5Enchanted Lands : The Mission  May 01, 2007

I thought that the book was very unique.I also thought it was a very interesting story.It also was very good.Not alot of authors use their state's culture with fiction.I think that the author,Mary Moore is very creative.She used creative words, such as Yappy-Yo-Yo,and Fantamarific.The culture was in her hometown.I recommend that you read the book.

5Teachers will love this.  Apr 28, 2007
By Mary B. Westbrook
Mary Moore is a masterful writer. As I was reading Enchanted Lands, I gave my students updates on the adventures of Yappy-Yo-Yo. They were enthralmazed. I am in deepmiration. The word play was such fun to read, and tempting to imitate. I can see a whole series. It must have been fun to write. The references to the Indian Tribes gives it that special little hook that other novels lack. I loved the book. I hope Mary Moore is cranking out the next adventure of the Zozoan Force?

5Home grown Harry Potter  Apr 01, 2007
By Kathy "book lover"
Harry Potter, move over! Chili Bear Claw is a new preteen hero on the scene of fantasy/science fiction books. But Mary and Stephen Moore's book is unique because of the large helping of Native American lore in the story. The "mission" in Enchanted Lands: The Mission is to get Roswell, New Mexico's famous aliens back to their home planet. To accomplish this, Chili, his buddy Mac, and Emily the talking greyhound, have all sorts of wild adventures. Talking animals, Apache reservation ceremonies, travels beneath earth's surface via the heart-stopping "whurzle," and magic stones are only parts of this exciting, clever book. Middle schoolers can read it for themselves, and it's a great read-aloud for upper elementary. This is a book parents and grandparents will enjoy with their children. Smart, funny, thoughtful. Highly recommended!

By M. A. Morgan
Delightful! Enchanted Lands- The Mission, is full of charming characters, wonderful cultural experiences and life priciples. The reader will be drawn into a vivid world with unique problems to solve and immersed in a rich vocabulary. This book will captivate young and old readers alike. Mary and Steve Moore have captured the unique flavor of New Mexico and presented a fun, even plausable, explaination of the mystery that surrounds the Roswell incident of the 1940's. Prepare to be charmed and intriqued as you read this imaginative story of friendship, growing pains and courage among an unlikely group of heros.
