While I personally am not a fan for allegorical fantasy discrimination, I have to admit that this is the exception that proves the rule. Every character is perfect and lovable. As someone who wants to foster children one day, this book was extremely touching.

I've been reading so many adult fantasy/academic/long series books, it was a breath of fresh air to read a stand alone book with a surprising amount of introspection. Such a delightful book!

I loved this book.
The characters are the absolute best. I just want to hug the kids and Arthur and Zoe in so many parts of the book! I laughed out loud, teared up, and even felt angry with the characters. This book is so incredibly important and so well done. Highly recommend.
Now I just need to figure out what to do with myself now that I am done reading it...
