Livvy heads to Australia to visit her grandmother. She remembers something interesting about her last visit, but she cannot quite remember what it is until she arrives. Livvy is reunited with her magical creature friend, Bob. Together, they are on a quest to figure out who Bob is and why he has been stuck here for so long.

Evaluation

Though not a huge fan of fantasy fiction, I found this particular book to be completely beautiful. The storyline was fantasy, yes but also very much realistic in regards to emotions, friendship and characterization. Bob is so sweet and has such a zest for life. Livvy is just trying to make sense of her new surroundings while learning that friendship is probably one of the most important parts of life. Though Bob is on a quest to figure out where he came from, Livvy also learns much about herself throughout this process. She learns to take risks, she becomes brave and she learns what it means to sacrifice for a friend. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is up for a little bit of magic, a lot of love and great suspense as the storyline is quite unpredictable.
