Such a joy to read that I read it all in one sitting. Magical, whimsical, with great depth and creativity. I adored this book. It is written in a simple style accessible to children but also has so much magic in its prose that anyone could enjoy it. The words flow together so nicely and the story unfolds at a very good pace and rhythm. It's very, very well done.
