Likeable little kids book. The constant hammering on about God loving you was a bit cringe but it only mildly put me off what is still an incredibly endearing and lushly-imagined tale for the ages.

kvbixal's review against another edition

DID NOT FINISH: 15%

It's a full cast LibriVox "dramatic reading"  Some of the narrators are okay, but others are absolutely awful; I just couldn't listen to them any more.  Will find another version to read/listen to.
