one of my favorite childhood reads

[Brindi Michele · Rating 3 out of 5]

The narration really kept my attention and helped me enjoy this story more than I thought I would. A fun adventure younger ears would like.

I have fond memories of this book, but don't remember much about it, except that it's based on Balinese folk tales. I plan to reread it.

I met the author once, at SF in SF, a few months before she passed away. She was going to sign my copy, but.... Too late.
