I'm finding lighter stories are much easier to audiobook than something I really have to pay attention to and remember important details. This was a cute, magical found family story with interesting characters and British children swearing. Heavy handed with the inclusion of tropes (grumpy/sunshine, 'we are made of stardust', and yeah, the found family), but it was still really heartfelt and I loved the irregular structure of their family as opposed to straight nuclear. Ian, Ken, and Lucy were so important to me.
