This story was soft and sweet and followed the tale of a older brother telling a story to his sister. I loved how Gabriel liked to describe things as being nice and sweet (especially with iced cream) and thought it was interesting how he changed his tale to add a little dash of fear but also still keep the tale from ending ‘badly’.

This is a children's book about a boy who doesn't want to tell a story where anything bad happens. The illustrations are cute as is the premise of the book. I found the dialogue between the boy and his sister to be confusing at times. It's not a book I would reach for to read to my kids, because I think it would be somewhat hard to understand the premise of the dialogue for kids under 8 or so.
