A truly unforgettable journey of wonder, courage and magic from a master storyteller, perfect for fans of Katherine Rundell and Philip Pullman. Shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Prize.
Plunged into danger when they help their father steal a forbidden book, Rachel and Robert are forced to go on the run. To save their father from prison, they must discover the truth about The Book of Stolen Dreams.
But the cruel and powerful President Malstain knows its secrets and will stop at nothing to snatch the book’s magic for himself. The hunt is on. Rachel and Robert face a desperate battle to stop the book falling into Malstain’s hands – for if it does, he could destroy everything.

I really enjoyed this book. My favourite character is Rachel because she is determined to get out of the orphanage and help her brother Robert. An excellent story of courage, determination and kindness. I really recommend this book.

This book (written by David Farr) is an unforgettable adventure that will whisk you away to another land without you needing to spend one penny on a travel ticket. Though this is a dangerous book to read because once you start reading it you can't put it down. If you are a reader who loves adventure, chapters that will make you hold your breath and a gripping magical story, than this is the correct book for you.

I liked it because it was about orphans and it was fantasy based, which is one of my favourite genres
