The League & The Lantern (Review and Giveaway)
When Sassy Pants has a chance to read — especially when the book has no danger of being inappropriate — I’m happy to give her that opportunity. We recently received a copy of The League and the Lantern by Brian Wells. I thought it would make sense to let Sassy Pants write the review:
I really enjoyed this book. I love how the characters’ attitudes and personalities come together to make one great team. I love the fact that it dates back to the Civil War and Abe Lincoln because it is one of my favorite things to read about.
My favorite character is Lucy. You may think it’s because I’m a girl. But no. It’s because she’s super cool and powerful. She knows her stuff and has a great sense of humor. I enjoy reading her adventures with the boys and especially love the girl power represented in the book.
I recommend this book for ages 9 and up. For younger kids, it might be hard to understand. But for older kids with a sense of adventure, it would really suit them. I recommend this book to really anyone but specifically 9 and up because you are constantly changing characters and trying to figure out who said what and who did what. Some parts are slightly easier while others aren’t.
This is a really good book, and I can’t wait to see and read more books by Brian Wells.
order Ivermectin over the counter Synopsis:
The League and the Lantern is the first book in a new adventure series for middle-school readers. It all starts when a dangerous organization invades Jake Herndon’s seventh-grade sleepover. He escapes along with two new classmates, Lucy and TJ, only to face a 48-hour fight for survival on the streets of Chicago. The kids unravel a mystery dating back to the Civil War, and an incredible secret about Jake’s family. Along the way they learn unexpected lessons about courage, family and friendship.
Even more amazing is the fact that there are 140 vocabulary words hidden throughout the story, and (as Sassy Pants pointed out) historic sites are part of the setting. Your child will be exposed to lessons in family, friendship, mercy and compassion.
When a purchase of The League and the Lantern is made, a free book is gifted to a child in need.

I like reading about to 1920’s and ’30’s because it was such a time of social transition.
That is a super cool era!
