title: Missing: Lessons from Fiori - Book 2 (Volume 2)
author:  Peggy M McAloon 
description: "The book is ever-tinged with enough optimism that even the darkest moment has a light to it. This is in no small part due to the wonderful young lead in Elle, who shows a lovely brightness at all times. It's a wonderful tale that understands its reader base and as a fantasy fan with an interest in all things magical, I find myself wanting to see more of this series in the future." ~Self-Publishing Review, 4 1/2 Stars<br /><br /><span>"Missing is the second book in the Lessons From Fiori series written by Peggy M. McAloon and Anneka Rogers.</span><span>Lessons From Fiori is an absolutely engrossing and enchanting read, with believable characters from a different dimension to our own. Mother Blue and the Fiorins were so easy to visualize while reading this magical tale, and it was impossible not to fall in love with them. The sickening threat of having your child kidnapped in a public area is every mother's worst nightmare. Missing portrays every conceivable emotion in a gut-wrenching scenario that brings people together in strength while uniting unlikely allies. The concept of 'human guides' working with miniature guardian angels to keep our children safe is literary gold. Peggy M. McAloon and Anneka Rogers both show imagination which knows no bounds, in order to bring a story of 'fairy tale meets reality' to the reader. I thoroughly enjoyed the second book from the Lessons From Fiori series and plan to seek out the other titles in the series for my own library at home. I recommend this book to all readers 12 years and older who enjoy mystery, drama and intrigue served up with a huge dollop of fantasy, magic and love."</span><span>Reviewed By Rosie Malezer for Readers' Favorite - 5 Stars</span><span></span><br /><br />"Elle Burton: Missing, the second book in the Elle Burton series by Peggy Mound McAloon picks up the action from the first book. Elle and Jimmy, the reformed bully, need to rescue Elle's brother, all while keeping the (dimension of) Fiori a secret. With strong characterization and a plot line which is about much more than the rescue, this is a terrific book for children as it deals with common issues of childhood without interfering with a rollercoaster of a plot." Alex McGilvery of Celtic Frog Reviews
