no edit summary
The unfinished manuscript of this story was found among Eva Ibbotson's papers after her death, and it was completed by her son. But there is no need to worry that this might have in any way compromised the quality of the book. Her trademark humour, her love of nature and her magical imagination are all there, and after an amusing start the plot moves at a cracking pace to its exciting, hair-raising conclusion. Boys and girls alike will love its oddball humour, and while the book does convey a clear message about respecting those who are not the same as us, it is never preachy or heavy-handed. It is, in short, a wonderful book which will be read with great pleasure, and then reread. No author could ask for more.
Another Ibbotson road trip that will have you alternately laughing and crying is [[One Dog And His Boy by Eva Ibbotson and Sharon Rentta|One Dog and His Boy]]. It comes very highly recommended by Bookbag. We also have a review of [[Magic Flutes by Eva Ibbotson]].
