Review :
Mahy's words are as deeply satisfying as freshly-baked cakes Mahy's words are as deeply satisfying as freshly-baked cakes A good book to get children's imaginations flowing. A good book to get children's imaginations flowing. I loved all the thoughtful details that had been put into the story. Everywhere you looked there was a whole world built. Little details, reections, shadows, the tree that became a doorway. It was all imagined for you completely. A real highlight.
