What I liked about this book was that it was a realistic magical adventure. It made me think that this story could actually have happened. I also liked the kids. The kids worked well together but also, acted like siblings. This book is good because it has rich storyline, is full of magic, and has me waiting for the next book in the series! I disliked nothing but that the second book wasnt sent with the first. Hope you all get a chance to read and experience this wonderful book.
