JULU BY JAN ANDEREGG

Julu by Jan Anderegg
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Welcome to Jirvania, the enchanting realm of Julu's by Jan Anderegg, where stories flourish like precious "story pearls."

In Jirvania, muse faeries gather these pearls and deliver them to writers, musicians, and poets in our world. At the center lies The Great Library, a portal to different times and places, allowing you to step into stories and experience them firsthand. Here, homework transforms into adventure, and imagination knows no limits.

Meet Jack Lemoine, an eleven-year-old from Mystic, Connecticut, who discovers an opal dragon egg, revealing a world filled with dragons, unicorns, and faeries—alongside witches, ogres, and monsters who want him dead. He is prophesied to save Jirvania with the help of a magical opal dragon named Julu.

As Julu hatches, Jack and his friend Mia are sent back in time. Through Julu’s stories, they learn that family, friendship, and love connect us all, and that hope often hides in unexpected places.

Why You’ll Love It:

🐉 Julu blends magic, adventure, and heartwarming moments effortlessly.
🐉 The opal dragon symbolizes resilience and hope.
🐉 Jan Anderegg’s vivid writing brings Jirvania to life.

My Take: Reading Julu filled me with enchantment. The mix of fantasy and timeless themes—friendship, courage, and storytelling—left me in awe. And Julu? She’s not just a dragon; she’s a symbol of endless possibilities.
