Summary

Here's a new fantasy adventure series that has young readers dreaming for more!

Fourteen-year-old Leven Thumps (a.k.a. "Lev") is no ordinary boy, but that's exactly what Sabine and his dark shadows want him to believe. They know the fate of the world and the dreams of all mankind can be saved by one boy with a powerful gift, one he has yet to understand or control. Enter Clover, a funny foot-high sidekick; Winter, a girl who can freeze things; and Geth, the rightful heir to the dream world of Foo. Three transplants with only one mission: to retrieve Leven and save Foo.

Can this unique band of travelers help Lev overcome his doubt and convince him to do what only he can do? Will Leven find the Gateway in time? Will fate make the difference?

This is the first book of Leven Thumps and his extraordinary journey to a magical place that can no longer be hidden. Welcome to Foo.

New to Foo? Don't miss the second book in the Leven Thumps series, Leven Thumps and the Whispered Secret.

My boys loved it. 7 and 11 years

My boys loved this story and so did I. Great as thrilling and captivating without being too scary or gruesome for young ears. Funny and charming

narrator lets it down

this is a lovely story, but the narrator lets it down. He sounds like he is trying waaaay to hard to make it interesting, rather than letting the story speak for itself. almost like he speaks every line in a tone that should amaze you. gets annoying.

Just couldn’t listen......

I’m very sorry but after about an hour I just had to give up on this one. Loved the idea of the story, but just couldn’t listen to the narrator. To me it sounded like he was reading to a primary school class. I will probably get the book on kindle and read it myself.
