** ["Shelby and Shauna Kitt and the Dimensional Holes" won "Best First Chapter Book" in the 2012 Children's Literary Classics Awards, together with a gold award in the categories "fantasy pre-teen" and "science-fiction pre-teen." The novel was also an award-winning finalist in the 2012 International Book Awards, in the categories young adult and science-fiction]. **

Who would want to have tea with mushrooms, when it’s a hundred degrees and humid out? As Shelby and Shauna Kitt find out, quite a few people. These are, of course, people from Miriax, a planet in a different dimension where nothing and no one is anything like what the thirteen year-old brother and sister twins expect. On Miriax, lilac tea is served with explosive mushrooms, agitex leaves cure motion sickness, stick insects patrol the jungle, and library books carefully choose their readers, refusing to leave the shelf for anyone else. And, if you’re not careful, the walls spit on you.

Shelby and Shauna's lives change drastically when planet Miriax recruits them to seal a dimensional hole that allows Klodians - nasty aliens - to travel to Earth. In order to succeed in their mission, Shelby and Shauna discover skills they never thought they possessed, make friends they never expected to have, and face enemies they never imagined existed.

Shelby and Shauna Kitt are kids with special abilities and an abundance of "positive energy." It is this unique energy that makes them the most suitable people on the planet to save not only our world but also the parallel world of Miriax from the Klodians who inhabit a third parallel world. Dimensional holes have opened between Miriax and Earth, and between Earth and Klodius. They must be closed and Shelby and Shauna are called on to help. These young heroes are engaging and likeable. The adult characters may sometimes seem childish or simplistic to older readers but I think younger readers would find them believable.
This wonderfully imaginative book is sure to appeal to Middle Grade readers. It's a bit Little Prince, a bit Wizard of Oz, a bit Alice in Wonderland and a lot of fun. What I like especially are the lighthearted tone and positive mood that are carried throughout the book. The plot is strong enough to carry your interest and the tone is just silly enough that you know not to take it too seriously. This combination makes for a very enjoyable reading experience.

I read this book last summer, and ever since doing so it's been firmly in my memory. One of my favourite books now! Here's a review I wrote for my blog at the time:

I'm not too sure where to start the review because this book was, literally, out of this world! I'm not normally interested in science-fiction, but the concept is so original, unique and intricate that it was hard for me not to get swept away! I'll try to summarise the plot for you, but bear with me because it might sound complicated!

The story is about three planets that exist in three different dimensions, all within a close distance of each other - Earth, Miriax and Klodius. They are each invisible and inaccessible to one another until these dimensional holes open up; causing a life-threatening imbalance between them. It's up to a bunch of humans recruited by the aliens of Miriax to restore this balance and save the planets. The task especially falls on twins Shelby and Shana Kitt, who seemingly possess supernatural powers of the most useful potency.

Did you get that? Don't worry if you didn't, because in the book the author explains each component with such fantastic flow that it's difficult to get lost. Saying this, there were parts that did confuse me a little, but nothing that prevented me from straying far from the plot. The description is excellent - you really get to know the planets of Miriax and Klodius, how they work, and why they're so vital to each other's existence. The plot itself and the characters that form it are full of suspense - I was dying to find out who was actually evil, who was good and what would happen next! It's no doubt a nail-biter of the very best kind. I just love a story where you can't figure out who's the good guy and who's the bad, and in this story it truly could be anyone.

So, do you like some suspense, and a well told, unique story with clearly imagined new worlds? Then this may just be the book for you. The author told me that it's suitable for upper mid-level readers (probably due to the fact that a lot of the characters, including the hero and heroine, are teenagers), but this really will appeal to a broad demographic. Something to get your hands on and experience first-hand, for sure!

Marchesi is a phenomenal storyteller, roping the reader into this wonderful tale of other dimensions and species. Though the story revolves around two thirteen-year-old protagonists, I'd have to say that this is a book for everyone. Parents can read it to their children, MG and YA readers will eat it up, and adults will enjoy the premise, themes, and overall fun this book has to offer.

Not only does this novel have a very interesting storyline, but Marchesi's writing capabilities also shine throughout the entire tale. I am always excited when I start a new novel and, three pages in, note to myself that "this book is really well written." It is few authors that have me singing their praises that early on in the novel, so I must say, this novel is very well done. Although the novel is somewhat long, with the protagonists being whisked from place to place, dimension to dimension, it keeps the reader's attention throughout, which is a feat in and of itself, as many authors lose their reader when so much is happening within the text.

Marchesi has a truly vivid imagination, and her explanations throughout the novel were really interesting. I am in awe of the sheer amount of imagination Marchesi brings to her story, tweaking it just so, making the reader experience it and not just read about it. I highly recommend this novel to all readers, and am hoping for a sequel!! Four stars!

When Shauna and Shelby Kitt are "drafted" to save Earth and another good planet Miriax from the evil Klodians, they have no "earthly" idea what they've gotten themselves into. In this young teen adventure, the author has created an exciting world filled with space aleins, evil Klodians, frightening space ghosts, healers, stitching spiders, giant bats and many other fun and quirky details and situations that you might expect from a story involving multiple dimensions. The characters are well developed--you care for the good guys and really hate the bad the guys--and the plot twists and turns made me feel like i was riding in that space ship at times. No motion sickness for me though. Great book and a fun read. I would recommend Shelby and Shauna Kitt and the Dimensional Holes for any reader ten on up to..oh say a hundred. In other words any reader with an imagination!
