Some genuine laugh out loud moments, good comedy writing buy tails off a bit in the last third

Delightfully absurd. The animal sounds really add a certain something to the experience of this audio adaptation. The characters are all so strange and colorful. And with her plucky personality, Flora manages to transform the farm and help all the Starkadders to reinvent their dreary lives.

Far funnier that I expected it to be! I hadn’t heard of this book before picking it up on a shelf from the library, but I’m so glad that I did, the absolute melodrama of the people in the farm compared to flora’s ‘well let’s get it done!’ attitude is so stark and makes said melodrama stand out even more. Will probably be watching the movie later on
