LitPick Review
This book is both fantasy and adventure. Laurie, the main character of the book is anadventurous, smart, imaginative girl. She has a friend named Dickie who suddenly contracts polio and ends up in an iron lung. She goes to the hospital to visit him and is asked to tell a story. She weaves an amazing tale about Colosso, a giant, and Johnny the Giant Slayer. Suddenly, she finds that they all can relate to the story. When it ends, their lives are changed, and all who heard the story have a new outlook on life.
Opinion:
I LOVED this book, from the first page to the last word, I was hooked. It had an intriguing plot that took lots of twists and turns. I think it will rank high on the New York Times bestseller list. The plot was beautifully written and had a surprise ending. I hope this author writes more books just like this one.
