An increasing number of hungry monsters create general chaos at a boy’s house as they look for something to eat.
Everything here is in rhyme. For the first ten pages or so, the monsters ask to be fed. For the next ten, the boy brings out food. To finish the book, the monsters play with their food until the boy gets fed up with them (no pun intended).

This book begins when a fleet of boats comes from New Orleans carrying supplies to settlers in Pittsburgh. Unfortunately, the Indians are rallying together to drive all settlers from their land. The Indians attack the fleet while it is in the narrow areas on the Ohio River. The fleet has to force their way through to help a settlement in time, after being told by Henry Ware that it was in danger.
I liked this book for two reasons. Because I like books with adventure in them, and this book is the sequel to Kentucky Frontiersmen.

The king and queen have lots of boys, and the king wishes they had a girl. At first he had been happy to have a son, but there were so many, — well, he’d like to have a girl. One day, the queen gives birth to a girl, and she is named Daffodil. The good fairy Mumruffin casts a spell over her so that wherever the princess walks, flowers shall grow. By the time Daffodil has learned to walk, everyone has forgotten about the spell. But the king remembers when he finds his favorite courtyard dotted with flowers. Daffodil is no longer allowed to walk on paths. She must either ride or walk on the grass. But when the doctor orders that she be given exercise, what will the royal family do?
This is a good book. Please read it! This book is by the same author as the Winnie the Pooh Series… A. A. Milne! And no, no characters from Winnie the Pooh make surprise appearances in the story of The Magic Hill.
