Genre: Fantasy and magic, Action and adventure, and a Really good children's book.
Rating: 10/5 stars.
Leo's review: The main character is a girl named Penelope, who wants to be a writer, but her mother schedules EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF HER LIFE!
Penelope finally finds an empty day in her schedule, and falls into it. Now, she is in the the Realm of Possibility. They have a big problem: Chronos. He has built a city, and is destroying the Realm of Possibility to make his city. AND he's turning people into Clockworkers, people who move in time to his clocks.
Also, the Great Moodler has gone missing. She is an amazing person, who brought peace and prosperity to the Realm of Possibility. She was a very gifted problem solver, because she moodled, or came up with, amazing ideas, which are very delicious.
One of my favorite characters is Dill. Dill is an unusually tall man, with bright red hair. He loves mushrooms, and he is trying to find the Great Moodler.
If you haven't read the book, you TOTALLY SHOULD READ IT! It is completely AWESOME!
Sage's comment-- It is a very good book, even for older readers. I read it, and I really enjoyed it. It has wonderful illustrations, and great characters. If you like the book, The Phantom Toolbooth, you should read this book. It is much more enjoyable, and I like the way it deals with time.
Great quote: "The time you can spend is the time you have right now. And the time that you have right now is all the time in the world.Time isn't precious, Penelope. You are. As long as you remember that, you're sure to use it wisely."
Side note: I don't think that any of you are as heavily scheduled as Penelope, so no insulting your parents that way.
