Great enjoyable series for young readers

8yr old girl couldn’t put these book down! The book gobbler that she is, these books were such a hit with her!! She finished them in a matter of a month! Even though he would not get much time in the day to read, she would pick it up whenever possible. Now the problem is she compares every new book to this collection and wants it up to this standard!!

Fabulous

My daughter is 10 years old and received these array of stories and on book #2 in such a short time and the stories are so outstanding that she hasn’t had a single day one of books aren’t with her

The first book was great - the others, not so much.

The first book was utterly amazing, and the second book was also great, but things started to go downhill after that. Sure, there were a few interesting parts in the third, fourth, and sixth books, but I didn't like them as much as the first two. The fifth was like the first and second - it was very interesting.

Wonderful storylines, but promotes very liberal ideas.

I began reading these books with my daughter because the storylines sounded like a fun twist on the classic fairy tales. The first book was fantastic. We were excited to begin reading the second. We became engrossed in the characters and wanted to know what would happen next. We have continued to read all six books to find what happened to the characters, but I began to see the typical liberal ideas being pushed into these children's books. By the final book, the author had included gay and lesbian characters, along with questionable language. I realize that the author himself identifies with this group, but not all families do. I wish that children's authors would keep their personal gender, political, and any other ideology out of children's books. Childhood is short enough and children should be spared this type of rhetoric for as long as possible. We should give them a chance to form some of their own opinions on life before we start trying to push our agendas on them. By the end, I was highly disappointed in the series. What could have been a set of books that I would have gladly bought for all of my nieces and friends' children, I will now throw away.

enthralling

My 11 year old got this set for his birthday and ready the entire series in two weeks- he could not put the books down. Other books he has loved: spy school series, HP, His Dark Materials, Gregor the Overlander, and Hunger Games.

My son loved these books

My son enjoyed reading these so much. Every day he would recap all he read to me. A great spin on the classic tales.

Reading time with grand babies

Got the series as my g-baby & I have reading time via FaceTime each night. We take turns being either the Narrator or characters. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Priceless

Extremely thought provoking and inspiring!

Read to 5 and 8 year old girl! Had great difficulty telling them it could not be read at one sitting. Each book was read over two days! Had to rephrase at times and insert different vocabulary! Intriguing reading!

Great first read

My 7 year old found the first book in the school library. She really like it so we bought the complete set. Good books

Pretty good

I bought it for kids birthday gift.He really like it.

I bought it for kids birthday gift.He really like it.

Chris Colfer knows how to turn any Disney book into a better fairytale!

I love The Land of Stories books that show us that fairytales are real and we can live in their world. The people there are different than us and they can turn out to be the real villains but at times they can do the right thing and help us.

My daughter who never reads, won't put them down

I normally have to beg, plead, and bribe one of my daughters to read. This series has changed that. There are times we have to force her to put down her book! Definitely a favorite in this house.

Good

Kids love it.

Our favorite summer reads

My two oldest kids love this series and have read all of the books countless times this summer. Great for a wide range of ages. I haven’t read them yet but my 15 year old says they would be entertaining for adults as well so I would say ages 8+. It’s nice to hear kids who are far apart in age and don’t have many shared interests anymore coming together and laughing about their favorite parts of the books.

Amazing stories

I could not wait to get to the next book. I read them all through our public library, but was wanting to get our 13 year old granddaughter hooked on them. After some resistance, she and her mom are now reading them together before bedtime. I think Chris is a terrific author. Loved him in Glee and am also loving this new and very creative side of him

Enjoy as a kid or adult - GREAT read

We have been reading these books to our 8-year old twins and I'm not sure who enjoys them more. The kids love the new stories and adventures with their familiar characters (princesses, pirates, Jack & the beanstalk) and my husband and I have really enjoyed the extra layer of humor that goes over their heads (Mother Goose carries around a large bottle of her favorite "juice" and the more inebriated she becomes the more she speaks in rhymes.). If you're looking for something before/after Harry Potter check these out. We enjoyed them so much we purchased a set for each of our kids' classrooms.

Very well written.

Great series! Could not put it down. Excellent for higher level readers or 5th grade and up.

Perfect

My Grand Daughter Loves these books, She has read them 3 times

Move over disney.... just a little bit though lol

Seriously, these books are amazing and will rock your world. I'm almost 30 and work at a dental lab where I listen to podcasts, music and often books on audible. When I happened upon this series it was a godsend and I couldn't listen to them quick enough. If you allow them to these books can reignite the creative inside you who used to love getting lost in a story. Colfer does amazing work and you truly find yourself latching onto these characters. The audible versions were so thoroughly enjoyable I decided to buy this gift set so my son and I could enjoy them together. Just do it. It's totally worth it and these are the types of stories you want in your collection.

Buy it. Don't second guess it.

I'm 38 and bought these on a whim. Theyre amazing. Absolutely amazing. The characters we all know are brilliantly intertwined. Clean language, full of wit, charm, and magic. I can't wait for my 9 year old daughter to read them!

Fabulous story-telling!

These are the best books my son and I have read together. They are super engaging and so funny to read. We have finished reading the whole series which took us about 9 months. Would highly recommend!!

All the kids love them

I ordered these books for my son, but my 2 daughters have both read the entire series! From ages 12-15, these books are engaging and loved.

She loves them.

My 9yo daughter is obsessed with these books. She can't stop talking about them.

Love

My 4th grader loves this series! Great reading!!!

Good Read

Fantastic read for young adults and adults

Love these books!

Wonderful series! My son loves these books and reads at least a couple hours per day.

Great quality and read!

It came in great condition and was a super fun read! I never wanted to put the book down! Definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a super fun read!

Wonderful

Wonderful series. Bought it for my son since he wanted to move on to a book series. He loves it. Very entertaining and allows for full immersion into the story. Finding out Chris colfer was the author lit up my son's eyes. He's a huge fan.

8 year old loves this series!!

My 8 year old daughter absolutely loves this series. Her teacher recommended it to her and after reading one she begged grandma to buy the entire series. Grandma obliged, as usual.

Great series!

My daughter is 14 and an avid reader. Easy read and engaging content.

Great books for kids

My son loves these books he just couldn't put them down lots of adventure and imagination

We found the one!

I had a hard time finding a book series that my 11 yrs old daughter would like. This was it! I use to have a hard time getting her to read a book. To see her reading all on her own is so awesome. She says she can't put the book down.

A perfect fantasy series for kids who love to read!

My daughter is love with it after Harry Potter series.

Wonderful children's books

This set of books takes me back to my youth when I used to read Nancy Drew and the Hardy boys. The interweaving of the stories from our youth are both amazing and intriguing. My grandson loves these books.

Daughter Loved

Good buy

Great Books!!

This honestly is a very good series. Children in third grade are generally the ones who start asking to read this book. But all the way up to junior high enjoy reading these books also. I don't have any older students so I'm not sure if high school kids read them also. These are also higher AR points. You have to actually pay attention when you read these books.

Excitement

The product arrived on time as a lovely set. My child was so excited.

Great read!

I absolutely love this series. It's brilliantly written. My 8 year old grandson turned me on to the first book in the series and I ended up reading the entire series. It gave me a whole new perspective on the stories and fairytales I grew up with. Chris Colfer is a wonderful writer. I plan to read all his books. It was a great read.

Love this series!

If you like fairy tales, you will love this series. And I am a senior citizen! Love Chris' imagination!

Interesting

Bought as a birthday gift. Will gift it in a few days

Your independent reader will love these

My 8yo (high level reader, not for your average 8yo) devoured these books. She giggled her way through the entire series in about a week, and keeps telling me I need to read them for myself.

Great series for encouraging your child to read

My 8 year old daughter loves this series. She is always looking for a new series and this was a perfect addition to our library. The series comes in a nice box for display and reasonably priced in comparison to buying the books individually as after reading the first one you will want to be able to start the next right away.

so good

the books in prefect condescend defiantly recommended

Two Thumbs Up!

11 year old daughter is OBSESSED with reading this series. She doesn’t want to put the books down to go to sleep. She says she enjoys the author’s use of classic characters and places. Perfect with kids that are a little advanced in reading level but are finding it difficult to find reading material appropriate for their age that enjoy fantasy.

Once they started, they could not put the books down.

My kids could not put their books down. An amazing series!

Great book

My son really enjoyed them. Great books

Arrived quickly, in perfect condition.

For myself.

A happy reader!

I bought this for my 6th grade son who doesn’t particularly like to read. He’s reading without being told to read because the storyline is so engaging.

My kid and I enjoy it.

My 8 year old son was introduced to the first book in this series by his teacher at school and really enjoyed it. He came home requesting me to buy the rest of the series. He is reading the second book now and still loves it. I myself started to read one of the books to see what it's about and enjoyed it so much that I am planning to read the rest.

Great series

My daughter loves this series. It's playful, fun and had a ton of positive female role models. While at times the writing is mediocre, Colfer had created a wonderful imaginary world.

Perfect gift

Gave to my granddaughter for Christmas. She loved the set and immediately opened and started to read one of the books.

Keeps Kid Reading!

My daughter loves this series! She had started one of these books at school, and came home excited about it. If she is excited about reading, I am happy. We got her the series to keep her reading. Always a win when she would rather read a book than stare at screen!

Great

Daughter loves the series so far!

Big winner

My 8 year old loved these. She said they are her new favorite and enjoyed them even more than Wings of Fire. She’s hoping for more.

great books

the only downside to these amazing stories is that there is some objectionable words but that's nothing a pen cant fix. i enjoyed these books so greatly that it took me less than a moth to read them. now the rest of my 6 siblings enjoy them to as my mother reads them to us . (with a pen)

Excellent Series

Such fun books! My son and I both read and enjoyed a lot. Anyone who enjoys fantasy would like them. It’s fun with all of the fairy tale characters you know and love.

My children love these stories!

My children love these stories! We read the first two and decided we needed to buy the whole set. We highly recommend.

Amazing books for 10 years old

My 10 years old daughter loves these books so much. It was Christmas gift to her. She has read whole series more than 6 times from December. She keeps thanking me for buying these. I would definitely recommend it for 10 years old.

Granddaughter LOVES them

My granddaughter loves these books! She said she reads them over and over!

Great stories

Wonderful stories for young teens and younger. Very imaginative fun plots that need to be worked out with clues. Based on fairy tales

These Stories are Great for Teen Girls

My daughter loves these books!!! Read 2 books in less than 3 weeks and couldn’t wait to read the ne t

Love the story, but missing chapters in the book!

My 11yo daughter was given this set for Christmas 2019 and loves the books. Unfortunately, book 2 in this set had two copies of chapter 7 and was missing chapters 9 and 10. The books were supposed to be new and appeared that way upon opening, but I didn't realize I needed to check for all of the chapters to be printed in each book of the series. Very disappointing. Had to buy yet another copy of the book for my daughter to finish the story and am very disappointed in the publishing company.

Good book set

Bought this for my 10 year old who loved this set. All the books came in good packaging and in excellent condition. This is a favorite. Recommended.

Such a great series!

My 8 year old happened to come across the first book and has not been able to put any of them down! she has asked for his other book for Christmas. She is such a reader I am glad we came across this series.

7 year old son loves them

My 7 year old son loves the whole series .He just couldn’t stop reading it.It took him 2 days to read a book.It worths every penny that I spent.

This is a great set of books!

I am a teacher and bought these books for my classroom. They came in great condition and were definitely worth the price.

My 11yo daughter ate these up.

My 11 year old finished this series in record time. Highly recommend for anyone that has voracious young readers in their home.

Great purchase!

Great purchase! Arrived quickly. My child is very excited to be reading this series.

Excellent for middle readers

Bought this collection for my classroom. Student love the series and are happy that I have the complete set for them to read. Arrived in perfect condition and the box it comes with keeps the books organized.

8 year old is obsessed!

My 8 year old daughter loves this series!!! I wasn’t sure if she’d enjoy it since she is a comedy reader but she is hooked!

Great Book Series!

My grandchildren and I are reading this set together. They love to discuss what may come next, how the children might get out of a certain situation, so it is good for the imagination too. We are loving reading it together.

Interesting read for youth

I got the first book for my 5th grader, and bought the box set for her to read over the summer. She really enjoyed it and the set was a better price than ordering the other 4 books alone.

Great books!

Absolutely wonderful set of books. My daughter is very excited and even offered to let me read them when she was done! Lol

Captivating series

My son borrowed the first book in the series and was hooked. Ordered the set and he’s reading 200 pages a day. This series has replaced his craving for electronics during his free time.

Captures the imagination

My 10 year old son read the entire series in a few weeks and is now bummed he cant find anything else he thinks is as good.

Fastest service ever

I read each book and love them

amazing

my daughter read "tale of magic" before this collection she is in 4th grade and LOVES this book set! great price and came sooner then expected

Just what I needed!

Great job! Got all the books in 1 shipment, arrived quickly and in good shape. Price was reasonable. We need more book resellers like this to help the environment!

My 4th granddaughter loves them.

Great series

My daughter loves this series and has read them several times from the library so I decided to buy them, she's reading all the books again!

Great series for a great price

Great price for a great series. My son loved it and loves owning it for future rereads.

My daughter couldn’t put these down

From my (almost) nine year old: terrific adventures! I love these stories!

Super fast delivery

Very good quality my daughter loved it. Paperback books, good price, good conditions, expected on the 28 and they arrived on the18th so that was awesome because I order them late for my daughter's birthday and I expected not to receive them early but to my surprise they arrived early.

Amazingly Creative Series

Kids can’t get enough! The stories are amazingly creative and full of adventure! Great for readers of all ages from 4th grade-adulthood!

Es perfecto, a mi niño le encanta estos libros 📚 💕

Si a mi hijo le agrado mucho.

The Land of Stories set

great read, good deal

Great value

My 9 year old son loved this series and has reread them several times!

Liberal ideas…

Please keep your liberal ideas out of my kids head… I wish there was a requirement to divulge your agenda with books and movies. You don’t need gays and lesbians in a children’s book. Buyer beware.

Great Series

My 10 year old has diven deep in the series and loves it!

Good Read!

I love it alot! Thank you so much♥️♥️

Bad quality of the book set - story content is excellent!

This review is not for the actual storyline, which my daughter has enjoyed tremendously, but for the quality of your set. The second book (book 2), came with faulty print that is missing 20 or so pages! My daughter ended up getting this book from her school library to read the missing pages. We would like to have a new copy of this book to have a proper set.
