David and
the Phoenix A wonderful read-aloud book
Ages 8-12
"Many years ago, a book taught a young boy that imagination and wonder have
wings. It was this book - David and the Phoenix - antdthat young boy was me. It
was an experience I never plan to recover from." New York Times best selling
author David Weber.
David knew that one should be
prepared for anything when one climbs a mountain, but he never dreamed
what he would find that June morning on a mountain ledge.
There stood an enormous bird, with a head like an eagle, a neck like a
swan and a scarlet crest. The most astonishing thing was that the bird
had an open book on the ground and was reading from it!
This was David's first sight of the fabulous Phoenix and the beginning
of a pleasant and profitable partnership. The Phoenix found a great
deal lacking in David's education -- he flunked questions like "How do
you tell a true from a false Unicorn?" -- and undertook to supplement
it with a practical education, an education that would be a
preparation for Life. The education had to be combined with offensive
and defensive measures against a Scientist who was bent on capturing
the Phoenix, but the two projects together involved exciting and
hilarious adventures for boy and bird.
A wonderful read-aloud book, adventurous and very funny, with much of
the magic as well as the humor of the fantastic.
