Book reviews

Has anyone here read: brainboy and the deathmaster? It's a children's book, and I'm thinking about picking up for inspiration
(planning on witting a children's book). I've been told it's a good read but I'd feel better if you guys tell me what you think about it first.

I haven't read the OP's book either, but googling it does get some reviews if he's set on finding some.  I seriously doubt anyone here has read it.

As for children's books, depending on the age range, I always liked stuff by Roald Dahl or Rudyard Kipling.  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is good too.  I remember enjoying the Wrinkle of Time books as a kid.

The Narnia books are good examples too, despite all of the criticism against them (for the record, I'm a hardline atheist).
