A Fantastic Story

Today, at school, I did my oral book report in front of my class, and the book I chose for the report was "Corranda's Crown"! I really liked the story very much. Your book is more better than Harry Potter series!

Amazing and Exciting

I am amazed by your book Corranda'a Crown. I'm on the last chapter but so far your book is amazing. I just can't believe how much detail you put into it. Out of my life there was some pretty amazing books. But this book is just amazing! It's just that I wish to know how you made it so real and exiting, you made me feel like I was really there. (...)

A blissfully enchanting 'must read' for all...

The imaginative artwork and tale told in Corranda's Crown instantly returned me to a place in my youth. A time when 9 to 5 was not remotely a part of my world. When climbing trees and scraping knees were the only things I got up early or paid attention to the time for. When the most important things on my 'to-do list' were to spy on the animals that inhabited the forest near my grandmother's house. Waiting for them to quiet so that I might find the faeires who lived under wild mushrooms and warn them of the peskie goblins who always followed me on my treks.Fodi's impeccable writing not only enabled me to re-visit my childhood adventures, it reminded me of the beauty of nature and all things honest and kind and pure. A definate 'must read' for any one longing for a captivating, imaginative, and good-natured get-a-way. For the young, old, and somewhere in-between.

Enchanting! Masterfully written & strikingly illustrated.

Copyright © 2002 Diana GuerreroFounder/Facilitator Alliance of WritersReviewer Book & Bean BookstoreFrom the time I glimpsed that blue starred cap, I knew I couldn’t escape the magic. The wizard cast his spell and caught me. Lee Fõdi will capture you too with his fabulous fairytale, Corranda’s Crown. The spell of enchantment of Corranda’s Crown was cast upon me from the moment I glimpsed the cover. This book is masterfully written and strikingly illustrated. It drew me in and kept me captive until I had read it from cover to cover. Young or old will delight in this fairy tale set in the mythical kingdom of Kendar. The infant princess Corranda is just barely whisked away from the grasp of the evil sorceress Odjin. As Corranda grows into a young woman, her inner beauty and fortitude keep her safe on a journey filled with risks in the quest to save her dear "Uncle," Rollick the Dwarf. Able to communicate with animals, Corranda is assisted by her animal friends, Orufoo the fox (whose jokes make everyone groan), Kapoora the otter, Shutakee the crow, and others. Corranda faces many challenges, climaxing in a direct confrontation with the evil sorceress. Fõdi’s charming tale is sure to capture the same audience that has delighted in JRR Tolkein and JK Rowling. If you are looking for a good read that is fun and imparts some good lessons including those about kindness, and the magic of nature, then look no further. Buy it today!
