Review
First of all, can I just say how much I love the cover art. It's vibrant and perfect for this book and age range.
As an avid reader who already has kids who are following in my footsteps, I can really get behind this books message.
There isn't a whole lot of action or adventure, more of a basic Middle-Grade read, but I think in that aspect it does very well.
Solid writing that is easy to follow with illustrations along the way that are wonderfully done.
