Weigh Up Regarding Books Fortune's Magic Farm

Good story line. Well done. Would keep elementary interest. Very funny in parts. Lots of discussion could come from this book.

This book was a little depressing at times but I loved it. Selfors does a great job of building a world in which children and adults alike have to think and imagine it in their head. Everything is so vivid I was forming pictures of everything. Although I wasn't a fan of most of the characters, I think the language is what pulled me into this book and kept me reading. Good writing can sometimes trump characters that I don't like so much :)

A sweet, well-written tale about a little orphan girl who lives in Runny Cove, where it rains 24/7 and life is miserable, made so not only by the weather, but also the umbrella factory owner and the appalling boardinghouse landladies. But on the day that a strange sea creature dumps a big red apple in her lap, hope dawns, and Isabelle finds the courage to escape from her horrendous existence. An enjoyable eco-fantasy that kids will find interesting.

This was a 4.5 / 5 star read for me. Super cute with lots of heart and whimsy.

Roald Dahl was a troublemaker. Did he really have to be so original? So interesting? Did his books have to fall into such a distinctive age range? And did he have to be the kind of author that would inspire parents to come up to reference desks across the country asking desperately, "My kid only reads Roald Dahl. What do you have that's just like him?" Honey, you are barking up the wrong tree if you think that anyone could replicate Dahl's style. He was one of those rare authors to tread the

Fortune's Magic Farm... a delightful sensory journey for an orphaned girl living in a group home, hoping to discover where she came from. Scenery is described with such vivid detail, it is easy to feel how the characters feel and see what they see in the drab and cloudy Runny Cove. It unfortunately felt that Isabelle, the orphaned girl, took a back seat ride the entire story, and didn't fully participate in the adventure. She sat back in awe of her surroundings, but never initiated action.

It's so hard for me to try and enjoy this book, I just want to bash Mama Lu's face into the wall!
