Daily Journal 7/15/2014

My son and I were talking about a book series he likes called Fablehaven. It's about a brother and sister, Seth and Kendra, who's parents are going on a cruise that Kendra and Seth's grandparents set up for their children after they died. The kids were not invited on this cruise, so they had to go stay with their Grandpa and Grandma Sorenson. They were NOT looking forward to a long, tiring summer with their grumpy grandpa, and thought it would be a long, boring summer. When they get there, however, things aren't quite as boring and regular as they thought. The grandparents are caretakers of a wildlife reserve called Fablehaven, for mystical creatures such as Fairies, Satyrs, and Nymphs. The kids, driven by curiosity and a bit of stupidity, involve themselves in complicated things that they definitely didn't expect, such as defeating a demon that's been asleep for a very long time which was being awoken by an evil witch in the forest, who they were forced to release from her captivity by asking for too many wishes.

This sounds like a very interesting series in my opinion, and I was happy to talk with my son about it. If you like fantasy books with magic and mystical creatures, this is definitely a book you should take a look at. It's a 5 book series called "Fablehaven" and it's written by the author Brandon Mull.
