Amulet Book #1: The Stonekeeper

Ok this is one of the best books I have ever read I’ve first saw this in book fair in my school and the price was too much so bought in Amazon so that was the best decision ever such an amazing book

Totally loved the story. Felt like it was too short. The theme is a bit dark, involing loss of a parent. Also, it is a little creepy in the beginning. So might not be suitable for little kids. That said, as an adult, i absolutely loved reading it. Its a well.written story with fantastic illustrations and the graphic novel flows seamlessly as we read through. My book arrived with a few scuffed corners and bent pages, but over all, worth it.

The book was in good condition, satisfied with the delivery

Good book for children. Nice illustrations and in good condition

What I love about this graphic novel aka comic book is that it has mysterious emotional and haunted sourness sweetness for your child to read what I love about about comics is that they are given with fun pictures also with texts which gives your child a lot of intrest and attraction towards comics I loved amulet series I'm going to order the whole series ✨💖💗💓💕💯

It was so nice to read, nice quality. I completed the book in one day I can’t stop reading as it was so inviting.

Nice but very short

i like with book with hardcover because it iv very better

Amulet, a graphic novel by Kazu Kibuishi ( Flight, Volume One , Daisy Kutter: The Last Train ), is geared towards the 9-12 age group. However, the novel will captivate anyone that begins to read it as they are swept along a moving story with beautiful illustrations. Our young heroine Emily witnesses the death of her father in the opening pages of this novel. Emily, her mother, and her brother Nevin move into the home of their missing great grandfather. There are secrets lurking within the house, one that soon ensnares Emily's mom. She's dragged from the basement by a tentacle through an open door and Emily and Nevin must go on a rescue mission to another world. This story captivates the reader from the beginning. The reader is compelled to feel for the characters of the story, from Emily witnessing the death of her father to watching her mom being dragged away by some unknown creature. Although this is only the first part of the series the reader gets a true sense of the characters, their feelings, and their emotions and is left hanging at the end of this book and wanting more. What really sells the story are the illustrations as they capture and convey the moods of the characters and their surroundings. The drawings have a light airy quality to them, with a simple, but moody, color palette to show off the extensive use of shadows to convey emotions of the character in graphic detail. The reader is never left wanting or wondering what the characters are thinking, the colors clearly display what they feel--the age of the great-grandfather is written into the lines on his face, the fear and courage of Emily as she seeks to save her what's left of her family. As the story progresses a darker palette is used and we are left wanting the lighter colors to return. Something unique about the drawings is that when the story first begins the characters almost look undefined. While we can read their emotions they are merely shapes on a page. However, as the story progresses they gain more depth and emotion. This novel is a must read. A strong young heroine, with monsters and robots as well, enough to keep any crowd entertained. The moving illustrations and compelling story make this a great read and the book is highly recommended for all ages.

Good

My son absolutely loves these books that were recommended by a teacher. He loves manga so these graffic novels are great

My kid loves it. Great for every teenager.

this is a really good book because it has a good price, but the story is not Long enough it only has like 200 pages, it's a good amount of pages, but it's a comic so thoose 200 pages become in like 75 pages and the price is $300, i like the book because the story intrigues you besarse the story is too short
