![]() ![]() The whole novel is a precious gem in these time where there are so many copycat novels that add nothing new to the reader's experience. Book enhanced with curriculum aligned questions and activities. ![]() The chapters of the prison are incredible. Read The Red Necklace by Gardner, Sally, lexile & reading level:, (ISBN: 9781440637940). It might look like a children's book at the beginning but the Revolution changes that, the magic is intertwined in all the pages but the way the author depicts the revolution is realistic, there are good guys, ultimate evil and a lot of grey as well in the plot, with people fighting for survival in the time when the Terror started in France. ![]() Sido and Yann are characters you get to love, you want to know what happens next for them. So I bought the second part, The Silver Blade as soon as I finished this one. I just thought it might be interesting, a nice little book to read, but it was actually a positive surprise, it is well-written, fast, interesting, the characters are alive in the pages full of adventures and historical references that, instead of becoming an annoying History lesson, are actualling intriguing, I found myself enjoying the book more and more. I was looking for another book here in Amazon and I saw this novel recommended based on my search and I decided to give it a try, although it was catalogued as children fiction. ![]()
