A Journey Through Nine Worlds in Nine Nights
Written by Hiawyn Oram, Illustrated by David Wyatt
This is a story of a person who was stuck in a rut – and then by chance their brother gives them a magical book and a journey begins. They travel to nine different worlds. The places are familiar – taken from different cultures and stories. It reminded me of Gulliver’s Travels (one land is taken from that story.) The illustrations are beautiful and detailed – so stunning! The story is interesting and the main characters show growth as they realize the power of creativity. The font is a little small, despite the size of the book. Other than that, the book is very enjoyable and recommended for those who want to spark their imagination.
