The Isle of the Lost

The Isle of the Lost  by Melissa De La Cruz

“You are a disappointment” said Maleficent to her  daughter Mal. This is a quote from  The Isle of the Lost. Once I started this book i couldn’t stop! These four villains Maleficent, Cruella De Vil, Evil Queen, and Jafar now have kids. Mal daughter of Maleficent, the evilest, Carlos son of Cruella De Vil the smartest, Evie daughter of Evil Queen the pretty one, and Jay son of Jafar the clever one all set out on a mission, (to get the dragons eye)! When it came to this part I couldn’t stop reading!

These four are stuck in the isle of the lost!Their own island just for villains with no magic. Because of the dome they can’t get out! They have to go on a mission to look for the dragon's eye (because of Carlos's machine that shot a hole through the dome some magic came from Oradon. The dragon's eye sparked to life!) This author is my hero and is awesome!

All the villain’s kids have to work together to find the dragon’s eye will they proceed? I couldn’t stop reading this book, it’s one of the best books I have ever read and I think that everyone should read it!

I think that Melissa De La Cruz is trying to tell the readers that even if someone is mean or a bully they can always change their personality and work together! You shouldn’t be afraid of that person, stand up for yourself and try to be their friend! (Maybe something happened to them so they want others to feel bad.)

I LOVE this book because it’s like history it is the villain’s kids and what they want in their life and what they want to do. This book is a little advanced so I would recommend readers 8 years old and up. This book has such descriptive words, you can picture all of the images it’s like a picture book!
