Igraine the Brave Audiobook

" fun read, that I would feel comfortable suggesting to most kids, boys and girls. Magic and knights! Igraine is a very strong willed main character, and while she is a girl, I think that all the knights and magic will still appeal to boys. I read it one night, in just a few hours, so it is a nice, quick read. "

" I liked when i was 11 but I now think it quite childish. I read the "Inkheart" trilogy first thats why i tried this one. I would say it was intend for 8 to 11 year olds. I recomend it to people who like reading fantasy (girls as well as boys). "

" I really liked this "knight" story for girls. Igraine is the daughter of two magicians but really wants to be a knight. She gets to try the life of a knight when her parents accidentally turn themselves into pigs and she must help defend her castle against enemies. "

" Igraine's magician parents manage to turn themselves into pigs while casting a difficult spell, so it's up to her to save the day - and the kingdom from the evil magician Osmund. Booktalked to 3rd graders this spring. "

" A book filled with adventure kingdoms and most of all magic. It is the most awesome book ever if you are into kingdoms and fairy tales. I believethis is a great book and I believe you will think the same as me. "

" listened to this with Claire & Audrey while driving from the Grand Canyon to Phoenix. It's a fun, most enjoyable story with a spunky heroine and engaging characters. Would love to see it made into a movie! "

" Quick, fun read! My third grader read it and loved it too! "

" Very quick, fun read "

" I got this book in a little book store in Lorne, Victora, Australia. I used to go visit the store every year and the best book i bought was this one. I read it often and find new thigs, exciting or interesting. I love this book. "

" This gentle fantasy is great for the younger crowd. It's interesting and exciting without being too scary or dark or threatening. Igraine's family is full of love and concern, and even the teasing of her brother and the disapproval of her parents isn't too stinging. "

" Clyde really seemed to enjoy this one. It was longer than the ones we had attempted in the past. Igraine comes from a family of magicians but she wants to be a knight. When some magic goes awry it's up to her and her older brother to save the day, their castle and their parents. "

" Cornelia Funke is an amazing children's author. I love her work. "

" This was a fun book to read with the boys. They really liked it and didn't want to skip reading nights which is a sign of a good book. The writing was simple and clear and the story amusing and the main character and her older brother were capable and brave. Recommended for the 8 to 12 year old set. "

" This book was read at the dinner table and after dinner. Fun girl heroine in this book, a nice light fantasy for the kids. "

" Everything that a well-written children's adventure story should be. It follows the formula. But I've come to expect more from Funke. She didn't color outside the line with this one, but it was still very enjoyable. "

" Mady and I had so much fun reading this book together... it's very silly and imaginative! "

" I picked this one up in the library because I've enjoyed Cornelia Funke in the past. Not sure if I'll finish this one, though. I need something a little more mature right now, I think. "

" This is for the 9 - 12 yr old rage. Excellent book! Adventure, friendship, magic, treachery, a brave little girl! "

" I absolutely loved this book--not only was it a great twist on a fairytale but I loved the female protagonist and the narrator. Definitely appropriate for a family listen on the road. "

" Read this book with my niece. What a fun story that shows young girls that they can do anything they set their mind to. I love that the main character is a young girl who has a mind of her own and that she takes it upon herself to be instrumental in saving her family. "

" A great read for young, adventurous girls. My daughter loved the adventure and humor and, of course, the female protagonist. "

" I enjoy many of Ms. Funke's books, and this one was cute. I liked the strong female character! Not as interesting as her other books though. 10/20/07 "

" This book was a cute little story about a girl that is small but wants to prove she be big "

" Fantasy in the strong/spunky girl school, well-rendered as Funke's always are. For a younger reader than some of her longer works like Inkheart, even though stylistically, they're much the same. "

" Read with my 9 year old last year. Cute book! "

" Aimed at younger readers than Funke's other books. I found it thoroughly enjoyable--creative, fun, entertaining. Avoids the darker overtones of some of her other stuff. Also fun to see it illustrated with Funke's own drawings. "

" Cute. Not substantial, but cute. I liked a lot of things about it (writing style, the characters and their development, the interesting-enough plot line), and it was quick and fun to read. I would recommend it to any young girl. But it's not a Must Read. "

" wonderful book to read to the kids "

" I love it! It was a great book. "

" Lots of fun. Funny read-aloud. Tim and Kate both enjoyed it. "

" Ryan's review: It was amazing. (I'm trying to get more out of him than this.) : )Mom comments: A story where courage, bravery, honor and integrity are illustrated. Would appeal to boys or girls. I liked it. "

" We listened to this in the car and it was great! I loved the reader and the story. Simply a cute story about a spunky girl who wants to be a knight versus a magician who helps save her parent's castle when under attack. "

" Great story to begin kids on fantasy- not as difficult- great for 4th grade readers "

" A fun story to read with along with a pre-teen child. "

" What a great book! All Cornelia Funke books are! "

" really cool book i totally loved it and i must have renweed it from the library about...i don't know 6 times! any ways it was a really good book "

" This was a great book for children's Book Clubs!! Great character development!! "

" I did NOT like this book. The title was horrible, and had almost nothing to do with the book. This book is dry and lifeless. "

" Read with my 9 year old last year. Cute book! "

" So cute, but for little kids. "
