Glad you get what I’m driving at, Pip! *continues to find the subject interesting and silently ponders it*
A Visit to William Blake’s Inn: Poems for Innocent and Experienced Travelers by Nancy Willard 40 pages
I personally like the poetry in this. My favorite pieces are The Wise Cow Enjoys a Cloud, Blake’s Wonderful Car Delivers Us Wonderfully Well, The King of Cats Sends a Postcard to His Wife, and Blake Leads a Walk on the Milky Way. I remember loving these when I was little.

DragonSpell by Donita K. Paul 334 pages
You all are going to really dislike me at this point. I didn’t like this. I’ve read it atleast twice before, liked it then, but couldn’t seem to at this point. I still like the characters (Dar, Fenworth, and Brunstetter being my favorite) and her character names (D’Shay being my favorite) but the writing was bad and I had a lot of trouble picturing the characters and the writing was bad. *sigh* Yeah, had trouble with that. I’m a little weary of reading the other’s now. But, I am curious about DragonLight so I shall continue.
