Sophies book corner (1/3 people found this helpful)
If you want a gripping read, a thriller and a terrifiying roller coaster of a story, CORNIELIA FUNKE'S THIEF LORD IS FOR YOU!!!
The two characters I like best are Scipio and Morisina, I like Morisina because she is cunning and clever.
The story is about two children, Prosper and his little brother Bo
their mum has died so they have been given to their nasty aunt Esther Hartlieb!!! They run away to Venice where they are befriended by a gang of street children.....!!
Cornelia is a promising talent, the vocabulary she uses is excellent
I recommend this book to 7+ year olds.
