This month our momstown Edmonton mama's gathered for our monthly Mama Book Club. In November, our book was provided by Scholastic Canada who sponsors many of our momstown Literacy Programs including our Toddler book club called Tales for Tots, Rhyme Rhythm and Read and our Baby Book Club.

by Jaclyn Moriarty
This book also goes beyond definition but is huge in-house favourite! Jaclyn is a truly unique gifted writer, and this story is set partly in our world and partly in an invented world—between these two worlds is a gap, and a troubled teen has found a way to communicate with a young man in the fantasy world.
I love the personification of colours it made my imagination run wild. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the books in the series. It was an easy read that was full of whimsy. I hope we are able to do another book review with Scholastic. Perhaps something a little deeper. Thanks for the opportunity to read and review!

Cute concept - Madeleine lived in the world as we know it, and Elliott lives in a fantasy world and they communicate by letter via a crack between the two worlds (the letters appear in a parking meter and an art sculpture). Madeleine doesn't believe Elliott but then they end up helping each other out inadvertently through their correspondence.Definitely an easy read s ince it is book 1 of a trilogy, I can see myself reading the next 2.
