Descendants 3: The Villain Kids' Guide for New VKs

by Tina McLeef, Walt Disney Company

The newest addition to the line of hit Descendants books like Mal's Spell Book and Mal's Spell Book 2 , the Villain Kids' Guide for New VKs builds upon the Auradon world, mythology, and magic of the Descendants franchise.




When King Ben tells Evie she can bring four new Villain Kids to Auradon, Evie, Mal, Jay, and Carlos return to the Isle of the Lost to spread the news. After receiving hundreds of applications, they accept Dizzy, granddaughter of Lady Tremaine; Celia, daughter of Dr. Facilier; and Squeaky and Squirmy, the twin sons of Smee.




To help these new VKs acclimate to life on Auradon, the original VKs put together this guide book of everything you need to know about life at Auradon Prep.

They tried to make it like Disney Descendants: Secrets of Auradon Prep: Insider's Handbook and other books but it's not the same...

I think pages are wasted with big font writings. So much more information could've been fit.

Es muy bueno y te enseña varias cosas que en las películas no

Me encanto aprender mas sobre Auradon y sus lugares (Sobre todo porque pienso hacer un fic de Descendientes) y lo mas importante del Libro ¡Tiene un mapa >:D! el mapa es hermoso, grande y colorido, si bien no me enseña absolutamente todo Auradon y cada tienda sigue siendo igual de genial, y Leer las historias de los chicos sobre como fue para ellos estar en Auradon después de estar toda su vida en la isla de los perdidos fue genial, también me gusto mucho la carta de Squeaky y Squirmy, admito que Dizzy me parece muy tierna y adorable y que se convirtió en uno de mis personajes favs junto con Mal, Evie y Lonnie >:D.

It was a fun and cute read! :) I liked hearing all the VK's perspectives and all about their class and activities.
I did not like the two pages on fortune telling but I just skipped those!!
A fun read for all Descendants fans!! :)

This book is a combination of a travel/manners/customs, etc, guide to the United States of Auradon and notes by a number of the main characters. I won't way what else is also in here in case you are someone who has never seen one of these movies (I have daughters so have seen them, not that every mother of daughters my age has, but my kids were late to the TV world). The book makes the most sense if you have seen the film and most definitely has at least one major spoiler for the second movie (as you can see, this is to go with the third, but it's better to have seen the movie first). You don't have to have read the companion novels that go before and in between the films, but that doesn't hurt. This book gives you more of an insider's view (as in inside the characters).

Of course it lays Disney's messages to kids on thick, but I am sure that for young children (mostly girls as I understand it) in the target audience it doesn't seem so thick.

Descendants is a favorite in our house so it was exciting to find this additional text. Unlike the movie, it reads more like a high school scrapbook or multi-user diary with various characters chiming in about day to day activities, character based likes and dislikes and even some observations that weren't obvious from the movie. The writing is not typed so it takes a little bit decoding but helped that helped my reluctant reader learn some new skills identifying letters and words. Although it was written on a level higher than she usually attempts, my little one was so fascinated by the special world she fell in love with, she worked hard to read this one.

En realidad son tres estrellas y media, pero Goodreads no deja poner medios y no creo que merezca cuatro.
Es un libro bastante entretenido si eres fan, y tiene bastante información interesante. Pero en algunos momentos me ha aburrido. Además de que me sentía "fuera de lugar" ya que se supone que es narrado por los cuatro protagonistas de las películas (Mal, Evie, Jay y Carlos) y no sentía que el libro fuese narrado por ellos, no sentía que los personajes de las películas estuvieran hablando. Sentía que eran más finatiles (por decirlo así) y no eran ellos mismos.
No se puede pedir mucho de un libro como este, pero en fin, es entretenido, recomendado.

Esta bueno no para 5o 4 pero me entretuvo y le puse tres porque para pasar el tiempo está bien al principio luego cambia por completo hay pocas cosas que revelan lo demás ya lo contó la película así que yo me quedé como "eso es todo" no hay nada más no sé para mí fue así
