Charming. Lovely to revisit as an adult.

A very sweet & compassionate story told through the eyes of children. After losing her Nana and almost becoming a Silk herself Layla truly wants someone special of her very own to take to school for Senior Citizen Day; we accompany her through a lovely (& sometimes sad*) tale of her doing just that.

*Who am I kidding, I bawled my eyes out.

• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes

I would love to live in the Kingdom of Silk: keeping bees, baking my own bread, enjoying outdoor brunches with soft-boiled eggs (that are wearing knitted caps to keep them warm, of course). So simple and so lovely.

Absolutely adorable. Love this series. A word of advice, read them in order for the full emotional effect. The later books will spoil the first.
