Readers' Favorite Book Reviews
Action packed with battles, legends, and myths, this book is another spectacular story by Wendy Leighton-Porter. The reader won't be able to put this book down from page one. Digging deep into English history, myths, and legends, The Shadows From The Past Series is more than just a great succession of exciting stories; they are super educational! I love that the author challenges young readers to think beyond what they see, what they are told, encouraging them to research history, myths, and legends. For myself, it is refreshing to read history that hasn't been barely scratched over or watered down. I would recommend this book - along with all the Shadows From The Past books - for children ages 7-10, though the author's unique and descriptive writing style entertains adults as well as children.
