It looked like Mr. Beiderman was breathing happiness into his body.
I was not aware that this book is basically a advent calendar book. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it even though Christmas is still far away.
The family bond is very strong and I adored every character.
The slightly deeper topics where discussed in a very sensible way for the younger demographic.
It was a good beginning and I’m excited to follow this cast in another adventure.
If you enjoyed books like The Penderwicks, I think you would also enjoy this novel

An absolutely delightful middle grade read. This warmed my heart. I read it cover to cover and then immediately grabbed an ebook of the sequel so I could read more of these rambunctious and smart kids. This story is bursting with personality and I think I’ll read it again and again.
Moderate: Grief and Child death
Also death of spouse.
