Reviews

Very fast paced and plot driven. There's very little character development too. The concept is still interesting, but I think more details need fleshed out (such as the peace agreement between the two tribes at the end of the book).

High Interest, Low Vocabulary book

Still loving the simple but gorgeous art. Storyline is so important and it’s getting better.
