The Name at the End of the Ladder

The Name at the End of the Ladder

Retell

In the last four chapters September started to turn to gold because the name she got at her second appointment meant gold but a trader helped her out and she stopped turning gold. Also thanks to her school library she figured out that the combination she needed for the lock on the ladder at square one had nothing to do with maths and that the answer had something to do with the alphabetical order of the numbers. Because August's name gave him the powers of a magician he was able to roll the number he wanted so that he would land on September's square so she would be sent back to square on and she would be able to open the lock and climb up to square 100. Although the riddle she had to figure out was different she unlocked it, climbed up to square 100 and chose her name which freed everyone that had been trapped in the game. September's dad and the citizens tried to save their children and they succedded. It turned out in the end September chose the name September Tuesday (which was her old name) and August chose the name Oak after seeing September's dad Oak in action.

* Why did you decide not to change September's name?

Review 

I thought this book was quite good and rate it 9 and a half out of ten.
