Review by Denver Patron |
| The book was a great book if you like fantasy. The book was about a girl named Sophie the eldest of three sisters and a women turns her in to an old women. she meets a guy named howl. He moves around in a moving castle but, its more like a house.Thats all i'm going to tell you.
--------------
This is a terrific book that I love to read over and over again. Jones' creative writing keeps you reading and wondering about the next event in the story. Sophie was sitting in her hat shop when she was put under a horrible curse by the Witch of the Waste. It turned her into an old lady! |
