Has it ever occurred to you that there might be another version to Peter Pan’s story? Would you want to see Captain Hook’s point of view? If so, then you will truly enjoy this lovely short read: Captain Hook: Villain or Victim by Ellwyn Autumn.

I have always loved Peter Pan and this fairy tale is without a doubt my favourite fairy tale. The world is unique, and the story is amazing. Maybe Peter Pan was the reason I was always so in love with England. I will never know.

When Ellwyn introduced me to her book, I knew I had to have it. I had to read it and find out what Captain Hook’s story might be. The book is quite short, but full of adventures throughout. We follow the journalist, David J. Locke, who sails through the seas searching for Captain Hook. When he finally gets a clue, he dives into the story of Captain Hook and discovers truths that have never been told before.

Even though there were times when the Captain Hook’s story seems like a side-story to David J. Locke’s adventures, it was a pleasure to read it, and I read it in one sitting. The book keeps you interested throughout, and the fiction of the re-telling is quite smart and uniquely thought through. I am very happy that I read this book! I would recommend it to all of you that love retellings and love fairy tales.

A huge thank you to Ellwyn Autumn, for sending me a paperback copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Kamyla Chung and the Creepy Crawlies by Ellwyn Autumn

This colorful children's book starts out with Kamyla and she's heading to bed talking to her dad about creepy crawlies and he reassures her they are not in their house.

Love that the dad gets to put her to bed. Pages and text are very well displayed-you can see white lettering on darker pages and words are highly visible. Love this feature and also on the tablet you can enlarge them if you have vision problems.

She uses her other stuffed animals to help get her to sleep and put her fears away about creepy things.

One night she sees things and actually cries out and her parents come to cmfort her. They call in the experts and he looks high and low for the creepy crawlies hiding places.

Like that he allows her to help also and how he discoers what the problem is and is able to show them all. There are good crawlie things and glad to see they are also highlighted as being good.

Now that the fear is gone there are other fears to take their place. Love also how mother is there to reassure her also. Like all the measures they take to rid the room of creepy things.

Would love to read more from this author as I like how the story is told but life lessons also that are brought to the forefront.

One thing I did not like was such a dark color for main cover. That usually turns me off from even wanting to read a book.

Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
