Inkheart By: Cornelia Funke

I recently finished reading a book called Inkheart. Inkheart is about a girl named Meggie and her father Mo.
Maggie's mother and two cats were trapped in a book while Mo was reading aloud. Then three people, Capricorn, Basta, and Dustfinger, came out of the book. The book that Mo was reading aloud from was called Inkheart, and a few years later The evil Capricorn, and his worker Basta, tried to take Mo and the book to have  Mo read Capricorn, Basta, and Dustfinger back into the book. Dustfinger was Capricorn's bait the whole time, but turned on Capricorn when he took Mo, Meggie, and Meggie's Aunt Elinor prisoners. Dustfinger got them out safely and they went away from Capricorn's Village and traveled to Inkheart's author Fenoglio. Elinor returned home instead of going to Fenoglio's house and found that all of her books were destroyed. I won't spoil the ending so you'll just have to read the book yourself!

Kristen, you did very well but, is the girl called Meggie or Maggie? Also, I pretty sure you kind of said part of the ending.
