* Loved it, wish I had read it as a child.
* Eh, not loving the god bits and the Disney fairytale lesson but I doubt I would've cared as a child.
* Reading the foreword was illuminating. Because while I had heard great things about this book and knew it was a classic—no lie—I couldn't be bothered to look it up. First, it was I just thought I missed the age range when I was a teen. Then I was distracted by all the books. When it finally gifted it's way onto by bookshelf, I finally had to admit how apprehensive I was due to bad experience with other classics. Since I've been struggling to review anything lately, I finally said "screw it". I figured worst case scenario I'd "forget" about reviewing it.

That sure shows me!
