Description: There He Kept Her Very Well by M. Goose, Curt Simons Dark and sinister things are afoot when a young woman goes missing and eleven-year-old Mary is pulled into the mystery. But a worse fate seems to await Mary when she gets ahold of a mysterious journal and dangerous people begin following her.When an old photograph surfaces that provides clues to Marys own family mystery, it isnt long before its revealed that the two cases are intertwined and the young girl must solve the case before she becomes a missing person herself.With a backdrop of dark humor and intrigue, this book is the first in The M. Goose Chronicles, and aims to combine a classic feel with a contemporary mystery story, using artful language and is steeped in serious humor and crafty storytelling. Reminiscent of Lewis Carrolls voice of Alice along with the drollery style of Lemony Snicket, the book will have middle-grade readers enjoying the fun and inventive twists to the characters and places of their beloved nursery tales.If you liked The Mysterious Benedict Society and A Series of Unfortunate Events then this dark twist on Mother Goose tales is the next best read. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Review "The authors style of writing in The M. Goose Chronicles: There He Kept Her Very Well was beautiful to read. Very witty and delightfully droll in a way that is done so cleverly and seamlessly that it does not seem forced or contrived. Also, the writing was timeless and classic in a way that you rarely see middle-grade books written nowadays.It was great fun, particularly as a childrens book lover, to pull apart the connections to the nursery rhymes, even those that were almost inconspicuously incorporated. The great thing is that for the readers who "get it," and saw those links, its very amusing. And for the ones who might not, the story is strong enough that it can stand on its own.5 stars all the way!"-Tara Lewis Childrens book marketing expert; Founder, Tara Lewis Publishing Services Details ISBN1737698609 Author Curt Simons Pages 188 Publisher E N S Publishing Series The M.
