Waterstones Customer Review
An enchanting story that holds your hand and encourages guessing about what the children are going to imagine next, all beautifully illustrated with lots of lovely little asides on each page. A story about imagination and potential that can come from the unknown, but also about friendship, blended families, and nature.
