Warren the 13th and the Whispering Woods by Tania Del Rio
This sequel to Warren the 13th and the All-Seeing Eye begins soon after the first book s conclusion. Twelve-year-old Warren has learned that his beloved hotel can walk, and now it s ferrying guests around the countryside, transporting tourists to strange and foreign destinations. But when an unexpected detour brings everyone into the dark and sinister Malwoods, Warren finds himself separated from his hotel and his friends and racing after them on foot through a forest teeming with witches, snakes, talking trees, and mind-boggling riddles. Once again, you can expect stunning illustrations and gorgeous design from Will Staehle on every page along with plenty of nonstop action and adventure!
