Julu

The Julu Series, Volume 1

De: Jan Anderegg

Narrado por: Jannie Meisberger

There is a magical land just beyond our imaginations called Jirvania, where stories grow. Muse faeries harvest these "pearls" and bring them to our world.

In the heart of Jirvania stands The Great Library, home of every book ever written, and a portal to other times and places where one can step into stories and experience them firsthand. Homework has never been such fun.

When young Jack Lemoine finds an opal dragon egg in Mystic, Connecticut, he soon discovers the real world is not what he thought. Dragons, unicorns, and faeries do exist. Unfortunately, so do witches, ogres, and other monsters, and they want Jack dead—yesterday. A prophecy is written in the stars that he will one day save Jirvania, but evil forces find a way to disrupt time itself, and Jirvania is annihilated seven years before Jack comes of age.

Imagination ceases to exist. Libraries crumble, art disappears, and theme parks vanish. Music dies. Our lives become empty and meaningless.

Imprisoned on Muse Mountain, Jirvania's lone survivor, Karel, receives a visitor from the stars above, urging him to change the story.

Meanwhile, back in Mystic, Jack and his friend, Mia, are thrown into a fantastical adventure when Julu, the opal dragon, hatches to protect them, taking them back in time to fix what once went wrong.

The children soon learn that family, friendship, and love are the threads that bind us together, no matter who or what we are, and hope is found in the most unexpected places.

Now Jack must figure out how to help Karel change the story and save our imaginations before it's too late.

A Fun Fantasy for Kids of all ages

This was a really fun one, however it is a rather complicated story as it bounces back and forth between different time periods. It is definitely a book that you can listen to 2 and 3 times and pick up more information on the story. I thought the narrator did a wonderful job with the acting, voices and emotion throughout the story. She was definitely a joy to listen to. I would recommend this to older Elementary and Middle School age kids as it is a more complex storyline and I think younger kids would have a hard time following it. Overall it was a great first book in a series and I am looking forward to the next one coming out.
