12-year-old David mourns his dead mother, resents his new stepmother and baby half-brother, and suddenly finds that books have begun whispering to him. One night he journeys to a strange land, a land of fairy tales and dreams. But these aren't your modern, Disney-fied fairy tales. These are the old cautionary fables, full of monsters and violence. I spent much of the first part of this book wondering why it hadn't been made into a movie, but once David enters the other land, there is more than a little bit of disturbing, violent imagery. Even so, it's a captivating story, full of classic motifs and new characters, scary monsters and thrilling adventure. Not one I'll soon forget.
