Independent Review 'I bought this book for my niece but decided to read it first myself. Fabulous. It is very easy to get into and start reading; not too much description that might tire a reluctant reader and truly captivating. One of the main characters, the shopkeeper could have come out of Harry Potter or even Paddington Bear. It is a child's version of a real page turner and with a hint at the end of more adventures to come. Marvellous.'
