You will notice that I try not to give reviews that are of any length or go into much of the story. I usually read books because of recommendations from other people. IF I read a review, I read the shortest one I can find or just a few paragraphs of a long review. I like to use our wonderful public library's summary of a book, it's short and to the point. As my grandson and I say at the end of each book, "YAY BOOKS" and then we clap and holler like Kermit the Frog.
