review 1: As the second one in this series, this title is funny and fiesty like the first one. This time Elliot, now crowned King of the Brownies, has been paired up with Cambria on a science fair project, much to his dismay. However, before they can get very far, Elliot is approached by Mr. Willimaker who demands that Elliot release Grissel the Goblin, except that Mr. Willimaker doesn't seem like Mr. Willimaker. The next thing you know, Tubs and Elliot get "fairied" to the underworld. Elliot, wanting to help his friends, then goes on a dangerous quest get certain things from a very evil and dark creature. Told in a sarcastic, witty way, readers will laugh, worry and rejoice as the plot develops. Black and white line illustrations by Gideon Kendall highlight the wonderful expres... moresions on the characters' faces. Although it is the second one in the series, readers need not fear. Nielsen writes, ..."if you haven't read it, don't worry. Neither has Elliot."
review 2: I have not read the first book in the series, but I found this book easy to read and follow. Jennifer keeps the action going in this book. I enjoyed the humor that flowed from one silly obstacle to the next as Elliot tries to meet the demands of the angry Pixies. This is a fun book to read and hard to put down, a real page turner. I enjoyed the Gripping Mud, surprisingly tasty turnip juice and a tingly invisibility potion gone wrong. Along the way in the journey Elliot learns how to navigate some different kinds of relationships and appreciate the better qualities in unlikely allies. less
