Awesome books to inspire young readers.
One More Chapter!
Great books for parents to read with their children.
I thought this book was amazing! The best book ever! I want to read more. Sadly there are only four books in the series. You should read this book if you like adventures, warriors and wizards. And if you like Harry Potter, you'd like this book. My favourite character is Bodkin because he puts on 7 suits of armour because he thinks everything is too dangerous.

Very Interesting
I thought this book was very interesting because lots and lots of things were going on .The book is about a warrior princess working with a wizard but there is a problem, wizards and warriors shouldn't be friends. The warrior princess has a best friend but not the sort people might have, no her best friend is a magic spoon and they go everywhere together .The pair try and see if there are actually witches but there wasn't really.
