The Name at the End of the Ladder

Description

"Win the game to choose your name and free the players who remain." Twelve-year-old September is determined to choose an adventurous name for herself from the Name Bank - not like all her friends, who are named after flowers or trees. Soon she discovers that she has no choice, unless she wins an ancient and mysterious board game. And every roll of the dice leads her further into danger.

Elena de Roo is the author of The Rain Train and the Ophelia Wild Series.

With mysterious voices, a strange boy and a severe case of sweet tooth, September takes you on a rollercoaster of an adventure. While the story is slow to start, it's worth hanging in there for lift-off. -- Kids' Book Review * Kids' Book Review * Highly recommended ...
