""The highly pixilated art reflects the distinctive animation-style of the game and looks almost like screen grabs, which will only endear it more to young readers who love to play Minecraft. The book reads like the first volume of a continuing adventure and will leave kids wanting more.""—Booklist ""One of the few books that has kept my 10 year olds attention. My ten year old is not a big fan of reading. That being said, he has not put these Minecraft books down. At first I was afraid he was only using them as picture books, but he has been telling us the full story so I know he is reading them. I would recommend to anyone who has a kid that enjoys Minecraft."" —Amanda Cochran, Amazon customer (5 Stars) ""Oh my gosh, my nine yr old son LOVES these books! Read #3 in one day (they are comic book style, so not like a chapter book) but for him it's a big deal!! This is my second book to buy and I will probably end up buying the whole set!"" —Whit, Amazon customer (5 Stars) ""My daughter picked this book out early in first grade. It is still her favorite book towards the end of 2nd grade. The book has been through a lot. She takes it everywhere. I keep pushing other books on her, but she always goes back to this one. She has read it through several times. Just now seeing there is a whole series! Book #2 will be coming her way!"" —Penny Lynn, Amazon customer (5 Stars) ""Got this for my 8 year old who loves Minecraft, and she finished it in an hour! She has read it a few more times since then & always mentions how much she enjoys reading it. Great purchase."" —Katie, Amazon customer (5 Stars) ""My son loves his new book.
