Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy

Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy is a book about a young girl named Ophelia Jane Worthington-Whittard who doesn’t believe in anything that can’t be proven by science. After her mother died, Ophelia’s dad gets a new job as working in a strange museum in a city where it never stops snowing. On her first day going to the museum, Ophelia discovers a boy in a prison that has been locked away for over 300 years. He is a prisoner of Her Majesty, the Snow Queen. The boy has been waiting for a long time for Ophelia’s help. As Ophelia goes on a great adventure to rescue the boy, everything she believes is tested. Along the way, she’s getting nearer into saving the world.

This book is a modern-day fairy-tale about the power of friendship, courage, love, and the importance of never giving up. If you enjoy reading these kind of books, this is the right book for you to read. I recommend this book from 8-13 years of age. By: Raheal Mengistu
