This was so good! I love the whimsy and there’s also some informational things throughout so kids are learning as they read. It’s really nice seeing Black characters in this magical world and the hair braiding scene was really #fortheculture, I love it! This would be a perfect book for kids who love The Magic Treehouse series.
