BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ADVISABLE 


AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

Why is the letter D disappearing? Young Dhikilo seems to be the only one who notices or cares. Then things that start with D disappear – dentists, dalmatians, etc. Dhikilo will need help from someone special in order to make a trip to the realm controlling the D’s. She will be put to the test and need to help to conquer this odd, crazy world and restore D to her world. 

What a wild, crazy ride! Young’s narration drew me into the world and I was seeing the weird new world stealing the Ds. Fantasy lovers will have a great time with this. The audiobook was provided by The King’s English Bookshop through libro.fm
