I decided to listen to this as an audiobook and I’m honestly glad I did. It was a sweet story and I love the relationship Elsa had with Granny. Everyone should get to experience that kind of relationship. However, as a story told through the mind of an almost 8 year old, it was a little bit hard for me to follow. I would recommend this one though!

A very sweet and relatively light-hearted book. The narrator being a child added a fun adventurous dimension. The last quarter or so is when it really picks up and becomes harder to put down. I would recommend to a friend :)
