So far all of the ‘before the story’ chapter books are very entertaining. This one introduced meeko, flit, and grandmother willow in a thoughtful and sweet way! It also had a great message - to listen to your parents advice AND to not judge someone you don’t know. I really enjoyed this one!!

These books are the sweetest reads for the younger set of heroine lovers! I love adding these to our Little Free Library and seeing all the smiles when they are discovered! Thanks for sending an ARC our way, Disney Books--it is well-loved! <3
