Within the first few lines of this book, the narrator teases you a bit with this magical world that he has abandoned in pursuit for the technological world. However, in his old age, he decides to go to the magical woods again. This magical woods, called Tanglewood, was in need of his help. For this older man was a writer from the heart. This is just what Tanglewood needed - someone to pen the stories of its past. The stories start off with a boy named Colin. Colin finds himself lured into Tanglewood and soon discovers that he has fey, fairy, blood within him. He shortly finds himself in trouble with some pixies and must embark on a journey for his freedom.
This story is beautifully written. The story is interesting and unique. Truly a great read. The book is also beautifully formatted. It would not surprise me if this book became a cherished tale like that of Eragon. My favorite line of the book says that if you cannot find magic in the world, you must find magic in yourself. So, whatever you do today, go find that magic within you.

Candy Wars: The Tooth Fairies vs The Candy King Review

It's been many years since I've read a kids book from start to finish. I'd purchased "Candy Wars" to read with my 7 year-old granddaughter. Her first visit we took turns reading. She managed her part without much help from this old geezer. By the time of her next visit she was on her own, I'd finished without her.
At its heart this is the story of a fantasy land where tooth fairies live when not slipping a few bucks under your pillow. Yes, fairies, it's too much work for just one. When little brother James disappears his sister Emily manages to follow him into the land of the tooth fairies. The fantasy land R.G. Cordiner has created will spark a kid's imagination while Emily and James encounter a castle made of teeth, chocolate-arrow-shooting snowmen, a toothless dragon, and more. Buried inside the adventure are a few lessons they might not realize they've learned about the evils of war and importance of family.
