The Thirteenth Kids Need to Read Charity Auction comes to you with a fabulous offering – a package of goodies directly from author Frank Beddor! This set would be a magical prize with just the first item – a hardcover copy of The Looking Glass Wars, signed by the author. Nevertheless, there is so much more! This is a treasure trove for your teen reader! In addition to the keepsake book, the package includes Seeing Redd and Hatter M bookmarks, a complete set of Cardsoldier War stickers, a Cardsoldier War postcard, and a Looking Glass Wars removable tattoo.
The Looking Glass Wars, Mr. Beddor’s first novel, is a New York Times best seller. Seeing Redd, the second book in The Looking Glass Wars trilogy, was released in August 2007. Mr. Beddor also co-wrote Hatter M, a graphic novel based on the world of The Looking Glass Wars. In his books, Mr. Beddor imagines that Wonderland really exists, and is the source of all creativity and invention. Anyone familiar with Lewis Carroll’s novels will delight in the wordplay, puns, and sly references in every chapter.
