In the highly anticipated continuation of the Land of Stories series, Conner learns that the only place to fight the Masked Man's literary army is inside his own short stories!
When the twins and their friends enter worlds crafted from Conner's imagination, finding allies no one else could have ever dreamed of, the race begins to put an end to the Masked Man's reign of terror.
I LOVE this series. I am a 3/4 grade teacher and my students have fallen in love with this series as much as I have. I noticed when I first read book 1 I realized many of my students had never heard the fairytales and rhymes that I had loved as a child.
I started introducing my students to rhymes and fairytales as school starts in August and then once all the characters are familiar to them, we start a Land of Stories daily reading.
All of my students have learning differences and most have significant struggles with reading. This book has been a game changer. Students who would struggle with books and dreaded anything with words all of a sudden started to fall in love with reading. The fact that Conner has attention issues, trouble with school, and occasionally misspells things makes the students feel like they have something in common with the characters.
I have former students coming up to me all the time with updates about the books. I even had a little bet about who would get this book read first.
