Speech On Inkheart By Cornelia Funke
Inkheart ~ by Cornelia Funke
“Dare to read aloud?” These words made absolutely no sense to me when I first read the back of this book.

Dustfinger had went after them in an attempt to stop them after they had drove away. A day or so later Dustfinger had came back with no luck. Supposedly Mo had switched a different book with the inkheart. Which at the time Capricorn and his men had not known, but this had scared Elinor and Meggie. This had given Meggie thoughts of running away and trying to find her father. At the time they had no idea it was Capricorns men, other than Mo himself and
