to Begin as an Adult

So, I remember when the movie that's inspired by this series came out, and it took a few years, but I'm finally getting around to reading it. This first book was great--I did notice it was more fun to read out loud than read silently to myself, but it's also a children's book, so that's somewhat to be expected. It takes a little bit for the book to get going, but once it get's going it doesn't stop. I read the book all in one night, and plan on purchasing the rest of the series to read for myself and save for my children one day. My main issue (it's not an issue for me, but it should be brought up) The book is a bit dark, so I really don't know what age to recommend this to. Parts of it feel targeted towards a children of about seven or eight, but then some of the parts are sort of scary and feel more like their meant for twelve years or so. I guess ten is a good age? If you like this, you might like The Chronicle's of Narnia books or the Percy Jackson Series.

Awesome look @ who Santa once was!!!

The story is awesome! I love the movie, Rise of the Guardians, that this series is based off the first book or maybe all, not sure. My 6 & 7 yr old boys were excited to get to the next chapter & were THRILLED when E. Aster Bunnymund arrived today! Super happy w the series so far. So glad I picked this one up as a Xmas gift for our boys!!! It helped keep the magic of Santa Claus alive in one of my doubting little boys.
