Guest Junior Reviewer: The Land of Stories: Beyond The Kingdoms Book 4

KBR welcomes your thoughts on the books you read and wish to share. This guest review is provided by a young student with a passion for adventure tales, Ishi Kawar, aged 10. Here's Ishi's review.

The Land of Stories Beyond The Kingdoms (Book 4) by Chris Colfer is definitely going to blow your mind with adventure-packed and a bit of comedy, Alex and Conner set out on a journey to save the fairy-tale world!

In the book the twins Alex and Conner Bailey find out they have an evil uncle who is trying to form an army by going into books and recruiting the villain's armies. 

He wants the fairy tale world so he can rule but Alex and Conner Bailey need to put a stop to that. Alex and Conner go through the stories using a potion called the portal potion. They follow their evil uncle and put a stop to his nasty plan.

Alex and Conner have one lifetime of an adventure travelling from book to book with their friends. There is trouble along the way but Alex and Conner always have each others’ backs. The twins face challenges along the way but there up for it. 

Saving the fairy tale world is the most important thing the twins have to do, but is their courage enough to save the fairy tale world and defeat all of the literary army and most amazing villains of all time?
