Great characters

This is one of the best newer fantasies I have read, and I can't wait to get the rest of the series. The characters were realistic: both the kids and adults, and the suspense was intense! I want to be able to see through the eyes of an animal too! It left a lot of questions at the end, like, which of the adults, if any, can be trusted? This book's a definite keeper.

This Book ROCKS!!!!

This book is better than any other book ive read including Harry Potter, I stayed up past my bedtime reading it and the second i finished this one i started to read the second book in the series(The Door in the Tree).These books beckon you and persuade you to keep on reading till the end (unfortunatelyonly two books in the quartet are finished so far). It is not true(duh!) but it is more exciting than any book in the world.

The Steps Up The Chimney

The steps up the chimney is a great book and no book about magic even comes close, that includes Harry Potter. The book is very gripping and the Alice/Pheobe storyline is a great way to show the tension in the household. Little Alice is pushed asside as no one believes her story of spot. From there on in the story begins to unravel and the majician sufaces.
