I was rather intrigued by the concept of book wandering, in that Tilly has the ability to converse with her favourite book characters in real life as well as travel into a book world and be a part of the stories. The synopsis of Tilly and the Bookwanderer was what initially pulled me in. So do I also feel the same way about Tilly and the Bookwanderers? In most cases, I can say that the middle grade books I’ve picked up have definitely succeeded on that front. I am still an avid fan of Middle Grade reads, most of the time seeking a fun and easy reading experience. Tilly is determined to solve the mystery of what happened to her mother all those years ago, so she bravely steps into the unknown, unsure of what adventure lies ahead and what dangers she may face. With the help of Anne of Green Gables and Alice in Wonderland. One day Tilly realises that classic children's characters are appearing in the shop through the magic of `book wandering' - crossing over from the page into real life. Like the rest of her family, Tilly loves nothing more than to escape into the pages of her favourite stories. Eleven year-old Tilly has lived above her grandparents' bookshop ever since her mother disappeared shortly after she was born.
