Add a CommentThis series is my ABSOLUTE favorite!! I love the suspense and the dramatic endings, and I 100% recommend it. It is just right for late primary students and early high schoolers. I can't stop putting it down! Five stars from me!
IIvy this book 11/
Amazing Book! Once you start reading you can’t stop!
This was incredible! It had nursery rhymes I had forgotten about! And the classic story's were great too! P.S. This is a really heavy and thick book so be warned!
The Snow Queen was great. I didn't think it would be this good. After reading the Land of Stories series, I was pretty confused with what the Snow Queen's story was. I really liked Gerda and I think Colfer is great at creating characters even in short stories.
I rate the Snow Queen 68/100.
The Little Mermaid was so wonderful. I think it really expressed its moral the most because it at the end, The Little Mermaid disintegrated into foam. I feel like tragedy is the best method of teaching a lesson.
I rate this 82/100.
The series of land of stories is the best series. This book was the thickest and most amazing book I read! I want to read all of the 6 books. I give it five stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
After I read the 4th one I immediatly went online and ordered the 5th & 6th ones!
Before I read The land of stories I thought it was going to be boring but it was actually really really exciting!
This was a great book. I do think that the land of stories book 1 was better though.
this book is so captivating! It gets more and more exciting the more you read. I rate this a 5\5
