![]() ![]() I tracked down Jonathan on the heels of finishing this exceptionally good novel to chat about Sophie, storybooks, his writing, and more. ![]() This all kicks off a grand adventure for Sophie, Peter, and a whole cast of well-crafted characters in a story celebrating the written word. When Sophie is given a copy of the magical Book of Who, she becomes a target for Inquisitor Prigg, whose plan is to rid the town of nonsense, especially storybooks, on Pyre Day. ![]() Her world changes dramatically when she learns that she, an unassuming bookmender, is a Storyguard, as was her mother before her. Even if you haven’t read (but especially if you have) Jonathan Auxier’s Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes (2011), you’ll want to pick up a copy of Sophie Quire and the Last Storyguard, the latest novel from Auxier, during which Peter meets feisty, brave Sophie. ![]()
