This is my favorite book! I recommend this book for people who love fantasy. I enjoy all the magic and exciting parts in the book!
The Land Of Stories is a fantastic book, though it is a quite lengthy, it's worth the read. I binged the whole thing in a week, and I don't usually like books like these. I just LOVE IT!
The first book is amazing! It has so many twists and turns that you might not have expected. In LOVE the characters. Alex is smart and intelligent, Conner is funny and popular.
100% recommended! This is one of the best series I've ever read, it's been my favorite for 3 years now. I could reread this 1,000,000,000 times and never get tired of it
I've read all 6 and they are amazing
So hi everyone i read this book in first grade and i loved it so much that all the girls in my grade read it and we created a book club. I would def recomend for kids who love fantasy, magic, and are between the age of 7-12
The book the Land of Stories written by Chris Colfer is a very adventurous book in a fairy-tale world with two twins named Conner and Alex. Conner and Alex where no stranger to fairy tales, growing up their grandmother had a booked filled with fairy-tales. They would read together whenever they would visit. It was one of there favorite things from their childhood. Their father had passed away in a horrible car accident about a year ago and was now living in a rental house. Their mother was working constantly to try and provide for the family. She originally had time off for her kids birthday but due to low staff in the hospital she cold not. Since their mother couldn't be there on the twins birthday their grandmother came over instead. For their birthday she gave them the book they grew up reading, the land of stories. Alex was able to turn the book into a portal and her and her brother traveled to a fairy-tale world together, but how ill they get home...
This is an amazing book and has loads of cliffhangers and excitment.
i love this series! but since i read a A TALE OF MAGIC and A TALE OF WITCHCRAFT first, i was kind of disappointed since the, like, information does'nt match a tale of magic/witchcraft
