I’m in disbelief as to how much world building and character depth T. Kingfisher accomplished in a little over 100 pages. I felt for Toadling, I missed her family, despaired for the queen, and was endeared by Halim. The climax felt rushed, but aren't most fairytales the same? 

I would have been happy to continue reading Toadling’s journey past the end of the story.
