Judging a Book By Its Cover #33: A Kid's Perspective on Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas

Okay, so I totally stole this idea from Sara at Forever 17 Books, who got the idea from an article on Babble called Judging a Book by Its Cover: A 6-year-old Guesses What Classic Novels Are All About.  I just discovered her lovely segment, and I immediately requested forced my own five-year-old daughter Katie to provide me with some of her own cover artwork and then asked her what she thought the book was about.



This week, Katie gave me her take on the following book:

"There's a girl standing outside, and she has swords in her hands." And here, Katie says that she doesn't want to tell me the rest because it's bad, but I urge her on:  "I think she's going to kill a boy with the swords.  And there was a dragon breathing fire."

It may have made her uncomfortable to tell me what she thought of this one, but she still did an excellent job, both with the book's premise and the cover.  She spent more time on this one than she usually does. Wonder if she has any idea how much I loved this story and that's why?  :)  My review should be up next week.

Have you read this book or do you plan to?  What do you think of Katie's guess at the premise?  

Did your little darling create a work of art based on a book this week? If so, be sure to link up with Sara over at Forever 17 Books.
