Lisa Doan

What a completely charming and fun book! I don't think I've enjoyed a middle-grade book to this extent in a long while. I adored Henry, who was intelligent and polite and determined, just like any good MG protagonist should be. The cast of characters were a delight, though they tended to be a bit one-dimensional at times. The plot was great - it moved along at a fast clip and everything fit neatly together in the end. Those who are familiar with literary plot devices won't be shocked at any of the plot twists, but they were still satisfying.

Children are sure to love this book, and their parents should as well.
