This trilogy of books by the inimitable Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell, master world builders, are among the first reviews I posted when I began this blog in August of 2008. Besides the fact that I adore these books and think of them often, I am thrilled to call them to your attention (again) because these books recently served as a bridge between the chapter books and graphic novels my 8 year
You recommended these to me in a comment--thanks! They are great fun!
Excellent! Glad you liked them. I wish they would write more. I was just checking into that yesterday and there are no new Far-Flung Adventures on the horizon... I wish they'd come out in paperback, too!
Wonderfully delightful! I also recommend Mr. Riddel's Ottoline series. Imagine Eloise's older but much nicer and interesting sister!
Yes! Chris Riddell's Ottoline books are fabulous. I reviewed the first one and have not had a chance to read "Ottoline Goes to School" yet. He is a remarkable illustrator and author. I bought my copy of Neil Gaiman's "Graveyard Book" from amazon.uk just so I could have an edition with Riddell's art work. I love your description of Ottoline as Eloise's
Nice to see these popping up here again. They've become part of that rare group of books that we return to over and over, at least Corby Flood and Fergus Crane -- so well done.
Hooray! That's so great to know. It was a treat for me to return to these books with my youngest. Now I have to find a new batch of little kids to share them with.
