The setting really does all the work here, because its vibrancy and complexity is brought to life in the wonderful pictures that make this such a memorable read all these years later. The artful premise and the incorporation of the characters into real entertainment history is so well-done and makes everything feel so much more magical! Spoil your child with this one, what a great read
