Books

I love books, so here are a few that I'd like to remember for later.

The Thieves of Ostia: Roman Mysteries #1
I've been reading this children's series about 4 children in ancient Rome. The series has surprisingly depth of character and illustrates Roman times very well.

The Marvelous Misadventures of Sebastian
Reminiscent of The Whipping Boy, this rollicking adventure would be a great read aloud for all ages. Suspenseful and funny.

The Princess and the Unicorn by
In modern times, fairies still live in the woods, each guarded by a unicorn. When the unicorn leaves the forest, it begins to die. The princess finds the unicorn and takes it away, and a young fairy must rescue the unicorn and her beloved forest. Cute.

The Silver Bowl by
The royal family is cursed, and only the little girl who polishes the silver knows why. Can she conquer the curses before the royal family is dead?

Dragon's Milk, Sign of the Dove, Flight of the Dragon Kyn, Ancient Strange and Lovely by
4 tales chronicling the demise of the dragons from this world. One is set in a post apocalyptic future, where they discover that dragons are the key to restoring the earth.

Yesterday's Doll (or The Doll) by Cora Taylor
I read this book when I was very young. A young girl is sick and must recover at her grandmother's house. Her grandmother gives her a special doll. Every time she falls asleep, she is whisked back in time to a pioneer era. Will her actions change the past?
