Real page-turner

Reviewed by Brianne Plach (age 9) for Reader Views (3/07) I really liked "Things are Looking Grimm, Jill." This book brings to life many fairy tale characters like Humpty Dumpty, Prince Charming, Fairy Godmother, Cinderella, Rapunzel, and many others. It's a good book for ages 8-11. My favorite part of the book was when Mary gets letters from someone signed F.G and shares them with Jill. Another part I liked is where Jill has to dance with a guy Reginald who keeps stepping on her feet. This is a great book to read where you have familiar characters but in a non-fairy-tale way. Note from Brianne's mother: This book kept going to school with her so she could read it during her free time.
