Or will darkness rule the land of Elyon? Read the series to find out!

What I love about this series is the curiosity of Alexa. I also love the animals and her interactions with them the animal voices are portrayed well, and really help you to picture the animal. I also love the people, because they are so realistic, even in the midst of all the adventures. Alexa is also portrayed very well as she grows from book to book.
