The Grimm Legacy

Assalamualaikum and Hello, buddies!  Today, I'm going to post about my most favorite English storybook. The book is The Grimm Legacy by Polly Shulman.




synopsis: Elizabeth has a new job at an unusual library— a lending library of objects, not books. In a secret room in the basement lies the Grimm Collection. That's where the librarians lock away powerful items straight out of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales: seven-league boots, a table that produces a feast at the blink of an eye, Snow White's stepmother's sinister mirror that talks in riddles.

When the magical objects start to disappear, Elizabeth embarks on a dangerous quest to catch the thief before she can be accused of the crime—or captured by the thief.

Polly Shulman has created a contemporary fantasy with a fascinating setting and premise, starring an ordinary girl whose after-school job is far from ordinary— and leads to a world of excitement, romance and magical intrigue.




I borrowed this books from my friend, Sabrina Tan. I took about three to four months to read this book. It's not because this book is so thick,it just because I was too busy with school activities until I stop read this book even before I reached the climax. Luckily, Sabrina didn't scold me for borrowing her book for such a long duration. So, on June 2012, my mission to read this book until the last page was succeed. :D

I love this book because there are sense of love and sense of adventures in the story. The adventures starts when a few things went missing and Elizabeth had to solve the problems with her new friend, Mark and Anjali.

Besides, this is the second English storybooks that I manage to read until the last page. All this while, I will read an English srorybooks but stop halg way. That's the reason why I love this books. I give this books 5 stars.

I recommend everyone to read this books especially those who love fantacy, magic and adventures. You can buy this books from any book store. I got to go now. Please spend yout time to watch the video below. Thank you. Assalamualaikum...
