4.0

3 stars for the written content, 5 for the illustrations, averaging my rating out to 4.  My favourite part of The Land Of Stone Flowers are the illustrations: they are beautiful, intricate, and charming.  I enjoyed much of the text, and I really like the concept, though I did find it a bit uneven -- some portions of the text were hilarious, while others fell a bit flat for me.
