Publisher's Summary

Alex and Conner Bailey's world is about to change, in this fast-paced adventure that uniquely combines our modern-day world with the enchanting realm of classic fairytales.

The Land of Stories tells the tale of twins Alex and Conner. Through the mysterious powers of a cherished book of stories, they leave their world behind and find themselves in a foreign land full of wonder and magic where they come face-to-face with the fairy tale characters they grew up reading about. But after a series of encounters with witches, wolves, goblins, and trolls alike, getting back home is going to be harder than they thought.

Not for us

Narration is rushed, sometimes hard to understand. For an older age bracket than my kids.

simple, predictable, but generally sweet

I listened this book when I wanted something a bit more... fanciful. I had recently read some heavy stuff and I wanted something light. this book was good for easy listening. but in that same vein I did find it pretty predictable and very much geared at teens/young adults. probably was a bit young for me to read. I enjoyed the readers voices as well.

Must be heard not read

I love the ideas and sequences and the author reads this amazingly but if I was reading I wouldn't have gotten the nuance, since he overuses the word "said"
Given this I'd recommend it for older primary, lower secondary age children.
