This was a really cute, cosy read. It triggered my imagination and I loved every second of reading this wholesome book.

It seems like several fables in one book. I found the beginning of the book and the end wonderful. The presentation of the characters, their fears, their strengths and their adventures are entertaining, endearing and I found it an emotional and exciting road trip.
Reading this book has been like reading Beatrix Potter, as if her spirit was in the characters of this peculiar place, so inhospitable at times....
This story is full of values and even if you don't see them, because sometimes beauty is invisible to the eyes, you will see them in conversations, in metaphors...
At the beginning, it threw me off and I didn't know what the story was going to be about, and I really didn't. That beginning together with the end are rounded.

Pd. I couldn't choose just one character, they are all so different, they have their own particularities and they are so... I would take them all home.
A story for children and for adults.

I loved the cover and loved this well written book that surprised me. It's well plotted, good world building and character development.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher for this arc, all opinions are mine

A charming story about friends who have enough differences to make for a fun story for kids, and it also contains life lessons.

Parents, you want this book for your kids this Christmas.

I only removed one star, because even for a childrens book, a bit more personality differences among some of the (substantially numbered) characters, could improve the book.
