Great way to get kids (boys esp.) to read!Feb 15, 2010
As both the mom of a 6-year-old boy and a high school English teacher, I was FRUSTRATED with finding materials my son would pick up and read on his own. When he found this series he wasn't quite ready for true chapter books, but he was well beyond the typical "leveled" reader. This series has filled a nice gap for him. He loves, loves, LOVES the Zelda video games, and he has devoured this series of books. He found the first one in a book store on vacation last summer, and we read it with him. He read it to himself a second time, then begged for the next in the series. He has now read all 9 that are available -- and he has read them all himself! I can't stress how thrilled I am to see him successfully entertaining himself with (gasp!) a book. While I wouldn't call this great children's literature, I will say it builds confidence and expands vocabulary.

Wonderful!Aug 28, 2009
This entire series of books is a lot of fun to read- my five-year-old son loves everything that has to do with the Legend of Zelda! He enjoys looking at the pictures in the books on his own and having me read the story to him. A word of caution: there is the occasional "bad word" in a few of these books. I just censor out words I don't approve of since he cannot read on his own yet.

As good as the gameMay 13, 2009
You'll enjoy this book if you liked the game it's based on. It offers more character depth than the game itself, as well as a different yet interesting plot that (kinda) sticks to the story of the Game Boy Color game.
As for the drawings, you'll love every single one of them. I highly recommend it.
