ReviewsValente's Fairyland is terrible and beautiful--with a circus made out of stationery, a city populated with photographic negatives, and glimpses of Septembers and Saturdays past and future just a few of the strange wonders introduced in this volume., "Valente's Fairyland is terrible and beautiful-with a circus made out of stationery, a city populated with photographic negatives, and glimpses of Septembers and Saturdays past and future just a few of the strange wonders introduced in this volume." - The Horn Book * "Like September, readers may leave their hearts in Fairyland." - Kirkus Reviews , starred review * "As usual, Valente enlightens readers with pearly gleams of wisdom about honesty, identity, free will, and growing up. September often worries who she should be and what path she should follow, but the lovely truth, tenderly told, is that it's all up to her. Thanks to a dramatic cliffhanger ending, there is sure to be more empowerment and whimsy to come." - Booklist , starred review Praise for previous books:"A glorious balancing act between modernism and the Victorian Fairy Tale, done with heart and wisdom." -Neil Gaiman, Newbery Awardwinning author of The Graveyard Book "September is a clever, fun, stronghearted addition to the ranks of bold, adventurous girls. Valente's subversive storytelling is sheer magic." -Tamora Pierce, author of the Immortals series "A mad, toothsome romp of a fairy tale-full of oddments, whimsy, and joy." -Holly Black, author of Zombies vs. Unicorns and the Spiderwick Chronicles "When I saw that this book reminds me simultaneously of E. Nesbit, James Thurber, and the late Eva Ibbotson, I don't mean to take anything away from its astonishing originality. It's a charmer from the first page, managing the remarkable parlay of being at once ridiculously funny and surprisingly suspenseful. Catherynne Valente is a find, at any age!" -Peter S.
