It seems the cover recommends fun and adventure during the read of this book. I loved the first part and can see why any young person would be drawn to this. The characters are vibrant and charismatic and the plot can easily be followed.not my usual sort of book but a one I can see a young person drawn to. The story unfolds with sparkle and adventure just as it should it captures the true spirit of adventure and intrigue that will hold the attention of the reader. Fabulous little book and characters are intriguing great genre for the younger readers and a good story with magic and lovely plot a bit too far with some characters but can be believable to the reader if they are really into this type of book written with the age group in mind and the series of events that follow through the chapters are a good way to get the imagination flowing! Liked it!
