Really nice

I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to other people but it if you want to read a big story then I wouldn't recommend.

Sometimes, a fun break from the seriousness of life and fiction is needed, and this book offered that fun getaway. The illustrations are as delightful as the excuses, of which a few perhaps felt partly familiar! ;-)

Reflections and lessons learned/the content of this book made me feel…

…that sometimes the fun is in the cliche! Simple and sweet, and a series that I’m looking forward to working through
