“The Enchantress Returns” is the second book of “The Land Of Stories” series. The book starts in the Eastern Kingdom where Queen Sleeping Beauty and her citizens celebrate the recovery of the sleeping curse, when the kingdom’s greatest fear, the Enchantress, returned. When I read this part of the story, I was both terrified and curious about what the Enchantress's goal was. Later on, the Enchantress kidnaps Alex and Conner’s mom, and the twins try to find a way to defeat the Enchantress. They find a thing called the Wand Of Wonderment which could make anyone holding it invincible. But, they have numerous obstacles in their way. Read on and find out if they can save their mom.

This book was okay. I thought the author did not give a lot of information on how geronimo solved his problem of overspending. The one thing I liked about it was that it was very interesting to read about and how he handled the situation.

One Christmas Eve, Dr. Julius Kane and his kids, Sadie and Carter, use the Rosetta Stone to [accidentally] unleash five gods. The kids' uncle, Amos, takes them to Brooklyn House. When the 2 kids leave Brooklyn House they will learn spells, escape demon fruit bats and fight gods! This is my favorite book because I like Egyptian Mythology!

The Mysterious Benedict Society is a mystery and adventure fiction book. The book was about 4 children on a dangerous mission to save the world. The 4 children are all orphans with many talents. Their goal is to go to a certain boarding school and find out how and why Mr. Curtain (the antagonist of the story) is planning to control people's minds. This book was a fairly long book with approximately 500 pages and it was a little hard to understand in some parts. However, if you like mystery, then this book is so much fun and interesting.

I loved the book!

I love this book because it is a funny book. This book is about ballet and I love ballet so much is another way I can exercise in a classy and calming way. Butter bear said supper high leaps are showy and pointing toes is classy. This is also my favorite ballet and only book. Butter bear stopped doing super high leaps because everyone will laugh at her underpants. At the time Butter Bear was leaping and showed the underpants, I laughed!
