While this story was originally difficult for me to lose myself in, the characters did grow on me over time. I would love an entire novel dedicated to Sings-to-Trees and his adventures as a rehabilitator for all creatures. The goblins were amusing and had interestingly developed behaviors and mannerisms. This was a book that felt longer than it was, but overall ended enjoyable.
