The Doldrums by Nicholas Gannon
3.0

I would have liked more talking taxidermy and adventure. I felt the middle was a bit soggy, although I adored Adelaide. (More disability in our kid's books, please!) I wish the parents were a little more present and accountable - my biggest disappointment was the parental reactions at the end.
