LaFevers does a wonderful job at maintaining Theodosia's colorful and refreshing character, while Tanaka's illustrations support the break-neck pace of the story. Readers will definitely be staying up through the night as they follow Theodosia through the dark, dank London alleyways with mummies trailing behind her. But aside from the addictive adventure, spunky heroine, and spooky premise, this book is a great way to show children the importance of doing research in finding answers to any problem. Fans of Harry Potter, Red Pyramid, or Fablehaven will thoroughly enjoy the Theodosia Throckmorten series.
From my years as a book reviewer for Children's Book and Media Review, I know it's tricky to navigate the reading world to find "safe harbors" for our imaginations. So I have created this blog to guide young readers to wholesome literature and to highlight the authors who create it. I hope you enjoy the literary destinations ahead!
