Once upon a time, in a small village nestled among rolling green hills, there lived a young boy named Oliver. Oliver was an avid reader and loved to lose himself in the stories woven within the pages of a book. One day, as he explored the dusty corners of the village library, he stumbled upon a hidden door behind a row of ancient bookshelves. Curiosity getting the better of him, Oliver pushed open the heavy door and found himself in a room filled with books unlike any he had ever seen before. As he approached the shelves, Oliver was drawn to a book bound in red leather with intricate gold detailing. The book seemed to emanate a faint glow, as if it held secrets waiting to be discovered.
Dorko the Magnificent has a wonderful cast of colorful characters, from unstoppable, magic loving Robbie, unpredictable and witty Grandma Melvin, PB&J taco eating Cat (Robbie's BFF), to an ape of a little brother who chews on everything, and many more. These are unforgettable, lovable, and charming characters that each have of a special shine of their own.
Beaty touches on subjects like debt, bullying, overworked parents, and death, and does so with thoughtfulness and honesty, and in a way that is both appropriate and comprehensible to young readers. But Robbie discovers that Grandma Melvyn was once a part of a famous magic act and she agrees to give him magic lessons in preparation for the big school talent show.
The book seemed to emanate a faint glow, as if it held secrets waiting to be discovered. Hesitant but intrigued, Oliver reached out and cautiously opened the magical book. To his amazement, the pages were filled with shimmering words and illustrations that seemed to come alive before his eyes.

1. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I found "The Magnificent Magic Book" to be incredibly disappointing. The plot was predictable, and the characters lacked depth. I was hoping for an exciting and captivating read, but instead, I was bored throughout most of the book. The writing style was also lacking, with awkward phrasing and choppy dialogue. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone looking for a truly magical reading experience.
2. John - 1/5 stars - "The Magnificent Magic Book" was a huge letdown for me. The storyline was weak and lacked any originality. I felt like I was reading a poorly written fan fiction instead of a professionally published novel. The supposed magical elements were underdeveloped and failed to captivate my imagination. Additionally, the pacing was off, and the book dragged on unnecessarily. I regret wasting my time and money on this book.
3. Lisa - 2/5 stars - I had high hopes for "The Magnificent Magic Book," but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The story started off promising, but quickly became repetitive and formulaic. The main characters felt one-dimensional, and their motivations were unclear. The author failed to create a sense of wonder and awe, which is essential in a book centered around magic. The ending was also unsatisfying and left many loose ends. Overall, I was disappointed with the lack of depth and originality in this book.
4. Michael - 2/5 stars - "The Magnificent Magic Book" didn't live up to its title for me. The magic system was poorly explained, and I was left with more questions than answers. The writing style was also subpar, with clunky sentences and inconsistent tone. The author had some interesting ideas, but they weren't executed well. The pacing was slow, and the book felt overly long. I'm afraid I can't recommend this book to fellow magic enthusiasts.
