Summary: Twist it thrice, no one has dared!
Review: I am 17 years old, soon to be 18, and this book still gives me goosebumps. I always have loved the book, and I always wish I could find a place like Elvin's Magic Supplies. Not that I need the ring, but there were so many other things there... Man, I want to go there!

Summary: Russell turns into a monster
Review: I think the book was excellent because this kid Russell Crannaker turned into a demon-like creature. He bought a golden ring from a magician shop because he wanted to scare his bully, Eddie. Will Russell stay as a monster forever? Read this book to find out what happens with Russell.

Summary: Like the others.....
Review: Like the other books in this series, this book focuses on a kid that buys a magic item. This item happens to be a ring, and it turnds the kid into a demon-like creature. This book was interesting and fun to read. I enjoyed it a lot.

Summary: Don't know what will happen next!
Review: Monster's Ring is really exiting to read.As soon as something good starts to happen something better begins.This book would've been better if Bruce Coville had changed when "Russel" attacks his school.Then I would've given five stars!

Summary: The first real book I've read back in elementary school.
Review: Russell was being tormented by Eddie when he finds himself lost in tiny Kennituck Falls. He sees a sign for a magic shop and enters. Inside he meets a strange old man and is sold a monster's ring. The ring comes with a spell that can change the wearer into a monster. Russell tries it and grows horns and fur. It seems to change his personality. He didn't heed the warning that the strange old man told him and changed to a monster in the full moon and can't get the ring to change him back!

Summary: Suspenseful, keeps the reader wondering.
Review: This book is great for every child that has a love for magic and a good imigination for fantasy. It touches the topic of school bullies and how to take care of them! I am using this book as part of my literature reading in my class for the month of October. I recommend that all children put on their magic rings and begin to read The Monster's Ring.

Summary: He was Hooked!
Review: This was one of the first books my son in second grade read on his own. He was quickly hooked on reading! A book like this that can challenge a 7 year old boy and draw him into a magical world where he is excited about reading deserves 5 stars. The plot is solid and not so predictable as many early reading series.
