Little Kid Reaction:
The book was okay for the most part. It seemed interesting at first, but I was just not that interested in it and it got old.

Big Kid Reaction:
This is a clever book. There is a lot of text and images that could be overwhelming for reluctant readers, but the illustrations are detailed enough that you can "read" the story just by following the pictures.

Pros:
This is a highly developed graphic novel that also can be used as a wordless book. The magical journey and word banter will appeal to teen readers, particularly boys.
Cons:
There is a lot jammed on a page and the colors are dark.
