Now, I'm not dragging the book for being children's literature (I wouldn't be pleasant company if I made the habit of that), but even as children's literature, it fails to engage and just doesn't understand the age group it's going for.
For example, there are some pretty wordy passages here, like "legate, boughs, clitter," and "espied"; words that no child would ever know. And, by the time you do learn those words, the book starts to sound patronizing. Like, do you seriously have to sell that giants are real? Everybody knows by now that they are, who are they trying to convince?
In short, I wish that the book could've been better. I'm sad, mad, but worst of all, disappointed (◕︵◕) ( )
