I would definitely love reading this if I were middle grade reader. It has adventure, friendship and solving a mystery!

Like a lot of reviewers, I feel like the story was just okay, and while I can usually suspend my disbelief for many books about witches and the supernatural, I feel like this one might be toeing the line of truth vs. fiction. I also felt like there were some elements about the story that were jarringly out of place for a title aimed at kids (the big one is the resolution to the main story, so I won't mention it here) and it feels very out of place.
I gave it two stars because I didn't outright hate it, but it I really only finished it because it was a quick read.

This is a cute story about a girl who can communicate with animals.
I love dogs and cats, so I enjoyed this story. Cassandra has a special power that lets her communicate with animals. This includes an ability to reach out with her mind to find a lost cat.
There were some great tips throughout the book on how to treat pets. There was a section at the end about Cassandra’s pet dog and how she trained her and looks after her. This would be great for kids with pets.
I didn’t like the way the story about the lost cat turned out. There was a twist involving the person who sent them a ransom note for the cat, but it was very strange. I wish it had a better conclusion.
Overall, I liked this book and I’d like to see what happens in the rest of the series.
