Review: Zeppi and Omillin a Five-Star Team

I have read every Zeppi book written by C.K. Omillin and am consistently enchanted by the author's imagination, fastidious formatting, and delightfully sensitive illustrations with a primitive naivete that highly appeals to a child's imagination. I also love the fact that children can email Zeppi and he will personally answer them "between adventures."That being said, in book 8 Zeppi visits the huge purple castle owned by Alesdor's aunt called Castle Mountains (Alesdor is the boy with whom Zeppi lives). They, along with another friend Aiku and Litlit the squirrel, travel by train (with adventures along the way) and by sleigh pulled by a horse named Air Express, across the moat to what might be a haunted adventure. Wonderful fun. Highly recommended. Now waiting for Book 9 to see if that castle is really haunted...from the noises, I kinda think so.
