Book Reviews of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium
Book Review: Cute story
Summary: 4 Stars
This children's book gives a short overview of Edward Magorium's life. The story is written from the perspective of a young boy who is retelling the stories about Magorium that Bellini read him. Each chapter is a letter of the alphabet, from A to Z, and each section within each chapter starts with that particular letter (for example, B includes the section "Bird Feathers"). Most of the book is devoted to how Magorium interacted with and inspired people throughout history. For example, Magorium was the one to tell the Brothers Grimm to write down their stories, Magorium was the inspiration for someone to create the game of volleyball, etc. I liked how the author used clever storytelling to work in famous quotes. For example, the following excerpt: "One day, many years from his graduation, Edward would tell this story to his friend Mark Twain while scrapbooking ... Twain turned to him and said, 'Well Magorium, I like how you didn't let school get in the way of your education!"
Overall, the book is a lighthearted tale of adventure, imagination, and finding your purpose in life.
