I quite liked this one. I just felt that the author wasn’t fully aware that very few children who read middle grade (the intended audience for this book) know details of Ann of Green Gables or The Little Princess. The end isn’t felt rushed and sloppy, like something you’d do when you’ve been doing something forever and you just want to be done with it. I personally feel it would have been better on a cliffhanger, continued in the rest of the series. Nevertheless, I will continue it read the series.
Graphic: Grief and Abandonment
Moderate: Kidnapping
