Summary: An excellent book
Review: I picked up Rairarubia browsing through a bookstore one day and after reading just a couple pages I was hooked. This is a brilliant children's novel, captivating and exciting. I can't wait to start reading the next one.

Summary: Excellent book!
Review: It started out so innocently. Molly Doogan's mother was a doctor. Due to the many cases of the flu, Molly and her dad had to wait in the car until the last patient had left the clinic so they could all go home. To kill the boredom, Molly and her father decide to make up a story. Rairarubia (Rare - A - Ruby - Uh) was ruled by an evil man called Mammoth. Young Romey had no knowledge of her past, but was taken in as a pupil by Bovert and Herman. Sam, a boy her age, was in the same situation. The two teachers train Romey and Sam in all types of fighting, weaponry, and how to live with nature. They become a team, but had no idea what was in store for them. Each night Molly and her father continue to make up the story. However, the story was somehow leaking out of Molly's imagination and into her REAL daily life! **** Here is the beginning of what promises to be a compelling series! For anyone as young as age nine to anyone over one hundred. (Come on, admit it, those of us over twenty-one still LOVE this stuff!) This author grabs onto the readers quickly and holds onto them as tight as Super Glue until the very end. Highly recommended reading! ****

Review: Rairarubia is one of those rare books that is equally loved by boys and girls. Every one of my students could relate to Molly's amazing adventure, the colorful characters, the puzzling riddles, the magic. This book is a gem, delivering its story with humor and suspense. The ending demands a sequel- now!
