I was born singing. Most babies cry. I sang an aria. Or so I believe. I have no one to tell me the truth of it. I was abandoned when I was a month old, left at the Featherbed Inn in the Ayorthaian village of Amonta. It was January 12th of the year of Thunder Songs.
The fairy Lucinda has once again given a dreadful gift. This time it's a mysterious magical mirror. The gift is disastrous when it falls into the hands of Aza, who never looks in a mirror if she can help it. In the Kingdom of Ayortha, Aza is most definitely not the fairestof them all. Many spurn her. Many scoff at her. She keeps out of sight.
But in a land of singers, Aza has her own gift, one she's come by without fairy intervention: a voice that can do almost anything, a voice that captivates all who hear it. In Ontio Castle, merry Prince Ijori is drawn to it, and vain Queen Ivi wants to use it for her own ends. Queen Ivi would do anything to remain the fairest in the land.
In this spellbinding tale filled with humor, adventure, romance, and song, Newbery Honor author Gail Carson Levine invites you to join Aza as she discovers how exquisite she truly is.

ReplyDeleteThis was not working, this is what I remember putting in yesterday, Ally I am not as far as you. For question number three the book said that her brother, Yarry, said that she was so ugly. My questions form last time were 1. Is she ever going to be beautiful? 2. Did the customers ever come back? 3. Why did they decide to keep her? 4. How did she feel about staying out of sight? My question for today is 1. How are the people going to react to her at the wedding? 2. Is she going to show her gift? 3. When will she go home? 4. what will the king think of her?
ReplyDeleteNatalie I'm not as far as you but these are my questions.
ReplyDelete1. Did the Duchess like their inn?
2. Why was the Duchess so mean?
3. Why did the Duchess have so many cats?
I don't want to spoil it but the duchess did kind of like the inn I think because later on she said that she would be back to the inn. and I don't know why she had so many cats.
ReplyDelete1. Does the prince like Aza?
ReplyDelete2. Why Did Ivi get jealous?
3. Does Ivi really love the king?
This is from yesterday, the prince really does like Aza and Ivi doesn't love the king for him but for his love, on page 85 when the king gets hurt she cries and say now who will love me then Aza says in her mind that Ivi is not crying because she loves him but because he loves her.
ReplyDeleteThis is from today , I loved the book, it was very good but I say that the book was okay on the beginning because it was a little slow to me. But once I got to the middle or a little before the middle of the book it was great.
