What a wonderful story time book. I loved the imagination bubbles!
Andrea D, Educator
This is a super cute little book that would be a fun read aloud to kids of all ages. The build up of the story is creative and the illustrations are adorable. I just don't understand the ending. It is set up to be a cautionary tale however the end just doesn't make sense in that aspect. If the ending was reworked to make more sense then this would be a solid 5 star book. All in all I don't think children would mind the title not reflecting the ending so still a good book.
