Summary: Redwall
Review: I think that this book is really good because it explains everything in detail and does not leave you hanging and confused.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT FIRST NOVEL FOR YOUNG READERS
Review: Finally a book the parent can enjoy with the child. My 11 year old and I both had lots of fun reading this - trading off a few chapters at a time. As I parent, I am always searching for books to spark the child's interest, and this one hit the nail on the head. The other reviews all seem to have a very wide interpretation of the target reading age - one reviewer suggested 7-9! C'mon, I don't know any 7 year olds with this vocabulary and very few 11 year olds for that matter. Brian Jacques frequently uses some difficult words that a lot of kids won't immediately know. I realize the standard Parent response is to send the child to the dictionary, and this is fine, but that gets old and could drain the interest in the story and reading all together...it's supposed to fun! However, the gist of the sentence or thought is always clear despite the harder words.
Enjoy!

Summary: Unforgiving target age.
Review: I realize that Redwall is intended for those under the age of 13, but I don't necessarily think that should exlude the rest of us from enjoying the book. Either I am overestimating the literary capabilities of children or Jacques is underestimating them, because this book seems like it would be more appropriate for 7-9 year olds with the exception of its length. I did read the book in a day, so it is enjoyable, I just wish that Jacques would've at least thrown in a few subtle adult themes or concepts for us more sophisticated (yeah righ!) readers to gnaw upon.

Summary: Redwall rules
Review: Redwall is a book of adventure and bravery. A young mouse, Matthias, is the best part of the book. He is brave and cares for others. I liked the book and i thought it was very well written. Also, there are many other noticable characters like Abbot Mortimer, Cornflower, Constance and Methusaleh. Methusaleh is one of Matthias's best friend before she dies. Warbeak, is also a good friend of Matthias. Even though Warbeak is a sparrow and they're supposed to hate eachother they become friends.

Summary: Redwall
Review: I enjoyed this book very much. I have to say that it is my favorite book.It is full of adventure and action. The characters are so rich and exciting. The author describes the book in great detail. you fell like you are there in that setting and with those characters.When other books are in great detail they are boring but this is not. The plot is great with many twists and turns. When you start reading this book you will not want to put it down because its so great and so cliff-hanging. I reccomend this book to anyone because it will pull you in right from the beginning. I think this book should get more awards for its quality writing.

Summary: red wall
Review: The Redwall books are now without a doubt my favorites, my teacher recommended them to me and I fell in love with them. When I'm reading, I can actually feel what's happening, like I'm there watching it happen. I will read for hours, not wanting the book to end. ...When I'm reading, I feel like I'm living in two worlds; the first is wonderful Mossflower, or the Abbey, or Salamandastron, and second is the vague feeling of the real world around me. You may be surprised that a fifth grader can feel this emotion, but it happens to me all the time. I truly love these books, and I encourage everyone to read them, because even though the perfectly woven tale will end, the only way it can end is for you to start at the beginning. :-)

Summary: amazing
Review: I thought this book was really good. At first I thought that because all of the characters were animals it wouldn't be that good of a book. But after you get into the 2nd or 3rd chapter you will find that this story couldn,t have been done with normal people. It did have a few problems but there wasnt really anything bad. Jacques has done a great job explaining all of the characters personalitys. I recomend this book to readers of all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREATEST SERIES EVA!
Review: O.K. let me just say that I may be a younger person but this book is great for all ages. I am a kid who doesn't read. I do book reports on books i read in 3rd grade. One time i didn't even read a book and I did a report on it, but then a few days ago my friend told me of a series he had been reading and i asked him if i could borrow his book. I read it from cover to cover in 4 days.(that's quick for me). Om my third day when i was reading the book i ordered the next 2 books and i plan on ordering the entire series soon!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: What a wonderful book!
Review: This is a great book. I couldn't put it down after I started reading it. The main character is a young ambitious mouse named Matthias. His hero is a mouse named Martin the Warrior, even though Martin is dead. Matthias finds a riddle that explains where the hero's sword is. Matthias goes on a quest to find the sword, his friends defend Redwall Abbey from Cluny the Scourge and his army of rats, ferrets, weasels, and stoats. Matthias makes a lot of good friends while searching for the hero's sword, and saves Redwall from Cluny and his horde. This book has a lot gore in it, and a four-letter explative or two, so it is better suited for the older reader who loves animals and wants more adventure than Wind in the Willows.
