Facing the Hunchback of Notre Dame [Paperback]

'Narrator Bartholomew Inkster brings Lemony Snicketlike irony to frame the story. Self-conscious chapter titles (Welcoming the Character that Rounds Things Out) and references to literature throughout the narrative make this a feast for middle-grade book lovers. Kids who like quirky adventure stories with idiosyncratic characters will enjoy a simpler kind of fun.' - Publishers Weekly ReviewLinus and Julia Easterday find themselves in the strangest situations.
