Ratings and reviews

Awesome book very imaginative fun read from start to end wish the book was a little longer and had some better character development for some of the side characters. If you need something to take your mind off of things and I want something to dark I can definitely suggest this book.

Enjoyed this with my sons because I can't do voices. a proper family classic, this is.

I don't understand why this production was made and performed in the UK but the finished product is not available
