Born on Eventide, Morrigan Crow is a 'cursed child', blamed for every misfortune and destined to die on her eleventh birthday. But just before midnight strikes, the mysterious Jupiter North appears, offering Morrigan another choice: journey with him to Nevermore. In this magical world, she moves into Jupiter's awesome, ever-changing hotel and enters the tria… Objectively, this had all if the ingredients for a great story, but I couldn’t really connect with it. I found myself quite bored even if the adventure was thrilling. i think that this book would have been enough as an adventure story with alle the fun places the train can travel too and have that be the book.It's not everyday a train passes through the downstairs of your house with little creatures working as all different kind of things. Suzy is a normal, hardworking school girl who realizes that something isn't right, she hears something downstairs in the middle of the night and finds something unusual. This book is very imaginative and there are so many unexpected surprises. I'd probably give this 3 and a half stars if Goodreads would let me...but I have to settle for a 3 cuz it won't. Also, if I hadn't already read Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow and Wundersmith: The Calling of Morrigan Crow this year, I probably would have enjoyed this one a bit more. I feel like Nevermoor & Wundersmith spoiled me because I loved them so much....like Harry Potter levels of love...and that's pretty tough competition for a book like The Train to Impossible Places. Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments When Suzy hears a strange rattling noise in the middle of the night, she creeps downstairs to find a train roaring through her house.

Even though it was fun to read, I have to admit that there were some scenes that made me sad. P.G. Bell is out there reminding me that instant messaging is not always a good thing; people who work in Postal Delivery would probably lose their job and income. If I look at children’s eyes, I think P.G Bell was trying to tell his younger audiences that there were times where we relied on letters to send a word to someone. And that’s a good thing! The Strangeworlds Travel Agency meets Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow with a splash of Polar Express This book was so much fun to read. Extremely fast paced and full of adventure with places that are odd and fun. I love the characters so much. The bear was funny, the conductor was great and the postal worker I fell in love with and poor Fletch. You'll have to read to find out about Fletch and what happens to him.Suzy thinks she's an ordinary girl, but in the middle of the night she hears a strange noise, sees some weird flashes and sooner than she can realise she is SWEPT aboard a train passing through her very own home! She will soon discover that the odd train run by trolls is actually a magical delivery express for The Union of Impossible Places. And she is on that train to help them deliver their parcels. If you ever need a middle grade book that is full-steam imagination and non-stop adventure, then this is THE book for you. But this is no ordinary train. This is the magical delivery express for The Union of Impossible Places. I love a middle-grade book to build up a heavy based run of fantasy books. The Train to Impossible Places was definitely exactly what I needed.

I'm struggling in being decisive with a star rating for this one. In some areas, I really want to give this book at least a three star rating because of how magical and unique the storyline was. However, in contrast, there were moments that I felt the story became too cluttered with too much action that I lost my focus on what was happening. But when this impossible train comes roaring through Suzy’s living room, her world turns upside down. After sneaking on board, Suzy suddenly finds herself Deputy Post Master aboard the train, and faced with her first delivery―to the evil Lady Crepuscula. This book is full of excitement, adventure and friendship, and would suit lower key stage two best. After reading this myself I was certain that my year 3/4 class would also love it. We are now about half way through and all 25 of my reluctant readers have given it a 10/10 so far - a first for any book we have looked at together. The plot is wonderfully creative and P.G. Bell uses a fantastic range of vocabulary, which I have found is great for supporting the development of pupils' own vocabulary. Sure signs that the creative wells are running dry at last, the Captain’s ninth, overstuffed outing both recycles a villain (see Book 4) and offers trendy anti-bullying wish fulfillment.Author Guy Bass introduces SCRAP, about one robot who tried to protect the humans on his planet against an army of robots.
