The book is divided into 24 chapters, and is in my issue with each chapter beginning a small black and white drawing. There are three different editions of this book. I took the more favorable of the two hardcover. I've seen that in front of the other output
a map of the country is. This but you can also easily downloaded from the internet and thus follow the journey of the twins. Here: Click
The writing style is simple and without Verschnörkelung. You can tell that the author a) when he started to write the book was still quite young (how well it noted, for example, the first volume of "Eragon") and b) that this book was written basically for the younger generation. But that should not be a negative criticism, I want to take just so all those fears of the "English", because it really is simply written.
My Opinion:
A beautiful book full of great ideas and lovable characters!
In this novel, makes use of well-known author of fairy-tale characters, but one learns from a completely different side. I liked most about this book. The idea of what happens when the story is read. As it goes with the figures continue? Are the bad guys really only evil
and the good ones will really only good? And how can all fairytale queens always marry Prince Charming ?! ;)
These and many other questions are answered.
But this book is also about friendship, family and morality - as is also the case with real fairy tale. And full of surprises for the reader willing!
Mich could take you into the wonderful world of fairy tales this book immediately and I was caught by the charm of this book. It's just something that I have never read so. A well thought-fantasy story with a touch of good humor, which is just magical.
An absolute highlight of this year !!!!
Chris Colfer just screams on a sequel (which I can not wait) and reported via Twitter that "The Land of Stories - The Wishing Spell" is translated into several languages. And I go just assume that this is "German".
On the above website, there is a small excerpt and an audition, read by the author himself. I can only recommend !!!
I can only to impress upon your heart, if you leave you enchanted and want to leave everyday life behind you, then read this book !!! It's just indescribably wonderful !!!
