Bought for my daughter, 12, who asked for it after seeing a poster at the library. She loved this book, except for the end....only because she didn't want it to end, she wanted to read more!!!! Recommend for any young reader!

My daughter and I read this book at the same time and enjoyed discussing the story. The book provides kids with adventure, cultural information, and a range of interpersonal relationships. Teaches kids to make the best of a situation that initially seems negative. We can't wait for the sequel!

My daughter Enjoyed this book so much that she not only reads it from my kindle but has memorized it as well. She particularly likes the ending and I do too!

When I asked our 9 year old daughter if this was a good book she said, "No.  It is a GREAT book!"  Enough said. He friends also read it and enjoyed it very much.  They are looking forward to the next one.

Fun, Funny, Adventurous and Unique!  My 10 year old daughter LOVED this book enough to read it twice so far.  This author should publish more.  If she does, we will be first in line for the next book.

I was lucky enough to win this book and my 10-year-old stepdaughter (a literature fiend) agreed to read and review this book. She was happy to report there were several struggles going on with the character that kept her interested throughout the book. She liked that it touched on topics which kids really deal with these days in school and at home. She enjoys a good drama and this did not disappoint. She says this would be a great book for girls in elementary school who feel they may be dealing with bullying but also said the cancer and Dreamer would appeal to boys or girls. She says she would recommend this book to her friends!

My Daughters Love this book! We sit & read it while sitting in the Doctor's office, at taekwondo, at bedtime! She loves reading this book & enjoyed sharing it w/her friends at a bday party! We love reading in our household so when we can find a good fun book for all of us to read we tend to read it over & over again! Thanks for writing such a great uplifting story for her to read & learn a valuable lesson!

My middle daughter read it to another lil girl in the waiting room while at the doctors the other day & she absolutely loved it as well & her mom bought it on the spot! Again Great story! looking forward to reading more!

I had a great time reading this with my daughter. It is really a perfect story for that age (she is 8), she loved it - even the part with the glass eye (which she thought was "gross" - but was clearly facinated with it too).

So where is the sequel already?

This is a great book! My 10 year old daughter has loved this book since she was 8 and found it in her school library. Its a comic book style book and its very unique because you get to choose the direction of the story by making choices along the way. Its one of those books that my daughter picks up up again and again because there are so many variations to it. We purchased the hard cover edition of  this book and it is made so nicely! The hard covered book uses paper that is thick and durable.

On a side note... while My daughter absolutely loves to read, I think it would be great for a child that may not find reading very exciting...this may just be the type of book that sparks their interest because its different, its not a heavy read and it gives kiddos choices!

We read this book to my second-grade daughter after reading The Wide-Awake Princess. My daughter loved the brave princess Annie's adventurousness, and enjoyed how the book incorporated familiar fairy tales with a twist. I liked how Annie uses her mind and experience to solve problems, rather than relying on magice, like so many others in the book do. It is a great message for a girl to excel being her "true self", rather than relying on help and "saving" from fairy godmothers. I would recommend this book for second-grade and up - there is a lot of great but hard-to-understand vocabulary for younger ones, but reading with a parent helps.

I was looking for a few books for my daughter to read over the summer and this one is great! It for girls, in their language, with their kind of predicaments and easy reading material. Nothing too educational that would completely turn the child off from reading but at the same time does have moral learning throughout the book. Thank you!

A GREAT book for young girls! I bought this for my 6-year-old daughter who was Bat Girl for Halloween and wanted to give her a lasting memento of "Girl Power." She loved learning about all the different female superheros. Highly recommend.

My 11 year old daughter read this book a few years ago.  She loved the Percy Jackson series and loves a good mystery.  We received a draft copy from the author (I think through her librarian).  My daughter loved it.  I ran across our pre print version and was curious if it was published.  Looks like it was and got positive reviews similar to what my daughter thought of it.  My 12 year old son is now ready to read it.  Thanks again for a good book!
