Book reveiw: The wee free men

Age 9-14  stars: 5 author: Terry Pratchett

Summery:  Tiffany Aching armed with common sense, a frying pan and a whole lot of minds with in minds must go to fairy land and rescue her brother from a evil queen. But things are a little more complected than that ,especially since she finds her self leader of a clan of 6 inch high blue men who delight in drinking, steeling, and fighting .

Why I liked this book: Lots of humor lots of suspense. Really well written world. Defiantly one of my favorite books.

P.S. Its sequel A Hat Full of Sky is really good to.

The Name of this Book is Secret (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Book review: The name of this book is secret 

I half to say this is one of the best books I have read in quite a while.

The author makes up fake names for the charterers and never tells you the place they are at. A very funny and captivating book. I would recommend this to anyone who likes mystery and suspense.
