Blog 6: Anticipating Redwall

I have never read Redwall before now because I had never heard of it. My best friend is a 5th grade teacher in Franklin, and when I told her this was our second book she literally started jumping up and down. She said that Brian Jacques was her FAVORITE (she was talking in caps so I had to write it that way) author when she was in middle school, and she still has the books on her bookshelf in her duplex. After her reaction, I can’t wait to read the book. If it is something she still keeps out on her bookshelf at age 22, then it has to be amazing.
I also read the reviews on Amazon.com to see how people who bought the book liked it. Almost everyone said it was a classic good versus evil book that is great for any age. The only thing that I am a bit worried about is the mice and rats factor. I am terrified of them! I actually avoid the whole section in Petsmart because they freak me out. I am going to try not to think of that when I am reading though. I’m off to start the book, and hopefully find a notable moment.
