Summary: An awesome fantasy book for all ages!
Review: 1/7/97 I really liked this book alot. Nicoboinus takes you on a wild and dangerous at times, ride beyond even your wildess dreams. It will leave you guessing at all times at what will happen to Nicobobinus and his best friend Rosey. I myself have read this book at least 3 times and I'm starting it again. This book is not only a good book for children, but also for adults. For adults it will make you feel like a child again. I would recommend this book between ages eight years old to ninety-two. I will leave this reveiw at that, with saying I would read this book if you like fantasy books, because this is the best. sincerely, Michelle Barbara O'Loughlin

Summary: A GREAT BOOK!
Review: I chose this book because it is by my fourth favorite comedien, Terry Jones. It is about a boy named Nicobobinus and his friend Rosie, who go to find the land of the Dragons, because Nicobobinus can do anything. My favorite character is the Golden man, because it is funny that a gold statue walks, talks, and has servents.

This book has the power to touch your soul and heart like no other book can. You won't be able to put it down. Nicobobinus isn't just a tale for children but, also adults. Terry Jones adds his wonderful sense of humor and blends it with fantasy and wonder. If you read Nicobobinus, by Terry Jones I promise you'll love it!

Summary: Best read aloud by adult to keep the pace...
Review: Our Grandchildren enjoy the exploits of two rather non-typical children, as long as I read it to them... even got them away from their electronic games! Good to excellent readers over age 10 might be able to keep the pace, but others would get lost in the words and asides. Now that we have had Harry Potter, the British idioms are not as foreign as when our now 26-yr-old tried to read it.

I read this book a long time ago and couldn't help but look it up to see if there were more readers who felt the same way about it.It is about a young boy and girl who go on a long journey to find dragons blood.They have a very close call many times, but they finaly find it and continue on their journey safely.I can't wait to read it again.

Summary: Imaginative, fantastic, and extremely funny adventure
Review: This book is one of my favorite books I have ever read. It is one of those gems you find that no one else seems to know about. The illustrations are fun, the story is comical, not in a silly, stupid way that some "funny" stories can be, but in a way that will actually make you laugh out loud. And the story is actually a very nice story, ending without giving you the sense that other books can of, "Well, it had some nice parts, but what was the point?" I enjoyed it as a child, and I still enjoy it as an adult (well, semi-adult). I only hope that my copy will survive for my own children.
