Tracey Baptistels work belongs on classroom shelves and in readers’ hands. There is much to appreciate in this book — imagination, enjoyable characters, and page-turning storytelling.

So much fun and excitement. I enjoy the world mythologies and the differences in world view. Tracey Baptiste is an excellent writer and makes it interesting for all ages.

I am so thankful for a book that focuses on the Trini and Caribbean experience from the perspective of kids. I put this in the Rick Riordan type of category and could imaging students in my classes who would really connect with the characters. The dynamic between the cousins, the sound of the steel pan and the magic of Wonky kept me engaged and smiling while I read. Plus, I appreciated the underlying themes and messages.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for letting me review this book. I’ve enjoyed all the various myths and have enjoyed reading about other myths and folk tales. I like how Misty stays true and makes the spirit realize it’s not alone even if it thinks it is cause it thinks people have forgotten.
