Four Feinds by Nikki Bennett
Four not so popular tweens, living in four different countries of the world are found by four magical wormlike creatures. The creatures take the foursome to meet the Yellow Dragon, the guide for four magical creatures who protect the world. These creatures have been captured by four fiends. It is up to the tweens to find and rescue the Guardians from the fiends and save the world.
Each tween in their efforts to save the world will confront and hopefully overcome faults in themselves. JingJing, Pietro, Kate and Saburo will embark on a journey where they will confront the fiends of Gluttony, Chaos, Ignorance and Deviousness.
As each takes on their own particular challenge they will learn about themselves and each other.
Ms. Bennett leads the readers on an exciting journey as we share the tweens adventures. As each journey unfolds the reader shares the fear and excitement as well as learning the lesson being taught.
This reviewer recommends Nikki Bennett’s, Four Fiends, for tweens and their parents for an exciting journey through time and the minds of a tween as they learn about life.~ Christina Weigand
The Buzz:
“This was one of the most entertaining reads for the whole family we have found in a long time. The characters are very believable, and I am always a sucker for heroes that have to find their way. The reading is very fluid and easily understood by the little kids when read aloud (sounds silly but anyone trying to do this will tell you it’s not as easy a thing to achieve as it sounds) and the kids all seem to enjoy the story. The history is easily accessible even without a lot of research or background knowledge. The kids are very motivated to research and learn more on their own because this story has captured their interest. I already have many home learning lessons in mind using this book and have begun developing them with my kids. I think this is a book that will be found in classrooms very soon! Great job! I’m looking forward to more soon!!!” ~ 5 Star Review, Mariah W., Amazon
“Excellent read in and of itself, and provides excellent, character-building source material for reading to youngsters. The characters are well written and realistic, and the storyline is cleverly written and intelligent.” 5 Star Review, Alia K., Amazon
“Fantastic read. I loved the characters in this book so much that I re-read to my 9 year old after finishing it. I highly recommend this book for anyone that likes stories about adventure and believing in yourself.” ~ 5 Star Review, Keith, Amazon
