O que vos posso dizer deste livro ?

Adorei da primeira à última página, mas em momento nenhum achei que fosse considerado "infanto-juvenil" (5-13) como a classificação em que se encontra.

Talvez 10+ pudesse ser uma idade recomendada para a maturidade da história, que apesar de acabar bem, como era de esperar, está repleta de crime, violência, vilões, tortura, luto, entre outras temáticas mais pesadas. Mas como não tenho filhos, o que sei eu? Talvez as crianças interpretem a mensagem do livro de uma forma mais ligeira, sem se focar propriamente nestes temas que são mais pesados, mas sim na coragem dos irmãos e na magia que existe neste mundo.

Uma leitura muito rápida, leve, divertida e que aquece o coração, tal como eu queria e esperava.

Repleto de mensagens fortes e lições, este livro é simplesmente maravilhoso.

As ilustrações também estão fantásticas, tornando-o ainda mais especial.

Na última página, descobrimos que haverá um segundo livro, o que me agradou imenso, pois adorei a Rachel e o Robert.

Esta história é inspirada na família do escritor, nomeadamente uma tia-avó e tio-avô, que conseguiram fugir nos Nazis, na Alemanha.


Quero agradecer também à leya, por me ter permitido conhecer o mundo de Krasnia e estas duas crianças especiais.

this book was not at all what i expected- i expected a lighthearted adventure story- and i got this dark thing of literature- not saying that it wasn’t well written! It is very well written. but way to serious for a childrens book  for my taste. Quite unsettling

Ich fand Buch 2 (das ist Teil 2 des Buches) spannender und besser als Buch 1, irgendwie.

What a fabulous, heartwarming, adventurous book. An ode to the power of words and writing and to the importance of free thinking and not being swept away by a charismatic speaker.

The Book starts in the middle, hops back to the start and runs for a while, then splits into two timelines. I was never confused about what was going on or who anyone was, and that's a feat for me - I often run characters together or forget who's who, but that never happened during this read. I was enthralled, reading as quickly as I possibly could to find out what would happen.

My proof had only some of the illustrations, but I've seen the finished copies and they're amazing (and watch out if you have an independant bookstore near you, as some of them will have an amazing extra special offer soon!) The decorations around the poems are amazing, and I love the full page illustrations scattered through the story.

I can't wait to read more in this amazing series. I'm sure it'll be just as good. (And hopefully make me cry less.)
