![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Praise for Ever: “Levine’s (Ella Enchanted) original mythological tale works as romance, adventure and exploration of faith. Praise for Ever: “The power of love and courage to overcome seemingly impossible odds and to bridge ostensibly untraversable differences are at the heart of this compelling, intensely satisfying fantasy.” (School Library Journal (starred review)) Readers should enjoy watching Elodie hone her powers of deduction to unravel the mystery of the ogre’s sudden disappearance, and will likely anticipate further sleuthing adventures with this companionable duo.” (Publishers Weekly) “With a faint echo of Puss in Boots, crafts a persuasive fantasy realm and a capable heroine. “Levine’s strength lies in her transparent language and the candid, uncomplicated voice of her narrator, who brings younger readers along with her as she questions assumptions, grows in friendship, works out the mystery, and makes brave escapes.” (The Horn Book) “Readers are certain to be pulled, like Elodie herself, right into the midst of the rich and swirling life of Two Castles.” (School Library Journal) Newbery Honor-winner Levine has once again breathed new life into old stories.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred review)) The plot is winningly unpredictable, the characters easy to relate to, the humor subtle and the action well-paced. “A thoroughly delicious romp from the author of Ella Enchanted. ![]()
