Very good book!

[Rylie Smedley · Rating 3 out of 5]

I found this in my brothers room and he told me he had bought it in second grade and had never read it because it had been above his reading skill at the time. I read the summary and was interested.

The book is a very good telling of a story I had never heard. There some really beautiful lines and imagery throughout. It was very enjoyable (though definitely above a 2nd grade reading level haha).

[Marta Pelrine-Bacon]

A compelling story with beautiful lines.
