Fantasy: An Artist's Realm by Ben Boss



Boss, Ben. Fantasy: An Artist's Realm, 96 pgs. Candlewick Press, 2010. $19.99. Language-G; Violence-PG; Sexual Content-G. On back cover: “Welcome to New Perigord, a fantastical land teeming with elves, dwarves, minotaurs, and hobgoblins, as well as bloodcurdling undead horrors.” The illustrations are fantastic! A reluctant reader could read this book and not even realized they were reading text! I love this book! I liked the sketched out pictures that look realistic. The creatures are interesting and cool. I liked the warriors and weapons. It might be scary for some kids. EL, Middle School. ESSENTIAL. Student Reviewer: ML- age 11.
