When author, Tina McFadden, contacted us about her new book, Elffolk and the Crystal Caves of Atlantis, I was honored at the privilege of reading it to my children before it was released. I jumped at the chance, and have to say, my family and I LOVED the book!
My children were captivated by elves, Nissa and Enna, and their adventures through an enchanted world filled with fantasy and even a talking cat, named Mica, who by the way, is my oldest son’s favorite character.
If you’re looking for a whimsical tale to whet your children’s appetites for fantasy fiction novels, you HAVE to have this book. The imagery of both the world and its characters is simply spell-binding and the story is loaded with the inspiring message that challenges aren’t barriers, they’re obstacles which can be overcome.

A Reader Asks:
My son is 2 weeks old and the nights are really rough. It doesn’t seem to matter what I do, I can’t put him down for 10 minutes without him becoming fussy. People told me my the first month or so would hard, but I had no idea how true that is until now. I need some sleep BAD. Why is my newborn so fussy at night?
Jessi Says:
Wow. I’ve been there, mama. Three times.
The nights were so rough the first few weeks, I wondered how anyone could possibly want to have more than one baby. Why would you put yourself through such torture more than once? I even broke down and called my mom in the middle of the night a couple times, bawling my eyes out. I frequently asked her why she would subject herself to two more children after living through the first. It’s nothing short of masochism.
