Had to read for school There are few books I read for school that I don't partially enjoy. This was the first exception. I hated this book! The character of the daughter is bratty and a control freak, while the grandfather seems to be to the daughter nothing more than a remembrance of the good old. My 5 year old loved this book My 5 year old was excited for me to read a few more chapters to her each night. She followed every detail of the story. The characters don't have the most cheerful outlook on life, so I docked it a star.. great Fast delivery, great item
