Some of the dialogue is a bit slow, or repetitive and sometimes awkward. I also thought the romance between one of the girls and a boy she meets from 800 years in the past could have been left out. It didn’t really add anything to the main plot of the story and, since the 2 characters really knew nothing about each other, it was based purely on a physical attraction.

The story is very easy to follow and is designed for kids in the age group you are talking about. Duni – I think this would be an excellent book for those who have English as a second language.

I don't prescreen my daughter's books, mainly because we don't like the same types of stories. I do tend to read some of her books because that's what we have around here!

I always have difficulty recommending books, because either they're too childlike or the sentence structure is too difficult! Hi Lynne,
do you think this book is suitable for German students aged 16 – 18 who have about 5 years’ worth of English as a foreign language?
