Branches books help readers grow!<\/p>\n<p>The time has come to fight for the enchanted land of Perodia! Tag, Skyla, and Blaze call on their friends to help them in the battle against the powerful vulture Thorn. Blaze will finally learn how to use the magical Ember Stone&#8230; but will its magic be strong enough to defeat Thorn and his army of spies? Get ready for an epic battle in this newest installment of The Last Firehawk!<\/p>\n<p><strong>{My thoughts} \u2013 <\/strong> Tag, Skyla and Blaze are up against their biggest battle with Thorn yet. Thorn is close to defeating them and taking over all of Perdia! It is up to the three friends and all the friends they have made on their journeys to put the Ember Stone back together in order to help them in defeating Thorn. <\/p>\n<p>Will they be able to defeat him? Is this a battle they can win? Do they have enough friends to help them? I don&#8217;t know, only time will tell. In the meantime they are doing everything they can in order to help keep Thorn, his spies and the Shadow at bay. <\/p>\n<p>I really enjoy how the text blends so nicely together in these adventure books. They are so much fun to read and are quick paced. They give you plenty of time to get to know the characters and their many personalities. This is by far one of my favorite beginner reader series. It is really high up there on list along with Owl Diaries! Although that one is by a different author! I look forward to reading more books from this author and illustrator in the very near future. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Conclusion:<\/strong> 5 Star Rating. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature-300x114.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"114\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-9555\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature-300x114.png 300w, http:\/\/www.zapkodemarie.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/signature.png 329w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{Synopsis} \u2013 This series is part of Scholastic&#8217;s early chapter book line, Branches, aimed at newly independent readers.
