Review

5 Star Review- Crystal Marcos creates a wonderful cast of unique, exceptional characters that tell the story of "Headache" so very well. I highly recommend this wonderfully well-written book. It is a tale that will keep you smiling well after you finish its pages. -Joy H. for Readers' Favorite

 5 Star Review- Following up her previous volume discussing the heroics of Peter and Lina as they try to protect their hometown from a very persistent villain who has nefarious intent for them. "Headache" is a humorous and much recommended addition to general fiction collections. -Midwest Book Review

From the Author

I am so excited to bring the second book in the BELLYACHE series to my readers! I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Sweet Reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing and FUN!

Headache ~ The Hair-Raising Sequel by Crystal Marcos is highly recommend for those children who love to use their imagination! I have not read Bellyache, but after reading Headache I would not hesitate to read Bellyache.

The story Headache takes place on earth despite the main characters being aliens, which are sweets. No I don't mean sweet as in cool or awesome. I mean sweets as in gum-drops and cup-cakes! LOL! Now for me it took a while for to wrap my head around these walking around and talking in all seriousness of being afraid of humans and our pets. But once you let go of your practical-ness you can actually feel the frightening situations these two characters get in and their very humorous ways they get themselves out of them.

No sooner did I find myself having fun with the story, I was then set in the main dilemma of the chase! The sweets had paired themselves up with some old friends and were preparing themselves for an all out war with the evil, monstrous Rock candy!
How will a couple of little sweets and some nerdy little humans win a war against these merciless hulks? Well I guess you'll have to read it to find out.

Oh and by the way...Children have no problems jumping right into characters with their imaginations As for myself I found it quite refreshing once I unlocked that childhood door. We give 2 thumbs up or if you rather 5 stars to Crystal Marcos, Headache.

4.0 out of 5 stars A delicious sequel
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2013

Headache the Hair-Raising Sequel to Bellyache is a wonderful tale of facing your fears and working together. In this second installment we watch Peter and Lina develop courage to defeat the evil Goaltan drawing on the knowledge and lessons they have learned on their trip to Maple town, along with Nana's memories of her visit to Honeyville. I absolutely love the imagery in this book. I wish I could visit the toy shop, to play around in edible foam, ride one floor up on a pogo stick and sit at a glow-in-the-dark drink bar, to sample a sarparilla drilla, served so cold that it comes with a drill. The Candonite children were adorable and one would have to have great self control not to be tempted to eat one of them. I loved the ending and Papa's new sweet shop is so delightful I wish I could visit it in a certain famous theme park in the future.
A delightfully innocent read that will have you cheering the characters on and wishing you could sample some of the delights along the way.

5.0 out of 5 stars HEADACHE is wonderful story with lessons for children and adults alike.

When HEADACHE: The Hair-Raising Sequel to BELLYACHE was published, I was delighted to continue reading about the adventures of Peter and Lina. This book has more wonderful adventures with the Candonite children from BELLYACHE. Ms. Marcos has a rich imagination and through her storytelling, shares her characters with the reader. This book is another wonderful book for young readers. It is also an excellent book for read aloud time. Whether a youngster can read on their own or not, having a parent read to them is special. The length of chapters and suspense in each, makes this a perfect bedtime book.

This was a cute, adventurous children story. Although I haven't read the first book to this sequel, it provided a glimpse to the generality of what went on. Which was, Peter and Lina were transported to a fantasy candy land called, Maple Town, where they meet and befriend Candonite characters. They had an adventurous experience there. They later return back home. Unbeknownst to Peter and Lina, a couple of their Candonite friends, Joe and Angela, got transported too including the evil Goaltan and his minions, the Peblars. So this is where this book comes in ..Joe and Angela searches for Peter in hopes that he can help them get back home to Maple Town. Then come to find out that the gang (Peter, Lina, Joe, and Angela) will have to work together again to fight Goaltan (and the Peblars). This time around, Peter and Lina's families get involve and we (the readers) find out a secret! The story continues with the journey they all had in the battle and adventure to saving earth and such.

I think young kids will enjoy this series. They'll find fun characters and exciting adventure. Also will learn the value of friendship, family history, and courage.

Oh, Lina and family are Filipino so there's a few Filipino terms. Cool! *I suspect the author and/or someone in her family is Filipino???

Unfortunately, I read this book out of sequence...

It took me a few pages to figure out what was going on and would have been better in sequence. Once the story was under way and I had a firm grip on the candy children from Maple Town and how they came to be in our world, it was a fun read. The characters were vivid, fun and memorable.

This would be a great series to have on a storytellers shelf.

4.0 out of 5 stars She's done it again! Wonderful!
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2012
Peter has just returned from an amazing adventure, and things are now back to normal. Or are they? As Peter heads off to school for an uneventful day, he has no idea the Candonite children Joe and Angela have followed him to his home town, and they aren't the only ones to show up! The adventure continues as the villain they thought they had escaped and hoped to never see again has come to their home town.

Award-winning author Crystal Marcos has done it again. Join Peter and Lina in this wonderful adventure. Filled with fantastic imagery and great characters, you'll read page after page on the edge of your seat to find out how things turn out. Will Peter find the strength to save his friends and family? Will he be able to send Joe and Angela home and the villain back where he belongs? Entertaining and humorous, this wonderful story teaches a great lesson about friendship and standing up to face one's fears.

Overall: Another great children's book from award-winning author Crystal Marcos. Headache picks up right where Bellyache left off. It is a wonderful book that will entertain, amuse, and teach valuable lessons about friendship and overcoming one's fears. Headache should be added to every family's bookshelf. I think it is appropriate for ages seven and up, either for them to read alone or as a read aloud with their parents. I, for one, am hoping that Ms. Marcos has another delicious tale in store for us in the near future.
