This book was enjoyable. I haven't read any of Dean Atta's books before so I went in with new eyes! This book didn't disappoint. I love how the book was written and it is so obviously different from any other style of story telling! I love the poems that aren't included in the normal stories and I love the drawings! The characters are so beautiful and I fell in love with all of them! Fin's accent made it very difficult to read sometimes but it is fine haha! Got used to it!
