INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 Alfonso, who can perform amazing feats during his frequent sleepwalking episodes, discovers that he is the fated savior of a kingdom of people hidden in the Ural Mountains who function while asleep. A challenging journey, an accumulation of variously odd characters and settings, and a lot of improbable problem-solving make for an entertaining but overlong middle-grade fantasy.
