Book Review:

The book was very satisfying. It was illustrated in full colour and was easy to understand. The storyline was very good and has a fair share of moral values. I enjoyed the book very much and I would reccomend it to anyone who likes to read good books. I give a two-thumbs-up for this wonderful book!
