Glam and Beardy
Book Review
If I could have a familiar I would have an eagle because it can fly and could carry me.
There aren’t many books which have bearded dragons as characters. Glam is disappointed to meet Beardy because he was hoping for an animal with a mark which shows which kingdom it belongs to.
If Glam’s familiar doesn’t have a mark that could end Glamour Kingdom. I don’t know whether it’s a historical record or a diary. Beardy says it’s a diary and Glam says it’s a serious historical record.
There is a map of Kin Isle at the beginning. There are different fonts for different people. I liked Beardy’s writing better than Glam’s because it was funnier.
If I could have a familiar I would have an eagle because it can fly and could carry me. I would have a boy eagle because I’m a boy.
About the Book
The five Kindoms of Kin Isle have stood since the dawn of time.Each holds its own unique power, its own importance in the balance of our world. We all belong to one of these ancient Kindoms.
When we turn ten, we Meet our Familiar, and our Familiar bears a Mark that reveals which Kindom we belong to, and we fit into our Kindom perfectly and feel wonderful and happy and good forever and ever and always.
Unless you’re me, that is. This is the historical record of how I, Glam, FINALLY met my Familiar, Beardy, and how we learned that NOTHING about our world is as it seems.
