Odd, no mention of how Eragon is just a Luke figure in dragon clothes? (Smiles to RT)

My 10-year-old niece, also a precocious and voracious reader, has really enjoyed the Artemis Fowl books (by Eoin Colfer) I've given her. I think there are five or six of them.

Mine didn't like these, but I thought the one I read was fun. Colfer also wrote The Wishlist which is a bit darker but very good.
The second best thing that happened yesterday was my daughter showing me that she was reading The War of the Worlds. We had listened to a radio program about the various radio programs on WoTW and she finally picked it up. Today she is reading HG Wells and seeing the after glow of an historic election. My heart is so full of pride!
