Friday Finds

We are starting a new weekly post -- every Friday -- where we highlight interesting books we've stumbled upon online, or read about or heard about in the aisles of the local bookstore. Chances are we've also already submitted an Amazon order.

Below is the first list, called Friday Finds. Wishing you all a great weekend with lots of time spent cradling a book on the couch!

Friday Finds

1) The Lost Years of Merlin by T.A. Barron (a series)
We read King Arthur together about a year ago and really enjoyed it. Thinking this will be a good series for the kids to read on their own.

2) The Fairy Godmother Academy by Joan Bozarth
We've just about tapped the fairy market out. Fairy godmothers seem like extended fairy family.

3) Back in Time series by Dan Guttman
This series looks like biography meets the A to Z Mysteries series

4) Children of the Lamp by P.B. Kerr
Ella brought one of these home from the school library. After reading reviews seems like The-Magic-Treehouse-meets-The-39-Clues.  I think we are going to like this series.

5) Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry
Who can pass up the chance to keep the Peter Pan story alive?
