My 6 year old son was home sick, and we read this book together in one day. As with all the other books in the Fairy Animals of Misty Wood series, this was a pleasant story about there being a (minor) problem that needs to be solved, and the animals work together to figure it out. Additionally, we both love the line drawing illustrations, and my son likes to refer to the map on the opening pages when the story mentions moving to different parts of the Misty Woods. I absolutely recommend this book and others in the series for new readers that are looking for pleasant, appropriate chapter books.
