I read this book not expecting to get much out of it. I was wrong this is one of the best books i've read in a long time. I would recomend this book to any one wanting to read a short but great book.

Stories that make put you into thoughts of wonder. Quirky - my love also picked it up and enjoyed it. Not an easy read for children but maybe teens
