The Dream Stealer

Summary: Could not hold my interest
Review: I was very interested in the interpretation of Baba Yaga but it was a very slow start. This is book is not for a reluctant reader. Gregory Maguire writes very well but Lost and Dream Stealer are not his best.

Summary: Pasha and Lisette ask Baba Yaga to help destroy Blood Prince
Review: This wonderful novel written by Gregory Miguire is sure to enchant. The basic idea is for Pasha and Lisette, two village kids, to destroy the Blood Prince as it reeks havoc in nearby villages and on trains. This story is magical, but some people may not enjoy all of the dialogue. I really like the characters because you get to know the story behind them. I also think it is good that the author made it a girl and boy team. Pasha is a very brave boy ,yet he knows he can't do too much thanks to his short tempered grandfather. Lisette always thinks about her mother even though she has to be the one in her house who cooks,cleans, and takes care of her baby brother while her father does his best to earn money for his family. I really enjoyed the story. I know if you read it you'll like it too.
