Shh...Can you hear the Whispers?

For over a thousand years, the Box of Whispers has guarded the most precious treasure in the Land of Een...this is the tantalizing line that opens the copy on the back of this book, promising all sorts of adventure. Well, this book delivers! It simply bursts with memorable characters, like grumpy old Uncle Griffinskitch, sharp-tongued Captain Jinx, and brave little Kendra herself, armed with her handful of enchanted carrot seeds. This book is simply filled with charm, and its whimsy and bold and inviting illustrations remind me of the Oz books I read as a child. I'm so pleased with this story--and I think you will be too!

Fantastic characters are in this book

My favourite character is Uncle Griffinskitch because he seems so mysterious and smart. I really like the way the Troooguls look because they are ugly, but fascinating. I think Captain Jinx is really creative because you would never think a grasshopper would be tough and strong, but she is.

This book is great

I really enjoyed your book, Kendra Kandlestar and The Box of Whispers. I read it 3 times already!

You're #1 fan

Dear Mr. Fodi, I have just finished reading your book Kendra Kandlestar and the Box of Whispers.  What gave you the idea in the first place to create the tiny little simple world unseen by any living critters but the Eens themselves along with animals such as a raccoon, or a rabbit? I'm wondering if you're creating a story right now because your stories are terrific, amazing and heroic?
