Though this book is intended for children I was very much intrigued by the concept of the story. It made for a nice, quick, delightful read for me and i found myself thoroughly wishing the story would continue long after i finished it.

I think this would be a great book for any middle school teacher to share with kids. It has a great opportunity to teach.

This was a cute book for kids ranging from 8-12. I would give it a higher rating if I was that age. As far as an adult reading this book, I had to give it a 3. It had a great premise, but everything seemed to wrap up too nicely and too predictably for me. As I said, kids will like it, adults not so much. Funny thing is, I don't always feel this way about middle grade books. Some of them I really enjoy. This book will be going into my class library at school.
