What I liked:
The inspiration for Tolkein's writings had me intrigued as who doesn't like to read something that inspires a brilliant author. The Marvellous Land of Snergs is an adventurous, delightful tale that children will enjoy, with eye-catching illustrations to accompany the story. I would recommend reading this, if possible, as a read-aloud to children, as funny, made-up words are best when everyone is trying to figure out what they mean in the context of the world we are adventuring through.
Final Verdict:
The author knew just what to include to keep children entertained, magic, mayhem, baddies, secrets, and of course, a puppy. I almost feel like this could be like taking an adventure with the BFG from Ronald dahl with the fun, made-up words. The Marvellous Land of Snergs was a great pleasure to read.
