I quite enjoyed this. It's a refreshing fantasy-adventure tale in that our young, parent-less heroine isn't trying to save the world from the ultimate evil (aren't you getting a little sick of that worn-out plot?) but instead escaping an awful life and having her every wish fulfilled. Until, of course, she realizes that having your every wish fulfilled is never all it's cracked up to be. True, it's a little cheeseball with the moral, but, like I said, I enjoyed it, and I don't doubt that many kiddos will too.
Side note: I honestly thought for a long time that this was a book about a dog named Molly Moon because there's a dog on the cover, but the dog is actually a pug named Petula who (also refreshingly) is pretty much a normal-acting dog and not a talking one.
Additional side note: There's an ice cream shop in Seattle called Molly Moon's that has a dog in its logo. Coincidence? I don't know, but the ice cream there is bomb.

One of my favorite childhood reads!
Llevaba varios años queriendo leer [b:Molly Moon y el increíble libro del hipnotismo|799080|Molly Moon y el increíble libro del hipnotismo|Georgia Byng|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347412490s/799080.jpg|1982773], desde que, estando en el colegio, lo viera por todos lados y algunos amigos me lo recomendaran, pero no había tenido la oportunidad de leerlo hasta ahora y, la verdad, creo que me ha llegado un poco tarde.

Molly lives in a horrible orphanage in England and dreams of greatness. When she finds a hypnotism book, she learns to hypnotize her way out of the orphanage and to New York City. While the reader did a good job on the voices, I found Molly as a character rather unappealing.
