7/6/2023 0 Comments Amulet the stonekeeper bookThere are some 'mature' themes throughout such as the dad dying at the beginning and the great grandfather dying but at 8 years old most kids can handle that especially understanding that it is fiction but they can empathize with the characters' losses which is what a good book does! The characters are relatable for my son, and he loves all their various quirks. No more violent than old school batman and robin or spiderman cartoon, and its in defense of others or to protect others except when its perpetrated by the evil Elves. However, following the heart-wrenching but non-violent death of the father (auto crash) the author paints a touching picture of the structural reconciliation and emotional. The opening pages are filled with strong tragedy and emotions are high. He has books 1-3 and has read and re-read them each at least 3 times! The illustrations are phenomenal, the storyline is interesting and creative, suspenseful, and has just enough 'violence' to captivate and facinate my kid without being inappropriate or overly graphic. Great for boys and girls looking to move past Cptn. It is accessible to most kids that read at minimum a grade 2/3 level. My 8 year old son absolutely loves these books.
